January 14. After that one may travel to tbe coast for an occasional shot at a black brant, but as far as the duck shoot er is concerned. Tuesday does it. As far aa tola weuJd-ue-guaner la coaceraed. the aeasaa closed yesterday, Sunday- We sat la the ram with Dr. Richard Springer aad our dog Dee. We got wet through to the second layer al skin. Ia fact, our ever patieul wife raa as twice through the clothes dryer be fore we eoald! come la tbe boose. We watched many large bands of pintails head ed south, and as usual they would rather fly than decoy and be shot. We close tbe season trying to figure out Just bow it is possible for a pintail to fly so high, so far, and for so long a time with out coming down. If they 'the pintails) act in other areas as they do around our vicinity, there will be ducks on this continent for years to come Unless of course, they fly themselves to death. Now, with our seasoa closed, the fragment! of the seasoa hare to be swept ap. There is tbe sckttergm to take apart aad eleaa thoroughly. It baa la be oiled lightly and placed hi a gua rack for the mouths between now aad September 1. We shall remember not to put our gnu away ia a gua ease. We tried that eace aad sometime later discovered a rexy rusty fowBag piece. aCu,V Don Barter Decoys Put on Shelf in Shop Our rubber boots and waders must be put away In a cool dry place where they will dry out and not rot from heat or sun. Our decoys will be placed on a shelf in the shop where they can dry so the paint will not have a tendency to peel off. Our duck calls can be put away for another spell. They haven't done too much bd, any way. Our woadei f ul aad aderstaadiag wife caa now smile agaia aad more about the house without stumbling over hunting gear. She woa'l have to chase elusive feathers around the rooms aay laager. Ia fact, she an ay even reach the poiat where she Is not frightened al the stranger at the hack door aay longer. After all, why should we be rousirltrrd a stranger. We can now catch up on our Sunday sleep and with a bit of luck we will be completely refreshed and ready to go about the time duck season opens again next fall. Of course, there is fishing but we don't have to get up in the middle of tbe night to find a fish. The fish wt like bite better in the middle of the day. Many Thanks to Land Owners Wa want U thank all of the considerate laadewaert who allowed us aa maay pieasaat hours ia pursuit of our duck hauling Joys. We trust that we win be (or given for the barns we burned to keep warm by. We hope that the missing fence sections which we used to build blinds from will set be missed. Nor will the tame geeae be missed. They had no business walking In the same Held wUh as anyway. We had fun shooting cows and horses to watch them run. We had even more fun shooting windows from unoccuppied farm houses. We didn't get much kick out of shooting the laying hens, though, as they couldn't fly. But, we haven't been at this hunting game very long and we may learn to enjoy even other harmless games. There were a few things we missed this year, but well try and get them done next season.

Salem i. th nniv mamhar of tha six-team circuit not ready to operate dur lng the 1951 season, and in view of the difficulties confronting the Senators, they may find It Impossible to field a team. Salem was well represented ar- the meeting, by Walter Zotel who acted as spokesman for the group. by Vera McMullen. Bill McMahon and Dr. Vera Miller, who have been members of the Senators "official" staff the oast year, and by Steve Brody, Don Fair and Al Lightner. Zoeel interrupted the lesaMa early to emphasise, "Salem la not yet ready to be a member af the league this year." He later explaiaed to the circuit representatires aad president Jim Flelabmaa that a sew ap eratlag Mrtaeraalp has sat yet aeea formed, aad that a real prospects are la line far either tbe chairmanship af the partner ship or the geaeral maaafershie of tbe club. There is little doubt that the new partnership can be formed this week, as almost SO per cent of the necessary 100 per cent has already been pledged. But of equal importance is the filling of the two major positions on the ball club, one of which was held by George Paalus the last three years and the other of which was held by Bill Brenner last season. Psulus has resigned and Bren ner was released in October. Despite efforts ta find compe tent mea to fill these berths, the small group af Salem eatamlasta hare aeea unsuccessful. The group is to meet again Fri day night in Salem in another attempt to erase the difficulties. The principal aim will be to elect a chairman and board of directors, and to begin Immediate negotia tions with general managership possibilities.
