Grosbeaks breed and hatch in Western Alberta and the north- western United States and migrate East rather than South. They are not usually seen in the East until mid January.

Conditions that are discernible even to the untrained can, and eventually will be, eliminated by the installation of filter plants by the Coal Companies, and by sewage disposal plants that should be fi- nanced by Federal funds. Laws that would have prevented such conditions from arising were enacted but never enforced. Flaunt- ing of these laws is recorded in the archives of civilization as pro- gress. Kx Ameren ——————— The axiom, “In unity there is strength,” is as true today as when it was phrased centuries ago. How- ever, in this modern age there Is one group so divergent in their ideas of a program of betterment for their favorite sport that unity will never, I'm afraid, be achieved. _ If one were to ask of ten hunters the ever controversial question, “What do you think of a doe season?" different answers. Many Sportsmen's clubs have been started throughout the State. Some have prospered, some have failed. One group that has proved its worth and is a monumental ex- ample of what can be done in unity, is the Lycoming County Sportsmen Club. This camp has a membership of approximately 8000 persons. They are the owners of one of the finest sportman recrea- tion centers in the State, and I submit that a group this size is a power to be considered. What would be accomplished if every person who purchased a fishing or hunting license were to affiliate himself with the Federated Sportsmen of Pennsylvania? Surely no Commission members or office ins, or seekers, could afford to turn thumbs down on them. Few people are aware of what service the Federated Sportsmen render, and to be conservative in estimating their worth, it will suf- fice to say, they are the ones who analyze the bills that come before the Legislature, fighting for the good against the bad. Recently two bills were enacted. The first that most any sportsman would favor was for advancement of the dog training period from August 20, to August 1. Many hunters that I've talked with, feel’ the extra twenty days affords an opportunity to get better acquaint- ed with, and train a new dog, also that a dog that has been chained for many months has a better chance to condition itself for the opening day. Often times more money is spent on dogs than on guns, and this goes on year in and year out. The second bill enacted and made a law legalizes semi-automatic guns. : How many members of the Legis- lative body of this Commonwealth could vote in favor of a law that will enable the “meat hound” to achieve his goal is beyond me. Some one, somehow, pulled many strings or imported professional Washington lobbyists to work for this one. I predict that this law will be stricken from the books before many seasons pass. Yes, in unity there is strength, and I for one would like to see every hunter and fisherman become affiliated with a sportsman’s club and not have to listen to the grumbling and myriad ideas about how to improve hunting and fishing in our State. he would receive ten. | Westmorelan Plays Tomorrow At Tunkhannock Dallas Twp. Redskins And Lehman Scotties Each Have Home Games Two Back Mountain elevens, Dal- las Township and Lehman, have home games while the third, West- moreland, is on the road as a full slate is listed for tomorrow after- noon. Avoca's powerful Green and Gold will travel to Lehman, and Factoryville’s Red Rams will visit Dallas Township Memorial Field. Westmoreland will ‘play the Tigers at Tunkhannock. Dallas Township Dallas Township should chalk up its first victory of the season against the weak Factoryville eleven. The Redskins with the potential of a wining team have not been able to hit their stride so far. This may be the game to start the Red and White on the warpath. A well rounded backfield and a strong line give the Redskins a tough-to- handle outfit that needs only one spark to set it off. If coach Bob Thomas can find it he will field a rough squad for the future op- ponents. Lehman Lehman, on the other hand, in ‘the throes of a disastrous season can expect little aid from Avoca’s topnotch eleven. Beset by injuries and just plain lack of manpower the Scotties have done a wonderful job this season after the loss of almost the entire varsity through graduation. The Scotties have won one and lost two games this year, while Avoca has three victories to its credit with only one narrow loss to Wilkes-Barre Township mar- ring a clean slate. Westmoreland Westmoreland should get back on the victory trail against Tunk- hannock. The Tigers although weaker than in previous years still have a tough outfit but Westmore- land appears, to have the top team in the area and should tame the Tigers with ease. This game will find Westmoreland eager to prove its mettle after last week’s ironic loss to Forty Fort, -_ YOU KNOW ME (Continued from Page Two) BB York. We know New Yrok City and Brooklyn, but we always get lost on the boulevards of Long Is- land and that is where this baby that never cries lives. Our eldest daughter agreed to lead us to the Tri-Borough Bridge into Manhattan in her car. We fol- lowed her through streams of water four inches deep. Cars to the right of us, cars to the left of us, cars in front and cars behind us, four lanes of them all being driven as though the drivers had to reach Manhattan before the bridge fell down. Just fifty feet in front of the terminal toll gate our daughter waved us on. We pulled up in front of her to learn that she was out of gas. There we were with all the cars in the world blowing horns. In all that din, in the worst part of a cloudburst, we had to wave cars around us to clear the second lane so we could back up and get behind our daughter's car to push her off the bridge. We made it just two seconds before the police wrecking car arrived. What that cop at the toll gate said to us we wouldn't even mention to Chief Swanson. We. got home at last and in due time received a letter from the mother of this baby that never cries to learn that this baby hasn’t cried since. We've a good mind to go back and tell that cop something.

