The season on Coots conforms
to the waterfowl season with a
daily limit of ten and possession
limit of ten after the first day.
The season on Wilson's Snipe
(jacksnipe) will open on October
IS and will run for Is consecu-
tive. days through November J..
The daily bag limit for snipe is
eight and the possession limit aft
er the first day is eight.
Liberalized regulations for the
1855 waterfowl season were based
largely on the results of intensive
surveys in Canada and the far
north which indicated a substan-
tial Improvement in the reproduc-
tive success of waterfowl through
out important parts Of their
breeding range. The enlarged crop
of birds is reflected in fore casts
of the fall flight showing consid-
erable increases in the Mississippi
Flyway, of which Ohio is part.
For some years the findings of
waterfowl biologists have had lit
tie effect on the setting of sea-
sons. length of seasons, bag and
possession limits, ETC. This year,
however, surveys played an impor-
tant part in the final outcome of
the 1855 waterfowl season as the
liberalization was founded on the
general satisfactory status of
waterfowl as measured during re-
cent surveys.
In the final analysis, however,
the weatherrnan will determine
how successful the 1855 waterfowl
season is going to be. An early
freeze-up in the Canadian Prov
inces will move the waterfowl
down this way and some rough
weather after the ducks get here
will help. Waterfowl tend to raft
up" during "bluebird" weather
with many remaining far out in
the open water During blustery
weather they will take to wing
and the hunters have chance to
bag them.
In setting the 1855 waterfowl
season, officials h ave attempted
to treat all waterfowl hunters as
fairly as possible. In a normal
season both northern and southern
Ohio hunters should find the 1855
season to their liking. If the sea-
son is successful a vote of thanks
is due the waterfowl biologists -
their surveys made it possible.

Wrong Lane Said
Number One Fault

Columbus, o. - Failure to keep
to the right was cited today by Mr..
G. L. Smith, Chairman of the Ohio
Council of Safety Supervisors of
the Ohio Trucking Association, as
the number one fault of present
day drivers.
'It seems that the more unfav-
orable the traffic conditions, the
more the average driver tends to
straddle lines or use the left lane, "
Mr.. Smith said. yet. the smooth
flow of traffic is almost wholly de-
pendent on every driver keeping
within his own lane srd keeping
to the right except when passing
or making left turn.
THE Ohio trucking industry is
giving heavy emphasis to this basic
driving fault in connection with its
August courtesy and safety cam
paign, Driving in Traffic"
Mr.. Smith attributed the failure
of so many drivers to keep to the
right to a combination of personal
characteristics, the construction
characteristics of modern automo-
biles and inadequacies of many
streets and highways.

GeneraD and his wife, Anne Nor
row Lindberg, made their pioneer
ing survey flights to the Orient via
the Arctic Route in 1881 and a
round the North Atlantic in 1888.
Built by Lockheed in 1929 to spe-
cifications prepared by Lindberg,
1t established a new record for
transcontinental flight in 1880 by
crossing from California to New
York in less than Is hours.
Lockheed called this plane The
Sirius, but the Lindbergs renamed
it Tingmissartaq, which is what
the Greenland Eskimos called it.
Tingmissartaq means, THE one
who flies like a big bird"
At the time of the survey flights,
aircraft landing facilities were not
available at most of the places Wis
tied by the Lindbergs. For percau-
tionary reasons, the plane had to
carry an abnormal load of special
equipment and supplies for emerg-
ency use. 1t was equipped with
pontoons and was powered by a
Wright Cyclone, no hip, engine on
the North Atlantic flight. Lindberg
reported that his greatest Difficult
ty during the flights were exper-
fenced because of the overlooking
during take-offs. Excess loading
totaled as much as $50 pounds dur
ing the North Atlantic flight.
Mrs. Lindberg served as radio
operator, navigator, and assistant
pilot on the survey flights.
Before being moved to the Air
Force Museum, the Tingmissartaq
had been in the American Museum
of Natural History, in New York
City, since 1888.
