favorite big game animal. Excitement was at fever pitch as some
200,000 deer hunters stalked the big mulies east of the Cascades
and the skulking blacktails on the west side. First report at the
Sportsman’s Center was when Kit Richards came in early Sat

town. Hunters east of the mountains found that deer were high
