Anti-Hunters Could Harm Wildlife
Senator James A. McClure argues that anti-hunting groups aim to ban waterfowl hunting harming wildlife resources and habitat preservation. He notes hunters funded conservation, saved marshland, and paid for government projects, while anti-hunters spend on litigation and media campaigns without habitat investment. The dispute centers on environmental impact statements and court rulings, potentially reaching the Supreme Court.

Fire Destroys Couple's Home in Priest River
Priest River police report a Montana trip ended in disaster as a fire destroyed the Lee Naccaratos home at 109 McKinley. Fire crews arrived quickly after 5 50 am alert by Officer Wally Mitchell and doused the blaze in about 30 minutes causing heavy smoke and water damage. The fire’s origin is undetermined but may have started behind an antique sofa near a second floor stairwell where a wall heater was located. The Naccaratos said they will not repair the heavily damaged residence. Insurance on furnishings is about 10500 and on the house about 15000, likely insufficient to cover losses.
