Robert Layman Home on Leave Game Commission To Hold Hearing On Shooting Hours Oregon waterfowl hunters are advised that the Game Com mission will hold a public hear ing at its Portland headquart ers at 10 a. m., October 15, for the purpose of modifying the shooting hours in Lake and Klamath counties for the open ing of the upland game bird and waterfowl season on Octo ber 19. The proposed modification would change the October 19 opening hour from 8 a. m. to one-half hour before sunrise. The change would then con form to the shooting hours se lected by the California De partment of Fish and Game for the area immediately adjacent to the Klamath and Lake coun ty areas. The fall hunting seasons are here. Gig game, upland game birds, waterfowl—all will be le gal targets for the hunters’ guns during the next several months. And for this array of game species, well over 400,000 hunt ers will be in the out-of-doors to enjoy the seasons to come. Phil Schneider, state game director, extended his wishes for the best of success to this army of hunters but urged all outdoorsmen to observe the highest standards of hunting ethics in their quest for game. “We cannot condone un sportsmanlike conduct.” Schnei der said, “if we are to continue to enjoy the hunting privileges long traditional in Oregon.” He advised hunters to watch their outdoor manners as insurance to continued public hunting. Game is the property of the state, Schneider advised, but many of the hunting areas are on private property. Hunting on such property is a privilege and not a right, and this privi lege can be withdrawn by the landowner. A hunting license does not authorize trespass on private property. The director urged all hunters to ask the landowner’s permission first. Hunters are also requested to be extremely careful with campfires and smoking while in the fields and forests. "Ore gon hunters have an enviable record,” Schneider noted, and he urged hunters to continue their fine cooperation to min imize the fire danger. In regard to vandalism, the director asked the cooperation of all law-abiding hunters to report or stop any such acts noted. “Pour cooperation is im perative,” Schneider told hunt ers, “if we are to stamp out this undesirable element from our ranks.” As a final word on hunter ethics, Schneider reminded hunters of the Hunter’s Creed —“To be law abiding; respect the rights and property of oth ers; be careful with fire and firearms.” Hunters will be serving their interests by ob serving this pledge.
