BOY SCOUTS, OTHER tITIzENS THANKED
 FOR FEEDING DEER

The directors o. the Territorial Sportsmen, Inc, after consulting with the Fish and Wildlife Service and the Forest Service, have deter mined that this moderate weather has obviated the need for furth- CT deer feeding at this time.

 The Territorial Sportsmen express themselves as sincerely appreciative of the efforts of Boy Scouts in gathering the food, and of the mer- chants, restaurants and bakeries that saved it for them.
