The figures for the November
deer kill are still coming in
with most of the camps a d
clubs showing an increase in the
number of deer killed. The deer
hunter seemed to have a very
fine season, according to Bill
Turcotte, chief of game a n d
fisheries for the Game and Fish
Commission.
"The Huntington Point Club
in Bolivar County reported 1O3
bucks killed on opening day"
stated Turcotte. I'VE have es-
timated that a total of IS to
20 thousand deer will be killed
during this years deer season.
The sale of deer and turkey
tags also reflects an increase
in the number of people hunt
ing. From July / to Dec. /,
there was a total of Is, 1902 deer
and turkey tags sold. This is
an increase of 1851 tags sold
over the same period a year
ago.

Struggling Crown

CINCINNATI (UPI) Hank
Aaron Of the Milwaukee Braves
won the National Leagues slug
ging crown for the second time
in his career this year while
Stan Musial and Warren SPAIN
set records that make them al
most certain selections for
baseball'S Hall of Fame.
Aaron, who won his first slug
ging title in 1859, had a .586
percentage this year to score a
narrow victory over Willie
Mays of the San Francisco
Giants, who finished with .582.
San Francisco's Willie Meow

third and fourth, respectively,
with marks of $50 and .563.
Aaron, who finished third in
the batting race with .319, had
20 doubles, four triples and "A
home runs among his 201 hits
for $40 total bases - also tops

Roger stuubuch
Player Of Year

NEW fOhk (UPD-MidShip'
man Roger Staubach, the most
celebrated sailor since Johr
Paul Jones, has been named
the college football player Of
the year by the United Press
international.
1t was another in a long line
of steady laurels for the per.
Sonable 21-year-old Navy quar-.
terback, who also accumulated
such other awards as the Heis.

Staubach's designation as
player of the year came by
landslide proportions as he
polled 30 votes out of a posi-.

There was no one even re.
motely close to Six-foot-two,
19O-pound jolly Roger, of whom
his coach, Wayne Hardin says,

Previously chosen college
footballs back of the year by
the UPI, Staubach piled up a
199-vote margin over his near
est competitor, Baylor quarter
back Don Trull, in the voting
for the player Of the year.
Trull received IL votes while
Texas tackle Scott Appleton,
UPI lineman of the year, and
Georgia Tech quarterback Billy

Halfback Sherm Lewis of
Michigan State drew eight

Staubach, a junior from Gin

named in 1860.
Possibly the most exciting
