Hunting Pivoted around three lakes, one in the mountains and two near the coast, hunting in North Car olina this autumn is featuring big game. Wild boar, bear, and deer are quarry sought by hunters based around Lake Santeetlah, in the Great Smoky Mountain country of Western North Carolina. Deer and black bear are the prizes for huntere around and near Lake Waccamaw in southeastern North Carolina. The big game season opens today, October 15, and ex tends until January 1. Waterfowl are the specialty of the region surrounding Lake Mat- tamuskeet and extending north ward to the Virginia line to in clude Currituck Sound, probably the most famous duck shooting area along the Atlantic Flyway. Mattamuskeet, a 30,000 acre lake, is a name synonymous with Can ada goose shooting, and in the area good deer, bear and quail hunting is also found. The Water- fowl season opens November 10 and lasts until January 8. Foxes are favorite game in Piedmont and Coastal North Car olina, and they are hunted with out bag limit throughout the game season. Good Season Expected Wildlife authorities report that the breeding season for native game has been excellent, and that this should be a good hunting season. A better supply of feed for waterfowl was in evidence last year, and has improved in 1954, giving rise to predictions of more ducks and geese than ever before. Waterfowl began arriving in late September, heading for their principal concentrations in Currituck Sound and the Lake Mattamuskeet area, and they are expected to be counted in hun dreds of thousands in November. The ^plit dove season, opehing September 1, and alsd the season for rail and gallinule beginning on the same date, launched the 1954 hunting season in North Car olina, where game of some varie ty is found in all of its 100 coun ties. Quail and rabbit season opens Thanksgiving (November 25) and extends until January 31. Seasons, bag limits and other rules on game shot in Moore County were listed in last week’s Pilot. But it is the big game and waterfowl that makes headlines A request to the Department of 'Conservation and Development, Raleigh, N. C., will bring the booklet “Hunting and Fishing” and information about seasons, bags, etc. Village Chapel To >pen; Howertons To Direct Music The Pinehurst Village Chapel will open its season Sunday with the service of Holy Communion at 9 a. m. and the regular service cf morning worship ait 11. Both services will be conducted by the Rev. Dr. Adam Weir Craig, minis ter of the Chapel. Dr. Craig’s sub ject at the 11 o’clock service will be “John, The Beloved Disciple,” one in a series of sermons enti- .... tied, “The Men Whom jggus / ^wharrie area, in Mont Boar Most Elusive Most elusive of North Carolina big game is the Russian wild boar, whose habitat is the Santeetlah country. The creatures were im ported from Europe in 1910 and have increased so that last year the North Carolina legislature of ficially declared them a game animal and set a season for hunt ing them. Wild boar hunts are based in Robbinsville, Fontana Village, Tapoco, and other places. One lodge, the Blue Boar near Robbinsville, specializes in boar hunts. It is run by Fred Bruck- mann, a native Cincinnatian who first visited North Carolina to hunt big game and returned to make his home in its ruggedest western mountain country. Rate? at first class places like this run about $10 a day for board and room with $10 a day guide fee. Deer and bear hunts are con ducted in Western North Caro lina, both in private lands and in national forests. This is the coun try of the famous Plott hounds, the finest bear dogs, and mem bers of the Plott family maintain packs and hunt bear in the vicin ity of Waynesville. Hotels and game protectors in all counties can supply information about guides and organized hunts where available. Popular Hunts Popularity of the managed boar-bear hunts in cooperative hunting preserves of the North Carolina National Forests and the State Wildlife Commission was attested by the fact that 65 hunt ers applied for the privilege of forming and conducting parties. These included famous big game hunters from the Great Smokies to the Blue Ridge near Mt. Mitch ell, haunt of the legendary Wilson bear-hunting family. These hunts are scheduled in 10 game man agement areas between October 15 and November 13. A maximum of 25 hunters is assigned to a hunt, which were assigned at a drawing held in the courthouse at Waynesville on September 22. As a rule, unsuccessful applicants join up with hunts drawn by luckj’ entrants. Still hunts in the Wildlife Man agement Areas begin November 15 for two six-day periods ending Nov. 27. For the first time, these are on a non-reservation, first come, first licensed basis. Daily area permits are $2.50. Three-day wilderness permits are $7.50. Frank Barick, chief of the Wildlife Commission’s Game Di vision, said that quota for each refuge has been increased, and that everyone should be able to get in some hunting. He does not believe that the first day is nec essarily the best day for hunting, and has records to prove that sec ond and third day’s results exceed the, season’s opener—but the big gest congestion is normally on the first day. Montgomery County Area Safety factors have not been sacrificed in increasing quotas, Barick said, as the 70 to 80 acres per hunter is being preserved, but the increase was made pos sible by the sizeable increase in the number of deer. In 1953, the Wildlife Commission opened only one of the Pisgah Forest areas to hunting at a time. This year they are both open simultaneously. Mattamuskeet Lodge, on the lake, address New Holland, N. C., hous es the U. S. Fish & Wildlife Ref uge supervisor’s office. Near Mat- 'tamuskefet at Belhaven is the largest purveyor of “package hunting” in the State — Axson Smith, former Chicago hotel man now operates River Forest Manor. Hunters come from all over the United States to hunt geese, duck, deer, bear and quail in the Matta muskeet region, where facilities and guides have increased sharp ly in recent years. The most licensed guides are in Currituck County—15(j of them by actual count. And Currituck is the most fabulous waterfowl shooting area. There are some private lodges and blinds, but most of the hunting is done with individual guides, a good many of whom also provide board and lodging in their homes. The next largest number of li censed guides is in Hyde-County, in which Mattamuskeet is situa ted. Here there are 136. In neigh boring Dare County, there are 29 licensed guides, both along the Outer Banks in areas not inclu ded in the new Seashore National Recreation Area, and across the sounds on the Dare mainland, where the West Virginia Pulp & Paper Company issue daily per mits for hunting deer and bear in portions of its vast timber hold ings.

On the 10 hunting areas are 23 check points, where from 25 to 300 hunters may obtain daily per mits for big game. The maximum for, these points is 3,505. Since there are 12 hunting days in the two weeks opened for shooting, it is apparent that, weather permit ting, there will be 42,060 big game still hunting days available on these managed areas. A lot of hunting! The areas are also opened, on specified dates, between October 1 and January 31, for squirrel, grouse, rabbit, raccoon, and op- possum.

Top Deer Spots Deer hunting is the specialty at Lake Waccamaw, where sum mer resort hotels become hunt ing lodges in autumn and winter. Deer hunting fans out for miles around this lake, and is particu larly good in Hoke County, ad joining Fort Bragg, where there are five licensed guides, and southwest to the coast in Bruns wick County. Some large bears have been killed in this area, the largest being taken by a^ group that brought down Plott hounds with them from Western North Carolina. Mattamuskeet is a government refuge with 24 blinds, but bor dering the lake are hundreds of field blinds from which more birds are shot than on the lake. Alice J.
