airae Commnssoiioi. raws Hip TenoMive Mes For 12)55 Regular buck deer hunting season In five south western Ore gon counties and part of a sixth will be October 1 to 23, in elusive, and mourning dove hunting in Jackson county will not be permitted this year, if tentative regulations drawn up by the Oregon State Game Com mission in Portland on Friday are adopted as final. The tentative 1955 hunting regulations contain provisions for "liberal" deer and elk sea sons to help alleviate overpop ulation in some areas of the state. Game commissioners at a pub lic hearing Friday heard reports from ranchers and foresters that huge deer herds were ser iously damaging crops and for aging on young growth at sev eral tree farms. The tentative deer seasons ex tend from Oct. 1 to 23 with bag limit of one deer of either sex in most counties during the last nine days of the season. In addition, nine controlled deer seasons were proposed to treat "specific problem areas." The three week's long general der season applies to Jackson, Josephine, Coos, Curry, Douglas counties and the part of Klamath county west of Highway 97. Gen eral season in the rest of the state would be October 1 to 14 with either sex shooting Octo ber 15 to 23 for hunters who still have tags. "Spike" Deer Hunting While nimrods in western Oregon would be allowed to shoot one deer with forked horns, or better, the tentative rules would permit killing of "spike" deer, for the first time In many years, in the area of the state east of Highway 97. Bag limit in the east part of Oregon would be one deer with -visible" antlers. Killing of spike deer was ap proved for eastern Oregon be cause of the heavy deer popula tion there, Commisisoner Ken neth G. Denman, Medford, re ported Saturday on return from the Portland session. He stated that most of the one-year old mule deer have forked horns. However, Denman said, game men don't feel that the black tall population west of Highway 87 can stand heavy kill in the younger ages. While hunter's choice season generally is proposed October 15 to 23, only either sex deer hunt ing in Jackson county would be September 24 to 27 in a narrow strip along Rogue river. That lulling will be "controlled." , Specified " area is between Shady Cove bridge and Roberts bridge below Grants Pass and extending two miles each side of the river, the same as last year. Tributaries are excluded. A total of 1,000 permits will be Issued to persons holding deer tags. If more than tthat number of applications are re ceived by the deadline (not yet act), drawing will be held. Damage Reported Game biologists don't feel the either sex hunting is needed in ether parts of the two counties but a lot of damage reports have been received from farmers in the specified area. The early date of the hunters' choice sea son la expected to accomplish the purpose of controlling Just the residential or marauding deer. Migrating deer from the higher mountains won't have reached the area by that time. In western Oregon' where either sex harvest would be Oc tober 15 to 23, allowed deer would have to be killed within a mile of agricultural areas, the same as last year. The areas will be defined and detailed in .the game department's synopsis. Business of the Game Com mission, following the hearing, included the setting of antelope, elk, archery, pheasant and hunt er's choice deer and elk seasons. Commissioners will convene again on Friday, July 22, for another public hearing. After the hearing they will set final regulations. Commissioners in their tenta tive regulations acted to prohibit mourning dove shooting in Jack son county for- two main rea- . sons. One was complaints from farmers that they have to po lice their property, for lVfc months after September 1. The other is the difficulty in prevent - ing hun-ters from killing pheasants during the dove sea son. Cascade Elk Season General elk season for the coastal area is planned for Octo ber 29 to November 13 with a bag limit of one bull with three or more points. Season in -the Cascade area and northeast Ore gon would be October 29 to No vember 23. - Bag limit for the northeast. area, where their are more elk, would be one bull with antlers. In the Cascade area the one bull allowed must have three or more points. Controlled elk seasons are projected for 16 areas. Because of the limited num ber of animals, commissioners left the antelope season the same as last year. Dates are August 27 to 31. There would be three areas with a drawing for 200 permits for each area. In the tentative plans, pheasant season throughout the state was dated for October 22 to November 13 and the bag limit was set at four cocks per day and not more than 12 in possession. Only two weeks of hunting were permitted west of the Cascades and in Klamath county last year and in western Oregon the 1954 bag was only four, cocks per day. In Malheur county north of the south line of Township 26 a daily limit of three cocks and one hen would be allowed for November 10, 11, 12 and 13 with not. more than four 'hens in possession. The over all four cock limit for pheasants was agreed after biologists reported that roosters were not being cropped in suf ficient quantity. It is felt that the change will not make any appreciable difference in the over-all kill. Archery Season The commission listed 'eight archery hunting areas and sea sons for hunting deer of elk with long bow and barbless arrow. They were: Canyon Creek, Grant county, Sept. 10 to Oct 23: Hart Mountain. Sept. S Sept. 18; Mt. Emily, Union and Umatilla counties, Sept. . 10 Sent. 29: Baker county. Sept. to Sept. 29; White River, Wasco and Hood River counties, Sept. 10 to Sent. 29: Table Rock, Jackson county, Sept. 10 to Sept 29: Tillamook Burn. Oct. 1 Oct. 14; McDonald Forest, Ben ton Countv, Oct. 1. 2. 8 and 9. In deciding to let archers shoot elk, the commission set minimum 50-pound pull hnwi. Bow hunters will not be re- miired to have nermits this year. They have not been serving their purpose and something new is being devised lor next year Denman reported. for HUIfWUBWiUDVnB SIPdMTrS Southern Oregon Golf Tourney Men's Entries Limited to 192; Filing Deadline on August 27 Men's entries in Rogue Valley Country club's always popular Southern Oregon Golf tourna ment will be limited to 192 this year committeemen have an nounced.

The "big league" opponents Moyer is currently dickering with are Kid Gavilan, former welterweight champion; tough Tiger Jones; Sugar Ray Robin son, the comeback kid, and Rocky Castellani, TV tyro. Moyer anticipates the 10- round, non-title bout agreed to by Olson and his manager Sid Flaherty will be the best ever witnessed in Portland.

"This fight will be a battle all the way. Olson's a busy fight er and gives fans their money's worth all the way," he added.
