Many Women
Fish and Hunt,
Survey Shows
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York ' (U.R) The big
game a woman stalks these days
is just as apt to be a lion as a
scion.
Uncle Sam has published the
the first comprehensive survey
on who does the hunting and
fishing in these United States.
It reveals that women, in num
bers which amaze the U. S. Fish
and Wildlife Service, are tak
ing to field and stream.
The researchers, hired by Cros
slcy, S-D Surveys, Inc., reported
that 4,836,000 women hunted or
fished in 1955. The figure is
about 20 per cent of the total
of 25 million men, women and
children over 12 who hunted or
fished.
The ervice wanted to deter
mine how many "man days' and
how much money were spent on
the two sports.
Spending in 1955 totalled near
ly S3 billion on everything from
food to ammunition, the survey
estimated.
The researcher did not at
tempt to determine just how
much of the total was spent by
women. But they did find that
women take to rod and reel more
often than the rifle.
Some 5 million women fished
in 1955; only 250.000 hunted.
But the hunters are a fearless
lot gunning for big game as well
as small game and waterfowl,
alongside the men.
Reasons for the increase in
women anglers and hunters the
researchers didn't find offic
ially. But they unofficially go
along with one candid wife ww
said "my husband is an avid
fisherman. I decided if I couldn't
change him, I'd join him."
The researchers found whole
families who hunt and fish, al
though some of the women said,
"We do more cooking than catch
ing." The 300 interviewers most
of them were women also
were an intrepid lot. One woman
hired a jeep, a guide and borrow
ed long underwear during a winter-time
trek into rugged terri
tiry in California.
Another, who later confessed
she'd never before ridden horse
back, hired a pack mule to reach
one remote area.
"I've had men leer at me, dogs
bite me, floods deter me," an
other wrote her supervisor. But
like the postman, neither snow,
nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom . ."

Ronnie My husband rejects
the aptitude tests.
Jack I know my boy is good
for business.
. ..Ronnie Our boy is going in
to his senior year in high school,
and we are naturally thinking
of his future. -My husband is
terribly anxious to have him go
into his business, but he has
taken aptitude tests that, to my
mind, indicate that he should
not.
My husband. Jack, was op
posed to his taking the aptitude
tests, but they were recommend
ed by the high school and he
reluctantly agreed.. The aptitude
tests showed a marked scientific
bent in our boy, and indicated
; that he would not be at his best
in dealing with people.
My husband is furious be
cause I want to encourage the
boy in the direction indicated.
-
Jack I have worked very
hard to establish my little re
tail business. I had my fill of
being kicked around from pil
lar to post in my younger days,
and I know the value of being
your own boss and working to
build something for yourself and
your family.
1 don't care what the aptitude
tests show. Our boy has always
wanted to come with me to the
store and has never complained
about helping. It is true that he
is shy and doesn't wait on cus
tomers. But he is very useful
and willing when he helps me.
and he seems to know a good
deal about the merchandise.
Maybe it's all right in Russia
for the authorities to disregard
the parents and tell a child how
he should run his life, but I
feel that I should have some
thing to say about my son's fu
ture. The Council: Aptitude - tests
are a modern educational tool,
but they should not be mistaken
for destiny or used as a sub
stitute for free, conscious deci
sion. The fact that this boy' ap
titude tests do not disclose a
talent for dealing with people
and indicate other aptitudes
should not bar him from an op
portunity in his father's busi
ness. For one thing there are,
as the father points out, other
phases to the business besides
waiting on customers. For
another thing, it is possible to
overcome the weaknesses in
dicated by an aptitude test.
The father surely has a right
to expose this boy to his busi
ness and to encourage him to
enter it. On the other hand, if
the boy has been made to feel
that he dare not aspire to some
other career, that would be
wrong.
In this case, it seems that the
mother misunderstands the pur
pose of the aptitude test and
wants to rule out the family busi
ness simply because the aptitude
test disclosed that the boy has
some feeling for science.
If the boy knows the merch
andise and has skill in manage
ment, the fact that he lacks the
disposition to make small talk
with the customers should not
prove the decisive factor. He
can hire a good salesclerk when
the time comes for him to run
the business.

Can you find the "guarantee"
in this picture?
You buy a refrigerator only two or three time
in your lifetime.
Yet you don't hesitate to buy one without
getting so much as a look at the intricate "works"
that makes it run.
How do you dare make such an important
purchase without having an expert check it over
for you? What makes you so sure you're getting
your money's worth when you say, "I'll take
that one"?
The answer's obvious. You look for the brand
name on the refrigerator your "guarantee."
You've learned to follow this first rule of safe
and sound buying:
A good brand is your best guarantee
No matter what kind of product you want to
buy, you know a good brand won't let you down.
You know the -maker stands back of it guar
antees it. And so, when you buy a good brand
you know you're right. '
Read this newspaper to find out which are
the good brands, (and the stores that sell them.)
The more good brands you know, the surer you
are about all your shopping. v
