and a foul conversion.
Then the Cougars put on a rally
of their own. Johnson, Cougar for

won a scramble under the basket by
tipping in the winning goal. Wash

Beck and "Dints agreed they ware
Interested primarily in restoration or
the wild ducks, geese, snipes, swan,
and upland fowl that the old-timers
remember.
"But it's not Just a sensational
move," said "Ding"' "Of great econ
omic import Is the restoration of a
water level that has been lowered by
the drainage of the duck areas."
