CONOCO credit card j • • , Rules For Hunters ,ot Upland Game Thousands of sportsmen have or will soon be taking to the field as the upland game hunting season begins in Illinois. Cock pheasants, quail, Hungarian partridge and rabbits became legal targets for Illinoisans at sunrise on Nov. 11. The season will con­ tinue this year through Jan. 15. "This is the first time we have begun the hunting at sunrise for a number of years," said Jim Vavra of the Illinois Department of Conservation. "The noon opening time was both obsolete and burdensome. There was no reason why we shouldn't begin the season at sunrise. Sunrise is the time indicated by the Illinois Standard Shooting Timetable." BAG LIMITS Bag limits for upland game this year are: cock pheasants, two per day with a possession limit of four after the first day's hunt ; quail, eight per day with a possession limit of 16 after the first day's hunt; Hungarian partridge, six per day with a possession limit of 12 after the first day ; and the bag limit for rabbits is five per day with a possession limit of 10 after opening day. Hunters should remember that they must have permission to hunt on privately owned land. PERMISSION - HUNTER AND DOG "Having permission to hunt on a farmer's land doesn't give the hunter the right to destroy property or endanger livestock," Lockart said. "Always make sure of the target before firing. Make sure that you're not firing at a house or at the livestock. Leave the property the same way you found it, close all gates you go through and hunt only on property the farmer allows you to hunt. Areas that are posted 'no hunting' must be avoided by the hunter unless permission has been secured." A new Illinois statutory law provides that the hunter must not only secure permission to hunt from landlord or tenant, but must also secure per­ mission to hunt or have his dog work game within 200 yards of a building on adjoining property. The Illinois Agricultural Association is urging hunters to stay clear of crops that have not yet been harvested. Un­ seasonable rains have caused many delays in harvesting in parts of the state. "A hunter who destroys a farmer's crops will probably not be welcome the next time he asks to hunt nor will other hunters," Lockart warned. "And, it is also dangerous to hunt in standing crops as the hunter has limited visibility. "Good manners and safe hunting go hand-in-hand 1. More than 90 percent of the land in Illinois is privately owned. Good hun te r - f a rmer realtionships are essential if hunters are to have places to hunt." A little boy close to our hearts was praised at our supper table for eating everything on his plate. "I'm eating a lot to get ready for Thanksgiving," was his explanation. EARL WALSH So I Hear SPORTS EDITOR, For our part, it might be well to push away from the table for a few days to get ready for turkey and dressing. Stories of the good old days always tell of rides over the snow to Grandma's house for Thanksgiving dinner. That isn't just a story in our case. There always seemed to be plenty of snow on the ground and a bobsled ride was the usual thing. Straw on the floor of the sled and plenty of blankets made the ride a great joy. Cold weather seemed to put extra life in the horses. And, was Grandma glad to see us! The old cook stove was booming, the reservoir at the end of die stove was bubbling, the odor of cooking was stimulating, and the hug from Grandma (after she wiped her hands on her long apron) ihade life worth living. It seems Grandma always wore a long apron and used it to pick up the eggs, to pick up wood chips for kindling -- there were a thousand uses for Grandma's apron. In early school days Thanksgiving took on a special Study may provide intelli­ gence but it takes thinking to develop wisdom.

We saw pictures and read stories of the Pilgrims attending church services to thank God for their blessings before sitting down to a bountiful feast. Friendly Indians were pic­ tured standing near the Pilgrims. Our only question to the authenticity of the pictures was why those Indians weren't wearing more clothes. This holiday is still special to us, but it has been over­ shadowed since Christmas has been so commercialized. We saw metal Christmas trees on display in September. Cards were on the racks before Halloween. Advertisers used the same old baloney in urging people to buy now and pay next year. Christmas is a joyous season. 'Twould be nice to see the spirit linger throughout the year, but the ballyhoo period could be shortened. Turkey days have come and gone and memories of relatives gathering 'round are vivid. Some are no longer with us. We can only pray that turkeys and contentment abound in their happy hunting grounds. We wish each and every one of you a peaceful, happy day. Thank God for many blessings. Happy Thanksgiving Day. Don't worry too much about your boy or girl--just be sure their parents set them an example worth fol­ lowing.

If you have, you know it's not a pleasant experience. If the water and the air temperature are cold and you're wearing your heavy winter clothing the experience is even less en­ joyable. Certainly many people don't plan on going into the water during the colder months, but for safety's sake, maybe they should. It seems that even though Coast Guard approved preservers and vests offer the maximum protection and are required by law (one for every person on board), many people find them too bulky or un­ comfortable to wear especially with their heavy bulkier cold- weather clothing. To help overcome this problem the Coast Guard for several years has approved life-saving devices specifically designed for special situations such as hunting and fishing. People can get personal flotation devices fitted to themselves and the heavy winter clothing they intend to wear. The decision to wear your personal flotation device is a personal one and should be weighed heavily with the consideration of weight of clothes and the coldness of the water in mind. A person who is a good swimmer and might not wear a personal flotation device in the summer might wisely decide to wear one in the cooler weather when his strength and endurance as a swimmer would be much decreased by the cold and the amount of clothing he is wearing. An exposure suit or wet suit is another device which, when worn under the clothes, may save the life of a dunked cold- weather sportsman. Although it will keep him warm even in cold water it does not provide sufficient flotation when wearing wet heavy clothing. In that respect there is no sub­ stitute for the Coast Guard approved lifesaving device. Anthony Bianchi is chairman of Flotilla 3-2, McHenry area U.S. Coas^Guar^auxiliary. The individual who is willing to learn from experi­ ence can become better ed­ ucated than the collegian who has a few degrees for hard work on his books.
