Many Wild Turkeys Killed in Coun- ty Reports Indicate. If reports are to be relied upon more wild turkeys have been bagged by hunters in Centre county this year ! than in any season in the past ten years. And a still more encouraging fact is that they have been found in almost every mountainous section, ev- idence that the birds are not only in- creasing in numbers but are spreading out and with proper care on the part of hunters should become very plenti- ful within a few years. But if all the hunters are as merciless on the birds as a report reaching this office from Huston township, it will only be : question of a few seasons until the ' turkey crop will be obliterated. Ac- cording to the report some of the residents of that locality had kept pretty close tab on a flock of four- teen turkeys and on the opening day ! a large party of hunters went after the birds with the result that they are alleged to have bagged twelve ot the fourteen. The turkeys were prac- tically surrounded and had small chance of escaping. : “In addition to turkeys hunters hate. been fairly successful in bagging oth- | er kinds of small game, the kill of pheasants this year exceeding that of last. In this connection it might be said that the season will close for all How Brooks-Doll Post will Observe Armistice Day, Nine years ago today the armistice was declared which put an end to the great world war, and “lest we forget” the anniversary will be duly celebrat- ed today by the Brooks-Doll post of ! the American Legion.

In the mud and grime of Hughes field, the result of Saturday morning’s snow-fall, Bellefonte and Tyrone High school football players fought to a scoreless tie on Saturday afternoon, but owing to the condition of the field ; it was not a fair test of the relative strength’ of either team. ~~ = i ' Bellefonte ‘had the edge on Tyrone during most of the game, as is evi-: denced by the fact that the locals made eleven first downs to seven for Tyrone. On two occasions Bellefonte had the ball within three yards of the Tyrone goal line, only to lose it on fumbles. Twice Tyrone was also within striking - distance but both times were prevented from scoring by the referee’s whistle, once at the end . of the first half and again at the end of the game, Neither team was able to do much in the air, owing to the wet and slip- pery ball. Bellefonte tried only two forward passes and neither one was successful, while Tyrone had no bet- ter success. Bellefonte made more headway through ' the Tyrone line than the latter was able to accomplish through the Bellefonte defense, but Bellefonte also did more fumbling than Tyrone. The longest run of the day was made by Confer, around Ty- rone’s right end, about twenty yards. Capt. Priest was Tyrone's best ground gainer. Considering the weather and condition’ of the field all the players did remarkably well. | This afternoon, at 2:30 ’clock, Belle- fonte will play Lewistown on Hughes field, and as it will be mostly a holi- day every football fan should go out and cheer for the Bellefonte team. The Bellefonte Academy lost to the Naval Academy Freshman, on Satur- day, by the score of 12 to 7, and State College won from George Washington | 13 to 7. The small score is accounted for by the fact that the greater part ; of the game was played by State’s second string men. r— i ——————— Borough Manager Seibert Run Down by Auto. Borough manager J. D. Seibert had a narrow escape from serious injury, last Friday evening, when he was hit | and knocked down by an automobile driven by Richard Coder.

Caum, telephone T. This is the first edition of the new metropolitan, three column 97x11” directory.

The new directory has three columns which permits approximately { 250 listings and covers telephone sub- scribers in the following counties: Centre, Sullivan, Mountour, Unton, Snyder, Northumberland, Clinton, Columbia and Lycoming. It is believed that the change will prove a popular one and result in an added convenience to telephone users.

The new three column directory ts also indicative of the fact that large metropolitan conditions are found here and must be handled in a met- ropolitan manner in order to be ade- quate. In addition to 168 pages of listings in the white section there is also a yellow or classified section containing various business concerns listed under their regular business classification.
