Poll Sentiment
On Fishing
Regulations

Before new fishing regulations
for the coming year are adopt
ed by the Ohio Conservation
and Natural Resources commits
sion, those persons in each
county who are interested in
them are being given an oppor-
tunlty of expressing their senti-
ment, it was announced this
week by Larry Love, chairman
of the Licking County Conserva-
tlon committee, organized earlier
in the year in keeping with the
Ohio Division of Conservation's
new 15-point program.
A countrywide meeting of all
persons interested in fishing and
in fishing regulations was held
Thursday, Nov. 7 at 1880 p. m.
in the common pleas court room,
in Newark.
Representatives of sports
mems groups, farm groups and
all other interested persons
were III attendance.
Conservation Commissioner
Don Waters has announced that
the same plan will be followed
IN securing sentiment prior to
the adopting of fishing regula-
tions as was followed at the time
the game laws were established
earlier in the year. Question
naires were provided those at
tending the meeting on which
they voted" on various mat
ters pertaining to fishing. The
questionnaires were tabulated
and returned through Game Pro-
tector l.. L. Ludwig to the Con-
servation Division offices for
guidance of the Commission.
The sportsmen and farmer
representatives from this county
will attend a district meeting to
be called later and finally the Ia
district representatives named
to serve on the Advisory Com
mittee will meet with the Com
mission at the time of the pub
lie hearing on fishing regula-
tions, which has been scheduled
by George M. Trautman, chair
man of the Commission, for
Tuesday, January 7.
1t is thought that the SO
smaller hearings" held in each
county will be of great benefit
to the Commission in securing
the sentiment of the public on
matters pertaining to fishing.

Two Thousand
Attend Bird
Dog Trials

The third annual Field Trial
of the Licking county Bird Dog
club which was held Oct. 27 on
the Tom Fulton farm was one
of the best meetings since the
club was organized three years
ago. There were approximate
ly 1000 people who visited the
meet during the day. Dogs ran
in three different classes. Some
of the finest dogs in this section
of the state performed during
the day.
The judges were Mr.. Charles
K. Salisbury and Mr.. Harry
Strodebeck, both of Mt. Vernon.
Their decisions were as follows:
The Puppy class, was run first,
first prize being won by Spud
Tide Houston Of Logan, Ohio; Sec
ond prize went to Village Skoot-
er, owned and handled by Mr.. r.

and handled by J. NJ. Stewart of
Columbus; second prize to West
hart Ted Belfair, owned and

third prize to Arlington Village
Boy, owned and handled by j. NJ.
The day was ideal for the
event. The course which was
laid out on the Tom Fulton farm
at the junction of Routes 81 and
40, was in ideal condition, due to
the efforts and cooperation of
Mr.. Fulton and Mr.. Ames.
An unusual part of the days
program was the kick the gal
lery got out of the free rides
furnished on the hay wagon by
the Fulton farm. Lots of young
sters and others who couldn't
ride horses or Upra 11nahla fn
walk the course got a thrill in
riding the wagon.
Everything clicked according
to schedule, said Chairman Ray
Bailey. Strict enforcement of
the rules and program was hand
led by Field Marshal Bill Nc
Elroy and his assistants, George
Coyle, Kenney Hoover and Joe
Hatfield.