Forty Fort left the field at the end of the tilt victor by a 13-7 score which but for a few momentary lapses might have been an overwhelming victory for Westmoreland. Dallas Township fought hard against a tough Wilkes-Barre Township team and held them even most of the game before bowing by a 19-7 score. Lehman met Tunkhannock on Friday but it didn’t make a great deal of difference as the Scotties were beaten by the Tunks 20-7. Westmoreland-Forty Fort A much heralded Forty Fort squad came up against Westmore- land with visions of an easy vic- tory but these illusions were quick- ly shattered as the orange and black led by all round backfield ace Jack Richards pushed the Fly- ers from one end of the field to the other. A fumble picked up by ansalert Flyer secondary was converted in- to a touchdown early in the first period. Westmoreland then struck back and scored on a sensational catch by end Bill Fine on a Rich- ards aerial. The pass climaxed a drive featur- ing the passing of Richards and a powerful ground attack directed by Ed Carey aided by Jim Dolhon and Richards. Forty Fort again went into the lead in the second period intercepting a Westmoreland pass and going all the way for the score. The Flyers missed the extra point and went back on the offensive. The half ended with Westmore- land on the Forty Fort four-yard line with a first down. The third quarter found Forty Fort thoroughly aroused and only alert and tough defensive work held the Flyers off. The last quar- ter found Westmoreland driving desperately to tie the score but the game ended with the orange and black again only a few yards away from the scoring zone. Outstanding defensive player on the field was center Glenn Carey, while the top performer for either side was dynamic Jack Richards who played top notch ball from start to finish. Redskins-W.-B. Township Wilkes-Barre Township was mo- mentarily stumped by the Dallas Township eleven but soon asserted itself to garner a two touchdown victory. Wingback Bob Bellas powered the lone Redskin touch- down drive with fleet halfback Roy Tryon keeping the Maroon and Grey of Wilkes-Barre Township grabbing at air most of the time. Superior manpower soon made itself evident and the Redskins were little match for the larger visitors. Tryon turned in some long jaunts but the Redskins could not click for the yardage when they needed it the most—inside the WB Township thirty-yard line. Dallas Township faced an accurate bar- rage of passes thrown by Leo Dwojeski. Fido, a dog’s name is taken from the Latin fidus meaning faithful.

AY, HILLSIDE—PHONE 311 7 THE POST, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 1951 PAGE SEVEN Westmoreland Juniors Active In Club Work Members of the Junior Class at Westmoreland School are taking an active part in club work, those extra-curricular organiza- tions which enable a student to develop skills and interests not covered by the formal course of study. Ray Harleman says that mem- bers of the Fishing Club will make their own artificial flies, plugs, and will learn to construct sectional bamboo fishing poles. Ray has fished for trout and bass in all local streams and lakes. Kenneth Inmén says that the club hopes to practice fly and plug casting. Kenneth caught a 6 and one-half pound bass, 24 inches in length, at North Lake last year. He had the fish mounted to show the Fishing Club that one member earned his rights and is entitled to advanced standing. The Dramatics Club, says Gail has sent for books on dramatics and plans to try out the lighter type of play first and more difficult productions later. William Dettmore says that he is interested in one-act plays that have some humor in them. He hopes that the club can provide one-act plays for the high school assemblies.
