RETIREMENT OF J. D. DONDERO 



Mr. J. D. Dondero, captain of patrol, retired from the California 

 State Division of Fish and Game, October 30, 1942, having completed 

 25 years of service. 



Appointed a deputy in 1917, Dondero served in that capacity until 

 1927 when he was advanced to a captain. He has always been head- 

 quartered in Lake and Humboldt counties, and because of his ability to 

 make keen observations, Mr. Dondero is considered one of the best 

 informed men on fish and game matters in that area. 



It is the sincere wish of the entire Division that Captain Dondero 

 will enjoy his well earned leave from public life. — L. F. Chappell, Chief 

 of Patrol, California Division of Fish and Game.
