Duck Hunter
Uses Blank Cartridges

Boston, Jan. 22-(AP)-Boston has
a duck hunter who boasts that in
1895 consecutive days of duckhuAt-
ing within the city limits he has
fired approximately $4,000 shots and
never killed a duck-por even hit one.
He is David Mahoney of Brighton,
who spends eight hours a day pa
trolling the Chestnut hill reservoir
firing off blank shotgun cartridges
whenever, ducks, seagulls and other
birds attempt to light on the water.
Y The metropolitan district commission
hires him to scare away the birds to
prevent pollution of the reservoir.
Mahoney says the only complaint
against his gunplay was made some
time ago when man and his wife
burst into the waterworks pumping
station near the reservoir with the an
nouncement that there was a crazy
man with gun out there"
