THURSDAY, NOV. 25, 1943 OHIO'S N°t PUB. t£AH.ER.- WCASSL Legal muter onio snios AS TOLD BY CONSERVATION DIVISION SWNK Minh trapping pck FUR BEARERS BEGINS November 15- in the INLAND TRAPPING DISTRICT .THE SEASON CLOSES !JANUA1?Y 15 •r MU»KRAT’ANO mink MAY* THE USWR’tUSSP??* "ST”CT A 900 pound eight point moose was downed with one shot by Harry Lew is, Allen Count Coronor, on a recent 10-day hunt in the vicinity of Oba, Ontario. The huge animal was tracked for a half mile thru the snow before Lewis and his partner, Burley Crid er from Cridersville, finally spotted animal 300 hundred yards ahead in the snow. Lewis shot the bull with a clean hit in the neck. The men butchered the animal on the spot, carrying the 400 pounds of meat and the head back to Lake Kaby, three miles away. Lewis also told of an encounter ot huge fish with a bunch of otters. Lewis snagged the fish which weigh ed 25 pounds and later discovered the big fish had swallowed another 4 pond fish. The men had to chase the otters away and then were able to grab the fish from the water. The head of the bull moose is be ing mounted by a taxidermist and will be on display in the Lewis tro phy room. Reports on the season’s hunting ot upland game adds up to contradic tory theories. Many hunters and farmers say there is a greater abun dance of ringnecks and pheasants, while on the other hand a group re port a lack of game in many choice areas. To sum it up, the consensus of opinion seems to be the game is spotty with some areas practically devoid of birds and rabbits. There are not as many hunters this year to scatter the game and keep it mov ing, as a result, game run out of good hunting grounds, does not im mediately get chased l?ack in again, causing a spotty condition. A big problem confronts the local Three lettermen form the nucleus of an abbreviated cage squad which Coach A. C. Burcky is whipping into shape at Bluffton college for 1943-44 play, it was learned this week. Opening game for the Beavers will be a contest with Ohio Northern’s vet eran outfit at Ada on Wednesday, Dec. 1. A return game with North ern and two contests with Ashland are the only tilts carded so far for the locals, but others will be added to the schedule, the Bluffton mentor said. Although his squad is short in man power because of depletion in ranks resulting from calls into the services, Two veteran outfits will clash here this Wednesday night in the Bluffton High gymnasium when the Pirates tangle with Lima St. John’s in the season opener for both schools. Bluffton has only four lettermen to match against five veterans on the St. John’s squad, and all in all the Pi rates should not expect too easy go ing in their initial start of the season.

A good many of our birds are shot by the hunters from the city. These folks do noth ing to help in restocking plans of the Sportsmen’s club and perhaps the answer in the future wil be to lease the hunting right from the farms, then work out a system where-by the city sportsmen will contribute on a cash basis for the privilege of hunt ing. Up near Bowling Green the Center Webster Game Ass’n has now under their control 17,000 acres of land. This means that every person not being a member of the association has to pay $5.00 for a season per mit to hunt. The season runs this year from November 19 to Dec. 4th, the dates for the open season on pheasants. The money taken in from the hunt ers goes for restocking purposes. Wood county has the best pheas ant hunting in this part of the country, the reason for it is apparent, the hunting areas are controlled. We need control of our lands here near Bluffton if we are going to protect the farmers from hunters treading down his fences and running over his land. More “No Hunting” signs are be ing posted every year, and although local sportsmen are respectful of the farmer and ask for the privilege of hunting, many of the outsiders are not, and as a result considerate sportsmen have to suffer along with the bad ones. A controlled leased acreage will re live the farmer of the responsibility of who will be permitted to hunt. Those trespassing will have creden tials to show before they are per mitted to trespass. Perhaps such a plan could be considered in our com munity and be put into operation. Coach Burcky has nine promising candidates about whom this year’s team can be built. As a starting point he has three let termen: Howard Baumgartner, Ellis Guthrie and Ellwyn Hartzler from last year’s squad. To fill other positions on the team the Bluffton mentor can draw from a group composed of Lehman, a squad member last year and Landis, Berky, Beery, Smucker and Herr, first-year men at the local school. Ohio Northern, the Beaver’s first foe, has six veterans from last year's team. The four first-stringers from last year who are back in uniform again this season include Fred Herrmann, center: Robert Burkholder and Varden Loganbill, guards and Neil Schmidt, a forward. Four substitutes from last year’s team who are looking good this sea son include Art Hilty, Robert Gratz, Hubert Basinger and Ronald Zimmer ly. Jack Koontz, a transfer from Mt. Cory, is another candidate who prob ably will get to see plenty of action. St. John’s has three lettermen for wards, Capt. Leo Murphy, James Mc Pherson and Louis Goedde, and two guards, Robert Riepenhoff and Mullenhour. Four of last year’s stitutes also are available. Paul sub- B. H. S.
