A 12 -day pheasont hunting
season with the season bag cut
from eight to six, a 30 day duck
season with the daily bag cut
i from seven to four, and the open-
/ j�•; ing of additional deer hunting ter-
ritory are the major new rules
\
for the 1947 hunting season ap-
proved by the conservation com-
mission
in
he Higgins ts us Lakeconservation
\ training school.
Michigan shares the nationwide
slump in pheasant numbers, and
the 10 -day shorter season, Octo-
ber 15 to October 26, is expected
to reduce the illegal kill of hens.
Summer reports of game men and conservation officers have indi-
cated fewer pheasants than there were a year ago.
Deer hunters have had their territory increased by roughly one
tier of counties, as the southern boundary of the open zone has been
moved southward to highway M-50 from Lake Michigan to Grand
Rapids, along highway M-21 from Grand Rapids to highway M-13
east of Owosso, and north along highways M-13, US -23 and M-47 to
Saginaw bay, excluding the Thumb. Expansion of the deer herd and
resultant damage to agricultural crops prompeted the boundary
extension.
Deer hunting regulations are otherwise unchanged, except as
the Legislature authorized bow and arrow hunting for "one deer"—
buck, doe or fawn—October 11 -November 5 in 17 counties besides
Allegan: Gogebic, Roscommon, Montmorency, Crawford, Newaygo,
Alpena, Benzie, Leelanau, Iosco, Montcalm, Ionia, Oscoda, Ontona-
gon, Iron, Schoolcraft, Mackinac and Luce.
Michigan's waterfowl hunting regulations, drawn up in: con-
formity with federal rules, permit hunting October 7 to November 5,
from sunrise ,to one hour before sunset, except on opening day when
shooting starts at noon: This is ` an hour ' less shooting daily than
hunters had last,..,year.._._The daily. bag limit is four ducks, of which
one may be a wood duck, the possession limit is eight, of which still
only.:one`maq be .a wood "duck:` ,Permissible bag and possessionlimit
for geese is four; which may `include one 'Canada or one white front-
ed goose:_ Tine bag limit for, coots is 25. All state regulations on; duck
blinds have lbeen abolished
Regulations .'for hunting., ruffed grouse, prairie chickens, sharp -
tailed grouse, fox squirrels and gray squirrels, bears, and raccoons,
and for trapping muskrats, were approved by the commission ex-
actly as they were a year ago.
The band taken from a mallard drake shot in the Erie marsh
last fall was worn as smooth as an old wedding rings but hunters -
sent it to the conservation department anyway, in hope of learning
in what far-off places the duck had been.
Through chemical treatment by Fish and Wildlife service experts
the numbering was deciphered, but geographically the case was dis-
appointing; the band had been put on at Mill lake, in the Waterloo
area, only a couple of counties away.
Asan index of duck ages in these times of heavy hunting, how-
ever, the case is remarkable. The bird was banded October 29, 1936,
shot November 3, 1946—at more than 10 years of age, a veritable
Methuselah among the current crops of ducks.
Of 1,284 ducks banded at Mill lake by CCC boys working for the
National Parks Service, 237 have yielded up their bands at points
between Hudson Bay, Texas, Florida and Maryland. More than half
the returns came in the same year the banding took place. The Erie
marsh recovery is the last since 1945, but game men won't yet say
it is the last to be expected.
Michigan's pheasant stock will get a $12,000 shot in the arm
when 3,800 birds from four Wisconsin commercial hatcheries are
added to the southern Michigan bird population in September.
Bought by the conservation department on bids in the open market,
the birds averaged $3.16 apiece, with $2.75 for a limited number the
lowest bid submitted. At least half the pheasants supplied must be
cock birds.
Ground water levels in the Au Sable, Muskegon and Manistee
river drainages continued above -the 10 -year average through July,
indicating favorable water levels in northern Michigvan's spring fed
lakes for the remainder of the summer season.
More genteel names for two of Michigan's many lakes became
official with the approval of the changes by the U. S. Department
of Interior's board on geographic names. Clare county's Snot lake
henceforth will be known as Bluff lake, and St. Joseph county's
Crotch lake is no, wOmena lake. The latter change, locally said to
be a restoration to an original labelling, was permitted though
Michigan already had an Omena lake in Leelanau county.
Duck hunters accustomed to hearing talk of a limited duck crop
and a short season have at least one less worry this season: there no
longer are any state regulations on how, when or where to put up
duck blinds.
Conservation commission removal of state duck blind_ regula-
tions leaves hunters still obligated, however, to prevent their camou-
flaged shooting stands from becoming a nuisance or hazard to navi-
gation.

