Spring Season
For Gobb|ers

The opposition was strong in
certain quarters, but Virginia
has decided to permit spring
turkey hunting in A counties
and three military reservations
including Fairfax, Fauquier,
Culpeper, Loudoun and Prince
william.
The debate before the State
Game Commission in Rich
mond over the week end was
lengthy and sometime acrid,
and in the end, some South
west Virginia and Tidewater
counties were scratched from
the ruling on recommendation
of game biologists, and is other
counties we're exempted at re-
quests of their boards of SUPER
visoSr.
The season will be from April
20 through May 4, and bearded
turkeys only will be legal. Hunt
ing hours are limited from a
half hour before sunrise to 10
a m, and 1t will be unlawful to
use dogs or organized drives
The gobblers must be hunted
by calling.
In addition to the five
counties named near the
Washington area, those open
for hunting are:
Bedford, Bland, Botetourt,
Brunswick, Campbell, Caroline
Charles City, Chesterfield, Craig
Cumberland, Essex, Franklin
Giles, Goochland, Grayson
Greene, Hanover, Henrico, Hen
ny, King George, King William
Madison, Mecklenberg, Pow.
hatan, Prince Edward, Prince
Georges, Smyth, Southampton
Stafford, Surry, Tazewell, WythG
and York.
Hunting also will be permit,
ted at Camp A. P. Hill, Camp
Pickett, the Quantico military
reservation and the following
game commission owned hunt
ing areas: Gaithright, Goshen
Little North Mountain, Wun'
der, Ward-Rue and the High
land w4ldlife management areas
Objectors to the sprinI
hunting season contended a
the hearing that spring is thu
breeding time for many species
of wild animals who might b
disturbed by large groups O.
hunters tramping through thu
woods. In addition, some ex'
pressed the fear that sprinl
hunting will create a fire haz'
ard and bring on illegal kill o.
other game.

Outdoor Editor

Close-to-home fishermen are
making merry with what OBJ
servers at Fletcher's Boathouse
call the largest run of white
perch in years.
But the local fishermen
weren't held to Just a diet OF
perch at the fishing place just
off Canal road. About a dozen
largemouth bass were caught
out of the cove at Fletcher's
while a number Of crappie and
catfish also were taken.
Up the river around Chain
Bridge the herring clippers were
hard at work filling sacks with
their speciality.
Over the week end, both Sat-
urday and Sunday. every boat
julius Fletcher had available
was in use. The rain yesterday
put a slight damper on pro-
ceedings, but the perch and
herring will be with us for
sometime now, and stay-at-
home anglers will make hay.
Happy Young Fishermen
One of the happiest fisher
men in the area Is young Mi
chael Clements, who had the
honor of bringing in the first
shad from Queen Anne's Bridge
The youngster, who is 16 and
lives at 2404 Griffin street, Hy-
attsville, was out fishing with
his father. He landed his fish
with a red and white dart anC
happened by the Largo Sports
Shop on the way home. He
didn't know that proprietor
Stew Wells and Pat Floyd an
nually present a fishing roc
and reel to the first fisherman
to bring in a hickory shad. 81

A few warm days undoubt-
edly have put cupboard boat
ers in the mood for getting
under way. An hour or so in
checking over the motor after
its winter layup will pay off
in smooth performance from
the trip.
The starting point should be
the spark plugs. Defective plugs
can result in rough idling, hard
starting and excessive fuel con-
sumption, so inspect the plugs
carefully for burning, fouling
or cracking.
If the plugs appear to be in
good shape. just gap them
properly and reinstall them.
But don't take chances with
them If they show signs of de-
terioration. Replace them with
new ones of a type recon-
mended by the manufacturer.
While you are at 1t, check
the rubber spark plug caps for
deterioration and replace them
If necessary.
Ignition System Next
Turn to the ignition system
next. The breaker points, con-
denser, coil and wiring can be
quickly tested with a spark
checker. These are inexpensive
to buy but they are easy to
make, If you prefer.
The fuel system is next. You
should have run the carburetor
dry last fall when you put the
motor up. If so, there should
be no problem. But the fuel
filter bowl should be removed
and. cleaned with neutral spirits
or clean gasoline. Do the same
with the filter itself. If 1t is
badly clogged with varnish or
other deposits, replace it. Next
check all fuel lines for leaks
or cracks.
Fresh fabrication If vitality
important. Consult your own
er's manual for points that
require attention. Using a
grease gun, fill the fittings with
the proper lubricant.
Drain Lower Unit
The lower unit housing the
propeller shaft and gears
should be drained and refilled
with the lubricant recon-
mended by the manufacturer
If water or metal chips are de-
teeted in the drain oil, have

Ruling Expected
To seuttle Hopes
Of Rail Unions

WASHINGTON CUPID - The
railroad arbitration board hands
down a far-reaching decision to-
day that is expected to scuttle
union hopes of keeping firemen
on most trains and preserving
present crew sizes.
The boards ruling will be
binding for two years and may
set a precedent for ALDERMAN
agement disputes in other indus
tries over alleged ''featherbed-
ding"
The late President John F.
Kennedy appointed the seven
man panel to decide two key is
sues of the long-standing rail
work rules controversy under
terms Of legislation rushed
through Congress to head off a
nationwide train strike Aug. %.
Arbitration board Chairman
Ralph 7. Seward said the deci-
sion would be issued today as
Congress specified in the law.
The decision is expected at
4 pm, EST.
1t was the first compulsory
arbitration law ever enacted in
peacetime. Other issues in dis
pute-pay rates, work jurisdic-
ton and seniority ruleS-were
left for negotiators to work out
before a Feb. Is deadline. A
strike would be possible if no
agreement was reached by that
time on these issues.
An informed source said the
majority of the arbiters has de-
cided to drastically reduce the
number Of firemen a aboard
freight and yard locomotives
along the lines the railroads
proposed.
Management contended that
the fireman was a "featherbed-
