He declared that he npplled te the State

DEER HUNTERS TRY
SECOND-DAY LUCK
Wary Animals Seeking Refuge
in Swamps of New Jersey
Near Weymouth
GUNNERS ARE DISAPPOINTED
Bnnial DiivatcS te Kvtnlne Public Ltintr
HiMnmonten, N. J Dec. 27. Tedny,
the second clay of the open season for
deer sheeting, finds mnny new faces in
the swamps nf this section, into which
the deer fled for refuge after the first
day's sheeting, Wednesday laBt week.
The advent of the holiday season,
when many hunters nre able te get off
for nn entire week and remain In the
weeds, gives them, in many instances,
two days' sheeting nt the expense of enp
trip te this section. In addition te this
fact Is the knewledge gained of the
habits of the deer and their prebnble
location, se that when daylight nrrives
en an open hunting day little, time Is
lest in locating probable quarry.
The first dar'a results were far holew
expectations, as the animals proved te
4-
be very wary and quickly made for the
swamps, largely in the Weymouth sec
tion. The fact that the hunting party
of Nunzle Brune, composed of thirteen
hunters, killed only one deer, but saw
twenty-six during the day, most of
them tee far away te hatard shot
without endangering the fellow hunts
men, shows that the animals are un
usually skittish.
Prier te the opening day deer were
frequently seen. On several occasions
motorists even crashed into deer as they
ran across the reads. In one Instance
a deer, blinded by the headlights of an
oncoming car, dashed into the vehicle,
being killed. In another collision the
enr was upset and the passengers spilled
en the highway, but the deer, appar
ently, escaped serious injury.
In addition te the usual New Jersey
big game hunters, crack shots from
Pennsylvania, New Yerk end Delaware
are today trying their luck In the Jer
sey swamps. .Heme of these have been
here for the week pat ethers arrived
yesterday nnd will remain until Jan
uary 8, the next open day nf the season.
New hunting licenses must be secured
before hunters nre legally entitled te
sheet deer or ether game In New Jersey
next year, the present licenses expiring
en Saturday at midnight. Sunday
sheeting is net permitted in this State,
even if the hunter has n license expiring
December 31.
