Ban on Hunting
Ducks Suggested
By Robertson

RICHMOND, July 4 (AP).-
Senator Robertson, Democrat
of Virginia, has suggested that
the Secretary of the Interior
close the duck hunting season
if a survey shows the supply Of
birds is smaller than last year.
Robertson called for such a
survey of duck breeding
grounds in a letter to Secretary
Udall.
Considering the acute short
age of ducks last fall" Robert
son wrote, "the current reports
concerning the severe drought
in the prairie provinces of
Canada are quite disturbing.
IT suggest that you make a
prompt and careful survey of
breeding conditions both in our
Northwest and in Canada and
if the indications are that the
supply of ducks this year will
be less than last, that you
promptly announce that there
will be no open season on ducks
this fall"
Robertson said the sale of
duck stamps should have NO
bearing on the Interior De-
partment's decision on an open
or closed season.
He reminded the Secretary
that a substantial number of
stamps would be sold if there is
an open season on geese,
which seem to be reasonably
plentiful"

HUNTING AND FISHING
For Thrills and ChiIIs
Try Catching RuttIers

Vincent R. (Skip) O'Brien, a
Washington resident for 10
years who left the Interstate
Commerce Commission last No
vember to take a job as a civil
ian specialist at Altus Air Force
Base in Oklahoma, soon made
a discovery.
This was not a desert he
had come to but a rich agri-
cultural area and almost a
sportsman'S paradise. Lake AL
tuS, with fishing, swimming,
boating and water skiing was
only is minutes drive, Lake
Texoma only a few hours away
and the Wichita Mountains
Game Preserve with herds of
bison and longhorn cattle be-
sides numerous fishing lakes al
so nearby.
Thus there was enough to
keep a fisherman busy but
O'Brien discovered that there
was another sport and to this he
and his 14-year-old son, Rich
ard, have been devoting them
selves whole -heartedly. 1t is
rattlesnake hunting.
Snake Roundup Annually
Every year at Okeene, OKLA,
there is a snake roundup and
it has one feature that sets it
apart-firearmS are prohibited.
Hunters must capture the
diamondbacks alive and with
out injury to the snakes, "
O'Brien writes. Richard and I
participated in the roundup last
month May0 OF the more
than 1000 snakes caught that
day and of the hundreds of
participants from all parts of
the United States and from
several foreign countries, only
a single person was bitten.
Live snakes, in perfect con-
dition, are auctioned in the
center of Okeene after the hunt.
Consolation for anyone injured
If it be any consolation-iS

RattIers All 4.rOund
"That was our first snake
hunt. Since then we have made
several expeditions and find
that the trip to Okeene is COM
pletely unnecessary. There is
no need, actually, to go more
than IS miles from Altus. We
have located and been directed
to denning areas that take less
than a half hour to reach.
Zone advantage that a hun

ter for rattlers has is that per-
mission to trespaSs seldom is
denied by a property owner
They are only too pleased to
assist, often giving directions
or leading one to the immedi-
ate vicinity of a known den.
"The most profitable time,
however, is during the first few
weeks in May-at least, that
was true this year. At present
the snakes have spread out to
the extent that we spent several
hours outside Eldorado yeSter-
day only to return with a sim
gle 31a-footer. That same area
a few weeks ago would have
produced, without exaggeration
40 or so diamondbackS.
No Need to Conserve
Farmers, stock breeders an6
conservationists all agree that
destroying this particula a l
game without intending to
keep the trophies is not at al
wasteful. 1t is not feared that
any shortage will ensue fol
some time to come.
"If you are looking for a
sport that is a little different
we can recommend this
Whether, the general return Of
the snakes to the denS in the
fall of the year brings the same
conditions that prevail in the
spring, I cannot say although
it seems reasonable,

to look into it for you"

Souchak, Snead. Julius BoroS,
Tommy Bolt, Doug Ford and
Jack Fleck. Anybody further
back than Fleck in the point
standings probably would have
to win the PGA championship
to make the team.
The touring pros often are
pictured as a mercenary, cal
loused group, but they can get
worked up over making the
Ryder Cup team, which actu-
ally costs them money. They
get a few hundred dollars for
expenses, a golf bag, and may
be a sports coat. But the
matches take at least a couple
of weeks off their schedule.
particularly the years when
they are played in England.
Several months ago Snead
drew a careless two-stroke pen
atty in one of the tour events
Che tapped a putt of a couple
of inches into the cup while
holding the pin with the other
hand. The penalty dropped
him from second or third place
to about eighth. Somebody
asked him of that wasn't a
rather costly mistake and Sam
said, "Yes, it not only cost
me the money, but about 40
Ryder Cup points"
Last month at the National
Open in Detroit, Bolt asked one
of the PGA officials for a copy
of the latest Ryder Cup stand
ingS. At the time Bolt was in
ninth place. This is getting
tight" Bolt said, "Ole Tom is
going to have to make a move
and get some points, or he's not
going to make the team"
\ y y
Since then Littler passed Bolt
by virtue of his Open triumph,
Snead passed him with a sec
ond-place finish in the Western
Open, and Ford picked up
enough points in the Open to
push Tommy back to 18th
place.
Baltimore's Bill Collins is
nursing an injured hand, and
was home with his hand in a
cast during the Western Open.
But Collins returned to the
tour in the Buick Open last
week, anxious, he said, to pick
up more Ryder points and
clinch his place on the team.
Only the st. Paul Open this
week, the Milwaukee Open and
the PGA championship remain
for the pros to collect points.
4 y y
That's a tough break for the
Eastern Open in Baltimore
August 3-6, and the Carling
Open here at Indian Spring
August 1920. Snead, Bolt,
BoroS and the other border
line candidates most likely will
play in all events through the
.PGA in their bid for points.
The Eastern, CARING and tour
naments after the PGA cham
pionship will count towards the
1868 team.
Snead was captain of the
United States team which won,
912-212, at Pinehurst in 1851.
Sam held a closed meeting with
his team, one that included
Ben Hogan and Jimmy De-
maret, and some of the pros
we're saying later they never
had seen Snead in such a seri-
Gus role. He gave a pre-match
pep talk that might have been
lifted from Knute Rockne.
The United States team has
lost only once since 1888, but

Of the matches the pros can
get excited about them.
