All that's necessary to enter the contest and qualify for one of the three big prizes is to register the deer at one of two stations, according to Charles Hull, chairman. Deer may be checked in at R. C. Elliott Hide and Fur Company, located at 40 North 3rd East, Salt Lake City, or at Kammeyers in Ogden. Hull pointed out that hunters may also enter the big contest sponsored by Kammeyers, but they need to register with them before the hunt. The contest is open to all civilian employees of Hill AFB, male or. female. Winners will be eligible for one prize only, he said. Prizes are: for the heaviest deer: rifle equipped with scope and jnount, rifle cleaning kit and four boxes of shells. For the widest spread: Ithaca pump shotgun, one dozen decoys, 5 boxes shells, game carrier and a hunting vest. For the deer with the most points: umbrella tent, sleeping bag, and pair of binoculars with colored lens. Deer must be field dressed and in one piece at time of entry. 30.06 -- 15-2- 0, ...Ti n,rr irnT-- Wf mmm m in i - - -- mM.im Two of the valuable guns that are part of the prizes that will go to winners of the deer hunting contest sponsored by the civilian welfare association are examined by Charles Hull (left) chairman of the event, and Tony Jensen, placement and employee relations, civilian personnel. . |
