Fish Or Foul Deals Shape State Game Plans
A Kansas controversy over a Marais des Cygnes game refuge centers on condemnation of 7,000 acres including land held by two gun clubs. Courts upheld state power, but the U S Supreme Court found no jurisdiction in the gun clubs’ appeal. The Fish and Game Commission, led by Dave Leahy, quietly dropped the clubs from the preserve and rehired Leahy by a 4-2 vote. Critics question a possible deal, though Leahy says the clubs’ land is no longer needed.
