Another souvenir was Jap's white sail or jacket, which Edward mailed home and then beat in arriving here.

Save Those
Licenses

COLUMBUS, Jan. 11.-Save
those hunting and fishing licenses
they are good for portion OF
1914, warns Conservation Commls-
sioner Don Waters.
Under the provisions of new
law enacted a couple of years ago
dates for expiration of licenses
were changed from the calendar
year. The 1943 fishing license
doesn't expire until midnight FEB
ruary 29, 1914, and last years
hunting license doesn't expire nm
til midnight August 81, 1914.
Conservation Commissioner Don
Waters stated today that just as
soon as the Conservation Commits
sion has made a final decision of
tentative fis hing regulations
adopted at it's December meeting,
that the fishing digests, which are
small folders carrying the abbre-
waited laws and regulations, would
be printed and would be ready for
shipment to license dealers when
the 1914 fishing licenses are ship
ped few weeks hence.
1t is hoped to ship licenses and
digests in plenty of time to get
them on sale we'll in advance of
March l when they are needed by
all anglers.

Entry blanks have been printed
and circulated. The blanks can
be obtained from Mr.. Mondy in
the Willys-Overland plant, Bowl

1t goes without saying, that
the Local IL unit is backing the
classic 100 per cent. So fellow
bowlers give it your whole hearty
support and boost the offair as
much as possible.
We certainly can prove to our
public and ourselves that this
tourney can and will be the "big"
event Of the year.
There will be a special meeting
of the tournament committee in

your strike spot, although
many quite proficient bowlers
start the ball just a trifle to
the left of their strike spot when
bowling at this leave. Here again
the angle must be changed from
that used in bowling the first ball.
No. IA presents a real problem
because of the distance between
the 8 and 9 pins. This spare can
only be made by having the ball
strike the 8 pin full and carry
into the 9. although on rare oc-
casions it is made by means oil a
very strong hook which just barely
contacts the 3 on the right-hand
side sufficiently to tip it over, the
hall taking hold again after beng
only slightly deflected to the right
and moving to the left enough TO
carry off the 9. Many bowlers
who fail to realize that these two
nins are more than 20 inches apart
center to center, are often-times
surprised when they bowl over the
No. 8 pin and leave the .. lheSe
pins are so far apart that at times
a hook ball will miss the 3 on the
right and yet carry off the D.
The 2-s Leave
The set-up shown in chart NO.
14-A is converted into spare
easier by right-handed bowlers
than is No. Ia for the simple
reason that the right handler shoots
his spare from a more natural spot
and angle than he can the 3-9
leave. In bowling at the 2-S the
hook ball bowler must be careful
not TO have his ball strike the z
pin to the left of the center of the
pin, in fact, the hook ball should
strike the 2 pin half or three
quarters full on the right hand
side, for here again we are con-
fronted with more than 20 inches
between the center of the two pins
The set-up shown in chart No.
Is, the 4-7-S, can be made by haV-
ing the ball strike the No. A pin
full or between half and three
quarters full on either side. How
ever, too thin a hit on either the
right or left-hand side of the A
pin will naturally leave either the
7 or 8. 1t is therefore at all times
advisable to drive the ball either
three-quarters or full into the a
pin.
The foregoing applies likewise
to chart No. 16. Here, however,
the spare being on the right-hand
side it is most advisable to start
your ball at distance consider
ably to the left Of where you start
your strike ball. No. II is a three
pin leave the 2-4-7. This leave is
messed-up many a time because
Mr.. Average Bowler fails to shoot
in line with the spare or take de-
Election into consideration. This

Deer Get
Good Sfurf

LANSING, Jan. 10.-Because of
mild weather and lack of deep
snow during December, Michigan's
deer herd is getting a good start
for the winter, according to con-
servation game men. Although
deer are reported close to winter
yards and swamps, there has not
been enough snow to prevent their
moving around to find food and to
force them into the wintering
areas.
Last year deep snow forced the
deer herd into winter yards late in
November and by the end of De-
cember approximately one-fifth of
the food supply had been con-
sumed. Statewide winter losses
caused by shortages of winter food
were estimated at 10000 dead deer
and were the most severe in sew
eral seasons.

Capture


LANSING, Jan. 11.-Trappers
who have caught what they de,
scribe as weird looking freal
are being adviced by DR.. G. w
Bradt of the state conservation
department that there's nothing
wrong with the creature-it's just
the nature of the beast to look
that way. The animal is the star
nosed mole which few people have
ever seen because it lives under
water, burrows in the mud and
keeps out of the public eye except
occasionally when caught in a
muskrat trap.
The animal is about half as big
as a ground mole with a bright
red tail which is CONSTRUCTED at the
base and swollen to a size almost
as large as the body. This mole
gets its name from about twenty
red feelers that form a star around
its pointed nose. The creatures
eyes are so tiny it has a blind
appearance, and the ears also are
very small. The star nosed mole
is related to the shrew and has
the same savage nature.
There is no wav to tell how
numerous this species is, DR.. Bradt
states, because the animals stay
out of sight, are rarely caught III
trap and are almost never seen
otherwise.

New Coon
Record Set

EAST LANSING, Jan. l1-A
new Michigan coon record of sc
miles for cross country hiking has
been set, biologists at the state
conservation departments Rose
Lake wildlife experiment station
report. An adult male raccoon with
ear tags put on by game men at
Rose Lake in the fall of 1912 was
shot by a hunter two miles east
of Howell.
In travelling so far from Rose
Lake the animal broke the pre-
vious long distance record in Mich
igan made by a raccoon who trav-
eled 27 miles in Allegan county.
A program of tagging and re-
leasing animals is regularly car
ried on at Rose Lake station and
much valuable information on
wildlife is obtained from these ex-
periments. Cooperation of hunters
in returning tags to the conserva-
tion department game division
makes it possible to get this i'm
portant information.

Dispute Gives
Soldiers Venison

MARQUETTE, Jan. 10 - When
two hunters claimed the same deer
during hunting season, Camp
Norris was the winner and soldiers
stationed there had an unexpected
venison feast.
Anton Vittone, Wakefield, and
Arvo Hautila, Bessemer, both
claimed to have killed the same
16O-pound buck. After hours of
argument and threats of court ac-
tion failed to settle the affair, the
disputants called on conservation
officer Kenneth Grant to arbi-
trate. AS neither hunter would
give up the deer or consent to di-
vide it, Grant suggested that the
buck be given to a charitable in
stitution. Vittone and Hautila
agreed to that arrangement and
Camp Norrie was named the recip-
lent.
Although the thwarted nimrods
continued to hunt, neither man
succeeded in getting a buck DUR
ing the remainder of the season.
