You need 4 license this year TO
take catfish" State Game Warden
Frank Burns of Brawley told the
Pest Press Sports Editor Wednes-
dav.
THE 1914 fishing licenses are on
sale at the usual hardware and
sporting goods stores but the ad-
dition of catfish to the game fish
list is called to the attention of
the county's lac WaltCns. There's
no bag limit or closed season on
catfish except Parker dam, Imperial
Dam and the Colorado river. There
the channel catfish limit is 10 fish
or Is pounds and one fish per day
or in possession he advised,
BASS SEASONS
Spotted and black bass may be
taken in the above named waters,
all year, he continued, Bag limit
is 10 fish or IS pounds and one fish
per day or in possession. Legal
length nine inches. Elsewhere in
California the bass season is May
90 TO October 81, inclusive.
ESTIMATES CATCHES
Burns estimated that the total
catches of some Of our important
sport fish in California showed eX-
cellent sporting in this state. He
estimated that with 234,O anglers
out of a total catch Of some sixteen
million trout was made; Of $4,000
striped bass anglers catch Of l.
100000 was made and about 180.-
600 salmon were taken by $4,000
anglers. He said these figures were
obtained from return postal cards
which the state fish and game
commission sends out each year to
ten per cent Of all anglers.
CHECK WAR INFLUENCE
He said present figures indicate
that the sale Of angling licenses in
1943 was practically the same as in
1912, when the total was over 433,-
O00 Whether anglers are able to
fish as many times or catch as
many fish as in earlier years re-
mains to be seen. Return post
cards requesting reports on the 1943
season will soon te in the mail and
the results will be of particular
Importance this year because of
the change in fishing conditions
brought about by the War.
Only by knowing how heavy the
fishing is in 1943 as compared TO
previous years, and in what locali-
ties and on what species the
anglers are concentrating, can the
division make intelligent plans for
its operations and Investigations.
The fishermen can be Of real help
by answering the questions and
returning the card at once, he de-
clared
YOU CAN DREAM
Local fishermen probably will be
interested, if only to dream about
it, he said, to know that northern
California coastal streams are
furnishing some swell steelhead
fishing according TO reports he has
received. The winter season On
steelhead fishing is open until the
end Of February.

COP HERE MOVE
TO AVERT PRIMARY
Tonight's Meeting Ex'
pected to Witness Sew.
eral Hectic Discussions

A lively session Is expected to take
place at tonight's meeting OF the
Young Republican club with several
differences OF opinion slated to be
thrashed out among members.
Reports state that the bitterest
contest will revolve around the reso-
luton prohibiting the candidacy
for president Of any member over
40 years Of age.
This latter issue, 1t Is stated, re-
solves itself into further compica-
lions which 1t Is said are all part
Of the principal question OF differ
ences OF opinion among the CLUBS
members.
Unless the ruling on the age
limit Is abolished, 1t Is claimed that
Harold Hadley or Samel Cervero
will receuive the nomination as
president OF the club In place OF
Frank Rossi, now vice president and
acting president who Is over the
40-year limit, or Albert Schiavone.
Reports state that Republican
primary may be called this spring
If results tonight are not satisfac-
tory to certain groups within the
Young Republican club. 1t has also
been stated that a primary fight
will be q fact II this same group
Is successful.
The Summa- for Senator organiza-
ton Is understood to be heartily IN
favor Of RoSsi and Schiavone. In
dicative Of this support 1t would
follow that many old-guard party
members are also leaning that way.
II successful these latter groups,
1t Is expected, will fight against
any attempts to organize a primary.
State Republican leaders have
been reported In favor of primary
contest within the local party ever
since the last city election when
it was claimed that local party
leaders held back full support from
the partys campaign efforts.
1t Is not likely, these same sources
claim, that compromise candidate
will be elected at tonight's meeting
inasmuch as the supporters OF q
primary contest would lose out on
one Of their principal issues. At
q recent meeting OF the club a
majority voted at the time to abol-
ish the prohibition againt the club
participating In the primaries.
Following the unsuccessful may
orally candidacy OF John j. Kearney
many attacks against the old-guard
Republican leaders were waged BY
supporters Of Kearney, claiming the
party was not given full support
during the campaign. This group,
II Il stated, would welcome Q pri-
mary fight within the party.

Governor Baldwin has very post

bition to continue in office as gov
ernor and he will not enter into
competition with anyone for any
other honor, state or national,
Notwithstanding the confidence
that both Senator Danaher and
Governor Baldwin will be renamed
1t has been reported that move
ment Is being contemplated to drop
Danaher. A "Stop-Danaher-Drive'
would be the equivalent of tossing
a monkey wrench into the state @.

political events is likely to assume
the responsibility of predicting the
outcome of such a situation.
According. to reports from Hart
ford a meeting has been arranged
for discussion of plans to effect a
change in the U. S. senatorial cam
didate. Governor Baldwin and a
number Of other leaders have de-
clined to attend the session. Unof-
ficially, among those reported in
favor Of the movement to eliminate
Danaher are Moe Berkman and

of Hartford; Leigh Dannenberg of

In view OF Danaher's excellent

tributes paid him by various Or

by disinterested parties that oppo-
