Mudhers Seek
Mascot's Name

The management of the Toledo
Baseball Club was most interested
in the results of the opinion sur
vey conducted by the Toledo Times
several weeks ago, which polled
the public to see if it desired to
change from the name Mudhens.
Final results of the opinion
Grass section revealed approxi-
mately two in favor of a name
change, to every one who preferr-
ed Mudhens. Ordinarily such a re-
suit would instigate a search for
new names. However, after view
ing the surveys taken on the past
presidential election, the Toledo
front office decided that the nick
name "Mudhens" is unquestion-
ably the peoples choice.
With conditions existing as such,
General Manager Bob Evens fig
ured that it is time to announce
he acquisition of his first Mudhen

'mblem of the Toledo ball club in
The future. He's a clever little
amphibian, combination of coot,
rail and mudhen, who'll be very
much in evidence at Swayne Field
next year. The only unfortunate
part is that he cannot yet be act
Ially signed to a contract because
he doesn't have name. Here is
where Toledo baseball fans are
asked to get into the picture.
On Wednesday, December 1st,
opening day tickets will go on sale
eor the 1949 inaugural contest at
Swayne Field, April 10th. This
unusually early date is brought
about the fact that the team man.

ion to many a Christmas shop

Hunters Urged
To Mail Leg Bands

Game management officials of

this week reported that Ohio hunt
ers this year have been cooperat-
ing with the Division of Conserva-
tion game survey program by
sending in an unusually large
number of pheasant Identification
leg bands from birls killed dur
ing the season, however, DR.. E. D.
Martin, chief of the game manage
ment section said today that no
doubt many hunters are still car
rying leg bands in their hunting
coat pockets or have tossed them
aside with the intention of mail.
ing them to the Division but have
failed to do so.
He urged hunters who do have
leg bands to mail them to the
Ohio Division of Conservation
headquarters, 1106 State Office
Building, Columbus Is, Ohio.
Each hunters mailing in the
bands, will received a post card
report showing where the bird was
released and the date. The leg
band check system helps to de-
termine the movement of the birds,
the number of years they have
been able to dodge the hunters
shot, and the natural growth of
each bird.
