TIME OUT By Frank Adams LOOKING OVER THE OUTDOORS ERNEST S. (JIM) JEMISON, ASSIST- ant manager of Sabine National Wildlife Refuge at Hackberry for the past two years, has been named manager of the sprawling Tishomingo refuge in southern Oklahoma, effective Jan. 30. Located on the northern tip of Lake Texoma, Tishomingo is an important stopping point for waterfowl during the fall migrations. Jemison joined the US.

Fish and Wildlife Service in 1960 and served as Lacassine National Wildlife Refuge at lAke Arthur. In 1962. he was transferred to Wheeler Refuge in Alabama and returned to Louisiana to take the post at Sabine in December, 1964. Jemison expects to leave for Oklahoma shortly, with his wife, Dolly, and their two sons, Rusty and Robby. PERSONNEL CHANGES ALSO HAVE been made in the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission.

Sam Murray, of Springs, has boon elevated to the post of assistant to director Dr. Leslie L. Glasgow. He will handle public- relations duties in the new post. For the past eight months Murray has been supervisor of the commission's Education Division, in direct charpe of the popular school lecture program Succeeding Murray in the education post will be Al Carver, of Ferridav.

LOUISIANA SPORTSMEN CELEBRAT- rd a major last when a New Orleans judge ruled that the Wildlife and Fisheries Commission has full authority to yet deer hunting regulations on the state's game management It reamins to he seen, however, iuM how much deer hunters will benefit by the decision by District Judge Richard J. Ciar- vcy. It is one thing for the commission to have the authority; another for the seven man board to use it properly. TOO OFTEN. THE BOARD HAS bowed to political pressure in preference to carrying out the sound programs nTnmmcmi- rd by its biologists In recent years the commission has alibied its actions in closing or curtailing hunting seasons on various with the argument that its authority was not clear.

Judge Garvpy. however, has made it plain that the commission alone "has absolute control and authority concerning the use of the lands." The jurist further stated that granting the relief sought by Morchouse Parish officials "would be jeopardizing the purpose for which the preserves were This means, purely and simply, that if adequate seasons are not provided for the proper harvest of deer on the management areas in the future, the commission alone will be responsible. There is no more room for passing the buck. TO HUNTERS IN THIS SECTION OF Louisiana, the most important question is what effect the decision will have on West Bay GMA in Allen Parish. During the recent hunting season, the commission bowed to pressure from the Allen Parish Police Jury and changed the regulations previously set for the area.

Instead of opening with a one-day any-deer season, the commission set four days of bucks only hunting and, in a monumental goof, limited the last day to "antlerless deer" only. COMMISSION BIOLOGISTS HAD warned that West Bay was overpopulated with deer. In a report which the commission never bothered to read, the technicians were blunt: "West Bay needs herd reduction. The presently set, half-day either sex season will probably not take more deer than the annual increase." The summary went on to say that a kill of from 400 to 800 deer could be expected and added: "While a kill of 400 far too few. a kill Fenton and Flournoy in La.

Afterwards, that team was called "the point a minute squad." The Tigers went through 10 games undefeated and untied. They scored 442 points and gave up only 11. Fenton, called the Blond Terror, accounted for more than 25 per cent of the LSU points in 1908. He kicked 36 extra points a school and had a total of 125 points. He also booted six field goals, a school record until Doug Moreau kicked 13 in 1964.

Fenton took the snap, faked a handoff to a back, then gave the ball to one tackle and led the interference over the other tackle slot. Fenton, now in his mid-SOs, lives in Baton Rouge. After a a ion from LSU he coached at high schools in Baton Rouge and was also a star semipro baseball player. Flournoy was born in Canton, prepped at Rugby Academy in New Orleans, and entered Tulane in 1922.

Tall, rangy, agile and fast, he was a great kicker but also starred in all other phases of football. Clark Shaugnessy was Flournoy's coach at Tulane. In December 1965 he wrote from Los Angeles to Harry Martinez, sports editor of The New Orleans States-Item. "I feel absolutely certain that he (Flournoy) was the best punter in the history over American football.
