Meet Monday & Practice
Outdoor On TUESDAY

Smith street is being considered as
likely place for the home tilts of
the Crimson and White warriors.
Challenges were received yester-
day by Manager Johnson from Ruth
erford and Railway high schools.
The Rutherford team holds the
championship of the state at the
present time and Railway is rep
resented by a classy combination
and should give Amboy a hard
game.
Locking among the Freshman for
some football material, Coach Wad-
dell has found a number of players
who performed in c%reditable fash
in with the grammar school varsity
team of last year. In this group are
Steve Salacky, Henry Jeroff and
Tony Virgello.
Salacky is a husky and may gain
a tackle berth, while Jeroff played
guard and Virgello performed at
center last season.
Other Freshman Stars
Burke, Pucci. Dublin. Paris and
Russo performed in great style on
the baseball and basketball repre-
sentative teams of the grammar
school last season.
With these additions the athletic
outlook at the state street institution
is bright.

GREAT OUTDOORS
nv PETER p, CARNEY

Small game is on the increase In
all but two states-Texas and Ala
bama-according to information
obtained from the game commits
sioners, hunters are increasing
wherever game birds show an in
crease, and this fall should prove
the greatest from a hunting stand
point that the United States has
ever enjoyed.
Last year hunting licenses were
granted to 4,25S,000 persons-the
greatest number in history, but
these figures will be eclipsed this
season. Thirty-two states have al
ready announced their figures for
the fiscal year and these states have
granted 3,452.220 licenses, which
leads me to believe that the total
number of licensed hunters in the
fall this season will be more than
five million.
Texas reports are that game is at
a s~tandstill and while they claim q
kill of eight million quail in Alabama
yearly they tell us that other game
is not coming along. Georgia, South
Carolina, Virginia, Rhode Island,
New Jersey, Delaware, Utah, Wyo-
ming, South Dakota, New Mexico,
Oklahoma and Kentucky all tell us
that there is more game in these
states than yer before. Kentucky
reports that the quail season should
be the best in ten years ana that
there are more waterfowl thar for
twenty-five years.
Nearly four million rabbits were
killed in Pennsylvania last year, an
increase of a half million from the
year previous. and the increase
should continue this fall. Rabbits
a.l --;J1 tpy,laxt ra tha faUnritnG nf
the Pennsylvania hunters. In West
Virginia wild turkeys are the choice
of the hunters and are plentiful.
There is more game in Pennsylvania
than n state in the union. The
464,137 licenses this year is the best
evidence of this.
More than two million rabbits
We're taken in Ohio last fall, about
the same number in New York, and
about a million and a half in Michi-
gan and there will be just as many
in the woods this fall as ever before,
and in many places there will be
more. Quail, grouse and pheasant
are plentiful in Nebraska and quail
and pheasant are in great numbers
in Iowa. California hunters bag
half million quail each year. Mime
sofa expects a kill of more than a
| quarter million of grouse. prairie
chicken, geese and quail and about
two million ducks, and it is a poor
| year when the kill of deer gets as
low as 10000.
The annual kill of grouse in Mich
igan is about $4,000, ducks about
a half million and coots about a
| quarter million. The Michigan deer
kill runs about $4,000. Louisiana
reports deer, bear, squirrels and
ducks more plentiful than in fifteen
years. New York reports more rab-
bits, grouse and pheasants than ever
before, Vermyont more deer and
small game than ever and New
Hampshire is overrun with deer.
Massachusetts has more pheasant,
grouse and quail and Maryland pre-
diets a great season on waterfowl,
pheasant and ducks. Ohio, Indiana,
Oregon and Idaho are inviting hunt
ers. Indiana reports more quail
than in twenty years.
I have every reason to believe that
this will be a wonderful year for the
mar who likes to hunt.
