sportsmen of Townsend and vicin-

successful outings with no acci-

sure While game has been more
or less plentiful, preparation is
going on for next season. The
division OF game management of
the State Board of Game and Fish
Commissioners has launched
new wildlife survey program as a
guide for future restocking. The
plan divides Delaware into eight
game management study units,
with game warden assigned to
each unit. An important part of
the new arrangement will be a
monthly census of game. From
these reports an annual statistical
report on game conditions will be
compiled. Leonard K. Yerger,
president of the commission, said
these statistics will enable the
board specifically to estimate fu-
ture restocking needs. A check of
activities of game predators and
studies Of the carrying capacity
of farm land for upland game
birds will be made. Edwin M.
