Future races for the Presi-
dents Cup may wind up as
60-mile grinds, with the third
and final heat running for 80
miles. At present. Presidents
Cup and nearly all other races
for unlimited hydroplanes are
45-mile affairs with each heat
at is miles.
This new development is be-
ing pushed by the Unlimited
Gold Cup Commission Of the
American Power Boat Associa-
ton. 1t first arose at Seattle
last summer during the run
ming Of the Gold Cup classic.
Proponents argue that many
sports have elimination rounds
and then one big, final drive
to determine the winner. In
speed boating it has been the
custom to base points on all
three heats Of a race.
The new proposal would
make the first two heats truly
elimination races at Is miles
each. The eventual winner
would earn his points only on
the basis Of showing in the
final heat. To make this a truly
significant contest, that final
heat would run 80 instead of
Is miles.
The arrangement would GER
tainly make the showdown heat
a real thriller, although fans
who have been watching recent
Presidents Cup races might say
the show has been mighty good
the way it is.
The final decision rests. Of
course. on the unlimited own
ers. all "a Of them. They are a
hard-to-predict crowd. SO don't
hold your breath on the out
come.
The unlimited boys have this
tentative schedule for 1858:

impossible even by jeep.
The trail we took led along a
high ridge. I teamed with Bill
Warfield of Falls Church and
Vince Marcum of Arlington.
Marcum is Virginia State skeet
champion and a member Of
the 1857 All-America skeet
team.
We drove a way, then parked
to hunt afoot, hopeful that the
hounds would drive bear to-
ward us. There was an inch
of snow underfoot and though
it had seemed cold in the valley.
the chill on the mountain pene-
trated the thickest clothing
unless one kept moving.
From our ridge steep slopes
covered by oaks, laurel and
rhododendron led down to misty
valleys and then up to other
ridges. From two or three
points came the sharp bay Of
hounds pursuing bear. There
were other packs of dogs in the
mountains and many other
hunters, some having come
alone.
Shots Heard in Valley
From a valley came two or
three shots, then two more. We
wondered and thought of the
mountain saying: "One shot,
bar. Two shots. maybe bar.
Three shots, no bar"
From the nearest ridge there
was a high chorus-bear close
by. We hunted for an easy way
to that ridge. but could find
none. only steep slopes and
thickets to scramble through
From that point there was a
single shot-surely a bar.
A bear it was and in due
time a party of proud hunters
came up the slope hauling the
bear to a truck on our trail
The bear, a "she," weighing
$50 pounds or better, was
checked in by j. E. Thornton
Of Deerfield. a State biologist
who claimed the stomach con-
tents and other organs for lab
'oratory study.
Examination showed that
the bear had been feeding
heavily on acorns abundant on
the ridge. The fortunate hunt
er was Sam Werner of Stuart's
Draft, who spotted the bear
hustling through the brush
ahead of the dogs.
We continued our hunt and

knowing he helped Milwaukee
to its first world championship.

shutout over the Yankees.
SPAIN was the major leagues
winningest pitcher this year
with Il victories. 1t was his
eighth season of winning 20
games or more. and he said he
probably was prouder of 1t than
any previous one.
Il was very happy this year
because I feel I contributed to

SPAIN, a rancher here, said
he hopes to have another good
season next year although he
will be 81 in April. But he
wouldn't predict another 20
game season.
Still Has Fast Ball
You've got to win that first
one before you can win the Sec
ond one" he said. I'm just 60
ing to worry about that first
game"
He said he plans to rely q lot
on his fast ball again next year
and still sees no sign Of it
slowing up on him.
Early last season SPAIN said
he changed his pitching style
somewhat and threw more slow
stuff in an attempt to improve
his control. Then at mid-season
he went back to his old style
and finished strong, throwing
his fast ball with good control. I"
They haven't found any
substitute for the fast ball."
SPAIN remarked slyly. But
when I lose it. I'll have to start
looking around for something
else"

