PAGE FOURTEEN as, seaman, Kingston. Back row, American Legion. left to right: James Wyant, chief High School graduates planning to enroll in college for the fall semester of 1955 may now find it possible to complete their college education without interruption for duty in the Armed Forces if they enroll in one of 52 colleges and uni- versities throughout the United States that have a Naval Reserve Officer Training Unit attached. The Navy is again opening up the Naval Reserve . Officer Training Corps program to young men who .can meet the physical standards. If the prospective college student is planning on ‘attending one of the colleges or universities throughout the U. S. which has an NROTC unit attached, he may apply for enroll- ment as a ‘contract’ student. Al- though: his college expenses will not be paid by the U. S. Government, as is the case for the “Regular” NROTC students, he will be able to become a Reserve Midshipman and remain in a deferred status wuntil completion of his college training, at which time he will be commis- sioned an Ensign, USNR, and will be required to serve on active duty for a period of two years. [Current selective service laws re- quire two years active military service from each eligible male. By enrolling as a “contract” NROTC student, the young man becomes! draft deferred while in college thereby guaranteeing completion of the college course taken. Information on details of the Contract NROTC plan may be ob- tained from any Navy Recruiting Station, High ‘School or Professor of Naval Science activity. Din, Yur Dont’ Kidnap Nature’s Children Rarely does anyone remove a cub bear from its woodland home in Pennsylvania. While the opportuni- ties for such acts are few compared to those of other animals there is another good reason why humans remain at discreet distance when cubs are discovered. The mother stays close to her youngsters, and she is quite ready to deal out rough treatment to anyone who attempts to handle or snatch one of them. Not so with most wild birds and animals found in the Common- wealth. At the approach of man timid deer and rabbits dash away from their young or remain at safe es wild birds of forest and farm re- treat from nests holding eggs or young. - The high percentage of wild ani- mals and birds stolen from the wild eventually die, even when cared for by experienced persons. Only a small perceritage of bird eggs are hatched by amateurs, and few of the chicks so raised survive to maturity. Dur- ing egg laying and early in the set- ting period a wild turkey hen that has been frightened ‘from her nest will readily ‘desert it. In such caseg the noble birds that would have hatched are lost to the hunters. ‘When turned loose, fawn deer reared in captivity. are unable to fend for themselves so well as their brothers and sisters tutored in the ways of the wild by their mothers. “Hand raised” deer are accustomed to humans, dogs and autos. They are often killed when released in * the open, therefore, simply because of misplaced faith. For this reason deer are usually sentenced to a fenced-in life for their own protec- tion. Also, pet bucks, once they have grown antlers, have a habit of turning vicious and attacking un- suspecting persons. One of the most inhumane things a person can do is to take wild birds and animals away from their natural mothers simply because they are cute, or in the mistaken impression they have been abandoned because the mother is not there in the pres- ence of a natural enemy, man, [Chil- dren should be taught it is cruel or unsafe to pick up wildlife or eggs found in field or forest. Desiring to discourage taking wild- life or disturbing nests, the Game Law provides “pocketbook educa- tion” for persons who cannot re- sist the urge to cuddle or keep wild babies. Southeast Reports On Deer Few of the southeastern counties of the state contain what hunters call “real deer territory,” but the white-tails are present in all of them, even in the heavily populated areas. Recent reports by Game Com- mission officers in that corner con- tain these comments on the animals: James A. Brown, Southeast Di- learned from a reliable source that three fawn deer were making regu- lar visits to a farm near Leesport, Berks (County. They were born in the fall of 1954. Still spotted, the fawns are in good: condition. Due to the abundance of feed in this area and the lack of heavy snow last win- ter they were able to survive.” Harry H. Rickert, Berks County: “Deer are increasing along the Blue Mountain. One farmer tells me he counted 47 in his winter wheat field at one time this spring. Two bucks | still have their antlers.” ji Edwin W. Flexer, Bucks County: “Five doe deer were killed by cars in my district during March. Three were carrying twin embryos; the' other two singles—a total of 4 males and 4 females.” Edward J. Fasching, Chester (Coun- ty: “On March 13, I received infor- mation two deer had been killed by an automobile on Route 83, near Valley Forge. I found both to be females. Each carried twin embryos, all four of which were males. Donald L. Croft, Montgomery County: “On March 27 I saw two male deer still carrying racks. One was a six-point and the other an eight-point.” Billy A. Drasher, Schuylkill Coun- ty: “Within a [24-hour period in March, five deer were struck and killed by automobiles in my district. All five were males that had shed their antlers. Though we had a good deer kill in this county last fall we have a-good supply of bucks left.” Schedule Examinations For Prospective Pupils Children who will enter first grade in the Dallas Borough-Kings- ton Township Joint Schools in Sep- tember and who are not currently enrolled for health examinations: Dallas Elementary Building—Mon- day, at 1 p.m. Shavertown Elementary Building —Tuesday at 9 a.m. Trucksville Elementary Building— Wednesday at 1 p.m. Parents may take their children to the building most convenient to them.
