In the jungles of marsh and dunes ( there was an abundance of mallards, canvas backs, red heads, pin tails, blue wing teals and occasional swan and once a pelican before the smoke of steel mills drove them away and the nightly glare from the blast furnaces obscured the stars and moon. Tliis abundance of game was the cause of feud half a century ago, according to J. William Lester, member of the Gary Historical Society who is recording the events in Lake county history. A number of wealthy men came down from Chicago and formed the Tolleston Gun Club, Lester said. They laid out game reservations and kept out the earlier settlers and farmers, hunters, trappers, long accustomed to the freedom of the wilderness. The intrusion was bitterly resented and there a time when guns were louden and deadly ambushes resulted in bloodshed. The hostilities and frequent battles continued up until surveys laid out the land where the mills belch forth their smoke. It was called then “the dark and bloody land of the Calumet.” “Game wardens were employed by the club,” Lester said. “They kept off the trespassers and the battle — for the encounters deserve the name —which took place between them and the natives kept the coroners, surgeons and courts busy ever since the first Chicago millionaire shot his first mallard in an Indiana marsh." But the inarsh land, with the‘bloodStains of its pioneers is still being reclaimed —Io make way for more industries and there is talk that Gary will some day be the largest city west of New York. Engineers are working on a plan now to re-open the cannels of the Calumet river to reclaim great tracts and thereby write the last chapter of hunting in the famous Calumet.

Zbur Guarantee of Service Red Crown Gasoline Causes Less Carbon — That’s the signed statement of the pilot of the new Mitchell F-50, who ran 10,000 miles with a sealed hood and used Red Crown Gasoline throughout the trip. He says the spark plugs were as clean as new, the valves sharp and bright, carbon deposit on cylinder head and piston tops was negligible. That’s the answer to using a gasoline that burns clean and gives perfect combustion. USE RED CROWN The High-Grade Winter Gasoline It is made to fit your car no matter where you are. It never varies in quality. It starts easily, even in severely cold weather.
