Edmund G Brown. Assemblyman Augustus F. Haw kins (D-Los Angeles) dropped the measure into the legislative hopper bearing the notation "by request of the governor." Brown's minimum wage plan sets a floor under the salaries of all California workers except dom estic employes; some persons en gaged in educational, charitable religious or nonprofit organiza tional work, and apprentices learn ing a skilled or semiskilled iob. The administration measure is considerably less sweeping than the two labor-backed plans intro duced earlier by Assemblyman Philip Burton (D-San Francisco). One of Burton's bills sets a flat $1.50 minimum wage while the other uses the $1.15 figure favored by Brown, but makes no excep tions. The administration bill is de. signed to cover California workers not now included in the federal minimum wage act, Hawkins ex plained. Employers who violate the law would be subject to a fine of up to $500 and up to six months in jail. KV Dischargee Snaps Other Leg Misfortune had not yet finished with Gordon R.

Mildred Wilkens, Owner 120 Lourol, Mtdford, Or SP 2-I40S F&G Chief Could Be Phil Roedel SACRAMENTO (UPD-Who will be the new director of California' Fish and Game Department? A new name was tossed into the hat today: Phil M. Roedel, 44, marine resources operations man ager of the department at Termin al Island. Gov. Edmund G. Brown said he planned to select a successor for Director Seth Gordon, first hired by Gov. Earl Warren. Brown said Gordon would be out around Feb. 1. But Gordon still is on the job and there's a move afoot to keep him in the director's chair. The move got into high gear this week on two fronts: 1. A sportsmen's roup met with Brown to urge that he keep Gor don. Brown said no but said he still had an open mind on a se lection. 2. The Sacramento Sierra Sports mens Council, consisting of 14 member sportsmens clubs, in structed its leadership to "contin ue all efforts" to get Gordon re tained and said opposition to him "comes from disgruntled indivi duals who sought greater influence or positions in the department. Despite all the support for him Gordon definitely is on his way out. Brown has said he does not plan to back down on his flat statement that the present direc tor will be replaced." . There were four known possibilities.- They - were Lee Payne, Cath edral City weekly newspaper pub lisher and a former member of the commission: , Everett Horn coordinator of the Wildlife Conser vation Board; Harry . Anderson. administrative officer of the de partment, and Henry Clineschmidt, Redding,, a leader in Stcelhead Un limited. Clineschmidt was eliminated from contention Wednesday. He wes picked as a new commission er to replace Weldon Oxley, also ot Redding, who was not a candi date for another term. Behind the scenes activities also have eliminated Horn, who had his principal support from an of ficial of the California Wildlife Federation. In the past week, a number of groups have brought tn the name of Roedel.

Barr, left, both of Mount Shasta, 45 years ago, were presented this week to the Siskiyou County His torical Society. Photo by J. O. McKinney Skis Retired To Museum By J. O. McKINNEY MOUNT SHASTA - A nair ot skis that made early Siskiyou County winter sports history were retired this week to the Siskiyou County Historical Society museum in Yreka. Like most equipment of other days, these skis do not exactly follow the pattern of pres ent day skis. It was 45 years ago when Her man E. Barr, now retired and serving as Mount Shasta city coun cilman, decided that the deep snow should be handled different ly than by just wading through it. He had George Thornton, car penter and bridge builder, make a pair of skis, built on the general plan of . how they .thought skis should be built. The pair turned out were 12 feet long, made . of red fir, with a turned-up nose, and with fittings - to which they could be lashed to a fixed posi tion to boots. They worked well enoueh to make Barr's trips to town more pleasant, but he says he never did wear the skis for pleasure. Only to get somewhere -were they ever tied onto his feet. Last week Joseph Wales, histor ical society member, talked Barr out of the old snow runners, and after a new coating of paint, took them to the museum. When posing for the picture. Barr and Thornton talked over the days in 1914 that they had the idea of skis. Each admit that the $15 paid for the heirlooms in 1914 represented quite a sum of money, out would not go very far today.
