2 2 . Transfer the Heat GETTING AWAY from fishing for the moment and considering squirrels, which are in season, we still remain slightly pessimistic and this time we'll put the heat on Harrell F. Mosbaugh, state fish and game director, in case some of you go out and bag the limit in so many shots. Harrell reports that dry weather and inexperienced hunters has Xept the “take” down and not very many squirrels are being spotted. For instance in two days hunting at Morgan-Monroe state forest 69 squirrels were seen while only 19 were spotted in three days at Clark forest and 25 appeared in a week at Prances Slocum. However some 40 ruffed grouse were observed at Morgan Munroe, which is a very encouraging sign considering that the big birds were almost extinct before the “Law” stepped in and gave them protection. Wardens also report that some hunters will never learn. Some have gone out for squirrels again this year decked out in white shirts. They might as well walk through the woods beating a drum —the squirrels aren't that dumb, you've got io see them first.
