UNTER’S CORNER

The recent spell of winter has cuiised the wlldgeese to begin their southward migration. Tra- rollers crossing the Strait have ohserved large flocks of the big black and white honkers. flying at high titude. mai a n d h‘»llIl(l. Their destination is. no doubt. their wintering ground at Port Joli on Nova Scoiia's south unstern coast-line. Some course will eventually carry on in the Carolina's and the im- inense feeding ground in that oxea. The crusted snow on many tiubble fields may have made the flocks suddenly southward» rnnsclous but persistent reports indicate that rifle fire may have iastened their departure.

Observers have reported per- sistent sniping with a high pow- or rifle at geese in the Pawns! Bay - Irving's Bar area. The rif- 1: is alleged to be a 303 with a arget shooting enthusiast lining pp the sights. An eye witness re-

The rifleman routed them out of this area and the observer lost track of both geese and boat. The rif- lemon apparently feels quite safe for I received a report that life boat was beached and he in- formed a man piling seaweed slat lie was looking for a goose he shot and came down inland.

A disturbing feature about this incident is that the game officer of the RCMP. so I was informed, allied to some folks about this ncldent and the information he received was sero despite the fact that they knew them just as well as I know them. Several are threatening that they‘ are go- ing to ‘spill the works to the proper authorities’ but so far have not put their threat into ef-

after I had mentioned in m y umn about a wild turkey hav- ing been killed by a car on the highway in a specific district two hunders in the area. who were not aware of the release, spent days hunting for the few that were left.

It is evident that game law ob- servance has hit a new low. Sun- day. supposedly a day of rest. is a big hunting day for many. There was a time when hunting on Sunday was a rare occurren- ce but no more. Here is some advice. given without charge, given to the ten percent remn- ant of hunters who are conserva- tion minded and who have grave misgivings over what the future holds for those who enjoy hunt-

bit on hand. He claims that.- canned properly— they are just as tasty as canned chicken. He never got even a glimpse of a rabbit during his stroll. To off- set this incident there are rabbit hunters who insist we have lots of r l

It's our Huns that really pull- ed the hat trick. Covlea showed up during the snow period that were not even suspected.

Souris Hoop

1 By ED CLINTON

;: The 1963-64 basketball season ‘got underway last week with 'boys and girls teams from Soil- rls Regional visiting teams from Morell at Morell Regional High. The visitors came home with two victories under their belts. with the girls game providing the closest competition. The four teams will play the return gam- l es of this exhibition series this .5 coming Saturday evening in

; mcncing at 6.30 p.m. 1' The girls‘ game was a low ' scoring one with the two teams

tween them. of course it's only early in the season. and neither team has had too many practice 59551005 83 yet; The Souris girls 1 are the defending Island cham- ' plans, and on the strength of this first game. they and Morell. if ; they meet in the playoffs. should 1 have themselves quite a series. I Although she didn't score in ny I .1pIo1nlt)s(.) we were told that Roma 1 fstéilf“ ofngllél g0afmeS0lli‘lS was the The Souris boys had I i it t l e trouble with the home team as ly by the score ‘of . teams have had N about the same number of prac- ‘£1068. but. most of the Sou rls !team are also members of the .football team. and. as a result |are in excellent shape. Morell ldoesnt have a team. as yet. : George The Brute" Clhevverie starred for Sourls scoring slight- ver half of his teams points he picked up a total of 24.

Two squads repre- senting the two regional high .schools from the two centers ‘Will meet in Morell early this ,wcek. and possibly later in the E week in Souris. We have no re- lports on the Morell team, but. ,the Souris team will add a few lre- enforcements from the town ;and enter the Island playoffs, possibly in Senior “C”.

We said last week that Sourls would double its number of has- ketball teams'ln Island playoffs this year with four entries. nam- ely. girls Senior ‘'3'’. boys Sen- ‘ "B." and boy's Juniior ‘'3'’. along with the Senior "C" squad. Another two teams may yet be added to that list. Boys a girls teams on the elemen- tary level may also be register- ed. The idea is beinig given some thought, and a decision will he arrived at shortly.

= The two Souris Bowling Lea- igues have come up with some lsurprises. The biggest in t h e ‘men's League is the showing of the Smoke- Eaters as a team. and also the fact that they have four of their players listed in the top ten. Edgar Glenn is perfor- ming as predicted. and practic- ly has high average in the bag. Another surprise came from the strong right arm Jim MacDonald who racked up a 329 string. to pick up high single for the season so far. The Hawks are also doing better than expected . while the reverse era .

such action is necessary. its either that boys... or else. If a game officer questions you about an infraction tell him what you know without pulling any punches.
