ClAPP MEETS WITH LOCAL MEN

Norman Clapp, REA admin istrator, met with HEA, CEA, and MEA representatives dur ing the National Rural Elec- tric Associations annual meet ing in Las Vegas last week, a meeting requested by the ad- ministrator for the discussion of possible grounds for common action on the generation prob lems of southcentral Alaska. Phil O'Neill, president of the MEA board of directors, re- ported that Clapp also met with the MEA group on the final day of the convention.
 A point made to the admins trator was that any joint ap- proach must represent some advantage to all parties con- cerned, and that MEA cannot enter into an agreement where the local coop may be expect ed to make concessions with out any certainty that others are willing to. If the primary interests of the MEA member ship cannot be considered in joint approach, the local coop may have to pursue a course of it's own for generation, O'Neill stated.
 He noted that 7,249 persons were registered at the conven- ton, and that the national ad- ministrator took time to meet with local representatives on two different occasions.

Rabbit Fever
Cases Noted

BALTIMORE, Dec. II (AP)
Three cases of rabbit fever
have been reported recently,
the Maryland Health Depart
ment announced.
1t warned hunters to be
careful and issued a list of
precautions.
One of the cases was report
ed in Baltimore County and
the other was reported on the
Eastern Shore.
Also known as tularemia,
the disease can be contracted
by handling infected rabbits,
squirrels, deer and other
game, or from eating under
cooked wild meat.
Persons skinning, dressing
or handling carcaSSes of such
animals should wear water
proof gloves, the department
said. Entrails of the animals
also should be burned, II

MARYLAND MAN
AGAIN DESIGNS
DUCK STAMP

For the second time
Stanley Stearns, an artist,
who makes his home in
Stevensville, Md, has the
honor of designing the
Federal waterfowl stamp.
His water color drawing
of the Meme goose has been
selected as the winning
design from 1853 entries
in the 18th annual water
fowl stamp competition.
Stearns was the artist
chosen for the 1855
stamp.
The Meme goose is one
of the rarest species of
water fowl in the world
and it is Hawaii's official
bird. For the l964-'5 stamp
Stearns depicted a pair Of
Meme geese on one of Ha-
waits volcanic slopes.

late l940s and the early 1950s,
when the big skiing boom was
just getting started. many ski
instructors were reluctant to
indorse the So-called safety
bindings.
These early release bindings
were not as well engineered as
they are today. They fire.

peration, the safety" bindings
were so tightly adjusted that
they were ne longer safe.
Then, too, most instructors
were former competitors, who
had learned through exper-
fence that skis must stay on
in a tumble if a fallen racer is
to have any chance of recover
ing and winning in a downhill
event. Nor were they convinc-
ed of the deSirability of a re-
lease binding for recreational
skiing.
Now most racers use a re-
lease binding toe unit in COM
bination with long thongs on
a turntable. They favor long
thongs for the added support
and edge control that they
feel is necessary when skiing
at speeds UP to 70 or more
miles per hour on a difficult
course.

There are more than 100
different models of release
bindings listed in Ski Maya
zines 1864 Buying Guide.
Fortunately, the novice skier
can consult the proprietor Of
one of the local ski shops and
get help in making a selec-
ton. It is best to seek a shop
that is equipped to properly
mount the bindings.
Prices for adult models,
with the recommended heel
and toe release, range from
S8.95, plus an installation
charge, to $3.50 for a de luxe
model, complete with an in
surance policy covering up to

good number of them were

with clipped wings. to lend ad-
ditional authenticity to the tab
leau. Besides The live decoys.
there was a pen nearby with
some so more wild ducks
milling around in it. Whenev-
er anything moved the din of
quacking was almost deafen-
ing.
1t was. in short. pure MUIR
der and there was really only
one thing wrong with the
whole setup. In the logbook
where visiting sports recorded
their bag there was a recur-
ring terse notation: "Tempete,
bredouille." Which means that
on that particular night the
wind had been blowing and
the sports went duckless.
For us the notation had a
rather sinister significance. 1t
wasn't exactly a tempest that
was blowing when we arrived
at the blind. 1t was more like
a hurricane.
1t raised gusts of spray off
the pond. ratified the gunports
and stirred the live decoyS to
a frenzy of agitated quacking.
Learns His Ducks
1t was the poorest of omens
for a kind of duck shooting
which seems to lend itself
naturally to calm, moonlit
nights. For a time we braved
the wind-driven rain at the
gunports peering into stygian
darkness before doing the SEN
sible thing and going to bed.
Even then, however, an occa-
sional unfamiliar quack 1--WE

turned out to be either dis
placed decoys or sheer halluci-
nation. The returning light re-
vealed our pond as barren and
bleak as ever. The whole oper-
alton began to look like a
hopeless cause.
At last we could stand 1t no
longer. In front of the blind"
we discovered, was a concrete
shooting pit, half full of
water, but at least out of
doors. 1t was our last forlorn
chance. But as we settled
down into the water. the
phrase "Tempete. bredouille"
kept running through our
minds.

By CROSBY S. MOVES

European Correspondent Of The star
PARIS. - Our friend Ed
Taylor. with whom we occa-
sionally have laid low a few
pheasants, had been urging
us to investigate the mysteries
of French duck shooting. And
so it was that we found our
selves up to our knees in mud
near the English Channel at
the mouth of the Somme in
what must surely be the
dreariest corner of this lovely
land.
We also quickly discovered
that French duck shooting for
a person. reared in the gen.
tlemanly traditions of Mary
lands Eastern Shore, is an
eye-opening experience. The
French. when they go out to
shoot a duck, don't mess
around. There is no rule of
the sport, as practiced in the
United States, that is not sys-
tematically broken.
The blind" which we had
rented for a 24-hour period
starting at noon. turned out to
be a three-room house, COM
plete with a ht-proof living
room kitchen, gas heat and
light. and featuring a shoot
ing" room overlooking a small
pond.
Looks Like FOricicatiOn
1t was built of reinforced
concrete. looking for all the
world like an old German for
tification which. for all We
know. it was. The shooting
room was equipped with black
out curtains. gunports cover
ing all of the possible angles
of fire, and hunks.
The curious thing about the
gunportS was that they were
all angled downward toward
the water, making it impos-
sible to shoot at any duck that
had not already landed. In
front of the two main ports a
couple of easy chairs had
been installed. On the shelf in
front Of them were ash trays,
places for drinks, room for a
shotgun and a pair of night
glasses for observing birds in
the darkness. Real sports,
these French.
The guardian of the place
thoughfully had left us his
shotgun, the only one we had
ever seen equipped with a
telescope sight. He also left
us considerable advice about
how to let a maximum num-
Der of ducks land on the pond
and assemble near the decoys
before blasting them out of
the water.
Live DecOys Used
To make things easier, he
had staked out his decoys in
three well-defined groups. II
