SHUMWAY SACRAMENTO (UPI) As semblywoman Pauline L. Davis wauls to Hud out if the sportsmen of California are happy with pro grams of the state Department of l'Yih and Game. The Portola democrat has an nounced that her committee on fish and game will conduct a hear ing in Sacramento January 18-10 to analyze the department s fi nancial status and its current level bf service and programs. "The purpose of this hearing." Mrs. Davis said. ,-Is to afford the sportsmen of the state the li cense buying public an op portunity to say whether they arc content with the current level of programming and the returns they receive. . ." She added that she also will look hito what areas of the dc parlmeut's work might be expand ed and what ones might require cutbacks. After all, she said, "It is (the sportsmen's) program and it is their decision." At the same time, Mrs. Davis furnished a report' to newsmen in dicating that of the 10 million dol lars (lie department spends each year, nearly 14 per cent goes for administration. Using 1H57-58 as an example, she said the administration costs for all five fish and game regions, headquarters operations and the commission totaled Sl.5i5.000 or 11.8 per cent of the entire depart mcnt expenditure. During the same period, she said, the raised trout program cost was estimated at $1.9!2.133 or 18.7 per cent of the department's total ex pendilure ulthough estimated rev enues from the sale of licenses to support the program totaled $733,048 only 7.5 per cent of the department's total income. During the same fiscal year the raised pheasant program, she said, was estimated to cost $587,772 but income supiwrting the program totaled $;I7.77G. Said Mrs. Davis: "These are but three examples of what current programs and services are cost ing Uie sportsmen of California." It is up to the sportsmen to decide, she said, what level of service and programs the state can afford financially and whether they can afford another increase in license fees. Under a bill introduced in the 1P59 Legislature by Mrs. Davis the department has made its first report on a new "cost accounting" system. That system makes it pos sible for the agency to figure out where each dollar goes. Just before he left as head of the department, William E. Warne made public the breakdown of costs for July, August and Sep tember of the current fiscal year. But Warne was careful to say that since the report only covers one-fourth of the year and since work loads in fish and game fluctuate from season to season "this, particular report cannot be used as the base for judging the entire year." The first (ull-vear report will be made after next June 30, the end of the fiscal year. Warne reported expenditure of $2,275,260 in 10 major programs during the three-month period. ine oiggesi cnunK was lor s;ame management at $575,412, including ?ilb.3Hl in federal funds. The next biegest amount was for wildlife protection, $.563,211 all from state funds. Inland Fisheries expenditures were $4(i(i,407 and Marine Resourc es $2).218. Administration costs were $159,082, or seven per cent ol the total expenditures. Warne said this indicated that the department was being "ef ficiently operated and adminis tered" and added that he took pride in the fact that "a pro gram of this size and complex ify can be administered for only even er cent of the total cost." The department figures also showed that the catchable trout program in the state cost $348,704 during the three month period. 15.3 per cent of the total department expenses for the period. The cost of the pheasant rear ing and planting program for the same period was $78,7863.5 per cent of the total budget. EMBARRASSED CASUALTY MADISON, Wis. (UPI) John Frahm, a University of Wisconsin sophomore, recently broke a bone in his foot and, naturally, he's re luctant to tell how it happened. But the fact is that John fell while wearing a pair of women's high heeled pumps. And the explanation is that he was rehearsing for a college production of "Du Barry Was A Lady." HEADACHES KF.W YORK (UPI) Many American men stationed for months in the Antarctic during the recent tnternnlinnal GeODllVSical Year suffered from constant headaches, according to Capt. Charles S. Mul lin Jr. Medical officers believe the headaches were an emotional reac tion to the realization that feelings of aggression and hostility had to be controlled because of the close quarters. HE BUYS THE BUGGY ANN ARBOR, Mich. (UPI) Women take a back seat when it comes to purchasing automobiles. A nationwide survey by the Uni versity of Michigan showed that most cars are bought by husbands and almost never by wives alone. Decisions to purchase household goods, however, are made either by wives alone or wives with their husbands.
