GAME COMMISSIONER
LAUDS POLK SPORTSMEN
John D. Findlay, commissioner
of game and inland fisheries, in
a recent letter to Charles C. West
of the Polk County Wildlife club
referred to the recent trip he and
members of the fish hatchery com
mittee made to Polk County to in
spect available sites for the pro
posed smallmouth bass hatchery
and had this to say:
“We enjoyed seeing you very
much even though our visit was
entirely too short. One or two of
the board members were somewhat
uneasy while travelling those Polk
County highways in Mr. Story’s
4-wheel-drive truck, but they were
all very much impressed with the
interest and enthusiasm of the
sportsmen of your county. They
are a group of real fellows, if
what we met was a good sample
and I certainly hope that we will
have an opportunity to meet with
them again soon.’’
