S~portsmen's Club
Initiutes Drive

A membership drive in the
Big Horn County Rod and Gun
club was launched this week
in an effort to raise funds to
carry on work in this area:
In charge of the drive Is a.
M. Chilly and Lawrence Wend-.
land of Hardin, Dick Louk OF
Crow Agency, Percy Forman OF
Lodge Grass and Henry Peck OF
Wyola.
Main objective at this time is
to stock the Lodge Grass dam
with 5000 six inch rainbow
trout. These trout must be pur-
chased from the hatchery and
will cost $4,000. If more mem
berships are raised, more trout
will be planted. The trout will
be put in the dam upon its COM
pletion. -,
The planting of trout this
size would assure local sports
men of good fishing within
two years.
It Is hoped by those in charge
that every sportsman in the
area will cooperate in the
membership drive.
