wit take place at maple rock this is a team event with fiveman teams rep resenting each club at last weeks county coun cil meeting councillors were again faced with the question of whether or not halton should have an open deer sea son this year two other suggestions were also brought forward chem ical control of deer population the pill or selective killing from our experiences with deer it would appear the deer are far too smart for any man to select- certain deer and kill only those if the professional hunter is what they mean by selective killing it is certain the killing will not be selective and indeed it would take a very good hunter to make any ap preciable dent in the deer herds if he intends hunting them by himself dtfkg the deer to admin ister the pim should also prove interesting last year the reason given for not having a season was there was too much damage by hunters a check of the previ ous deer season indicated no reports were turned in to the department of lands and for ests of damage any farm ani mal shot by aunt eis is paid for by the department if it is re ported to them further investigation revealed that the committee of county council that deals with the deer season had indeed had a com plaint it seems a certain farm er who prides himself in his purebred sheep which are ap parently kept for show pur poses was the lone cocnplainer heres a scmbre satistical warning in accidents that oc cur at highway speeds the likelihood of death increases about 10 per cent for each one- u increase over 53 mph thus the chances of being kill ed is twice as great in a 65 mph crash as it is at s5 sash somehow a gate was left open by persons unknown and the wrong sheep got -together- and followed their natural in stincts which produced un wanted crossbred lambs while we sympathize with the fanner in his loss as far as we can determine no evidence was given to prove that hunters wre responsible however the blame wavtplaced on the hunt ers by the fanner and the re sulting uproar to committee members caused the refusal given to the idea of a deer sea son the government of this coun ty is indeed in sad shape when one unproven case of damage by hunters can cause thous ands of hunters to loose the right to an open deer season to appease one farmer the mem bers of council should base their opinions on the desires of the people whom they are sup posed to represent and not be swayed by one lone complain- er other information received indicates the county has no le gal right to control any wildlife seasons this is a custom that has evolved over the years al though there is no legal basis for it we are of the opinion it is time the department of lands and forests took over the control of wildlife which is rightfully heirs and give the people of southern ontario some sensible wildlife control based on what is needed to keep the wildlife population at a desirable level athletic awards night at school honors outstanding athletes teams
