HUNTING
According to Izaok Walton

The 1885 regulations for the
hunting of waterfowl are very lit
tie different from the restrictions
of last year, the complete protec-
ton of brant along with canvas
back and redhead being the most
drastic.
It is the consensus Of opinion
that the majority of duck hunters
are well satisfied to see these
birds placed upon the tabooed list.
It is a recognized fact in most all
Atlantic Coast sections that the
redhead and canvaSback have dis
appeared so fast lately that COM
plete protection several years ago
would have been the easiest sal
walton of the species.
Drainage projects as we'll as the
drouth of the past several years
have also had a deleterious effect
upon the breeding grounds OF these
birds.
It extended this year, even to
the lower Canadian provinces in
the central area. All other sections
of Canada had a duck crop in
keeping with other good breeding
years, some species having been re-
ported as having shown a decided
increase.
The Audubon Society, which for
the past two years has stood and
fought for a closed season on all
waterfowl, does not mean that
there should never be another open
one, as so many hunters think
would be the case if they have
their way. 1t does maintain, and
statistics in way bear them out,
that it is bound to come sometime,
so instead of delaying why not do
it now.
They claim that the annual kill
must be more than sharply cur
tailed, otherwise the next genera
ton will class the duck with the
dodo bird.
The Biological Survey does not
see the need Of a completely closed
season for q year or two, as does
the Audubon Society, but they do
think the present restrictions
necessary. Time alone will tell
which is right and whether we
may expect to ever get back a
Semblance Of the former glorious
flights.
The claim is made that the re-
Strictions brought about a slight
increase this year, and that the
same will hold true for the next
breeding season. But to hurry
this slow process along the real
sportsman can do his part by re-
fusing to take advantage of the
few days offered him in which he
may shoot at the few pitiful rem
nantS Of the flights that we have
had for the past three years.

Of defense is tackling and Young

the line. Any time this boy gets
a clear shot at a ball carrier the
advance ends abruptly.
George Brown from Freeport,

but he weighs ITS pounds and
stands six feet in height and he
loves to play football. He has a
habit OF being in the right place

good football player who can play
anywhere along the line. He
weighs 200 pounds but he is plenty

where. One thing is certain about
American University. Just as long
as Walter Young is in command
the teams will play high grade
football regardless of whether
their efforts are rewarded by vic.
tory or whether superior man
power in the opposition will prove
too much for them.
The Washington times., 1936-10-10

Let's see what happened to some
of the bright prospects Of Ameri-
can University. Walter Dick, who
was one of the country's leading
scorers last year, married and left
school. Chick Yackel, who was
highly rated as a line man, also
surrendered to the guiles of Cupid.
Benny BenScotter, 215 tackle,
heard the call of Nittany'S Lion
and transferred to Penn State.
AL Hanawalt, a sophomore last
year who showed more than usual
promise, is coaching football at
Lingnan University in Canton,
China. Jim Apologize was in
jured but has shown fine spirit
and is now managing the team.
Some Boys Are Good
Now there is a casualty list that
might bring tears to the eyes and
means to the lips Of any coach in
the country but the boys at Ameri-
can University are making the
best Of it.
And now let's see what Walter
Young has from which to mould a
football team. Some of the boys
are pretty good, and before the
end Of the season when Hampden-
Sydney college plays everything
may be all right.
Two rivals of their high school
days are playing in the backfield.
Sparky Bartlett, who weighs 165
pounds, is right good halfback.
He is one of those looSe-hipped
kids who fights until down. He
is a SharpShooter with a forward

Bartlett's school days rival is
Hal Toner. He is a right good
kicker and a powerful plunger
but his finest work has been done
in blocking.
Lack of weight is no handicap
to Ralph Rabbit Winslow. This
Chicago kid weighs all of 145
pounds but with Toner clearing
