BALTIMORE. Nov. 3-Maryland
hunters opened fire today-some as
early as sunrise-in the 194l duck
hunting season, matching wits
against the wild fowl and marks
manship against winged flight.
The hunting season began at SUM-

ing until pm. BY the calendar
it started yesterday, but no hunting
Is permitted on Sundays.
Hunters, out for wild geese which
also can be legally hunted until De-
cember 81. took to their blinds en-
couraged by reports from State
Game Warden E. Lee LeCompte
that prospects were very good this
year.
The bag limit on wild ducks is
not more than 10 in any one day.
This may include canvasback ducks
but not more than one wood duck.
The bag limit on wild geese is three.
The possession limit on wild ducks
is not more than 20 in any one

season. Robert M. Stotler, 10, of
Keedysville died last night at
Washington County Hospital of
wounds suffered Saturday while he
was hunting near his home. Police
said his gun discharged accidentally,
wounding him in the stomach.
The outset of the duck hunting
season brought a controversy at
Aberdeen over blinds on the Sus-
quehanna Flats belonging, to Brig.
Gen. John B. Rose. commanding
officer of the Aberdeen Proving
Grounds, and James L. Earring,
Aberdeen ducking guide.
Maryland ducking laws stipulate
that duck blinds in that section be
at least 500 yards apart, but the two
blinds are but 20 yards apart. At
issue also in injunction proceedings
brought in Hartford County Circuit

jurisdiction over waters beyond the
low-water mark at the proving
grounds.
Mr.. Earring petitioned for an in
junction, naming Gen. Rose and
Warden lie Compte as defendants,
to force removal of Gen. Roses
