Return of catch record cards
from sportsmen thus far this sea­
son exceeds in number ail the cards
retu/ned last year, according to C.
A. Lockwood, assistant supervisor
of the Oregon State Game Com­
mission.
“The sportsmen are making an
excellent showing in the use of the
catch record cards this year,” said
Mr. Lockwood. “This is encourag­
ing in view of the fact that the
cards are essential to the comple­
tion of the survey of lakes and
streams, now being conducted in
various parts of the state.
“These cards should be filled
out by every angler after each
fishing trip. The cards require no
signature and are postage free.
Numerous sportsmens’
organiza­
tions throughout the state are giv­
ing the Commission real coopera­
tion in the campaign to acquaint
anglers with the use of the catch
record cards.”
The cards may be obtained from
the Portland office of the Game
Commission, as well as in practical­
ly every sporting goods store, and
irom game license agents, Mr. Lock­
wood pointed out.

shoot or hunt non-game animals
cr predators, just as a license is
necessary to take game animals.
This change came about through
provisions of Senate Bill No. 147,
granting power to the Game Com­
mission to fix seasons and bag
limits. Previously, the attorney gen­
eral had ruled that no license was
required for shooting of non-game
animals or predators. The recently
enacted legislation which, because
of the emergency clause already
in effect, makes it mandatory for
any person to obtain a license be­
fore shooting any wild animals or
predators.

FLYNN LEARNS TEXAS
DRAWL FOR COMEDY SCENE—
Errol Flynn went to night school
to learn how to talk with a Texas
accent.
This abrupt departure from Flynn
characterizations of the past was
because of his new picture for
Warner Bros., “Footsteps in the
Dark.” It is his first modern role
in some three years, his last such
part having been in “Four’s a
Crowd.”
