AROUSE TEXANS WRATH
Drastic Action Against Hunters
Using Flying Machines
Planned by Warden.
BY the Associated Press.

ANfARILLA, Tex, December 90
Drastic action against airplane game
hogs" reported to have killed several
antelopes as they skimmed their ma
chimes low over the plains of Matador
County, was promised yesterday by S. D.
Turner, district game warden. Under
Texas game laws, antelopes are pro-
tected.
Conf1scation of planes used Illegally
in hunting is permitted under Federal
statutes, Turner said, and steps are be-
ing taken to attach several ships in this
section. An Oklahoma Army officer re-
ported to have hunted geese from his
plane in this vicinity was under inves-
tigation.
There have been many complaints of
hunters taking advantage of deer and
antelopes by binding them with auto
mobile lights, the modernized way of
headlight" hunting. Convictions for
this violation have been numerous
throughout Western Texas this season.

Afghanistan. The thing will be

it, much less find out where it is
