He again pounded out 30 or more Home Runs for the fourth year in a row. He led the club for the second ye$r in a row batting 300.

This alone, the Canadian .Wildlife Service says, may save from 20 to 33 percent of the ducks which otherwise Would have been bagged before they crossed the border. Anyone who traveled through the prairie provinces last summer needs no convincing that the "duck factory" was next to bone dry. There, where about half the continent's ducks are produced, severe drouth can have a disastrous effect on * ducks. Season length was cut sharply .in, the prairie provinces, with "tfye cut coming at the beginning :o£ the season. ; '"Even with the larger Canadian bag limits and the chance to have first crack at the fall flights, the Canadian hunter fares qjily slightly better than hunters in North Dakota, Minnesota and Louisiana in terms of ducks killed per hunter. Contrary to what many state side hunters might think, the Canadian places just as much ; value on wild waterfowl as his - American counterpart. Cana- * da's effort to preserve waterv fowl and hunting prove it. ; Canada has programmed mil- * lions of dollars to preserve im- ; portant waterfowl nesting areas. - Substantial funds also are being spent on accelerated research on waterfowl, including grants to universities and graduate scholarships to wildlife biologists. Will these millions of dollars for a^uisition and research save ducks? The world of the wild duck ; is changing radically. Im- ; proved management offers the * only solution to saving thishar- * dy migrant. Only research can provide the facts needed to de- " sign improved management pro- ; grams. ;; Today's Canadians, accustomed for decades to seeing ducks in abundance, no longer take them for granted. If they have their way, both Canadian and American hunters will have ducks and geese to hunt for a / long time to come. p v \ U in a row in driving in 98 R. s , B.I.'s. ' As you can readily see, he led the Chicago Cubs in every catagory offensively and defensively - he broke an all time major league assist record for third basemen, breaking his own record of 391 assists with 393. He also broke one of the oldest standing records in the major leagues by leading in assists for six (6) consecutive years breaking Pye Trainers record of five (5). This year Ron received another honor getting 18 of the 20 - writers votes for MVP player in the National League. He came in fourth, one of the highest ratings of any Chicago players in recent years, receiving 103 points. Ron has also been honored as the Chicago player of the year, and recently been honored by the Houston Athletic Association to be the recipient of the Eddie Dyer Award. Ron® Santo moved into the regular lineup for the Cubs in 1960 in only his second year in pro ball. He signed with the Cubs organization after graduation from Franklin High in Seattle in 1959.

The Hurricanes will almost be at full strength for the first time this year. Coach Tom Parker said this week. Bill Feffer Hope we can all enjoy that extra hour of sleep Sunday morning when the clocks are turned back. Betcha you will wake up at the same old time. It has started again. We are getting letters telling us about our lucky number and maybe (just maybe) we have already won a new car, five thousand dollars or something like a trip to Timbuctu. We were down to only three people in the community last year on the list for a big prize. That's what the letter said. Hunters tell us the geese are honkin' and the ducks are quackin'. The season is on right now for hunting geese. They are big blimps, but hard to bring down. Duck season opens Nov. 2 at sunrise. Hunters will be out bright and early that morning and it won't take an alarm clock to get them out of their warm beds and into cold blinds. We are getting a little tired of office seekers slamming each other and will be glad when election day is over. GLENN BECKERT Infielder. Bats Right. Throws Right.

Another idea is to paint opposite walls a color darker than the other two to make the room seem more oblong.

Harrell, Knoxvllle, Tennessee: I remember plainly the early and middle eighteen-nineties, days of panics or depressions In the Cleveland administration. Poor country people had to be resourceful to earn a living, especially a family of ten sons and one daughter, as was my father's, in the red hills of Georgia. Father keep us on the go and we didn't have time to* Set hungry ot to go ragged. le grew plenty of corn and wheat to afford our bread and plenty to feed our livestock and plenty to grow our pigs for bacon and hams and pure lard. Father usually had forty to fifty sheep and usually, when sheep - shearing time camei around, the early part of May, ^ my father would receive a batch of samples of woolen cloth from mills in Atlanta and Roswell. They would offer so many yards of cloth for so many pounds of clean, washed wool. The cloth was all the way from fine cashmere to heavy bulldog jeans. We boys usually washed the wool. When father shipped the wool and received the cloth, mother, grandmother,and the old maid aunts got on the job to see the cloth was made into pants for we children before cold weather set in. A garment was never discarded until it was worn out; it was passed down from one boy to another. (Sand contribution* to column to IhoOM Timor, Den 639, Frortirfori, Uonnfucfry 4Q&0.)
