MIGRATORY BIS
UNDER PROTECTION
Killing Is Absolutely Prohibited
During Spring in Any Part
of Country
Warnings are again being sent out
from Washington, D. C., regarding
violations of the Federal migratory
bird law. In a-recent letter from the
national bureau at Washington is the
following information:
"Under the provisions of this law
no waterfowl can be shot in the
northern or breeding zone after Jan
uary 15. except in New Jersey, where
the season extends to February 1. In
most of the southern or wintering
zone the season closes Febraury 1, but
extends to February 15 in Florida,
Georgia and South Carolina. These
regulations were proclaimed on Octo
zer 1, 1914. Xo change has since
been made in them, and no change
is likely to be made until the consti
tutionality of the law has been passed
on by the United States Supreme
Court. As a matter of fact, the law
: provides that all changes in the regu
lations must be considered for a pe
riod of ninety days, and then must
I be approved and signed by the Presi-
I dent before they become effective. It
j is thus evident that there is no possi
| bility that the prohibition of Spring
| shooting will be in any way modified
I this year.
"The officials of this department
| who are intrusted with the enforee-i
ment of the law are anxious that
these facts be impressed upon the
people because it is the intention to
investigate carefully all reports of
violations made to the department's
inspectors and wardens and to prose
cute all such violations in the Fed
eral courts. In this connection it is
pointed out that prosecutions may be
instituted at any time within three
years of the offense."

Dance in Honor of Harrisburg

tackle the High School five and to
morrow night will play the Dickinson

I tin of Williamsport says:
"To-morrow night the basketball
teams of the Williamsport High
School and Harrisburg Tech will
meet In the local High School gym
nasium, in what promises to be a
fight to the finish. Many spectacular
thrills are to be anticipated in this
game, when the big, powerful Beck
tries to stop Earnest, the small and
'quick as lightning' forward of the
Cherry and White quintet.
"High School and Tech have both
been practicing every day this week.
Kach team will present the strongest
I line-up, in the best of condition, in
! their desire to win this game, which
is very important on both schedules.
Tech has always been one of the
greatest rivals of the Cherry and
White, in all branches of athletics.
Since the tie score football game last
season their rivalry has greatly in r
creased, and now each team is de
termined to win and show superiority
in basketball. Tech has played quite
a few more games than School,
and has a very creditable record, win
ning as many games on foreign floors
as it has on its own. High School
has not been defeated on the horrte
floor this season, and will make a
brave attempt to kep the record un
marked.
"Otto Turner, the well-known bas
ketball official, will referee the game,
which will be called at 8.15. The
dances, which are held after the
games, are largely attended and ore
enjoyed by everybody. The Cherry
and White orchestra will furnish
music for the dance after to-morrow
night's game."
