Ann Arbor, Mich.-(R-Rewrit-
ing and arrangement Of the laws of

for the rules committee and the
friends Of the great fall game. Last
year agreement was reached that
the game, as far as its rules were
concerned, has reached point Of
stability; that new. OF, changed rules
were unnecessary. Agreement also
was reached that recodificstion and
Encouragement was desirable. and
the football rules committee set
aside this year rs the one for the
forces Of the game to concentrate
upon the problem Of. elimination, or
ganization' and simplification. This
period gave coaches and officials 4
complete football season and the
remembering period afterward in
which to weigh the questions Of rule
betterment. ~
In spite of, the fact that the foot
ball rules have "just growed,"' with
Z section added here and there where
it seemed to fit, study Of the rules
from the standpoint of rearrange-

Guides

Applicants for guide licenses for
the license year beginning July /,
1928, will be required to undergo
an examination to determine their
qualifications to act as guide. APP
plieations for guide licenses for the
license year beginning July l, 1929,
are required to be approved by the
Commission at its annual meeting,
November 1, 1928. Persons desiring
to secure guide licenses for that year
should submit their applications and
be examined prior to that date. Ex-
aminations will be given by Game
Commissioners or by persons desig-
mated by the Commission. These re-
quirements have been made by the
Commission to the end that the per-
sonnet of the guide service in Alaska
may be put on par with the guides
found in other big game fields of the
North American continent.

Capture For Propagation

That the fur farms of the Terri
tory may benefit from the sale of
domesticated fur-bearers for breed
ing stock. the Commission will here
after not issue any permits for the
capture of fur-bearers for propaga-
ton purposes where these animals
are to be removed from the Terri
tory. Few permits of this nature
have been issued but the increasing
demand for breeding stock of Alas
kan strains has caused the Commits
sion to adopt this policy.
Some confusion appears to exist
in the Interpretation of the present
regulations where a person desires

Petitions and recommendations
from residents of that part of Fur
District No. 2 north of the Alaska
Range and Ahklun Mountains ask
that the protection now given black
bear through the closed season from
June 20 to September 1 be removed.
These recommendations and petit
tions are based on the damage being
done to the supply of game animals
by the black bear killing young
moose and caribou calves. The Com
mission recommends that there be
no closed season on black bear in
that part of Fur District No 2 north
of the Alaska Range and Ahklun
Mountains.

Fourth Annual Meeting Occasion for

The fourth annual meeting Of the
Alaska Game Commission convened
in the offices of the Commission at
Juneau on February 9Th. Two
changes occurred in the personnel of
the Commission since its last meet
ing. Irving Mex. Reed succeeds Dr.
Preston S. Whitney from the Fourth
Division and J. c. Winstead succeeds
Thos. d. Jensen from the Second Di-
vision Upon completion of its work
the Commission adjourned on Feb
ruary q.
It is the desire of the Commission
to make as few changes as possible
in the present regulations. It was
found. however. from recommends
tons received from trappers and 9th
er residents interested in wild life
of the Territory, and from recon-
mendations of the Commissions field
force. that some changes in seasons
for the taking of fur-bearing ami
mails were desirable to allow trap
ping to be done when the fur is more
fully prime. These changes in the
regulations promulgated under the
Alaska Game Law for the year be
ginning July 1. 1928, are being re-
commended to the Secretary of Agri-
culture.

Beaver

It is the desire of the Commission
to maintain the breeding stock of
beaver to a point where the heavy
trapping of one or two seasons will
not deplete the supply to. the danger
line leading to determination. With
this end in view, it is thought best
to follow a period of one or two open
seasons with a like period of closed
seasons.
Information received from those
sections of the Territory where beav-
er were permitted to be trapped last
year. together with the knowledge
of the extraordinary large catches
made and the losses ensuing from
the taking of these animals by shoot
ing, has caused the Commission to
fear that with the unknown outcome
of the present years open season the
danger line is rapidly approaching,
The condition is being FASTENED by
the tendency of less experienced
trappers to follow the line of least
resistance and trap too closely those
animals found In the more readily
accessible regions. in fact the lower
reaches of some of the best beaver
streams are now almost denuded of
beaver. After careful consideration
the Commission is recommending
that the beaver season he closed for
the year 1929.
The Wrangell sentinel. (Wrangell, Alaska) 1909-current, 1928-03-01
Big Game

It has long been known that Alas
ka permitted as large or larger a
bag limit of big game to nonresident
hunters than may be taken in many
of the big game fields of the world.
Many big game hunters and other
nonresidents visiting the Territory
during the past few years have rec
commended that Alaska reduce the
bag limit of big game allowed non
resident hunters.
Hunters visiting the Alaska Pen
Ursula and other western regions
during the past year have been dis
appointed in their effort to secure a
desirable trophy of that much de
sired animal which is found only in
Alaska. the large brown bear.
Guides and other residents of that
region, who benefit from the thou
sands of dollars spent annually by
nonresident hunters searching for
this much desired trophy. have rec
commended a reduction in the bag
limit of 3 now permitted. That this
westward region might maintain its
supply of large brown and grizzly
bears the Commission recommends
that the bag limit be reduced to 2
on the Kenai and Alaska Peninsulas
and the Kodiak-Afognak Island
group.
The Wrangell sentinel. (Wrangell, Alaska) 1909-current, 1928-03-01
Muskrats

Recommendations received from
persons residing in Fur District No.
3 indicate that the present open sea-
son on muskrats closes too soon af-
ter the breakup to allow a normal
catch of these animals to be made.
To correct this condition the Com
mission is recommending that the
season be permitted to remain open
a few days longer.
The same condition is found in
the Tanana River region in Fur Dis
trict No. 2 and a similar recommen-
dation is being made.
The Wrangell sentinel. (Wrangell, Alaska) 1909-current, 1928-03-01
Caribou

Many commentators from resi-
dents and from nonresident hunters
ask that the present bag limit of 8
caribou now permitted to a nonresi-
dent hunter north of the Alaska
Range and Ahklun Mountains be re-
duced to 2, thereby making the non
resident bag limit of this animal uni
form throughout the Territory The
Commission has recommended this
reduction.
The Wrangell sentinel. (Wrangell, Alaska) 1909-current, 1928-03-01
Mountain Sheep

Present regulations permit a non
resident hunter to take mountain
sheep north of the Arctic Circle.
However, due to the scarcity of this
animal in certain portions of the re-
gions north of the Circle, the Com
mission is recommending that this
be reduced to 2 thereby making the
nonresident bag limit uniform thru
out the Territory.
