It is the third such project to have been completed in the past five years. All three are in i F All BigGameMustHaveTag There will be no major changes in the procedures for tagging and reporting the harvest of female deer, black bear and wild turkey during the 1976 hunting seasons. But, for the first time, North Carolina hunters will be required to tag and report their harvest of antlered deer and wild boar as well. According to Dick- Hamilton, Assistant Execu tive Director of the Wildlife Resources Commission, the new tagging procedure works like this. Hunters will receive a tag for each big game animal they are allowed to harvest when they buy their big game or sportsman’s license. When a hunter harvests a big game animal, he must detach the proper tag and attach it to the carcass before it is moved. He must then report the kill to one of the Wildlife Cooperator Agents in the immediate area in which he was hunting. As in the past, Wildlife Cooperator Agents will be located in sporting goods stores, service stations, hunt ing license agents, hunting club headquarters and similar locations. They can be readily identified by a large, yellow and black, diamond-shaped, Wildlife sign. The Cooperator Agent will provide the hunter a Big Game Kill Report Card. The hunter must detach the tag from the animal and affix it to the Kill Report Card. The information whidf: the hunter must supply off®¥e report card includes species, sex, date and county of the kill. The original of the Kill Report Card remains with the Co operator Agent and the carbon is retained by the hunter as his possession permit. Those who are by law exemnt from the big game hunting license or sports man’s license requirement will not be required to tag their kill. They are, however, required to report their kill Ronald Howell Is Candidate; Bruce Briggs May Announce Bruce B. Briggs of Mars Hill, a Madison County Superior Court judge who has , also served in the state Senate ; and as assistant U.S. attorney for the Western District of North Carolina, is almost certain to become the third | Republican candidate for Con gress from the 17-county 11th Congressional District. He has been considered a poten tial candidate for the seat being vacated by Democratic Rep. Roy A. Taylor of Black Mountain for some time, although Briggs says that he ' has not yet made up his mind to the extent that he is ready to make a formal announce ’ ment. ’ There is a possibility that r he will clear his court calendar r within two weeks and resign as a judge for the 24th ’ Judicial District. I William P. Powell, Mayor of Mars Hill, today announced j the formation of a Briggs for ; Congress Committee, which has as its object raising funds to encourage Bruce Briggs to ' run.
