He said he would bring it back the next day. I hesitated, but remembering that Indians are said never to betray a trust that is reposed in them, I let him take the knife. Next day he came back smiling and grateful, and we both felt good My (By Blanding Correspondent) senior students were graduated at exercises, Friday evening, at the San Juan Their high school auditorium.

All streams, lakes and reservoiris accessible to travel by the ttucks before day will receive a nor-namount of legal and larger trout Carrying capacity and fishing pressure are the chief it. let factors governing mining the number of tiout released nto individual waters Fish and Game Department Director J. Perry Egan said of the fisheries program this year, good fishing Prospects for a season are bright. We expect to qual or exceed last year's plant of over tw million' legals and some 15 million fry and fingor-bn- g onto the waters of our state. He noted several reasons for an optimistic forecast. They a good average water table, near normal weather resulting in a minimum winter loss, improved and enlarged facilities at several of the hatchutilization of new fish eries, foods, and the continued hard work of the employees in this division. Egan asked that fishermen respect the rights of landowners when afield during the seasons ahead. He said that much of the best trout water may be lost to sportsmen unless such rights are respected by the year-- 1 increasing numbers of license buyers. Planting of legals will contin-- 1 ue throughout the season, which closes Oct. 12 this year. Stock-car- e mg of fry and fingerling trout in the high country will progress ai opt-nin- with the season, mostly by pack train. High waters in the Uintah and Ecsalante mountains open June to on 27. hours are 5.00 a. m. p. m. daily. Legal size trout is seven inches. Bag Fishing 9 00 and possessions limits are same, seven pounds andor one fish. which ever is caught first, or 12 fish. Common Questions Regarding Fishing licenses Questions regarding this year continue coming to the Utah Fish and Game department. Answers to some of these most frequently asked are listed as follows by department spokesmen: When will the 1953 licenses be available? They should be in the hands of all license vendors by the last of may. Must I have a license to angle in the waters that are now open? You must have a license to angle at all times in any water open to fishing. What license do I use to go fishing? The- Commission ruled that anyone have a fishing and hunting combination license for 1952 may use that license until the 1953 license are available. What if I have no 1952 license? Anyone having no 1952 fishing or combination license may purchase from a vendor a temporary fishing permit. Such a permit is redeemable at face value on the regular license when available. The special permit is for those who lost their 1952 license, or who have reach-stated 12 years of age this year, or have moved into the state, The spokesman noted that me-l- y tal deer tag will be issued with the big game combination fish- this ing and hunting licenses year. They remind sportsmen to for their tags until the fall hunting seasons as no one may hunt deer without a tag. A Flag Thats Solo: Free Lorraine Jones about it.
