Conn Smylhe Picks Canadiens To Win

TORONTO, March 4 - (C?) - Conn Bmythe. managing director of Toronto Maple Leafs. today con- firmed a Montreal report that he rated Montreal Canadians as favorites to win the Stanley Cup.

"They've been practising playoff- type hockey for months." said Smythe whose Leafs won the Stanley Cup for the last two sea- sons. "They've got playoff hockey down to e system and are better at it than any other club in ,the National League." -

Smylhe said that he considered the Canadians had two of the best centres in hockey in Ken Moadell and Elmer Lech. Mosdell's late- season fern-l had meant a lot in keeping the Canadians in third position.

"'I‘heir defence is the right type for playoff and they are playing sound hockey. Bill Durnan has re- gained Ilis confidence in goal (last Wednesday night he shut out the Leafs 2-0 here) and all down the line the Canadians have an edge over any other team in the race for the Stanley Cup."

The present sitting of the Pio- vinclal Legislature sees the Game Act up for revision. If the recom- mendation of the Game Associat- ion is acceded to the cioelfll 01 this Session will see foxes without any protection and an open sea.- _son on them the year ‘round- Buch legislaion may have a mo!!! detrimental effect on our ullllml game then on the ‘foxes. O

At the piesent time there is irl effect an open season on foxes throughout the year with the ex- ception that it ls not legal to hunt them with hounds except 1N1“ November 1st till January 81st. I wonder whet the reaction of farm- ers will be if this restriction ls removed and hound owners and their dogs are at liberlty to roam at will over the ccuntfysld! "hi?" furred and feathered wildlife are rearing their young and sheep are inmbing in the pasture fields-

If the suggested amendment to The Game Act becomes law this session one may rest assured that this coming April and May will‘ see city hound owners out with thelr hounds every holiday and solne days that are not holidays.

idiom Bird Seasons Discussed a By Game Assl'n.

Recommendations to be handed in to the Department of Agricult- ure as to the seasons on migratory birds in this Province for 1949 were passed at the quarterly meeting of the Fish and Game Association last night. The meet- ing wes well attended and was

president.

In the matter of ducks it wee agreed that tba season opeas on October 1st for as long a period thereafter as will be allowed with the bag limit of seven a day be- ing set and a season limit of 100.

The season on geese was recons- mended as being frmi Oct. 20th ' Dec. 00h. A recosmsendation hsvim the Brant season coincide with that of the season on geese was also passed with the altern- ative that felling that the open season be set the month of Ne- venher.

A motion that an open season on Plover be reconmendod as es- istinl from Al-lklist 15th to 59D- telnber l-st wee defeated 18 to ‘l.

.In s. discussion on upland gains it was moved that the open sea- son on Hungarian partridge open so~ as to coincide with the open- ing of the duck season, but an amendment to the motion passed setting the opening of the season at Oct. 1. The length of the sea- son and the bag limit will be dis- cussed at the June quarterly meeting. '

Mr. Bpurgeon Jenkins, game warden. celled the attention of the meeting to complaints being received from variom sbctions of the Province of the hunting of min-k by ‘logs, and s. motion was passed recommending that this practice be prohibited in the fut- 111C.

Correspondence Road

Previous to the passing of the reoommen’ ions, correspondence was read from groups of sports- men throughout the Province ex- pressing their opinions on the opening of the duck season and it was the popular opinion that the season should open on Oct. 1st. an opinion which the meeting strongly upheld. The matter of the duck and Hungarian partridge 591150113 coinciding also met with very favorable response.

In the matter of the coining fishing season a resolution was also passed asking that the trout season open for this year only on April 15th which is one day in advance of the usual opening date of Alprii 16th. _

Correspondence was also read from Mr. George F. Bovyer, Do- minion wildlife management offic- er. Mr. Bovyer was answering queries from the Association as to his opinion on the opening. and length of the various seasons. l-‘fe suggested in his letter that e stag- gered season might be recom- mended for ducks giving as pos- sible dates Oct. 1 to 15 and Now 1 to 90th; he looked favofably upon the suggested seasons for geese and brant but was extremely doubtful if the Association would be successful in their request for a two week season on black-bel- lied plover.

Generous Donation

Iifr. l". A. Stewart Jones, speak- ing for Mr. Richard Found, vice president of the Association for Prince County, told the meeting of a S100 donation from Mr. Ernst Von Lengerke of New York City to go towards feeding upland birds during the winter seasons. The thanks of the meeting will be ex- tended to Mr. Von Lengerke for his thoughtful action.

It will be remembered that this same party sent dowli between two and three hundred ohukker part- ridge to Mr. Found over a year ego: when many of the birds died in transit w. Von Icngcrke sent down a shipment of eggs which were hatched at the Experimental Farm and then brooded by Mr. George Bowness of Bummenide until ready for release. Reports state the birds to be in a healthy condition.

The thanks of ‘the meeting were also extended to Mr. Bowness for his splendid work and co-operetion in the care of these birds, birds that will add much to the game life of the Province.

Atnpreclation was also extended to Commander Paul Bower of. the United states for his generous of- fer nf»$100 to thejssocistlon. llIO to go to the feeding of game. This additional offer came after Cmdr. Bower had previously do- nated a like sum to the Associa- tion for the same ,. ,, e. Omdr. Bower was one of the judges at the Field Trials held here in the fail of 1047.
