brant season on Long Island; takes
OF half a month from the opening Of
the rail season up State and on Long
Island; one month from the opening
Of the plover and yellowleg season up
State; half a month from the close
Of the woodcock season up State
and half a month from the opening
Of the season on Long Island; one
month from the close Of the jacksnipe
season up State and two months from
the close of the season on Long ISL
and, and one month from the close of
the season on coot and galllnule on
Long Island.
Complaint will come from New
York city and Long Island gunners,
where the Federal regulations on
duck, goose and hrant cut fortnight
from the opening Of the season and
the State law cuts half a month
from the end Of the season. There
will be no objection to the later Fed
eral opening of the season, but much
criticism will be made Of the cutting
Off the end of the season by the
State statute.
Concerning these Federal regula-
lions GEORGE d. PVArr, Conservation
Commissioner, in his last report to the
Legislature said, In urging uniform
seasons;
The Federal regulations have been
worked out by competent biologists and
f1eld naturallsts to give the proper pro-
lection to migratory birds. and the COM
mission recommends that the New York
State laws be made to conform in all
respects to these Federal regulations.
Aside from the cooperation that this
will mean with the national Govern
ment. confusion in the minds Of hunters
will be prevented"
Sixty-nine per cent. OF the reports
OF game protectors, forest rangers and
fire observers last year showed that
wildfowl are on the increase in New
York State. Thus there Is no need
to deprive New Workers and Long
Islanders Of half months sport at a
time when It Is ut its best, and I'M
doubtedly pressure will be brought
upon members Of the Legislature and
the Government as soon as the new
session meets to extend the duck,
goose and brant shooting on Long
Island until the end Of January.

large scale by the British. Partial
attacks were repulsed. Their first
onslaught broke down before our bat
tie position. We recaptured portions
Of strips Of territory. Their attacks
collapsed completely with heavy loss

against the rest Of the front broke
down with heavy losses to the

Columbus took the count in one of
the scrappiest basketball games of the
season at the high school gymnasium

crowd since the opening of the gym
witnessed the game. They were
packed around the side lines, on the
stage and in the gallery. About $50

Columbus did not seem to have a
show. They were handicapped no
doubt by the size of the floor. Water

The first half started with a rapid
scuffie for possession of the ball and

goal. Earl Archie pushed the ball
through the ring in the tie off for the
first count. Columbus retaliated and
Twomy on a fast double ported the
sphere. Then in fast succession Pier

San Luis Rey is one of the old ru-

one of the few traces left in the

when the middle West was given over

church still stands, but the placita and
the arcades, the attendant village and
the tributary fields have vanished with
the old life and the old builders be-

FOUND FOR DEFENDANTS.
Justice Schmutzler Decides Pole Cut
ting Case Saturday.

The case of the Wisconsin Gas and
Electric company of this city against
Arthur, Oscar and Wilhelmina Ben
teri of the town of Emmett for alleged
damages in cutting down electric
power poles adjoining their property
last summer, which had occupied the
attention of Justice Schmutzler last
week, was decided on Saturday in ia
vor of the defendants
The company sued for damages and
the defendants set up the claim that
the company entered upon their prop
erty as trespassers after condemnation
proceedings had been begun by the
plaintiff but before a hearing had
been held in the matter. Therefore
if they were trespassers they could not
claim damages, a view shared by the
justice.
