Beaverhead Legion Pushes Game Law Change For Armistice Observance
At a Beaverhead Post American Legion meeting held after a Metlen hotel banquet, members proposed changes to state game laws to broaden Armistice and Memorial day observances. The plan seeks an October 10 to November 10 or November 15 to December 15 big game season and a June 1 fishing season start, aiming to reach the state game commission via Legion channels. A committee including Harold Argen, Wa Bond, C. T. Callahan, G. Urke Baker and Earl Fairbanks will handle the matter, with Armistice day plans including a parade and events involving local groups.
