STATE GAME ASSOCIATION
NAMING ITS VICE PRESIDENTS
REPRESENTATIVE FROM EACH
COUNTY is ASKED BY
ORGANIZATION.

| William b. Mershon, president of
the Michigan association for the Pro
lection of Fish and Game, is engaged
i'm selecting vice presidents of the as
ISOLATION for each county in the state
as the result of a resolution passed at
| the annual meeting of the organiza-
| ton.
The members of the association felt
that by having an officer of the or
ganization in each county, the asso-
citation could keep in touch with the
conditions of hunting and fishing in
the state and could be in better po-
sition to know the needs for better
ing the hunting and fishing than
through any other means. In that
way il is believed the greatest good
can be done for the greatest number
and no one locality would be favored
at the expense of the remainder of the
state.
The vice presidents will be the rep
resentatives of the Michigan associa-
ton in their county who will do all i'm
their power to enforce the fish and
game laws and who will work in con-
junction with the state organization.
President Mershon will make the
appointments principally through re-
Communications of the sportsmen or
sportsmen's associations i'm each
county. The recommendations may
he sent to William u. Mershon, pres
ldent, OF Saginaw, Mich, or Hugh II.

The association is adding it's voice
To the appeal of the American Gems

ton for an appropriation to enforce

Requests have been sent to it's mem
bers asking them to write to the
Michigan senators requesting them
to support the request of the depart
ment OF agriculture for an appropria-
tion that will insure the enforcement
OF the law. The association is also

declares, that their personal interests

the current issue of his paper, he
says:
