Ohio Waterfowl Season
Extended 1ODays This Year

Ohio waterfowl hunters will
probably have ten more days in
which to pursue their favorite
sport this year.
This was revealed this week
with the establishment by the U.
S. Fish and Wildlife Service of
hunting dates, bag limits, ETC., for
the 1852 waterfowl season in the
Mississippi Flyway of which Ohio
is a part.
The season established by the
Federal Government extends from
October 13 to December 6, in
elusive, for ducks, geese, brant
and coot, except on Pymatuning
Reservoir in Ashtabula County
which will be open from October
20 to December 18th.
A total of SIS hunting days are
provided which is 10 more than
last year. Bag and possession
limits are the same as last year
The bag limit for geese will be
five a day or in possession, and
for ducks the bag limit will be
four ducks per day with a total
of eight in possession after the

Federal. CAME:
TAXES DOWN
NEARLY half

Federal hunting and fishing
equipment taxes returned to Ohio
will amount to only $348,276 dur
ing the fiscal year through June,
1858, as compared to $620,56o in
the previous fiscal period.
This is the report received by
the Ohio Division of Wildlife
from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife
Service which has announced that
the total melon to be cut up "a
mong the 48 states will be S12,-
533,633 as contrasted to $19.765,-
942 before. No details were given
to the states showing why the de-
cline. However. it is thought that
scarce" buying following TIE
opening of the Korean conflict
caused the huge increase during
the last period.
The money is returned to the
states under the Pittman-Robert-
son Federal Aid to Wildlife pro-
gram, under the provision that
the states must set aside one dol
lar for every three dollars of fe3..
eral funds to be used on game
projects.

ENTERTAIN BIG
GRID THRONC

Paul Cochran's Majorettes en-
tertained over $4,000 fans at
Cieveland's Municipal Stadium last
Friday night at halftime of the
BroWns-Bears football game. The
crowd was treated to equally fine
performances by both the Browns
and the Majorettes.
The Port Clinton youngsters
made their halftime entrance four
abreast under the goalpost in
centerfield. After marching the
length of the field they executed
a reverse then lined up single file
facing the Browns side of the
stands. The drummers stood apart
while the baton tWirlers and Swiss
flag swingers went through their
routine to the accompaniment of
a march recording played over
the public address system. At the
conclusion they turned left face,
formed in rows of four, and left

The Majorettes came into the
stadium Is minutes prior to the
kickoff and circled the track be-
fore taking their seats in right
center field. The Steubenville
High School Band shared billing
with the Majorettes. Pictures of
each organization appeared in the

Furriers In Championship Lineup After
Downing Willard Shutting Out Bellevue

In lively diamond demon
stration Sunday the Jaslove Fur
riers tightened their hold on
second league place by beating
Willard Ga on the latter's field.
Jim Hopfinger was the batting
star, with perfect form at the
plate. Andy Lukac. the teams
lea;ling hitter, continued his
slugging pace with three for
four. The decisive blow of the
game was Dick Miller's double to
left center, scoring in Lorensen
and Hopfinger.
Dick Selgo held Willard in
check until the seventh inning,
when they scored two runs in
the eighth to end their scoring
for the day. Willard had seven
hits off Selgo, while the Furs
were banging out 13 off Butts,
Wizards hurler.
Bellevue was scheduled for
doubleheader here Labor Day,
but forfeited one of the games
when the team made late ap-
pcarance.
D.ck Selgo pitched shut-out
game for the Furniers, holding
Bellevue to three hits, while
striking out IS. Port Clinton
gathered IA hits in their 1860
triumph over the Railroaders.
Bob Lorensen led the Furs'
main assault with four for five,
including home run with one
runner on base.
This Sunday the Furriers will
travel to Bellevue, but their
minds are set on Sandusky. Belle
vue, showing weakness all year,
isn't expected to give Port Clin-
ton any trouble, while the San
dusky team meets Fremont in a
doubleheader, and in the event
Fremont should knock off the
scheduled double header, the
Furs of Port Clinton would walk
right into the championship.
Even if Fremont takes only one
of the games, Port Clinton will
go up against Sandusky in a
play-off for the league cham
pionship.

the new ice machine which has

Livery, at the foot of Madison

The ice house, installed by

dispensing as much ice as the
customer wants, according to the
number of coins put in the slots
which are alongside the ice

The ice dispenser can be oper
ated around the clock, and does
not require an attendant. Every
thing about it is mechanically self
serving.
The machine is the only one
of its kind in this area.
