hbxwd Ms FISH FRYING PAN Leaden of the Klamath Sportsmen'! association expect one of the year's biggest turn outs Friday night at their regu lar Willard hotel meeting which promises to be a dinger. In addition to mulling recom mendations for next fall's bird and big game rules and bag lini' its, nimrods and anglers will hear a direct refutation to cur rent rumors regarding the fish feeding by the Oregon State Game commission. According to Francis Olds. Klamath r.mb.r of the com lsh. whispers have been slink ing around nearbf palm fronds, tap rooms and camp fires that the state's ruling game body has been nefari ously feeding Oregon's game fish the day before they are scheduled to snap at the bait you and I cast at 'em. Thus ly, the rumors intimate, our finny friends are in a mood to sneer at the best of our week end efforts. Silly as it may sound and im plausible as it may be, the ru mor is nevertheless existent and, we . hear, gaining credence among fishermen. Personally, we can see no rea son for such a method of halting fish catches. If the game com mission deems it necessary to :iop fishing in any lake or stream, they have the power to close the waters for any length of time. Olds will read a statement from Frank Wire, state game supervisor, at the Sportsmen's meet, categorically denying the commission's part in the alleged scheme. The conference will give lo cal sportsmen their last chance at a voice in game rules for the coming fall. Recommendations from all state points, by which the commission can get a cross section opinion, must be in this weekend for the commission consideration next week. CALIF.
