From the
Press Box
Leonard, Nat Slab Star,
Reprooch to Dodgers
BY JOHN LARDNER,



ORLANDO, Fla, March % (N.A.
N.A).-Emil Leonard, the Dutch
man" with the knuckle ball, who
turned in his 30th birthday this
week, IS monument of reproach to
the Brooklyn Dodgers and the poll
cies of Leland Stanford MacPhail,
sheir taciturn kleagle.
1t wasn't MacPhail who pushed
the Dutchman out of the Brooklyn
camp and into the night. That
happened before Leland Stanford
took charge. But MacPhails prac-
-tice of Turing decrepit American
Leaguers into his lodge at any cost,
on the theory that the oldest Amer
lean Lacquer is better than the
youngest National Lacquer, looks
silly in the light Of Leonard's per-
Torrance.
1t isn't really silly. AS general
thing, MacPhail is right. But Leon
ard, Brooklyn outcast, who has
made good in the American League,
Is the living, breathing exception,
and bitter pill for the Brooklyn
hosts to swallow
II am appalled," says Mr.. Mac
Phail, "by the negligence of my
predecessors. Myself, I never would
have let good-looking pitcher like
that get away. It's like dropping
money in the street"

So you have a boat that needs
painting, lots of it. and you are
not sure of just how much paint
to buy.
The National Association of
Engine and Boat Manufacturers
offers the following formulas to
aid in determining paint and
varnish requirements. They are
based on gallons and are for one
coat.
For bottoms-Multiply water
line length of boat by the draft
and then by the factor 35; then
divide the total by 400.

More Than Courage Got
Thot 20-Gome Record

Leonard's persistence bespeaks
courage. and courage Of some sort
a pitcher must have to win 20 games
for sixth place club. as the Dutch
man did last year for Washington
The BROOKLYN outcast has won the
Nationals 80 games in two seasons.
He is the idol of the hot -and- cold
Washington baseball public.
He also is the ace pitcher of Bucky
Harris dark horse" team for 1910.
This is very dark horse, indeed.
Sixth last year, it may we'll be sixth
again. But Mr.. Harris. the ancient
boy wonder, doesn't think so. and
there is some reason to suppose Mr..
Harris is right The Mats have DO
tentlalities that might carry them
as high as third place At worst,
they should finish fifth, a notch
higher than last year.
AS far as the pitching goes. after
you say Leonard you begin to stutter.
Pitching is the perpetual toothache
OF the Washington club. Behind the
Dutchman, Harris has two pro
missing" left-handers named Ken
Chase and Joe Krakauskas who have
been promising for quite a while.
They'll have to deliver soon, or go
back to the end of the line.
There is a stout young right
handler, Joe Haynes, who may well
be winner. There is rookie named
Sid Hudson who has Mr.. Harris
whistling at his work.
Squod Somewhat FIimsy,
But Hos Some Worth
Then there are a lot of fellows
called Wynn. Williams and Carras-
quel. This platoon does not bode
we'll but If Mr.. Harris can find four
steady workmen there, he may 20
places, for the rest of the team has
the makings.
Cecil Travis has moved back to
third base, where he does his best
work, to make room for an expensive
young shortstop named Jimmy Po-
tahl. Pofahl can do everything but
throw we'll This sounds like a fairly
important drawback, but Mr.. Harris
insists that Pofahl will do. Blood
worth or Myer at second, Wasdell or
Vernan at flrst-they're all pretty
good ball players.
Buddy Lewis, the powerful third
baseman, now is in the outfield,
where he looks good. Out there with
him are Gerald Walker and George
Washington Case. a puncher and a
sprinter. Rick Ferrell heads the
catching department.
A f1imsy assortment, you say?
Maybe a touch f1imsy, stranger, but
there is youth, speed, and lot of
hitting there. If you know of some
body who is apt to stop you in the
street and bet that Washington
won't finish in the first division, be
ready for him. Garry your wallet
where you can make fast draw.

