There was some talk this win
ter among hunters that black
ducks had increased on Chesa-
peake Bay since the big trap
ping breakdown.
Maryland and Virginia were
among the five States in
volved in the roundup last
spring in which 161 persons
were arrested. More than 5000
wild ducks were purchased fol-
evidence over two and a hall
years.
The annual winter waterfowl
census has just been completed
and although 1t shows a slight
gain in black ducks in Mary
land this year, there was a de-
crease in Virginia.
AS for the overall picture
there were moderate declines in
the numbers of ducks in both
States, from 350,600 to 302,854
in Maryland and from LOT, 600
to 104,622 in Virginia.
The aerial count is made
throughout the country by Fish
and Wildlife in cooperation
with fish and game depart
ments. Both State and Federal
wardens and wildlife biologists
fly over all the important win
tering areas.

$3.50 Clerk Mokinq
100000 as Bowler

NEW YORK. Feb. 4 (AP).-
Five years ago Dick Weber was
making $3.50 a year as a mail
clerk.
By December 81, 1862, Weber,
now a full-time professional
bowler, may earn in the neigh
borhood of 100000 as a men,
Der of the Professional Bowlers
Association tour:
This is not to downgrade the
life of a mail clerk, but being
a pro bowler these days is in
finitely more lucrative, and
oddly enough, the surface may
have just been scratched on
a gold mine whose potential is
unlimited.
You don't know how long
I've waited for this" the 1885,
pound Weber said the other
day-"Five years ago I was
making $3.50 a year working
as a mail clerk. Then a friend
of mine advised me to go on
the pro tour which was being
started, and my wife and
both agreed that it might be
better.
C4or%aI CIo,uIr
II didn't win too much at
first" he went on. But when
the PBA tour caught on, the
organized teams we played on
went by the board, and now
all the professional bowlers are
just pitching to get into these
tournaments.
I'VE have 40 planned for this
year and, while that may be
a lot, I'm going to make every
one Of them"
The pro tour is worth over
ST million in 1862 in purses
There are 81, worth at least
$4,000 and three that have
$4,000 in prize money. In adj
dition, a one-day tournament
of champions is in the works
for Las Vegas in June that
would be worth 100000.
1--WE have TOO bowlers in the
PBA," Weber said, land never
have any trouble getting a
field of LA for each event
The money comes from the
bowling alley proprietor, an en-
trance fee of 500 from the
bowler himself, and from tele-
vision money.
Change In Style Helps
1.-THE Tv money is very i'm
portant, not only for prizes,
but it has given us a chance
to sell our tour" he added
Sixteen of the events are being
televised Saturdays from 4::30
to 6 pm.-(WMAL-7 in Wash
ington), and the schedule ends
III April. After that the tour
continues for a summer run,
and applications for further
competition are pouring in.
I'm doing well now because
I changed my style over the
summer" Weber noted. He won
the All-Star tournament at
Miami last month, and leads
the PBA with nine victories

known in his profession, is Sec

ond with only two victories
Weber has won $4,000 this
year.
II used to want to race up
to that foul line and get rid
of the ball." Weber said. Nov
I have gotten used to walking
up and letting the ball go. I've
changed my stance from a
crouch, with the ball tucked
under my chin, to an erect
position, and all of that has
given my ball a live quality
and eliminated the big hook
I used to throw. And, of course,
I'm getting the breaks"
Concentration Necessary
Weber claims a professional
bowler, to do well, must con-
centrate just as much as does
a golfer addressing a ball OF
getting set to putt.
1.-THE television commenta-
tors and sometimes the move
ments of cameras and other
people are distracting, and you
have to ask them to slow down
a Bit" he said. But they al
ways do, and you get that alb
solute concentration you need
to roll a big game when the
stakes are high"
Weber, who has been bowling
for % Of his 321a years, has
an average o. 900. He won five
tournaments last year, and two
of the three the PBA had in
its first year in 1860.
The end is not in sight, ex-
cept perhaps for that career
as a mail clerk.

Trade Expansion
Point Scored by
Administration

The administration won a
victory in the first test of
strength on the trade expan-
sion bill today as the Senate
Finance Committee began vot-
ing on changes in the House
draft.
The committee tentatively
knocked out a House provision
which would have required the
President to deny most-favored-
nation treatment to imports
from Communist controlled
Poland and YugoSlavia.
This was the only important
change the administration had
asked the Senate committee to
make in the House version. The
INSTRUMENTATION principle
means this country will extend
to all nations with which it has
trade relations the concessions
it makes to any one nation in
a reciprocal trade agreement.
The committees action re-
stores present law, under which
the President can accord this
treatment to Poland and Yugo-
Slavia if he finds it to be in
the national interest.

Cold Remedy
Analysed for
Possible Peril
BY DAVID BARNETT

North American Newspaper Alliance
The Food and Drug Admin
istration is studying the pos
sibility of dangerous side effects
from overuse of phenacetin. a
chemical widely used in COM
mon cold and pain remedies.
A spokesman for the agency
said the studies. which may
take another year. seek to
determine whether large doses
Of the drug can lead to severe
kidney damage or blood dis
orders.
Phenacetin, in combination
with aspirin. antihiStamines
and caffeine, is sold overtime
counter in drugstoreS under
various trade names.
(The most common include
Coricidin, Empirin, Thephorin
AC, Super-AnahiSt, Bromo-
Quinine, BE Tablets, Coldene
and DriStan.)
A finding by the FDA that
overdoses produce the undesir-
able side effects could result in
a ruling making the drug avail
able only by prescription.
An official of one of the drug
companies said that if phenac-
etin were found to be potentially
dangerous, it probably would
be removed from the prepara-
tions and the tablets would
continue to be sold over the
counter.
Two years ago, Sweden put
the drug on the prescription
only list and the apo COM
pounds we're replaced on drug
giStS' shelves by a new COM
bination Of aspirin. caffeine,
phenazon and codein.
In Australia, the National
Health and Medical Research
Council has recommended that
sales of phenacetin compounds
be restricted. Some deaths from
kidney damage in Australia
have been linked to the COM
pounds. but an FDA official
here said he understood the
compounds implicated in Aus
tralia were contaminated.
The Medical Letter, a non
profit publication for physi-
clans, reported that experiments
have indicated a contaminated,
acetic-4-choloranilide, has been
found in supplies Of phenacetin
in Europe and in the United
States.
If the contaminant turns out
to be the element causing the
side effects, it presumably
could be removed and the over
the-counter sales of phenacetin
compounds continued.
