Among the first matters to be dis- cussed will probably be the plans of New Glasgow and llalifax. Last year New Glasgow strong y consid- ered the possibibty of entering the M..Vl.H.L. but relinguished iliose plans following the July meeting in Charlottetown. lialifax has indic- ated that it will ask for a time extension to get set for next season. If such is the case not as much may be accomplished at todayls meeting as was hoped a month ago. 0 O The number of games in the schedule will come in for consider- ation and it is likely that a. final decision will be made on the mat- ter. At the New Glasgow meeting on July 6th the Islanders repre- sentatives expressed their favor of having at least two home games a week while the other clubs asked for a 70 game schedule. Also to I)! discussed will be a player pool for the play-offs, a cut off the players salaries to hinder "jumping" from one club to another and a possible lay-off during the holiday season. 9 , Ii El(l'I.'

Local Golfers The flute like bugle of the curlew and the lonesome note of the black-bellied plover remind us that August is here and before we know it golden stubble will reflect the autumn sun and the hardwood hillsides will be a riot of colour. The seasonal flight of hudsonian curlew and other specie of shore birds is now underway. 0 me the call of the plover and curlew holds a lost, lonely note that blends with the silent, brooding dunes as an August day draws to ia. close and night shadows draw a veil over the valleys. Even the murmur of the ever restless sea. has a hushed. setting. when I watch wheeling, darting flocks of plover circle pasture fields or hay stubble, their under wing" coverts gleaming like marble in the sun. my mind reverts back to the old days when plover were legal game. I remember days when the crickets sang in the August heat and a brother, now residing in Calgary, and I lay back in the cool shade of a. blind built in the crook of a 'worm' fence with a lunch basket filled to the top with enough cold chicken and other grub to last a. week. 0 A score or more of life-like de- coys stood guard out in front. Gen- erally we could hear the distant call of the flock that warned us of the approach of plover but some- times we would be awakened from a doze by the beat of wings and a there would be a wild scramble. the 10 guages would roar with 5. vol- ume that only black .powder would impart and a smoke screen tem- porarily blotted out one's immedi- ate surroundings. 5 A lot depended on how the plov- er decoyed as to how many were picked up after the shot. Some- times the flock would swing sever- al times before winnowlng in over the stool' but on other occasions they'd dip in over the 'rig' with the throttle wide open like something Jet propelled. Plover shooting un- der such circumstances was hunt- ing de-luxe. There were no rising or falling tides to watch and decoys to shift; no mosquitoes to make llfemiserable. One could hunt and live the Life of Riley at the same time. Methinks those days are gone forever. The introduction of Hungarian partridge and Ring-necked pheas- ants has done a lot to make amends for past hunting pleasures the Mmmme Electric W” -we have had to forego Its a cert- ainty that unless protection. in the form of an absolute close season, had not been afforded our shore birds. particularly curlew, plover and yellow-legs, would now be on the verge of extinction. They couldn't stand up to the hunting pressure in the old days with its minimum of hunters and their muzzie loaders and breach loaders with their black powder sheila. Even the method of transportation in those days. old dobbin and the buckboard, was a in favor pf the game. I In 1929 when I commenced act- ive game protection work curlew were down to a very low ebb. The only flight of any consequence was a flock of D. few hundred birds frequenting the curlew Barre s at Black Bush and Big Pond on the north shore of eastern Kings To- To Compete In Maritime Tourney A large umber of local golfers. will leave today and tomorrow to compete in the Maritime Amateur Tournament which is being staged in Dartmouth early next week. with them will be Cecil Dowling, fhe Maritime Professional Champ- on.
