Show THREE THOUSAND CAME WARDENS With .t.iOo duly appointed game wardens war-dens ranging the happy hunting grounds of the state. Inspecting lunch baskets, game bagn, snake bite equipment equip-ment and other paraphernalia, Utah's elusive fish and game laws are liable to be enforced the coming season if by nothing more than the press of numbers. The immediate appointment appoint-ment of that number of gnme warden depuiles Is not probable but optimistic members of the local association who assisted last evening in the organization organiza-tion of the Weber County Fish and Gnme Protective association, state that they anticipate fully that a number num-ber of Utah nlmroada will be enrolled in an official capacity this year. The meeting held last evening in the commissioners' rooms at the court house was for the purpose of organizing organiz-ing mich an association as is needed in this locality for the proper enforcement enforce-ment oi the fish and game laws. Officers were elected and arrangements arrange-ments were completed for further meetings to be held, at which a complete com-plete board of directors for the surrounding sur-rounding towns may be selected Oscar Crouch was elected president of the new organization. There will be twelve directors on the board, representing rep-resenting Ogden. Huntsvllle. Liberty, Eden. North Ogden. Plain City, Hooper Hoop-er and Uintah. Sam .lost was elected a director to represent Ogden. Upon May 21, a meeting will be held at the court house at 2 p. in. for the purpose of electing the directors to represent the localities mentioned and a full attendance of sportsmen from those sections Is desired. State Game Warden Fred W. Chambers Cham-bers and Warden J. C. Smith of Murray, Mur-ray, district No. 2, Davis county, were present at the meeting last evening and offered various suggestions regarding re-garding the organization which was formed. These gentlemen stated that In their opinion the formation of such associations associa-tions throughout the state will mean the solving of many fish and game problems In Utah, "Most of these deputy wardens." said Mr. Chambers, "will be sportsmen of the right sort, who have the enforcement en-forcement of the fish and game laws at heart and who. In the course of their day's sport, will also havo an eye out for those who overstep the regulations by hunting or fishing without with-out proper licence or who exceed th? limit as prescribed by law. "These local associations are be-,ing be-,ing formed all over the slate and the, memberships are frowine into large figures. I have little doubt that there I may bu ns many as 3000 deputies enrolled en-rolled before the close of the coming season." |
