Show CMNIWEST, CORP. 3322 SO. 3RD. east SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH 84115 Utah Deer Hunting Season Opens Saturday Cooler weather should make hunting easier for Utah sportsmen on Saturdays deer opener, according to Division of Wildlife Resources regional reports. The hunt continues through October 28. Centra Region Game Manager Kendall Nelson says hunters should expect better hunting in the Central Region this year than last when regulations were more restrictive. He pointed out that the bulk of the deer will be on the summer range, even though there are indications that some animals are moving onto winter range. The problem we have is that the herd had to be cut to fit the winter range along the Wasatch Front; and when they are on the larger summer range, theyre harder to find, said Nelson. Foliage is still quite dense and will add to difficulty sighting deer. Range conditions are better than last year, which means there is more feed and a lot of w ater. Deer are well distributed throughout the area. Nelson added that hunter's choice permits are still available on all six units in that region, i.e., the Heaston (11), Timpanogas (15), Hobble Creek (17), Diamond Fork (18), and portions of North Nebo (41) and South Nebo (42). Southern Region A tough hunt is expected in the Southern Region says Game Manager Floyd Coles Some bright spots for hunting are found on some fringe areas, while the central portion of the region should have the poorest hunting. It works out that units with least pressure in the past should have the best hunting this year. The storm in late May that dropped two feet of wet snow 0 Deer hurt us," said Coles. fawn counts are down from the average. The storm came at the peak time for fawning, and it was a critical time for does. Deer fawn counts are down, and I feel we lost both does and fawns. Recent storms should improve hunting conditions. The range is in excellent condition despite the fact it had been dry previous to the storms Buck only hunting dominates the southern region which will also cut down success. Northeastern Region Deer populations in the Northeastern Region are comparable to 1974, says Game The Manager Bob Nielson. deer are still pretty high, and unless these storms bring them down, hunting will be tough," he said. Hunters should be prepared for bad weather. If traveling to remote areas, thev should take plenty of gas, two spare tnes and chains," Nelson cautioned We also stress that they tell friends or relatives where thev are going, using a lake or road for a landmark. Its awfullv difficult finding someone who just tells friends theyre goint area Wc to the Ashley-Daggeneed exact locations. Nielson reminded hunters to be suie of their targets and alerted them to ask permission to hunt on private iands. Southeastern Region Success is expected to be lower than in past seasons on several Southeastern Region units, says Clark Warren, law ei forcement and information and education officer. Populations are down on several units, and on others deer are scattered. Good fawi crops are reported on several units w hich should help hunting pick up in the future. Conditions vary.

Mayor Kuhni will resign his position as mayor at the next city council meeting Oct. 22. Kuhni said that economic considerations dictated his move. Arlin V. Mayor Kuhni was elected to a term in 1973, thus his term will not expire until 1977. For most of the past year he has also served as city manager, a position to which the four-yea- r full-tim- e council appointed him. He resigned that position some time ago, and much controversy has ensued as to whether that type of government for the city was the best thing. Some iiave felt that a city manager could best handle the everyday problems which a city faces and e that a person was needed to take advantage of and be knowledgeable with all the various financial opportunities which are available for cities. Others have felt that a mayor and council on a part time basis, which the city has had for many years, could best cope with the problems within the limited financial resources which the city has to hue personnel. Several letters to the editor have expressed both sides of the question and public meetings have addressed themselves to the subject. At any rate, the city has not had a e manager since Kuhni resigned that position recemiy. The Kuhni family will move to Orem, where plans call for Arlin to continue his studies towards a masters degree. Meanwhile, the city council, after accepting the mayors resignation, may appoint an acting mayor to fill the unexpired term of the retiree They may also appoint an acting mayor for a shorter penod of time. A councilman said that the decision as to what to do had not been made, nor would it be until after the resignation. Kuhni also said he may continue as mayor until the first of November. A mayor could be appointed from the ranks of the presenl city council, but it is not requned that the appointee be a member of the council. Three new councilmen will be elected on November 4 and the council may delay action on a full-tim- full-tim- Arlin Kuhni PTA Facts Your Support Needed Now! What is PTA?

Cloward, 509 Fern Drive, Clearfield, Utah 84015. This method is not new, but it is not widely known either. More hunters should know about it. I read it in a magazine a few years ago, and I will never waste my time again tediously tugging and scraping at a dangling carcass to piy oft a pelt. Recipe: Heres w hat you need . . . besides a sharp knife. One diessed deer One golfball size rock, or an actual golf ball One foot lorg piece of baling wire Pliers Two pieces of nylon rope One dean drop cloth One truck (anv automobile will do OK) One anchor another truck, auto, tree, or stump Preparation: Cutting Continue cutting the belly cut all the wav up the neck to the throat Cut the skin completely around the neck at the throat, and peel the neck skin down to the shoulders Make the usual circuitous tuts around each shank, and slit the skin up the inside center of each leg Lay the carcass on the clean drop cloth, head towards the anchor. Tieing Center the rock under the fur side of the neck skin flap and bend the pelt back around the rock. Secure it like a knob with two wiaps of wire around the neck twisted very tightly Secuie one end of the long rope to this knob and the other end to your truck. Make a balanced tie of head and both front legs (through the knee) with one end of the other rope, and tie the other end to your anchor.
