Montana's WiIdlife

The Chinese pheasant season opened
here in the Flathead valley Sunday,
| high noon, October 26th. The hunters
came from far and near, yes, by the
hundreds. Previous billings of the Game
Department advised the populace that
there would be 10000 gunners to try
their luck on 10000 pheasantS that had
been pen raised and liberated just %
few days before the opening of the
season.
In Roman and vicinity there were
cars from Wyoming, Idaho, California,
Washington and Montana cars from
Billings, Great Falls. Helena, Butte,
Anaconda and many other towns. Esti-
mated more than 5000 hunters in Lake
county. The information and education
department of Fish and Game, which
cost the taxpayers some $4,000 last
biennium, along with the daily press
certainly got in their propaganda work.
This writer went into what is known
locally as the Round Butte area, some
Z or miles west of Roman. The hunt
ers were there long before the zero
hour. Beautiful blue bird weather, most
all hunters in shirt sleeves. When the
clock registered IL noon the multitude
went forth in glee. But where were the
pheasants That was the question asked
by all after some 80 minutes of hunt
ing. Many hunted for hours without
seeing a bird.
Oh yes! the technicians of the depart
ent said bring your dog for good
hunting. The dogs were there from
Mexican hairless to Saint Bernards,
all breeds, colors. The dogs were for
the most part on one 80 acres, his
master? on another so some half mile
away. AS one hunter remarked, 1 have
never before seen so many dogs with
the same name, which was come here
you dirty son of a sea cook, or some
thing that sounded like that. The at
mosphere seemed to affect the dogs
hearing, as none responded to their
masters pleadings.
Wonderful hunting, but no birds. |
When will the people awaken to the |
fact that they are being propagandized |
and robbed of their sovereign rights |
as pertains to hunting and fishing.
Will the next Legislature correct the |
many ills?-TOM PEASLEY, Roman.

No Takers!

In an effort at tightening it's tax
load and other financial burdens,
President James M. Symes of the
Pennsylvania Railroad recently of
fered the roads $23 million Union
Station in Washington, d. c., to the
federal government. The road pays
heavy taxes on the privately-owned
passenger terminal while the Wash
ington National Airport enjoys tax
free status. However, the government,
with money problems of its own,
quickly declined the offer.--T. & P.

 MT. Bixby and his Music De- partment will present the last part of the program.

Whitney West will be the mar rator, and seventh graders, under the direction of MT. Denney, will present the various Biblical scenes in pantomime.
 The Christmas Story" is ar ranged by Paul Yoder and is very effective with the combined units.
 Other teachers are helping with the program, and there are many other people who helped in vari- ous ways to make the program a success. We wish to thank them all for their valuable cooperation. said the director Mrs. Witner.
 The. spirit of Christmas, which runs throughout the program, will be epitomized in the part of THE CHILD in the Christmas play it. self. One of the magic ingredi- ents of the program has not yet been mentioned. It is - You! We trust that you will be there.

BOmber-Launched Missile Program Dropped By AZ

WASHINGTON, R - The Air Force spent about 374 million dol lars on the Rascal before that missile program was dropped earlier this month.
 The Rascal was originally de- signed for use by BAY medium jet Ibombers. It was carried aloft and could be launched from the bomber some miles away from the target.
 The Air Force dropped the pro- gram under it's policy of discard ing marginal weapons systems.
 The Air Force said today that the money spent on this missile, which will never be used, was not all lost.
 It said side benefits obtained from development of the Rascal led to perfection of the Hustler liquid rocket engine which pro- vides the final boost in Discoverer satellites.
 The Air Force said also that experience with the Rascal added greatly to the experience re- quired is developing the larger Hound Dog missile which will be- come standard equipment on many B52 heavy jet bombers.
