THURSDAY EVENING, THOUSAND ARE OUT FOR DEER IN STATE Estimated Last Night at Carlisle That Fifty- Bucks Have Fallen Before Hunters' Guns in South Moun tain Region in Cumberland County Throughout Central Pennsylvania thousands of hunters are in the val ; leys and mountains in quest of deer. As a result many employes are off duty at industrial plants, railroad shops and yards and in scores of oiiices.

It is estimated that at least 3,000 hunters are in the South Mountain, in Cumberland county, in quest of the game. A Carlisle hunter stated last night that at least 50 deer had been killed in the mountainous re gions adjacent to that town. When he killed a deer during the first hour of the hunting season, W. Grant Raub, a Red Lion contractor and builder, established a record as the champion deer hunter of that place. During the past ,14 years Raub has killed a deer each season except one. The last four deer killed were each brought down dur ing the first hour of the season. The members of the O. K.

At a fire at the camp of the Rou- Zerville Club near Waynesboro, one of the heaviest • losers was Fred Saner, one of the five Pittsburgh members of the club, who had a $l5O overcoat destroyed. These Pittsburgh men also lost their wool bed blankets and costly automobile robes they had spread on their bunks. Jack Trough and Harold Weaver went deer hunting in the vicinity of Huntingdon and their luck was bad. They were returning home in the evening in Weaver's automobile.
