 MAI PENINSULA

The executive office of the Alaska Game Commission an nounce changes in game and fur regulations for the 1933-34 season to become effective On July l, 1883. The outstanding changes are as follows:
 An open season for the taking of beaver in fur districts 2, 4, 5, d and ? will be the same as prevailed this year-January 1 to May 10 In addition to the Chandala1 drainage in fur district ' which remains closed, the drainage te the upper Panama river above anc including the Volkmar and BIZ Gerstle rivers will be closed.

provision permitting residents to kill a bear in protection of life and property is continued in eff feet and applies to the whole range.
 A closed area, including the pre- sent sanctuary of Glacier bay nat ional monument, has been created to afford complete protection for the several closely related sub species of the large bears found in Southeastern Alaska. The area ex- tends along the mainland from the eastern drainage to Excursion inlet westward to Cape Fairweath- CT. The surveyed lands at Straw berry Point are not included.

in fur district 2, where it is re- duced to 10 per trapper. The clos ing of the Chandalar and upper Tanana drainages are by request of the residents and the reduction of the bag limit on the Kenai pen- insula is a result of reduced num- bers of animals through intensive trapping during the past two sea- sons.
 The opening of the season for mink and otter weasel, fox and lynx in fur district has been ad- vanced and will open on Novem- Der 16.
 The open season for the same fur-bearers in fur district l has been heightened 10 days to open December 10 and sclose January 20.
 The muskrat season in fur dis trict 2 is advanced 30 days to open on March 1.
