HUNTING

- » am A ———i

The game conservation wardens of Maine are hunting on their own preserves these days—hunting for saboteurs. The anglers and nimrods have packed their equipment away until spring but there is no let-up for the boys

who protect the game resources.

Inland Fisheries and

Game Commissioner George J. Steele has placed a plan

in operation for the protection of the forests and the running down of saboteurs. Spies might use the wil-

derness areas as hiding places or bases of operation, he says. Therefore, every member of the force has been given special instructions and they are to maintain a continuous vigilance. ss 25s The Crooked Creek Conservation & Gun Club is sponsoring a charity shoot tomorrow at the Club grounds located just south of Kessler Boulevard on State Road 29. The proceeds are to be donated to the local chapter of the American Red Cross. The all-day program features five-man matches between local conservation and gun clubs. The events are still open to public participation.

Outdoor Indiana in commenting on the duck season points out the remarkable change in the attitude

To Star List

EDGEWATER PARK, Miss, Dec. 2 (U. P).— Heres a name the keepers of the Sugar Bowl archives might as well get acquainted with pronto—Maurice Wade. He plays quarterback on Missouri's Big Six

champions and come Jan. 1 he may take his place with Charlie O'Rourke of Boston College, John Kimbrough of Texas A. and M., Davey O'Brien of Texas Christian and other heroes. When Missouri shoots the works at Fordham’s robust Rams, Wade is the fellow wholl finger the trigger on a considerable amount of the Tigers’ lethal ammunition. Since the purpose is to get acquainted with Maurice Wade, let's drop the Maurice gag right now. Only two persons can call him that and get away with it—Mark Cox, Missouri's publicity man, and Ollie Devictor, the team trainer,

Just ‘Red Wade’

“I'm just Red Wade,” the Missouri back insists. “Please don't call me anything else. I let Mark and Ollie call me Maurice because I have to humor them. They are real prima donnas and I like to kee; harmony in the ranks” Wade isn't the starting quarterback on the Missouri team but like George McAfee, who also isnt a starter for the pro champion Chicago Bears, things begin to happen fast and furiously when Coach Don Faurot takes the wraps off his ambidextrous sophomore. At the kickoff Wade sits next to Coach Faurot on the Missouri bench sizing up the other club, Harry ice, the senior starting quarterback who is no slouch, occupies his spot because of experience and seniority. Wade, who hails from Mountain Grove, Mo. heart of the Ozark Country, can pass with either hand and kick with either foot, but passing and kicking are just sidelines. Running is his racket. In his firs’ ball game in Missouri uniform against Ohio State, he burst through the middle of the Buckeye line and ran 28 yards for a touchdown. It happened so fast that few people in the park knew where the ball was.

of hunters as the basic gain of the year. It was a fair season after a rather slow start but the attitude of the sportsmen changed from that of “mere killers of game” to conservationists, the magazine says. “In the good old days of the Kankakee, hunters shot in the spring, killed each his hundred or more ducks, and brought back great bags of the birds to distribute to friends. Groups of wealthy hunters would attempt to control vast acreage of marshes, warning other sportsmen off their leased grounds. In those days the success of a ut seemed to depend on the killing a large number of ducks. Today the hunter is satisfied with one or two. And the hunter of today seems to have as good a hunt.”

The Xmas Mail rv = _ Brought Some Fancy Cards

By JACK GUENTHER United Press Staf? Correspondent

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.—The mail which comes to rest on any sport writer's desk is an odd jumble at best. For the most part it contains strong dissents from readers, advertisements from typewriter

| manufacturers or the happy tidings | that Rah Rah Tech will renew | chess hostilities with its hated rival, Pulse Normal, in 1948. But on Christmas it's different. During Christmas week there is more of it, for one thing, and the envelopes are larger and thicker and arrayed in bold colors. They bear the names of ball players, the pictures of prize fighters and even the hoof prints of horses. Some of the names youve forgotten and some you never knew, but for the majority, they are names almost everyone knows. Let's Take a Look

fats look at the mail together today. For instance, here's a brown and red card from Red Strader, foothall coach at St. Mary's, complete with silhouettes of seven beefy linemen poised for a charge — presumably t Fordham. And here is a picture card from the Cinderella man, James J. Braddock. with a reminder to remember Young Kid McCoy, the “next welterweight champion of the world, compliments of Joe Gou Dig a little deeper and there is 2 crimson and silver card engraved with the name of Alfred Gwynne vanderbilt. And a cool, white and silver folder from the coaches at Notre Dame. Then a plain, unsigned letter from Ft. Dodge, Towa, inclosing a clipping of a column about Bobby Feller joining the Navy. On it is scribbled, “Nuts to you: Write about Colin Kelly.” From Dan Mahany, the manager of Calumet Farm down in the bluegrass, comes the portrait of a fuzzy, leggy colt sired by Bull Lea, The youngsters name is Destiny, one of the best I've ever heard and one which may some day be flashed out as the winner of the Kentucky Derby. Then a bill from—oops, sorry, that one isn’t for display. Here is a single sheet from Princeton, with the towers etched against a background of snow. And a flowery red card from Liou Nova, one of the few who addresses his en-

cito invites us to drop back again sometime, and a says now is the time to renew that subscription.

