PROTECT U. g. PLAN FOR
GAME CONTROL

Strong protests were registered by
game wardens and sportmen at a
conference early in the week In Salt
Lake City to the proposed enactment
of the senate bill providing for the
establishment of public shooting
grounds. additional game refugees and
possible ultimate control by the fed
eral government OF all game and fish
in the entire United States, accord
ing to w. T..Judkins, State Game and
Fish Commissioner.
Attending the conference and meet
ing were commissioners and state
game wardens representing seven
western states. The states represent
ed at the conference yer Arizona,
Colorado. Montana. New Mexico.
Oregon. Utah and Wyoming.
Resolutions opposing this "un-
warranted encroachment by the fed
eral government upon the rights of
the various states in the protection Of
their fish and game laws" we're
drawn by the representatives at the
conference. They will be presented
to the congressman and senators as
well as governors and other high Of
ficials from all states concerned at
an early date.
Urge State Control.
I'VE are not unmindful OF the in
herent sovereignty of the several
states, as recognized in the decision
Of the Supreme court in its deter
mination that the game and fish
within the confines of each state are
the property of such state. and,
therefore, under the jurisdiction and
control of state authority" one resp
luton reads.
Continuing. the resolution reads:
Whereas. We disapprove of the
Capitalization of control in the fed
eral government. of the game. birds.
animals and fishes which find their
range within the confines of any
state: and,
whereas. the purpose OF said
senate bill No. 1852 is not. in our
opinion. as indicated in its title, but
on the contrary. is designed to, and
will result in an unwarranted en-
croachment by the federal govern
ment upon the. rights Of the various
states in the protection of their fish
and game laws;
Now. therefore be it resolved. that
we protest against the enactment in
to law Of the United States senate
Bill No. 1852 for the reason as set
forth in the foregoing preamble and
more specifically because:
Gives Authority.
81. Said senate bill. although in
its title providing for establishing
shooting grounds for the public: for
establishing game refugees and
breeding grounds; for protecting mi
gratory birds and requiring d federal
license to hunt them. nevertheless.
in the body thereof. purports to give
in no wise indicated In the
title and delegates power to the de-
partment of agriculture, and a con-
mittee consisting Of the secretary OF
agriculture, the attorney general. til"
postmaster general. two members of
the senate. and two members OF the
house of representatives. giving said
, 1922-02-16

commission complete legislative
power to make rules and regulations
which will have the force of laws
governing and controlling. not only
the migratory birds and the game
animals. but also the fishes. that may
be found in their natural states. or
introduced into any Of the lands or
waters upon any game preserve se-
cured under said act either by graft
lease Or purchase.
Disapprove Plan.
20. We do not approve of Great
ing a federal organization of game
wardens which. in the enforcement
OF said act. will largely duplicate the
work of the state organizations for
the protection Of fish and game,
thereby increasing the operating ex-
penses necessary to the enforcement
of the law, and tending to create con
flicting authority between state and
federal game wardens and to disrupt
the harmony and unity Of purpose
now existing between the state and
federal departments.
SO. We object to the federal gov
eminent assessing q license fee
against citizens Of a state for the
privilege of hunting and fishing
within the confines Of their own
state.
"And, whereas, we believe that the
enforcement of the migratory bird
la wof sufficient importance to
justify a direct appropriation from
congress for that purpose;
BE it further resolved. that we
favor a direct appropriation from
congress for the purpose Of enforc. lg
the migratory bird treaty act, snd
the establishment Of public shooting
grounds and game refugees under tie
direction of the biological survey"

NOTE

Friday night Wyoming sensed the
JOY of victory in a fast, clean game
with the Colorado Aggies. The game
ended in a is to 16 victory for Wyo-
ming. 1t was anybody's game n
time until the final pistol shot. The
Agsies committed ten fouls from
which Walt Smyth made eight free
throws. In this game the COWBOYS
buckled down to work and played the
best game that they have played so
far this year.
, 1922-02-16

On Saturday night the Cowboys
again played the Colorado Aggies.
The game ended in a 10 to 8 defeat
Tor Wyoming. The game was more
Or less Of a joke all the way through,
owing to the inability Of the referee
to apply the simplest rules Of the
game. However. he was impartial
in his decisions and almost eyery
body enjoyed the comedy of the
game. Walt Smyth got the lone field
goal that was made by Wyoming.

The local chapter OF the Alpha Tau

their fraternity on Friday and Sat
urday, the. 10th and 18th. Friends
in the University and the city were
invited to attend a public meeting at
the University auditorium for the
, 1922-02-16

purpose of meeting these delegates.
Several prominent men gave fine
talks on the real fraternity spirit
that exists in the University OF Wyo.
President Nelson gave an address of
welcome and told of. the Dement'S
accruing to Wyoming because of the
many splendid fraternities here and
gave it as his opinion that they were
an intergral part of the life of any
modern college. Mr.. Burrage of the
Laramie Republican pointed out that
Laramie is indebted to the fraterni-
ties because they attract to the city
many fine young men and women of
the best type and help to make the
university life so attractive that they
remain here. BY the examples set
forth by these fraternities. many re-
cruits are brought to the university.
The assembly hour on Tuesday
was turned over to Mr.. William E.
Sweet. a prominent business man OF
Denver and a member Of the Bankers
Trust Company. His subject was
The Social and Political Situation
in Central Europe" Mr.. Sweet was
a member of the committee which
was e n to Europe last year to in
vestigate economic conditions His
topic was a very interesting one and
was an entirely different viewpoint
from that taken by most speakers
on the situation abroad. The stud
ents all being interested in the prob
lens of Central Europe received his
talk with great interest.
The students of the university are
very fortunate in having the chance
to hear these very good speakers and
prominent men hat have spoken to
the student body during the assembly
periods throughout the year.
On February 18th the Laramie
High School team lost to Rock
Springs High in a fast and interest
ing game. The final score was 27 to
10. Laramie's main difficulty seemed
to be their failure to find the hole
in the basket.
