MAIN t RIVERSIDE
signed by Josephine county
sportsmen have been sent to the
commission offices in Portland
and to Gov. Douglas McKay at
Salem charging that the state
agency s new punch-card tag sys
tem and the 10 fish limit will
"ruin fishing in southern Ore
gon.
State fishing laws for 1990
specify that anglers take no
more than ten zu-inch steelhead
or salmon before August 18,
Fishermen here contend this
rule eliminates the angler who
catches his limit in January from
the spring run and from fishing
in his home state streams for sal
mon or steelhead until six and a
half months after the Initial
catch,
Many of the amateur rod and
reel enthusiasts are critical of
the new tag system which re
quires them to punch a score
card ammediately after landing
a fish, subject to a warning or
fine if. the angler neglects to do
so and is apprehended by a law
enforcement officer.
If the angler forgets to carry
his punch card with his license;
if he loses the special tags pro
vided by the commission for
marking freshly caught fish: or
if he neglects to tag his catch
properly, he is, local fishermen
say, subject to arrest and may
be reprimanded or fined by the
fish and game warden
south-central Alaska where
every old sourdough was his
friend.
Was Boom Town
Denali was a boom town
when Campbell arrived there in
the earlv 1920s. At the time, he
was a husky prospector search
ing for an Eldorado in this rip-
roaring mining country,
As the mines closed, the town
declined until Campbell was the
only white resident left,
For more than 10 years, the
post office served the area, but
unally even uncle bam got wise
and wiped Denali off the map.
Campbell, in love with the re
mote region, remained there
searching for his eldorado win
ter and summer. He had been
in ailing health in recent years,
but all attempts to convince him
he should leave the crumbling
cabins of Denali were in vain.
Bush-Pilot Bert Rich, carry
Ing supplies for the old prospec
tor, located him in a cabin on
Valdez creek. When Rich enter
ed the cabin, he found Campbell
lying dead on the floor, wearing
heavy fur clothing, and his boots.
His dog team lay dead outside
starved to death. The only living
creature in the cabin was a black
sled dog which had been living
on food it broke Into after its
master died.
A United States commissioner
today was en route to Denali to
hold an inquest and bring tne
body back.

Mild Winter Boon
To Livestock In
Western States
Denver, Mar. 10 U.R) One
of the mildest winters in many
years was a boon to livestock in
most western states during the
first two months of 1950, the
U. S. department of agriculture
reported today.
A March 7 blizzard was hard
on livestock in North and South
Dakota and Nebraska, the de
partment said, but otherwise cat
tle and sheep and western range
lambs were in better shape than
usual for this time of the year.
Feed Situation Good
The feed situation was good to
very good in a large area stretch
ing from northern Nebraska and
central Wyoming to the border
of Mexico, although some dry
spots were reported in eastern
Colorado, southwestern Kansas,
northwestern Oklahoma and
northwestern and West Texas,
and in New Mexico.
Range conditions were report
ed fairly good in Wyoming, Utah
and Nevada, and poor to fair in
Montana, the Dakotas, Oregon,
Washington and Idaho.
Cattle in most of the great
plains states were reported in
good condition for winter
months, but in Montana, North
Dakota and Oregon they were
only poor to fair.
Texas renorted the condition
of sheep In that state as of March
l was me oesi in iv years,
the sheep outlook generally was
good except in Montana, Wash
ington, Idaho, and Oregon,
British Labor Draft
Ends This Week-End
London, Mar. 10 U.P.) Min
ister of Labor George Isaacs
announced in commons last night
that Britain's labor draft would
end this week-end, thus permit
ting workers to take jobs of their
choice.
Isaacs said the draft would be
ended because Britain's essen
tial industries have had ample
manpower for the past six
months without use of the gov
ernment's draft powers.
The draft, known officially as
the "control of engagement or
der," originally was Installed
during wartime. It permitted the
government to shift workers
from one Job to another.
In August, 1947, the draft was
relmposed to keep Britain's ex
port industries fully manned,
but it has seldom been used since
then because of its unpopularity.

tham was concerned when a
duckling on his farm parked on
a hickory limb and refused to
go near the water.
The trouble, he found out, was
that the duck had been born

Leytham decided to help and

After several guided lessons
