Utah Rebbifs to Play Dixie at St. George, Friday, Nov. 6 - by Kenneth Lovell This coming Friday, November 6, the Delta Rabbits football team will play a post-season exhibition game with Dixie at St. George. Dixie phoned Delta Monday and asked if we could possibly play them. It is quite a tribute to our fine team, to be picked to play Dixie's Flyers. Dixie is one of the top football powers in Utah and they are in the state semi-finals this year. This would be the last game for our departing seniors, and Coach, Horlacher says that he will give the Seniors, for the most part, all a good chance to play. The players are glad to have this game on the agenda and it should be a good one. . .'. The money Delta gets from this game will go towards a new wrestling wrest-ling ,mat which costs upwards of $1,000.. Should Delta be able to get this mat it would mean that the slate, wrestling finals would possibly, pos-sibly, be held here in Delta in a year or so. Let's not forget that it will soon be wrestling time at Delta High and we. always seem to be strong .in this sport. So, let's all support our mat-men, both in attendance at the matches and in any donations dona-tions toward the mat that you feel you can give. .

Once again, all hunters were re minded to respect the rights of the private landholder where nearly 100 of all pheasant hunting takes place. The law, as written on each fish and game license, decrees that it is illegal to trespass upon private property at any time without the express permission of the landholder landhold-er or person in charge of such lands. Spokesmen noted that much has been gained during the past three years to better these problems through the work of the State Triangle Tri-angle Committee. This committee is now functioning function-ing on the state, county and local level in an effort to better the problems pro-blems of private land use for hunting hunt-ing and at the same time project an equitable harvest of the fish and game resources produced on these lands. On each level of operation the committees are composed of representatives repre-sentatives from the organized landholders, land-holders, organized sportsmen and department personnel. In meetings held throughout the year, the problems common to such use of private lands are discussed and solutions arrived upon to better them. One outgrowth of these meetings has been printing and availability of several triangle committee signs calling attention to the law, the us" of land as the individual landholder land-holder desires it to be and the ob- . ligation of the sportsmen going a-field a-field upon such land. These signs are available through farmer and department offices over the state. Department Director Harold S. Crane urged landowners to use these signs and reminded each sportsman of the trespass laws and the need to observe and rospect all signs if hunting upon private lands Is to continue in the future.
