Ev. McNeilPs Kinsmen 1111);’!!! showed all their ability last night when they squared their playoff series against the Reece, forcing a fifth and deciding game that will bs played on Sunday afternoon following the Anchors-Millionaires City League tussle.

I O I I

To close followers of the Kins- men, last night's victory came as no big surprise. They desewed their victory all the way. They took advantage of mistakes by their opponents to take an early lead that the favored Reece crew could not overcome and if L118)’ can display the same brand of baseball in Sunday afternoon's m- counter they should be at least even favorites to retain the crown they captured last year.

In the centre field. Jumping pits have been looked after thorough- ly as have also the other spots for events like the Javelin, discus throw, etc. In fact nothing has been overlooked and Monday's meeting should go a long way in bringing back track and field activities to the popularity it en~ Joyed when the old Island stars were making their marks, not only in the Maritimes but over the length and breadth of the Do- mlnion.

Both games should produce s smart brand of baseball, Although Millionaires are out of the run- ning as liar as a playoff spot is concerned in the City League, they nevertheless are expected to fie'd a strong lineup in an endeavour to chalk up their first victory over the league leaders.

The Junior game is a natural.

dng feathered targets, it nleans the beginning of .a healthful pais- tirue that in some instances is enjoyed for half a century,

I number among my acquaint- ances sportsmen who have forty odd years of shooting tucked un- der their belts and are still good for a few more. Pcrchance they cannot navigate a fence as adroit- ly as some of the younger gener- ation but they still have lots of pep in the old legs and when the COW-y’! 0f brown rockets thunder from the stubble, or grassy swales, the trusty 12 gauge swings in line with the same accuracy as of you.

The season on Hungarian part- ridge has been announced by the Provincial Department of Agric- ulture October 1st till Nov- ember l3th inclusive. I understand the Department concerned acted upon the recommendation o1 a group of gunners. Just who will bear the brunt of s. flood of crit- icisn coming in remains to be seen. With the duck season open- ing on October 9th, many are of the opinion that there was no valid reason why the both dates should not coincide, October 9th till November 11th is considered hy many observers as the dates the Hun season should have been set at.

Everyone knows what happened last year when the Hun season opened on September 29th and the duck season opened on Octo- ber 16th, Every duck that wasn't shot was scared away from the inland ponds and creeks to the sanctuary of the bays and river estuaries. The Huns and ducks live practically next door to each other. one is Just as liable to flush a covey of partridge from the edge of n duck marsh as from a stubble field and it came as no surprise in many when duck hunters had lean pickings on the 1947 opening dale. A black duck is not going to stand for shooting in close proximity of its home marsh. It doesn't necessarily mat- ter that the shots are directed at partridge. They might as well be fired at the ducks.

I I I

Here is a specific incident that happened last year. About a week before the Hungarian partridge season was nnnouzucd, 1 had a chat with a farmer who lives in an area south and east of the Hillsboro river. During the course of our codwersation this farmer remarked: “I hope they don't Irnake the mistake they made last year and open the Hungarian season ahead of the ducks". The following is s brief account of what happened in the farmer's own words: "l have a small tidal creek that flows through my farm, Near its bead is a section of alder clumps and sznnll pot holes bor- dered by tall grass. Every opening day before last year, my bay, who loves to shoot, would pick up any- where from two to n. half dozen black ducks that he walked up out of those pot holes, several 00W?! of Runs also frequented the borders of the creek,