"aims of Kiwanis" and what the
Livonia organization should strive
for during the coming year.
-1 A little of the history of the
formation of the Detroit Number
1 Club was told on how a group
of Detroit business men were
meeting for lunch once a week.
These men finally decided to take
an additional step, joining Ki-
wanis.
Members of the Farmington
and Detroit Clubs were present
at the meeting.
Woman's Club Luncheon
Proves Very Successful
Forty-six women attended the
very successful luncheon, given
by the Equal Rights Committee
of the Livonia Township Woman's
Club, at the home of Mrs. Max
Bowen Friday noon.
Anita Pollitzer, National Wom-
en's Party Chairman, was guest
speaker and stressed the point,
"Women are considered persons."
Mrs. Pollitzer also told of the
Party's organization in 1913, some
of its accomplishments, their suf-
frage program and the challenge
that the future holds.
Mrs. Lola Lathers; former State
Secretary also attended the
luncheon. Included on the pro-
gram was a discussion of the plan
to organize a National Women's
Party in Livonia Township,
which the Woman's Club hopes
to do in the immediate future.
The first television transmis-
sion over wire circuit, from Wash-
ington to New York City, and by
radio from Whippany, N. Y., to
New York City, was demonstrat-
ed in 1927.

DAILY DELIVERY OF
College Bulletins
Available Through
Traveling Library
The bulletins of over 200 uni-
versities and colleges are now
available through the Wayne
County Library branches, accord-
ing to an announcement made
this week by Walter H. Kaiser,
county librarian. "Complete sets
of these catalogs are available at
Lincoln Park and at Wayne; at
other branches of our library
system any of them will be ob-
tained on request," Kaiser -said.
Persons desiring to inspect a large
number of bulletins are asked,
however, to do so at either Lin-
coln Park or Wayne.
This is the first adequate col-
lection of current univehsity and
college catalogs that the library
has had in several years. Publi-
cation of the catalogs was limited
during the war period and libra-
ries were unable to have copies
even from some of the largest
institutions. Miss Katherine Ash-
ley, branch librarian of the Tra-
veling Library said, "We are glad
that once again we can give this
service to students and parents
who wish to compare the courses
offered at the many schools. In
this collection almost every insti-
tution of higher learning in Mich-
igan is represented and many of
the catalogs are from other states. -
Business colleges are included."
In Manhattan, Judge Owen
Bohan came back from vacation,
in three hours handed down 17
suspended sentences, sent 22 de-
fendants to jail, went away to rest.
In Ontario, Calif., Dentist Willis
Walton wrongly concluded that
his anesthetic had killed a pa-
tient, collapsed with a heart at-
tack, died.
Picnic and camping season is
the time to, be especially careful
when building and extinguishing
camp fires, MSC foresters point
out.
The showing of religious films
in VA hospitals in Ohio, Michigan
and Kentucky is a helpful adjunct
to chaplaincy work among hos-
pitalized veterans.

Mr. Phillips' establishment will
include a restaurant, patent medi-

floor for dancing every night and
an orchestra Saturday nights. For
the opening night, two orchestras
have been secured for the festivi-

The building has been refinish-
ed, attractively furnished and is
now in the final stages of getting
organized. The management in-
vites you to stop in and pay them
a visit.
Nick names in the Navy are
common, but rarely is an Admiral
k-nown chiefly by such a name.
Rear Admiral Joseph James
Clark, however, was asked once
by the Secretary of the Navy, at

tials were, as he knew him only
as "Jocko" Clark.
