During the hunt several deer milled a- round Mrs. Fenstermaker in wooded territory. A man who was unaware of the presence shot at one of the deer. Iis bullet struck the woman in the right leg. Quick assistance by the shooter and hospital at- tention quite possibly saved the victim's life. Even so it was nec- essary to amputate the wound- ed leg above the knee, Medical and hospital expens- es were burdensome to the Fen- stermaker family. In view of the circumstances the Pine Creek Sportsmen's Club of War- woman's|19 erous in her attitude about the unfortunate incident. Early this month it was re- ported contributions to the aid fund totaled over $400. Champ Crow Hunter With pride, Game Protector Harold E. Russell says: '‘We have an ardent Perry County crow hunter to whom much credit is due. In 1953 Roscoe Seiler, of Liverpool R. D., killed 1143 crows. From December 15, 53, until February 7, 1954, his gun accounted for 407.” Tail Story About A Ringneck: An upper Berks County game protector named Harry H. Rick- ert belatedly tells this with some reservations: “Last No- vember, a Farm Game Protect- or in my district named Percy Baver was harvesting corn with a mechanical picker when the machine jammed and the con- veyor chain broke. After an in- spection Baver found that the of the shooting took place des- troyed alibis citing “accidental” showed causes. Investigations that many of the persons shot were in open fields or open woodland at times when visi- bility was good. When all is said, the princip- al causes of hunting = casualties are still in the human frailty class—greed for game, lack of firearms knowledge and reck- less handling of sporting guns. (There were no human casual- ties due to bow and arrow hunt- ing in 1953). Unfortunately, there will al- ways be human casualties in the hunting sport. Even so, the high hunting casualty record of 1953 will serve as a sad remind- er that hunters’ urges, and im- pulses under stress, call for em- otional control. The problem is how to bring about this yYe-| straint so that most persons, at | least, will not handle or shoot [HE BULLETIN, Mount Joy, Pa. Thursday, April 8, LOOKS DIFFERENT «+.

In |so doing they hope to find bet- ter methods of prevention. Some casualties incorrectly called “hunting accidents” are not included in this report. Heart failure while hunting is an example. It might claim a victim during a period of over- at work. an auto crash victim on any road trip. A study of the record reveals the needlessness of most of the hunting casualties. Here are a few examples: 5 hunters fatal- and 79 in- jured themselves by gunfire whilehunting. (One of them killed while hunting in close season.) There were no hunter deaths in the gun 1953 bear season, in the deer seasons there were 9. Humans killed in small seasons totaled 14, while 411 were wounded. The hunting of unprotected species, such as ‘crows and foxes, accounted for In 1 person 2 fatals and 2 non-fatals. pursuit of furbearers, was killed, 2 were injured. Dis- couragingly, the number of persons Killed hunting the low- | ly woodchuck was 8, and the number of those wounded was 32. Shotguns of hunters killed 15 persons in the Keystone State last year, wounded 415. Rifles took the lives of 19 persons and {injured 87. Causes of hunter-gun casual- ties include: shot in mistake for game, 11 fatals, 17 non-fa- tals; did not see victim in line of fire, 9 and 195; gun placed in dangerous position, 4 and 56; 2 and 31; using gun as 1 and 2; etc. The localities and conditions percentage main those acted upon proposed to better hunting and fishing conditions. Resolutions passed by the convention convey the wishes of the organized sports- men to the Commonwealth's conservation agencies and law- makers. The evening of the same day the Pennsylvania Outdoor Wri- ters Association gathered for its sent hunting, subjects with the outdoors newspapers and magazines in more acceptable form. etl at MOUNT JOY H.
