Fuirfux Considers
freeing Hunters

Fairfax County hunters may
be freed next year If the Board
of County Supervisors follow a
suggestion made today.
The board has asked the State
Game Commission to close deer
hunting in the county. because
of the danger to populated
areas from high powered rifles.
Homer Bauserman. member
of the commission, suggested
that the board consider leaving
the deer season open but re-
quiring the hunters to shoot
from platforms in trees. He said
several other counties have
done this to eliminate the dam
ger of bullets carrying long dis
lance when fired from the
ground.
The board asked County
Game Warden Fred Brown to
study the platform proposal
and make recommendations at
next weeks meeting.
