Mass Man
In the days of Davy Crockett
whose ghost, we trust will have
been laid to rest before these lines
meet the public eye-in the days of
Davy c. and of Dan'l Boone, nearly
all Americans were living in the
country. as we would call it today
Even the cities were small. Those
were the days of rugged Individual
ism. When a neighbor came within
50 miles of Daniel Boone he thought
the woods were getting too crowd
ed. so the legend has it-and moved
on. Nowadays in our more urban
era. we have come to the time Of
Mass Man" as philosophers call
him. The city is the Land Of Fol
low-my-Leader. 1t is the dwelling
place of the Joincrs. Mr. Boone did
not belong to many societies; but
where is the man today who is hap
by without belonging to enough
clubs and societies to keep him ont
every night? Mass Man is a rather
sad spectacle Jesus Wept over him
there in Jerusalem The people Of
that city were like sheep, doing,
saying. even thinking what their
Scribes and Pharisees told them TO.
The men Of Jerusalem would not
look for themselves. they knew
not the time of their visitation %
They did not know when God was
knocking at their door. If Christ
came to America today, would
Mass Man recognize hin1e Or
would he be under suspicion be-
cause he would not fit the universal

Malcolm Booker is equally enter

living room of his colonial styled
home or relaxing in conversation
around the pot-bellied stove in his

To start off the unusual. the
Booker home is almost split by the
Buckingham Appomattox county
line. There is a special act of the
legislature dated 1868 that places
the home on the Beverly Hills plan

who was one of the first to settle
that end of Buckingham.
The land has been in the family
since before the revolution. and it
is said that the land was granted
Malcolm's ancestors by the King of
England. The Buckingham court
house burned in 1892. so these prec-
ious records were destroyed
The old family home was also
destroyed by fire in 1898 and the
new house was started before the
turn Of the century. Malcolm says

Natural Hunter
Booker is known in Buckingham
as one of the best hunters in the
state. However. he seldom goes
hunting When he. does he prefers
turkey or bird hunting.
Rather than killing game, his
main Interest is in protecting Wild
life and seeing that they are hunted
tairly Knowing the woods as well
as he does makes him ideally fitted
to being game warden. He be-
came full time game warden in
July Of this year. Joining Charles
Spencer who has been game warden
for IL years. Booker also has Is
years OF experience as special law
officer With the Appomattox county
police and served as part-time war
den since l947.
Turkeys Decreasing
One of the problems facing the
tall solidly built sportsman and
other hunters throughout the State
is the decrease Of game that is felt
IN some areas. Booker and Jack
Gwynn, game biologist employed
BY the State. both expressed con-
Germ over the decrease Of turkeys
in Buckingham county.
Gwynn is currently studying the
turkey in Virginia trying to find a
way to increase the wild turkey. In
lis study he is covering Bucking-
ham, Cumberland, Nottoway and II
other counties in the state very
closely He hopes to find in these
counties the answer to the turkey
problem.
Both GWynn and Booker feel that
stocking the turkeys from G M e
farms is not the answer. Booker
said that most Of the turkeys killed
in buckingham were the moss
heads, and not the game farm
turkeys The point was also raised
that game farm turkeys may bring
diseases to the wild turkeys and
actually do more harm than good.
Kill Gobblers Only
The possibility of having only a
gobb!e.' season was favorably en-
dorsed by both Of these sportsmen
Booker said that most of the farm
erS would oppose a spring gobbler
