PORTLAND. Maine, April s.
choice of fifteen delegates to the Re
publican national convention favor
able to President Coolidge but un-
pledged appeared probable at the
Republican state convention here to-
day. Although there was a possi-
bility of a contest for one of the
seven places as delegate at large
Presidential preferences were not in
volved, all the candidates being in
favor of Mr.. Coolidges nomination.

instructed delegations to the national
conventions.
The tentative draft of the plat

Fox Farmers Hold Meeting at Cordova;;
 Elect New Officers
(Cordova Times)

At the recent session of the South Central Alaska Blue Fox Farmers Association held in Cordova the fol- lowing officers were elected for the ensuing year:
 President, F. w. Lambert, of Perry Island
 Vice President, Dr. w. w. Council of Green Island.
 Secretary Treasurer, Lee E. Dick inson of Lone Island.
 Directors, F. A. Shoemaker, Of Ele- amor Island and Louis Van of Axel Lind Island.
 The Association went on record as favoring the enactment of legislation that would permit the leasing of isl ands outside the National forests for fur farming under the same general terms as those administered by the Forest Service.
 At the suggestion of Forest Super visor Mcdonald the bylaws of the local Association were amended Un- der this amendment the president and board of directors constitute an ad- visory committee with full power to act for the association in all deal ings with the Forest Service. In re- turn the Forest Service will make no material changes in regulations or other matters affecting the fur far mer without first presenting it to the advisory committee for consid- eratiOn.
 The advisability of joining with similar associations of the territory in the formation of an all-Alaskan fur breeders association received a lengthy discussion. No definite ac- tion was taken. There was a free for all discussion of feeding methods, care of foxes, equipment, etc., during the course of which many valuable suggestions were made.
 1 After the meeting adjourned a luncheon was had.

TROUT DIDN'T BITE
Speekled Beauties not Interested in
 lcicle-like Worms

Tn spite of the cold. freezing weath- er there were many Putnam fishermen out on the opening morning of the season Tuesday, angling for trout in their favorite brooks. Many returned early, while others stuck the day out. In the former class was Attorney Err nest C. Morse. who with his son Chandler went out when it was hard ly light. and returned a short time lat CT to sit in his swivel chair and follow the practice of the law until a good day for fishing came. Mir. Morse said there was ice on the brooks almost ev- anywhere, and the wet worm was froz- en stiff in the sharp biting air. Anoth- CT fisherman who came back early was Principal Mark F. Stinson of the high school. He said that he found that the fish didn't care to feed on icicles such as the worms became m a short time.
 No especially good catches were re- ported from any sources. It is be- heyed that there are trout enough, but that on such a day as Tuesday and those since then they did not care to play with bait dangled before their eyes.
 Town Clerk David Flagg has issued this year l32 fishing licenses. Every one over sixteen who wishes to fish must have a license Boys or girls under that age need not have one.