The Biscuit Is Fatter

Next comes a scold from a resident of Pasadena, Cal, who says I “stabbed us and our fair city (Pasadena) in the back when we are down” when I wrote about the transfer of the Rose Bowl to Durham, N. C. Also a letter from the father of Hill Dudley, Virginia's All-America back, saying thanks for the story about his boy. Here is a whopper—a beautiful photograph of Seabiscuit, bless him, standing af ease before a magnificently large tree on Ridgewood Ranch. His domestic home in California. Charley Hov rd. white hat on his head and his 185 pounds settled squarely in the saddle, is in the irons. The Biscuit ‘s fatter. And a comic strip from the incorrigible Peter Pan, Jimmy Joy Johnston, and there is no good will preferred here. It shows Jimmy gazing into a crystal ball and watéhing Conn, Nova and the two Bears quit-

ting to Joe Louis in various posi-

tions. In the corner a caricature of Mike Jacobs with a money bag carries the question, “Who said Scrooge

is dead?” Tsk, Johnston, tsk, tsk.

Keep Raised Leg Free

The Bears Are Pro Foothall

By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff? Correspondent NEW YORK, Dec. 26 —The saga of the Chicago Bears, a big, bruising team with a savage scoring punch that made many experts rate it the greatest gridiron aggregation “lof modern times, is the story of professional football in 1941, There were a number of other notable developments in the National Football League but all were related, more or less, to the Bears and their fabulous owner-coach, George Halas, Among them were: (1) The resignation of Elmer Layden as Notre Dame football coach to become commissioner of the National Football League, Feb. 3. The Bears even had a hand in this since Halas was one of the prime movers in the surprise deal. 2. Record crowds with a total attendance of 1,188,616 for the 55 regularly scheduled games—an increase of 9 per cent over the 1940 attendance of 1,063,022. 8. The first divisional playoff since the East-West lineup was made in 1933, with the Bears beating the Green Bay Packers, 33-14, before a crowd of 43425 (not included in the above attendance figures). 4. The first champion ever to repeat since the East-West playoffs were instituted with the Bears—who slugged the Washington Redskins, 73-0, last December—slapping down the New York Giants, 37-9.

How Did That Happen?

The Bears did amazing things and it becomes increasingly puzzling as to how the Packers could give Halas’ big, bruisers their lone defeat of the year, Nov. 2. Green Bay won, 16-14, but the Bears came so close to winning in the last minute of play that it wasn't funny. The previously had beaten the Packers, 25-17, and then they proved that their one loss was a fluke when they murdered Curly Lambeau’s charges in the divisional playoff game after spotting them a touchdown in the first two minutes of play, The Giants, who won the Eastern title despite two losses to their archrivals, the Brooklyn Dodgers, put up a’ game battle for one half of the championship playoff but suecumbed in the end. They held the Bears to three field goals for a half bu?’ the Bears ran wild in the seeond half. In winning 10 games and losing one during their regular season the Bears rolled up 3968 points (an average of 368 per game) and set eight new team records among them being a new mark for total yards gained (4265), touchdowns (56), and first downs (181). It got so late in the season that the Bears, deploying from the modern T, were so good they could score almost anytime they got their hands on the ball,

Finally Got Too Good

But the Bears finally became too good for themselves. After they massacred the packers in the Western playoff, the fans turned a cold shoulder on them and only 13,500 turned out for the championship playoff with the Giants. The Bears were rated 4-1 favorites and nobody gave the Giants a chance. The “Back of the Year” was the Bears’ George McAfee, rated by many as the greatest since Red Grange. The “End of the Year” was Don Hutson, Green Bay's pass catching wizard who set a new scering record of 95 points. The “Lineman of the Year” was Clyde (Bull dog) Turner, Bears’ sophomore center who proved one of the most viclous tacklers and defenders in football history.

BRITAIN MOURNS HONGKONG FALL

Gallant Defense Praised; Fate of Troops Seized by Japs Is Not Known.

LONDON, Dee. 26 (U. P.).—Britons mourned the loss of Hongkong today but took pride in its gallant defense by British, Canadian and Indian rote, and promised that it would restored to British No Military authorities here knew nothing of the fate of the men who were now prisoners of the Japanese, and had only Japanese of the surrender on Christmas Day after a stand against odds which, it was known from the first, were

Hongkong Government's message,” a commentator said. “Nothing is known of the final stages of the fighting and it is questionable what we will ever get on it. I do know that one of the great difficulties at the end was water supplies.” Sir Mark Young, Governor, had advised the Colonial Office that military and naval commanders had told him that no further effective defense could be made. It was emphasized also that although the Japanese were attacking in Malaya and Borneo, Hongkong, aside from the channel islands off the English Coast which the Germans seized early in the war, was the only part of purely British territory under enemy control. Recaplure Necessary Military experts said that the loss of Hongkong meant that after 100 years, during which Hongkong had been a key point in the Empiré life line, Britain had now been deprived of an important advanced striking base for the day when the Allied general offensive starts. Otherwise, they said, the loss was insignificant, because Japanese ene croachment in China had long ago destroyed its value as a naval base and a port. It was admitted that the British must rewin Hongkong to make a really effective attack on Japan when the day comes, but first cone trol of the surrounding area must be seized.

3872 ACRES ADDED T0 STATE FORESTS

BEDFORD, Ind, Dec. 268 (U. P). —Additional forest land purchases in Indiana totaling 3872 acres have|} been approved by the National For est Reservation Commission, acs cording to Rudolph H. Grabow, Ine diana director for forest purchases.

Forty separate transactions were | secs involved, Mr. Grabow said, with most of the land bought being cute over timber or worn-out fields. With the latest acquisitions, a total of 72,465 acres have been approved by the commission in forest purchases in the southern part of the state. Much of the land bought in the past two years has been tax delinquent and former owners use the purchase funds not only to clear their back payments, but also to pay up mortgages and back taxes on properties still held.
