tioniSm, the program of breeding ground restoration that is now yielding returns.
 Rules Relaxed
 Improved water conditions in most of the breeding areas in the United States greatly helped ir turning out the 1888 crop of wild- fowl. From practically all observers in the north and west have come enthusiastic reports. That these were based on actualities was dein- onstrated when the Bureau of Bio- logical Survey announced the wild fowl hunting regulations-ann ex- tension of from 30 to 45 days in the season, @ possession limit of 20 in- stead of ten, permission to include in days kill an aggregate of three canvasback, redhead, ruddy or buffle head, the species that had been given complete protection because Of their alarming scarcity.
 The number of wildfowl visible on any one particular fyway in the fall hunting season does not determine whether the basic supply is increas- ing or decreasing. The number reaching the breeding grounds in the spring is a most important fac- tor. Excessive shooting may fatally trip the balance in one year: Drouth and other perils on the breeding grounds may wipe out all gains oi the previous year.
 Survey men, managing nine hun. dred thousand acres of restored nesting grounds and following wild. fowl from the arctic coast to tn, widest sections of interior Mexico reported that the survivors of tn, 1887 shooting season showed a per, ceptible increase over 1886. But, no more ducks than ever." In 1890, VI had blank pessimisfn. In 1887, skep tical hope, in 1888, faith that re stored breeding grounds, an ade quate system of refuges along tn flyways and sound regulation O hunting will preserve our water, fowl.

The ducks are coming!

The ducks are coming!
 Winger proof that wildlife restor- ation pays is right now ready to move southward and eastward over the great air highways of North America. The prospects are for a bigger flight than any year since 1929 along all of the four main routes of migration, Pacific, Central, Mississippi and Atlantic.
 A million sportsmen, and more millions to whom the pattern of hurrying focks against the autumn sky is of greater import any day than roast canvasback and bur- gundy, are bearing testimony to the rightness of the Biological Sur vey's wildfowl program.
 In 1883, extinction of the ducks, geese and brant of North America was a dire likelihood. Wildlife goes swiftly through the last stages of its doom. Within ten years, the pas Senger pigeon went from millions to zero. In 1871, buffalo spread over the western plains in dense herds for thousands of miles, their numbers beyond the ken of man. In 1883, the last band was wiped out.
 Pooling Themselves
 For years, legal protection for the buffalo was demendad, and denied. Hunters, the wise old-timers, said: There's still plenty of buffalo: they've just taken another route"
 The route they took was to ob- livion.
 To those of us who had the facts, gathered by hard-working techni- clans of the Bureau of Biological Survey, it seemed to be folly to adopt the advice of either one of the two courses which were chiefly ad- vocated. We might have given the over-optimistic gunners their way, and by continuing the liberal shoot ing seasons and bag limit put an end to all duck hunting in a very short time. Or the urgent appeal of extremists might have been heed- ed, and all waterfowl hunting pro- hibited. Neither proposal seemed either practical or necessary.
 To prohibit all shooting would leave the grounds open to the out law, with no duck stamp funds for patrol, and would alienate the sportsman who, once blind instinct is overcome by practical methods can be a valuable conservation ally
 The hunting season was restricted by regulations which left margin of surplus from the seasons breed ing production, and the critical jot of preserving seed stock began. Al the same time, was launched, in the face of staggering political obstruc-

 New York, November 2.-UP)- For the third time tn his career James Emory Foxx, cherubic first baSeman of the Boston Red Sox, has been named the most valuable player in the American League, it was announced today by the Base- ball Writer Association of America.
 As climax to one of the greatest comebacks of the l900 season Foxx was picked by 19 out of 24 writers three from each city = for the most valuable player award, an honor he won in 1882 and 1888 when he was with the Philadelphia Athletics. Out of a possible 3S6 points, FORK received S04. Of the five writers who did not put him first, two rated him second, one third, one fourth and one fifth
 Because of illness in 1897 Foxx had one of the poorest seasons oi his career and his batting average shrunk 53 points to .285, the lowest figure he ever hit. Hustling like q rookie and even at times ignoring the pain of recurrent sinus trouble, Foxx regained his former glory by leading the American League In bat ting with an average of .34o, in total bases with 308; and in runs batted in with l74. He finished second in home runs with 50, second in runs scored with l39 and third in hits with le7 Runner-Up

catcher and deadly hitter, placed second with 1os points He re- ceived three first place votes, eleven seconds and scattering votes for the other points. Only one committee man failed to place him.
 Hank Greenberg, Detroit Tigers first baseman who hit 58 home runs to come within two of tying Babe Ruth's record, was third with 162 points. He failed to get any first places, but only one writer neglect ed to vote for him.
 Behind those three leaders came Red Ruffing, Yankees, who led the American League pitchers with 21 victories and 2 defeats, 146 points; Buck Newsom of the seventh place St. Louis Browns who was the only American League pitcher besides Ruffing, to win 20 or more games, Ill points; Joe Ditnaggio, Yankees, who batted .324 and drove in 13g runs, 106 points; Joe Cronin, Red Box shortstop- 02 points; Earl Averill, Cleveland, 34 points; Cecil Travis, Washington, 8 points; and Charley 0ehringer, Detroit, who won the 1897 most valuable player award, 27 points.
 One of the tive youngest veterans in the majors = his only rival being Mel Ott of the Giants Foxx at 3l completed his 13th complete sea- son in the American League. He broke in with the Athletics in 1925 at the age of 1T, but was farmed out to Providence Club for half Q sea- son before making good with the As to stay in 1926.
 Natural
 A natural born ball player, Foxx came up as catcher, but was con- verted into Q first baseman in 1928. He also has played at third base on many occasions. Since he became regular he never has failed to bat in 100 or more runs every sea- son. He weighs 185 pounds and is one of the fastest big men in the majors. The Red Sox bought him in December, 1895, for reported price of $150,000.
 Although the Yankees for the second straight year placed second in the individual competition, they amassed more votes than any other team. With eight players getting votes the Tanks collected a total of 4so points. The other players who placed besides Dickey, Ruffing and Dirnaggio were Joe Gordon, Lou Gehrig, Red Rolfe, Frankie Crosetti, and Lefty Gomez.
 The Red Box were second with All points; Detroit third with 198; St, Louis fourth with 129; Cleveland fifth with 113; Washington sixth with 43: Philadelphia seventh with IS; and Chicago last with Is.
