Eastern Bfack Ducks Scarce Several important factors limiting black duck abundance have been an» nounced by Ducks Unlimited, following a survey conducted by that of ganization, assisted by Canadian and U. S. government agencies in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. These are given as destruction of nests by spring floods, egg eating by predatory crows and scarcity of aquatic insect foods considered essential for young ducklings. A surprising discovery was the large numbers of breeding ring-necked ducks, heretofore considered a western species. Almost as many ringnecks as black ducks were found ia the survey. w 3 0, 0 1 0 0 0| Severe buuuum Contrary to popular belief, sunburn is not as severe at the seashore as it is in the mountains, according to the Better Vision institute. The burning ultra-violet rays in the sunshine are absorbed to a large extent by the atmosphere. At high altitudes where the sun rays move less distance through the air, and thus lose less of their tanning power, the burning of the skin is more rapid ar.d more severe than at sea level. But whether one goes to the shore or to the mountains for a vacation, it's a good idea, coo-' eludes the institute, to wear sunglasses to protect the eyes from harmful ultra-violet rays. Seed Pellets Plastic, artificial coatings applied to seeds are a new research development'for conserving farm labor and increasing crop yields. The first experiments were made with sugar beet clusters of seed. When planted, clusters of seedlings come up which have to be thinned by hand. Modern research has discovered , how to "segment" the seed clusj ters so as to separate individual I seeds. But these individual seeds i are of such irregular shapes that I they cannot be planted evenly. Furj ther research led to discovery that i irregularly shaped seeds can be rolled into spherical "pills" with a plastic coating that resembles the seed coat in water-absorbing qualities, does not interfere with germination, and permits planting with mathematical heeuracy. i away with another big, fast, rugged 10 and experienced bunch.

The East, outside of Army and Navy, won't be much different. The Far West still has a wide gap to close. The best pick along the Pacific will be St. Mary's, where Jimmy Phelan gave out one of the best coaching jobs I've ever seen and where Herman Wedemeyer will again be a vital factor. What about the two pro leagues? We'll turn that over to the Delphic Oracle. What about boxing?
