A SPORTSMAN'S DELIGHT - 'HONKERS' IN FLIGHT! A thrill for any sports- man, whether or not he is a hunter, is seen here! A large flock of Canadian geese, their huge wings in a variety of all flight posi- tions, pass over a low cloud bank, in front of the setting sun, as they head for a rest stop, at the Bobmay Hook Game Refuge, at Smyrna, Del. Thousands of geese, each year, use the refuge as a resting place, enroute south for the Winter. Many others, however, decide the 'MONTAGUE CENTER, Mass. (AP)--Buck Masters-- known to deer hunters as a rugged, bearded, fearless man of the woods--is a lady. For four years an average of 300 hunters a year have written and scores more have telephoned wanting hunting tips or the chance to go hunt- ing with the great Buck Mas- ters. , Mrs. Barbara Craven, with the Pioneer Valley Associa- tion, a tourist and industrial promotion organization, ac- knowledges that it was she "BUCK -- BIG DEER HUNTER, BUT SHE'S CHOST WRITER who created Masters and is the author .of all his advice to hunters.

Most hunt- ers greatly over-estimate the |speed at which ducks and geese) fly and probably the common} flying speed is between 40 and) 50 miles an hour. Mr. Wainio stated that the size and shape of the wings in comparison with the weight of la bird, is an important factor in| ldetermining the speed of flight. | /The smaller the wings in propor-| tion to the weight the greater area is far enough south, and semain until Spring.

CANADA OUTDOORS '65 Waterfowl Season Was Average Or Lower By JOHN LeBLANC Canadian Press Staff Writer It hasn't been a season to make Canadian waterfowl hun- ters throw their caps in the air. The fall run of birds shows a spotty pattern around the coun- try, according to a Cross-Can- ada Survey by The Canadian Press. It was no better than av- erage in most areas, and in some it went below. The usual large pintail migra- tion failed to show up in British Columbia, creating something of a puzzle. R. G. Harris, water- fowl biologist with the Canadian Wildlife Service, said it indi- cated losses in the Alaska breed- {ng areas last summer but the) cause has not been determined) exactly. | The reports generally showed that the breeding grounds are making a comeback from a drought that sharply cut down waterfowl. production a few) years ago but that the birds have not yet fully caught up) with the losses. | RATIOS ARE GOOD Wherever officials could as- certain {t, the proportion of ju- venile to adult birds in | southbound flights appeared to) be good. : { The picture by provinces: | Britisn Cotumbla:Apart from: pintails, the duck population) was fairly normal by recent} standards with the teal migra-) tion up; mallards about even} Kerry Way And Romeo Hanover Rre Voted Bes (AP) | | | Ohio COLUMBUS, Harness racing writers have se-|/____ lected Kerry Way and Romeo) Hanover as the best two-year-| old trotter and pacer, respec-} tively, in the annual poll con-| ducted by the U.S. Trotting As sociation The association said Kerry Way, a filly, beat out second-) place Amastar with 37 votes, and Governor Armbro with 29 Gainesway Farm of Lexing-| ton, Ky., owns Kerry Way and Frank Ervin is the trainer.

The over- all population of. ducks and geese is still down from several years ago. Kills were about av- erage. Alberta:Another minor mys- tery developed when the usu- ally - prédictable snow geese changed their migration pattern for some unaccounted reason and flew through from the Northwest Territories ahead of schedule. Otherwise, there were no notable changes. The provin- clal lands and forests depart- ment reported populations "about as expected" -- down will be the speed required for the bird to maintain its position Speed Of Ducks In Flight Hunters' Argument Topic Canada goose, 60 mph air speed, chased. Brant, 45 mph air speed. Snow goose, 50 mph,(approx.) air speed, chased. Mallard, 46, 50, 55, 58, 60 mph 'air speeds, Pintail, 65 mph (approx.) air speed, chased. Shoveller, 53 mph ground speed, easy flight, automobile. Redhead, 42 mph_ ground speed, train. Canvasback, 72 mph (ap- prox.) air speed, chased. Golden-eye, 50 mph ground speed, train. The flight speed of a duck fly- ing against or with the wind, is that of its speed due to its own exertions (its air speed) minus or plus the exact speed of the wind. For example a duck fly- ing at an air speed of 40 mph with a wind of 30 mph would have a ground speed of 70 mph. However, if the same duck with the same air speed was flying into a wind of 30 mph, the bird's ground speed would be only 10 mph. that when two birds of a similar) type are once in the air, the) heavier bird is the faster. | Although there are records of | lbirds observed at very high al-| \titudes above sea level most of | \the evidence obtained thus far! lindicates that the majority of| bird migrations take place be-| low the altitude of 3000 feet -- most of it below 1000 feet with indications the birds prefer to fly below the cloud level. i Stop-watches, the automobile speedometer and the air speed indicator of the aeroplane, have) furnished many reliable records on the speed of ducks.
