Hunting
continues
By JANE C. BOLGER
Staff Correspondent
The woods are still bright with the
fluorescent orange. flash of deer
hunters in this final week of the 1983
antler season as hundreds of hunt-
ers continue in pursuit of the elusive
four legged prize.
“There don’t seem to be many
deer out there,” said several disap-
pointed local hunters disputing the
Pa. Game Commission’s claim that
there should be a bigger herd this
year because of the mild weather of
last winter.
“All I see are doe,” was another
common complaint followed by spir-
ited protests about how doe licenses
are issued and to whom. ‘“‘Does are
political animals around here,” said
one avid hunter likening the Luz-
erne County doe to the Democratic
donkey and the Republican ele-
phant.
“The season was off to a bad
start,” said another hunter, issuing
one of the few complaints heard
about the freezing rain that wel-
comed hunters at dawn last
Monday. Most hunters who got their
deer claimed they never got wet
and they weren’t cold. Another
factor that the guys and gals who
brought home deer had in common
was a deliberate vagueness about
exactly where they had been hunt-
ing.
Everyone was ‘up in Bradford
County, out to Sweet Valley, up
behind Ricketts Glen, out to the
Lake.” All hunters apparently
belong to a society that protects the
location of their secret hunting
grounds.
One popular local hunting area -
the Lee Brace property at Harveys
Lake was posted and hunting forbid-
den after an unfortunate incident
there the second day of the season.
Sixteen year old Lee Brace Jr. went
out hunting after school on the
family property and shot a 10 point
buck, but the animal was stolen
from him by another hunter.
“The guy wasn’t even displaying
his license. He claimed he had it in
his pocket,” said Lee’s irate grand-
father District Magistrate Leonard
Harvey. ‘That was Lee’ s kill,” he
continued.
Angry family members notified
the Pa. Game Commission of the
incident and requested that a game
warden prevent future hunting on
their land which they had always
allowed previously.
Among the successful local hunt-
ers were: :
17-year-old Michael Culver of
Carverton Road, Trucksville, who
brought down a five-point buck in
Bradford County.
Charles Mahler of Jackson Street,
Dallas, who is telling his buddies at
Natona Mills about the four-pointer
he shot while hunting at Harveys
Lake.
Jody Gross of Duke Isaacs who
brought back a four-pointer from
Sweet Valley.
Mark Kunkle, Kingston Township
manager, who gave his brother a
four-pointer that he shot in Franklin
Township at 10 a.m. Monday.

CLIPBOARD NOTES: Two of my
golfing pals, Bob Rundle Sr. and
Rob Rundle bagged eight-point
bucks on the same day and at the
same time of the morning, 8:30. Big
Bob shot his near |
his home in
Mountaintop,
while Rob got his |
in Sweet Valley.
What’s the odds’
of father and son |
shooting two]
bucks on the]
sameday and at RICHARDS
locations?
Another pal, Bob Clemente,
former Valley West wrestler, got
lost for several hours near Red
Rock. Bob came up empty, but was
a mite concerned when he couldn’t
find his way out the woods. That’s a
tough area to get lost.
The Bowl season kicks off this
Saturday with Air Force going up
against an improved Ole Miss team
in the Independence Bowl. My
choice here is the Falcons. I really
like QB Marty Louthan. He's so
Falcons are something else running
the option, my favorite play. It
should be a close game, but I like
the fly boys, 27-24.

I used to be a big fan of LSU when
Coach Cholly' Mac was running the
show. I never could understand why
LSU fans never gave him the recog-
nition he deserved. He’s the win-
ningest coach in Tiger history.
Jerry Stovall took over for Bo
Rein after he was killed in a plane
accident. Stovall fired all of Rein’s
assistants and left a very negative
taste with the coaching fraternity. I
got real mad at the Tigers since.
Stovall getting the ax couldn’t
happen to a nicer guy. Coach Mac is
one of my All-Time Coaches.
How about them Dawgs? That's
George Curry’s Berwick Bulldogs.
The former Lake-Lehman coach has
done a remarkable job during his
tenure at the down river school. I've
never met a coach who could moti-
vate his players like George can.
He’s become a very sound coach
in drilling his teams from a funda-
mental standpoint. 1 couldn’t be -
more elated for his success. He’s a
cess change him.
I never had more fun than going
out to George’s house in Lehman on
Sundays and reviewing films with
him and former assistant John
Oliver.
