In RADIO
BY DON GARDNER

MORE than 1S years ago. small group OF
WI Michigan State College students and faculty
advisor interested in wireless sets" met for the
first time to discuss subject they had in COM
rnon-the future of radio as means of entertain
ment and education.
The result was the establishment OF tiny
radio station to which the government had as
signed the call letters WKAR. Its 25O-watt
power was just able TO reach the few citizens
who owned crystal sets in the vicinity and the
luckier ones who sported radios with vacuum
tubes.
Today. station WI<AR stands monument
to those intrepid individuals who saw its pos
sibilities. Its power grew from $50 watts to 500,
then TO 900.

Lou Gevinson has numerous rea-

Branch Boys Club boxing team
which gives every indication OF be-
ing ready for real action next month
in the Golden Gloves tournament.
The new coach and his new team
made an auspicious dual debut last

Emanuel Fontana of Merrick deci-
stoned Emanuel Silverman in the

Merrick from a shutout, but there
after it was Eastern Branch all the

Several bouts particularly were

Cities Role Held Vital
In Fight Against Nazis

HOLLYWOOD, Fla, Nov. 2e-
Louis Brownlow. an authority on
government. declared today that
the cities Of America will have an
important part to play in the strug-
gle against Nazi despotism."
1T is in the cities that the strug-
gle between tyranny and freedom
first broke out" he told the 28th
annual conference of the Interna-
tional City Managers Association.
One of the first acts of the
Hitler government was to suppress
the free organizations OF cities and
city oficials, for he knew that they
could never accept the destruction
OF free speech and free elections on
which his system depended.
Your meeting is based on the
spirit Of unbiased non- partisan ef-
forts toward the improvement of
the public service. and through such
EFFORTS the Democratic system can
operate far more efnciently than
totalitarianism."
Mr.. Brownlow was named chair
man Of the Presidents Committee
on Administrative MANAGEMENT,
which drafted proposals for the
reorganization Of the Federal Gov
ernment.

one days bag through q second

Because most American hunters
do not agree with the Europeans
that game must be high to be
palatable. we give you a trick we
learned from Ray Adams.
1t entails no more labor than
carrying about so pounds Of dry ice
on the trip. After the birds have
cooled. pack them in a paper carton
with small pieces of the "ice. "
wrapped in paper. tucked In here
and there. The birds then may be
carried hundreds Of miles without
spelling.
Others subscribe to the method Of
bleeding the fowl on killing to re-
move the body heat quickly. Then
they must wipe or wash the cavity
to eliminate digestive juices and
carry birds head down without
punching. But they never must be
carried In box or gunny sack.
Pisgah Hunters Do Well.
Two hundred and ninety -seven
deer and seven bears have been
killed as the supervised hunts in the
Pisgah National Forest in North
Carolina reach the midseason mark.
The largest deer weighed $50 pounds.
the top bruin tipped the scales at
the 600 mark and the largest Rus
sian boar was just half that weight.
Waterfowl shooting is to upland
shooting what saltwater fishing is
to stream fishing. The waterfowl
and saltwater fishes can stand the
bright light of publicity, while a
stream or field can lose its quota
of brook trout or quail in several
days.
For that reason we never note
exact locations, although we are
called upon almost daily for detailed
information.

President Howard Shelton cautions
each club to have present its varsity
Ave and two alternates, and to have
ready all fees due before the initial
round opens. Each club must file a
list OF playing members with the
ranking to be followed throughout
the tournament.
AL clubs will contest a single
round. Drawn games will give half
a point 10 each school. The cham
pion is the team that scores the
greatest number of points based on
individual pairings. One team will
receive white men on three alternate
boards as arranged by the tourna-
ment director. Governing rules are

proved by the International Chess

Indicated by the chess editor of

the complete rules for the conduct
of the tournament.
The victorious team will be
awarded a plaque designed by Prof.
Floyd Wirsing of Eastern High. The
individual player to score the high
est number Of points will be termed
the individual chess champion OF
the Washington Interhigh Chess
Association" and be presented

Hunters Increasing Faster Than Ducks
Dry Ice Saves Come on Long Trips

One in every seven of the Ma
tion's nimrods bought a Federal
duck stamp In 1910 so that he
might hunt wild waterfowl. The
sale Of 1,250,000 stamps represent
ed an increase of 13 per cent over
1899. During the same period there
was only an increase of per cent
in the number of waterfowl.
There are more birds this year
the increase being estimated from
6 to II per cent. There also are
more hunters. At this time it Is
impossible to say how many more,
but from the increase In blinds
the total promises to be consider
ably above last year.
Again in 1942 still more hunters
will take to marsh and bay blind,
which causes one to wonder how
long the increase can continue. On
paper 1t Just doesn't work out, but
with old Mother Nature holding

are of little value.

little more than half the season
left, there Is in sight none Of the
type OF weather 1t takes to bring

Break Is Bound to Come.
So 1t is probable the waterfowl
population will continue to mount
again next summer despite increase
in the number of hunters. But
there have been periods in the past
when hunters despaired of ever hav-
ing flights of any consequence again.
There will be such periods in the
