                  MEMO FOR THE  RECORD

                  SUBJECT:   Soviet Hunting Societies


                       1.   At the request of C/SR/CI on 29 July 1964, efforts were made
                   to assemble availbble information on soviet hunting clubs or societies.
                   The following sources were tapped:

                             a.  Defectors -
                                  1)  Deryatin - he is on leave and unavailable.  The index
                   to DR-2 and SR CE-2 reports was reviewed, but no pertinent reports
                   found.
                                  2)1- contacted by phone. He stated that he
                   has no information on the subject.  he never belonged to one, and had
                   been hunting only once in his life.  He did not feel that a discussion
                   in person would be fruitful since arthing  else he might way would be
                   a 'poor guess.
                                  3)I- Contacted in person by Bob Steele,
                               had no iormation. At the age of 14 he had known a hunter,
                   ut  t hat   the extent of his contact with the sport.
                                  4)  Victor Petrov - Peter Kapusta acquired a four page
                   commentary from Petrov and possibly another defector colleague.  It
                   is being translated by Serge Savitskiy.
                                  5)  Artamonov - Contacted by Peter K#apusta in person.
                   Peter will write up the conversation and provide it today early.

                             b.  The manual of library acquisitions was reviewed and the
                   only noted periodical relating to hunting was Okhota i Okhotnich'ye
                   Khozyaystvo which published monthly.  The July 1964 issue was borrowed.
                   A Soviet book listing all(?) periodicals was checked and no publications
                   on hunting were found under the sections which included sport and
                   Hunting.

                             c.  A review of the past twelve issues of the Survey of the
                   Soviet Press turned up an item about Turkann SSR intensiying  controls
                   on hunting weapons.  Copy obtained.

                   to Westout and picked up Xerox copies of several document    ne of which
                   listed requirements for obtaining a hunting license       w   an original
         61' 7ff .instruction booklet furnished by the manufacturer with 34 shotg -ns.

                   buthe could suggest only an Intellofax run.  Hunthly is on leave.
