It must be the horses that keep him so well preserved-good horsemen never die. I notice where Bobby Hunter 2.21 is going to town and is expected to be a real good pacer. Hope Don Turner has as good luck with Josedale Clansman 2.09 as he had with Tonymite 2.1051. Earle Eemple got a good price for Dean Gallon, it shows the world that the Islanders know their horses.

To those of us who follow the back country. the hardwood ridges . . . the swamps and elder swaies . . . creek bottoms and cut-overs. particularly in late November and December. one is agreeably sur- prised at the number of grouse found in suitable pockets where food and cover is at hand. There is
for this apparent change in hab- itat. To the columnists way of thinking the most obvious reason is the army of hunters and their dogs who comb the stubble fields and nearby alder swaies in search of 1-Iuns and pheasants approxi- mately a week in advance of the season on Ruffed grouse which opens on October lbth and closes on October 31st. causes the birds to move back. There is also a strong possibility that pheasants are driving them from their nor- mal nesting sites. The cock pheas- ant is half hawk and half game bird in life and all game bird when browned on a platter. O I I
It is my own personal conviction, confirmed by 26 years active game law enforcement work. that the real cause our native grouse are not present in the numbers they should be is not the number shot in the legal open season but the unlawful kill during the winter End early spring.

Linued the search for more victims. A mile farther on the patrol caught up with the poachers. Both were men in their late twenties or early thirties . . . not Juveniles as one might suppose.
one carried a in garage single shotgun. The other held a ruffed grouse in hand. This bird was also shot up badly ith half the meat spoiled. Sonia h nters never learn. No difference how close game hap- pens to be when first sighted they'll blast it whether it be 10 feet dis- tant or 100. Needless to say their hunting ended right there. one was charged with hunting grouse closed season and the other with having ruffed grouse ll'1lRW- fully killed in possession in closed season.. They appeared in Stipen- diary Magistrates Court in George- town and were each fined :25 and costs or 30 days and the shotgun forfeited to the Croivn. They could have bought a lot of meat and fish for approximately 3100. A few plasters like that applied where it hurts most-the pocket book-will cause trigger-happy hunters roam- ing the winter woods to think twice, maybe three times. before lining the sights on an out-of- season ruffed grouse.

This fall a gunner was fined :25 and costs and his shotgun.and shells ordered confiscated for hunt- ing ducks in closed season. Defen- dant pleaded "not guilty" and claimed he was hunting crows. Evidence submitted by the Prose- cution showed that he was hunt- mg in a section that ducks fre- quented and at an hour in the evening when crows would nor- mally have gone to roost. Fresh duck feathers found on defendants premises were also produced in Court. The first alibi that comes
Brooklyn Sells Boih Cox And Roe
BROOKLYN (AP) - Brooklyn Dodgers Tuesday said third-base- man Billy Cox and lefthanded pitcher Preacher Roe to Baltimore of the American League for cash. reported about 855.000.
Both veteran players had to be waived out of the National League before the deal could be com- pleted.
Cox. 35. is one of the best-field- ing third baseman in baseball. He batted .235 in 77 games last sea- son, filling in at both shortstop and second base in addition to third.
Roe, 36-year-old former Dodger fighting ace. had a poor 3-4 record last season. appearing in only 15 games. The slim lefty from Arkan- sas started 10 games and finished only one, compiling a 5.00 earned run average for 63 innings.
in addition to the cash, Brooklyn gets two minor-league players who will go to the Dodgers' Fort Worth farm in the Texas League. Both played with San Antonio in the same league last year. They are John Jancse, a 23-year-old right- handed pitcher who had a 13-4 rec-

It will be a source of con- siderable satisfaction to sportsmen, and all others who are interested in our wildlife, that punishment commesurate to the offence is be- ing meted out to game law of- fenders.

Talk -Over Alomic Weapons
PARIS (CF) -- Western foreign policy chiefs Thursday talked over the question of who should give the word to use atomic weapons in ev-
ent of an attack by the Soviet,
Union.
Foreign Secretary Eden, State Secretary Dulles and Premier Mendes-France tackled the atomic and other problems in a three- hour meeting at the French foreign ministry.
The same question was believed to have been taken up earlier by Eden, Dulles and External Affairs Minister Pearson of Canada. The three conferred a few hours after Eden arrived from London.
Thursday's talks will have a bearing on the decision of the err tire 14-nation North Atlantic Treaty Organization council when it takes up the atomic subject today.
The Associated Press quoted "an authoritative source" as predicting the Big Three would come up with an atomic defence plan which would be approved by the other NATO members. However, this in- formant did not disclose what the
plan was.
