1 item: 66-pp. transcript of Marshall Berges' interview of Otis Chandler. He offers the interviewer his thoughts about big game hunting and what he calls "trophy hunting." It is not made clear but it seems the interviewer and Mr. Chandler were riding cross-country on his Oregon land. Notations at top of each page read Side 1 through Side 3 - probably tape sides.
