In Portland about tan dayi ago
and have arranged to have a
aurvay ol the problem, In
corporating all tha angles,
made balora deciding whether
anything can leatlbly ba

In tha aurvay.
Tha migratory herd, esti
mated at 12,000-15,000 deer,
eummera In tha high ground
of Fremont toreat, roughly In
tha area between Lakevlew
on tha eait and Bly on tha
watt and up to tha lower and
ol Bummer lake on tha north,
there during tha Oregon ehoot
Ing eeason.
Than, eolncldant with a
hardly-perceptible drop in
temperature, which brlngi tha
llret frosty nlghti In mid
October, tha hard drifts south
and iouthweit. down across
tha border into the country
eait and louth ol Claar lake
In Modoe forest and north ol
Alturai. The traniltlon takaa
two to three monthi.
Tha deer generally follow
well-defined Ianei in moving
aouth, lanei near Eaet Yooum
valley, Wildhorte creek. Four
mile creek and McColn craek,
passing between Oooie lake
below Lakevlew on the east
and Clear lake In California
on tha wait. From the north
ern to tha aouthern extremi
ties of the range tha drift li
over 100 miles.
In the California winter
'area tha forage problem is the
worst and it Is at that range
the projected survey will be
aimed. It's there that deer die
of starvation, or at best lose ,
' much of the fat they put on
during the summer months in
Oregon. The vegetation, pon
dorosa pine, blttorbruih and
tunlper, is already overtaxed
iy the estimated 30.000 native '
California deer plus tha cat
tle and sheep on the range,
and the added Oregon migra
tory hard makes feeding a
serious problem for all the
animals, wild and domesticat
ed alike.
To the cattleman lorage la.
a natural resource. Just tha
same as a forest is a natural
resource to a lumberman, and
the encroachment by tha deer
herds pays unfavorable divi
dends In underfed livestock.
For the sportsman's angle,
turn that statement around.
At tha Portland meeting
elements of a brewing battle
ware evidenced by John Mo
Keen, Oregon big gama man
ager, who suggested "Take all
cattle and game off tha range
until the forage ia rehabili
tated." A sheepman represen
tative countered with the pro
position that sheepmen would
oppose cutting tha number of
sheep on the range unless tha
number of deer was cut, and
a California gama man assert
ed that removal of all live
stock was tha most feasible
plan.
So tha survey la to ba made,
ungarnished facts laid out and
the decision of what to do
lait to the Oregon and Cali
fornia gama commissions.

Lillard Beating The Bush
For Different Referee
After his highly successful
skirmish with the Grey Mask
lust week It wasn't hard to per
suade Kouuh Rufus Jones to
agree for a return match with
the old master, the tiff to neaa
llne this Friday's grapple card.
Jones, enthusiastic over his
loss on a technicality last time.
stipulated only that another re
feree would nave to De louna.
Rufus now has Wally Moss and
Norval Stockstill on his "refer
ees I don't like" list.
For b while during Saturday's
deliberations it looked as though
tho two battlers would agree for
a fight with tho referee judging
from outs do tno ring, dui tne
Mask flnully refused to go that
far. It was Rufus' idea to have
the middleman stay outside the
ropes until a fall was completed
or an illegal hold clamped.
But Mr. Stoneface got to
thinking about how near Jones
came to unlacing his mask last
Friday night without the formal
ity of beating him, and vetoed
the suggestion.
So now Promoter Mack Lil
lard is beating the brush for a
referee.
The other bouts lined up for
Friday include another Belcas
tro showing, this time with