Hunters Urged to Reduce
Losses of Crippled Birds

The annual loss of crippled or UNI
retrieved migratory waterfowl and
upland game birds is serious drain
on game bird population, the Fish
and Wildlife Service. United States
Department of the Interior, reported
today Although some of these loss
es are considered unavoidable. a
large percentage of them result from
attempts TO bag birds beyond the
effective range of the gun. officials
said. Hunters are urged to wait
until the birds are we'll within range
before firing.
Recognizing the seriousness of
losses from crippled birds, sports
mems organization throughout the
country this year are stressing the
Importance Of ineffective
range shooting. In nation wide adj
vertising campaigns, commercial
firms likewise are acautioning the
hunter against out-of-range shoot
ing.
In an investigation conducted by
the Pennsylvania Cooperative Wild
life Research Unit. it was revealed
that of 63l birds shot by l76 hunt
ers, 202 birds, or 80 per cent, were
lost Extremely long shots result
in many winged birds which prove
difficult to capture. especially in
dense cover, the report Of the in
vestigator stated.
Similar findings were reported
from Iowa in 1888 in study of the
losses of cripples in small game
hunting, This study showed SO per
cent Of the birds shot were lost.
Thus, for each bird actually bag
ged by the hunters observed in this
study another was wounded or kill
ed but eluded the hunters search.
Shooting out-of-range birds prob
ably causes more cripples than any
other single factor the report says.
Undoubtedly many sportsmen unin-
tentionally shoot out of range, it
adds, explaining that some hunters
do not know how large game bird
appears when viewed at a distance
of SO yards. It suggests that mex
perienced hunters might profitably
pace off SO yards and at that dis
lance look at target the size Of
the game bird sought.
Dogs are important in reducing
losses. Pierce E. Randall, who made
the investigation, found that while
experienced hunters crippled fewer
birds than did less experienced
sportsmen, the experienced hunters
with dogs crippled and lost still
fewer wildfowl
There is no doubt but that the
use Of well-trained retrieving dogs
secures for the sportsman much
game that otherwise would be
wasted Randall declared
Out of group of l76 cooperating
sportsmen, the novice hunters with
out dogs reported the largest loss of
game birds. These hunters lost 46.7
per cent of the birds shot Average
hunters without dogs lost 70, or 1913
per cent, of the l76 birds shot by
this class Veteran hunters without
dogs lost 10 of the II birds shot,
or 1858 per cent
Hunting with dog reduced the
loss of crippled and unretrieved
birds, Randall pointed out. Novices
with dogs decreased their losses to
1868 per cent, average hunters to %. 6
per cent, and veteran hunters tc
1875 per cent.

Restore Wildlife Areas
For Wildlife Use

The rapid decrease of wildlife
during the past half century has
been fastened by the appropriation
for other purposes of millions of
acres that originally produced an
abundance of game, fur bearers, and
fish. Restoring these tracts that are
less valuable for other purposes to
their original function of producing
wildlife has been a principal OBJ
iective of the national wildlife pro-
gram.
For many years waterfowl have
been in precarlous situation. Drain
age of millions of acres has de-
prived the birds Of large areas of
their natural habitat, and improved
roads and better means of trans
portation have made it easier to
hunt them. The birds each fall
have had TO run the gauntlet of in
creasing numbers of hunters and, in
addition. throughout the year they
have TO withstand unpreventable
natural losses from predators, dis
ease, and drought.
Careful estimate shows that l20,-
100000 acres of former waterfowl.
habitat have been taken from use
by agriculture, manufacturing. and
other industries. 1t has been figured
that about 100000 acres of marsh
land. properly distributed through
out the continental United States,
will take care not only of the exist
ing population of migratory water
fowl but of considerable increased
population. and thus insure the re-
turn of d breeding stock to the
northern nesting grounds sufficient
to maintain the population. The BIZ
illogical Survey considers this the
minimum that will insure the flu
ture of the migratory waterfowl
population of this country.
Beyond the 100000 acres it has
not been possible to look. Should
the population of migratory water
fowl greatly increase, additional
acreage might be needed in the
southern states for wlntering
grounds. and of course additional
nesting grounds in the breeding ter
ritory are always desirable At the
acres of refuge areas primarily suit
able for waterfowl or in the process
of restoration have been secured
Another 100000 acres has been Sc
sured either by transfer or by pur-
chase principally for upland and big
game. but some Of this land has sec
ondary waterfowl potentialities.
