California haa bean growing rap
idly durint the past week, lio
sportsmen's associations, eham
bera of commerce and other civic
roups in both Klamath county
and the Tnlelak district lodging
formal protests.
Principal objection Is that
probably by the time tha Califor
nia season opens and certainly
before Its close migratory birds
will hare already flown south
with the result that shooting will
be at a minimum. Tha objector
point out that Tule lake area la
virtually Identical with tha Klam
ath district, and that hunting eon
dltlons there parallel those In tha
Klamath county rather than those
In more southerly California
shooting grounds.
In a number of cases action has
been taken to request that the L.
8. biological survey include tha
Tule lake country In the Klamath
district, where, along with the
rest of Oregon and other northern
states, the hunting season has
been set for November 1 to SO,
month ahead of the California
season.
Such a request waa reiterated
Wednesday night by the Klamath
rountv council of the Oregon
Wildlife federation, which adop
ted a resolution deploring the late
dates aet by the government for
waterfowl hunting In tha Tula
lake basin.
The resolution:
WHEREAS, the migratory wild
fowl shooting seaaon In California
has been designated from Novem
ber 17 to December II, which
dataa are effective In tht Tule
lake basin of northern California,
and
WHEREAS, such datea provide
tor season which la entirely too
lata for duck ahootlng In the Tule
lake district, for by tha time the
season opene all birds will have
flown Into more southerly re
gions, and
WHEREAS, the datea for Ore
ton eeason are November 1 to 30,
which datea would provide a fairer
and more aatisfactory season for
Tule lake. land.
WHEREAS, tha Tale lake dis
trict Is contlng-uous to tha Klam
ath, Oregon, district, being geo
graphically a part of the same
anit, and reserves on both sldxe
of tha line are being administered
as one unit by tha biological sur
vey, BE IT RESOLVED that the
Klamath County Council of the
Oregon Wildlife Federation here
by declares itself on record In
favor of changing tha datea of
tha season In tha Tola lake dis
trict, of California, to coincide
with tha datea for tha aeason In
tha Klamath district of Oregon,
namely. November 1 to 10.
Be It farther resolved that this
organisation nrgea tha biological
aurvey and other game authori
ties to consider tha Tula lake and
Klamath districts aa one and the
aama district In such matters aa
tha establishment of bunting sea
eons. Be It further resolved that
eopiea of thla resolution be sent to
Ed P. Averlll, president of tha

450,000 Acres in

PORTLAND. Aug. II (UP)
Oregon waterfowl and game ant
male now have nearly 450.000
acres of federal land In which to
cavort unhindered. W. Rush, re
gional director of the United
States biological survey, disclosed
today.
Rush's report Indicated a total
of 191.61 acres assigned to the
protection of deer and antelope,
with the remainder devoted to
migratory waterfowl and shore
bird refuges.
The wsterfowl refuge on TJpper
Klamath lake provided haven for
approximately 300,000 ducks last
year. Rush said, with mora than
a million of the birds using the
area aa a atopplng place on mi
gratory flights.
Insufficient funds prevent the
establishment of mora refuges

With that done, they looked
over the field Thursday snd found
that their 1838 record of 188
homers for a season, which was
supposed to be pretty close to a
limit a year ago, would be some
what of a cinch to wipe out and
that they have a fair chanca to
preserve for Yankee posterity new
marks for won-lost standings and
for the margin by which tbey can
