THE LEAGUE OE AMERICAN SPORTSMEN.

tion of game, and think it a step in the right 

 direction. I am anxious to help and think 

 that with such an organization we can head 

 off the game hogs and, what are worse, the 

 pot hunters. 



If we could get a few of these hogs to 

 read Recreation it would be a great help. 

 G. A. Humiston, Niles, Mich. 



I am in favor of the L. A. S. and hope 

 you will push it along. Quail shooting is 

 not allowed here this season. Wild turkeys 

 are scarce; also ruffed grouse. Rabbits 

 and squirrels are plentiful and are being 

 shot in large numbers every day. We have 

 a great many hawks here and a few bald 

 eagles; also some big horned owls. 



H. L. Hayes, Warrenton, Va. 



I think the scheme for the L. A. S. is 

 good. I wish to be enrolled as a charter 

 member. Can get many more to join. 

 Recreation is the sportsmen's magazine 

 of the world, no matter what the others 

 may cost or are called. 



E. H. Judd, Ypsilanti, Mich. 



I have read carefully Mr. Lydecker's ar- 

 ticle in October Recreation, and am in- 

 deed glad a movement is on foot to or- 

 ganize the L. A. S. We are greatly in need 

 of such an organization in this section, and 

 see no reason why it should not be a great 

 success from the start. 

 J. S. Stangroom, New Whatcom, Wash. 



We heartily endorse the movement for 

 the formation of a League of American 

 Sportsmen. We know of no better way in 

 which to enforce existing game laws. We 

 have in this State many sportsmen who 

 take the field, out of pure love of sport, and 

 who would heartily co-operate in the for- 

 mation of a State Branch. 



W. H. Bruce, Hartford, Conn. 



I believe the L. A. S. would be a power- 

 ful game protector, and as an educator for 

 the coming generation of sportsmen would 

 be of immense value. Count me in. 



J. C. Smith, Kansas City, Kan. 



I heartily endorse the L. A. S. movement 

 and cannot see how it could fail to be of 

 the greatest possible benefit to the fish and 

 game of our country. 



E. B. Dennett, Portland, Me. 



I shall gladly join the L. A. S., for better 

 game protection. I honor you for your 

 pursuit of that object, and for your position 

 regarding game hogs. 



S. R. Leonard, Kenwood, N. Y. 



All the sportsmen I have talked with arc 

 heartily in favor of the L. A. S. 



W. S. Allen, Jackson, Mich. 



I am delighted with the way you give it 

 to the meat hunters, and every true sports- 

 man will support you. 



G. W. Hollingsworth, Lansdale, Pa. 



I am much pleased with Recreation and 

 watch with interest correspondence in re- 

 gard to forming a League of American 

 Sportsmen for protection of game and fish. 

 It is needed. 



D. K. Smith, Kansas City, Mo. 



The L. A. S. is the thing, in my opinion. 

 The game hog must go, the sooner, the 

 better. A. E. Woodell, Danville, Va. 



Mr. Lydecker's plan for a L. A. S. has 

 my hearty approval. 

 Dr. Robt. W. Eastman, 140 W. 76th St. 



I wish I might enjoy a handshake with 

 you, for roasting the game slaughterers as 

 you do. 



Wm. T. Critchley, Chelsea, Mass. 



' We want Canada in the L. A. S. too; and 

 what is done needs doing quickly or we 

 shall have no game to protect. 



James Fullerton, Ten Sleep, Wyo. 



The League of American Sportsmen is a 

 good thing and you may count me in. I 

 like the way you roast the hogs. 



T. J. Buchanan, Huntington, Ind. 



Put my name down for the L. A. S. Give 

 it to the game hogs. 



John Coolbaugh, Wilkesbarre, Pa. 



Let us have the L. A. S. I will be among 

 the first to join. 



W. Peterson, Haywards, Cal. 



The L. A. S. is all right. Push it along. 

 Emil C. Sixta, Manitowoc, Wis. 



AH who join the L. A. 5. before June 

 1st will be enrolled as charter members. 

 Send in your dollar at once. 



I will esteem it a personal . favor if you 

 will send me the names and addresses of 

 all the sportsmen you know, who are not 

 yet readers of Recreation. 



Always mention Recreation when an- 

 swering ads.
