Drama Mounts Steadily

The drama mounted steadily

throiighout the bright, summery af- ternoon with Erskine firing his blazing fast ball and sharp curve past the Yank hitters in a clutch duel with Vic Raschl. 1 From the'moment that Erskine shot a third strike past lead-off man Gil McDouguld in the first inning, it was obvious he was a tar different pitcher from the wild, shaky l1'.1l'l who flopped so badly on upeniiig day.

October. the month of the Hun- teris Moon, crimson maples and golden stubble; the whisper of wings in the dawning and covey's of brown birds against a blue sky is with us once more. October Is my favourite month. It conjure up memories of frost whitened stub- ble and the pulse stirring music of ' geese; of sun dappled wood roads and the twutt twutt of Ruffed grouse and the familiar setup. of snipe zlg-sagging. from alder covers. Yes. its the outdoors- mnn's month.

The ”th of the month will see thousands of hunters afield in quest of game. some are of two minds whether to rig out for ducks or geese or tiy ii combination of both. Once the morning flight of ducks peters out there are Huns to walk up or the elusive pheasant to out- wit. Prospects are good for a sue- ccssful shoot on ducks but many 'rafts' of blocks have foregathered on the salt flats. When the tide rises they'll probably seek change of fare on inland rivers, lakes and ponds. Methinks the birds are din- ing on choice fare on the tidal flats. It could be the small black seeds that go hand in hand with the eel grass beds.

. .

I remember in the days before the eel grass died (1932-.'l3i 1 shot, black ducks that came in from the salt water bays and estuaries for fresh water whose necks were fill- ed to the throat with small black seeds that would give out B grind- ing sound when the necks of the birds were pressed between thumb and forefinger. I'have never shot ducks that had been dining on this type of food since the eel grass was killed off by an unknown blight. This fall. with the eel grass beds once more firmly established. 1 hope to find the same little black seeds of twenty years ago in their necks.

Hungarian partridge are back in numbers comparable to the late thirties and early forties. A mild winter is the answer. The increase or decrease of Hungarian partridge is not governed by shooting but by weather conditions. A couple of more winters like the last one would see Huns almost as thick as rabbits in Australia before they were inoculated with in germ and practically wiped out.

. . ..

The question whether or not hen pheasants will be legal game this season will be decided next week. Pheasants have increased "to the point where fur sighted sportsmen are beginning to wonder to what ndive-rse extent they will effect our Huns and Ruffed grouse in the near future. Visiting hunters from the States warmed up about al- lowing the pheasants to gain I foothold in the province eight or 10 years ago. It's too late now to do much about it except to try and hold them in check and unless hen birds are made lczial game putting the brakes on John Phea- sanl. is somewhat of a hopeless task.

Hen birds have increased great- ly this past three years and ob- servers contend that quite s. few nests are filled with infertile eggs. Furthermore tlie feeling is pre- valent. thnt. n sizable percentage of runners do not make any effort to distinguish between hen birds or cool: while the conscientious hun- ter goes home Dhesssntless. one sportsman told me that last fall he got into I. lonl. narrow strip of cover and flushed 11 hen birds before 9. single cock broke cover well out of range and sealed off into A dense swsxzp giving the hunter the old familiar raspberry Hen pheasants-will learn fast once hunting pressure is turned on full force and the poacher who has paid no attention to game regula- tions in the past will not have such easy pleklngs this fall... if
