Less Ducks

- Lansing ~ The annual- midseason. aerial waterfowl census
along the important east and

southeast Michigan marshes shows
total duck numbers down considerably from this time last
year, but marks a sharp increase
in coot numbers.
Conservation game

men. say

250,000 ducks, 27,000 ecoots, 100

geese, and six swans on waters |

of Saginaw Bay, Saginaw valley,
lower Lake Huron, Lake St.
Clair, Lake Erie, and connecting
waters.

Last year, 453,000 duéks, 8300
coots, 78 geese, and three swans
were counted in the'same waters.

The wide margin of difference
between ducks cotinted this fall
and last fall, game workers. believe, was caused by mild weather
extending deep into November.
A large number of ducks apparently were still paddling. about
on more northern waters, reluctant to leave until colder weataer took over.

The aerial census this year ~was
made Nov. 445; last year the
count was /made Oct. 27-29.

Bacxing the game workers~ belief that ducks are still farther
north was an increase of about
25 percent in ducks counted this
year in the Saginaw Bay region
with the large decrease in population noted farther south on
the Lake Erie marshes.

Also a few more ducks and lots
more coots were counted in Saginaw valley this year as compared with last year.

On the more southern. St. Clair
flats. about three-fifths as many
ducks counted there last year

were noted this year.

far as the ~Reporter
mine, Pontiac has everything. If
Centra beats Pontiac, they will
have to work overtime to do so.
Larry Catlin is sidelined with
a broken ankle as a result of a
football injury. Central is appreciably -weakened as a result.

Golcen Gloves
Tourney Just
Around Corner

The Bronze Reporter; has been
advised that this coming session
of the Golden Gloves Tourney is

just around the e~orner. It is
sponsored~ by the. Flint Junior
Chamber of Commerce, and this

year there will be more representation than previous years.
At the present time, applicants
may apply at any of. the centers.
Since the time for the first bouts
is so near, the Reporter advises
those who are interested to act
immediately.

Central Uses Subs
For Victory

In their opening game, which
was anything but thrilling, Central used 13 new faces to defeat
Handy High (Bay. City) 45-33.
The game was played in the new
Freeman School.

One thing which contributed to
this easy Central ~victory was the
fact that Bay City missed 50 out
f (59 shots at the loop. These
misses matched the 50 fouls-calied in the game.

_ Central will make its first bid
for the Valley title-on Dec. 18,,against Pontiac.