DaCk breaking COu LnrOuSn
thick brush up others.
This is the story Of one
such hunt, the men and the
dogs, particularly Old Trey. a
hound of uncertain ancestry
and rare courage, who led the
pack against one bear and
received a blow on the head
in return. 1t was so severe
that one hunter said, you
could track the bear by the
dogs blood"
It all started on Sunday
when some 20 hunters, many
of them from Arlington and
Falls Church, gathered at the
farm owned by Homer G..
Bauserman a Few miles south
east of Stuarts Draft, near
Waynesboro. Bauserman. of
Arlington. is a member of Vir-
ginia's Game and Inland Fish
cries Commission.
Farm Shooting Preserve
Bauserman has created a
shooting and fishing preserve
on his 600 acres and the white
frame farmhouse was fitted I'D
to accommodate our small
army of hunters.
Outside in trucks were the
Gagged hounds, II of them,
owned and handled by Duff
Lewis of Chase. Md. and Mel
vim A. Wheeler and Buck Arm
strong Of Deerfleld, Va.
Other hunters arrived during
the night and long before dawn
all hands we're up. While
Homer, as swift with hot bis
cults as he is with a rifle, and
his two sons. Homer, jr.. and
George, served breakfast,
others made sandwiches for
our lunch on the trail.
AS the first light of a cold,
cloudy day appeared, we piled
into trucks. cars and jeeps for
the 20-mile run to the Blue
Ridge parkway and then to the
summit Of 3.500-foot Bald
Mountain, overlooking the Big
Levels Federal Game Refuge
in which we were to hunt.
Season Lasts Two Weeks
On hand to give us last
minute advice were D. G. Fau-
Der, Federal game warden, and
Jack Todd of Staunton. State
warden for Augusta County.
Big Levels is opened to bear
hunting for two weeks follow
ing the deer season. which end
ed west of the Blue Ridge Sat-
urday. The Statewide bear
season ends January 5.
The refuge is a wilderness of
some 10000 acres on the west
ern slopes Of the Blue Ridge.
On the lower levels are several
lakes and streams.
Bear are abundant, Bauser-
man estimating the number in
the refuge to be at least 500.
Before the hunt he made a 10
mile tour by jeep. observing
numerous bear tracks.
Now bar. the mountain folk
tell you, frequent the high
slopes at this time of year,
feasting on the hickory nuts
and acorns. When driven by
dogs, they also head for the
highest points.
From the parkway. a fair
road leads to a lookout tower
atop Bald Mountain, but from
that point there are only for

as we neareo q peno the dogs
suddenly burst forth with q
yelping symphony seemingly
right at our feet. We hurried
forward, hastily Numbering
our weapons just in time to get
a f1eeting glimpse Of a black
something hurting across the
road and into the brush. In q
second or two the pack was in
full cry along the same route.
The pace was much too fast
and we had to be content with
listening to the fast-fading
chorus.
Further on we found another
dead bear, shot by q hunter
who found it ambling through
the forest. It was q young one
and not very heavy.
Some Of our party had fol-
lowed the dogs far down the
trail past Flint Mountain and
Green Pond to Coles Run. Not
even jeeps could penetrate this
area. It was here that Old
Trey. named for the three
orange patches on his dirty
white back, showed his mettle,
as he had many times.
Old Trey Pack Leader
Armstrong says Old Trey,
daddy Of most Of the pack, has
chased more than 200 bears.
Ten years old. he is the No. /
starter" Of the pack. Starters
are the best-trained dogs, who
take up a cold trail, then lead
the pursuit.
The dogs freed a bear, but
before seeking refuge she gave
Old Trey a glancing blow.
gashing one droopy ear.
The other hounds, mostly
youngsters, with the exception
of Bell, a coon dog being
trained on bear, stayed at a
respectful distance until Davie
Bocock. a Staunton policeman,
came up to kill the bear.
1t wasn't. the first time Old
Trey had been hurt by q bear.
Once he had a foot bitten
through. 1t was about the time
Armstrong lost a good bear
dog named Mig on Back Noun
tain, near Deerfield. He thinks
1t was killed by a bear.
Bear Dogs Valuable
Owners hate to lose bear
dogs. No pampered purebreds
are these but big, raw-boned
pot lickers." Their ancestry is
a mixture of hound strains
such as blue tick, black and
tan, red bone and a little blood
hound. At that. only one in 20
makes a good bear dog.
Occasionally an owner will
use airedales for close-quarter
work after a bear has been
cornered.
The second days hunt was
pretty much a repetition of the
first except that hunters were
taken by jeep further into the
refuge and this time it was
Armstrong; dog. Blue, that was
cuffed by a bear.
Big Bear Cornered
Lester Bauserman. a cousin
of Homer's, had killed a bear
crossing the trail about $3.50
am. Later the dogs cornered a
really big bear in a laurel
thicket and held him there for
several hours while three men
tried to reach the scene.
In the melee, Blue darted in
too close and received several
gashes. The bear finally es-
capped.
The Bausermans are heading
for North Carolina this week
end to hunt wild boar. but it is
doubtful whether they will find
any more excitement than was
stirred up on their bear hunt.
