46 DEER KILLED DURING
THREE DAYS OF SEASON
Number Far Below That Report
ed for Similar Period in 1889;
Several Illegal Deer Killed
SEASON ENDS ON FRIDAY

WIN the Qeef season last slipping
by hunters are going to have to make
a concentrated effort if they are to
surpass last years record
Thus far only forty-six deer have
been reported killed to the various
wardens in the territory, while for the
five day season last year there were
about ITO killed.
Those reporting this year, however,
seem to be finding some big ones, one
deer having weighed as much as 233
pounds. Thurl Tower got a 12-point
buck which is probably the largest
one caught. John M. Rhodes, Swanton,
probably had the easiest time. He left
home at 1920, went to a deer crossing
near the cemetery at Swanton and did
not have long to wait to get his g.
point buck. He was back home at
7:45.
The season will close at shutdown
on Friday and perhaps the fall of new
snow will help the hunters and be the
downfall of more deer.
Several Slain Illegally
Illegal killings in both Allegany
and Garrett counties seemed to be the
chief concern of game wardens. Ac-
cording to Joseph A. Minke, regional
warden, his aides reported that in
this county two yearling deer or
spiked bucks and four does had been
found dead in the woods in the first
three days of the season. A spiked
buck was found alive but tangled in
fence near Shallmar Tuesday with
a fracture of the vertebrae. 1t was
shot.
