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.

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.”
