INTEREST INCREASING . . . Members of the Transylvania
Wildlife club have launched a very worthy project, that of providing
food for small game in the county. Rex L. Bird, state biologist,
spoke at the regular meeting of the local organization last week and
vividly outlined the program. With the cooperation of fanners and
others here, the program will restore better living and reproductive
conditions to the land for farm game and other wildlife. All readers
of The Times are urged to carefully read the report of the wildlife
meeting of last Thursday.

VACATIONING . . . The Tornadoes of Brevard college, after set
ting a record by scoring 80 points in one game here on the local hard
wood, are on vacation this week. With the new semester opening the
first of next week, the college cagers again open conference play at
Greenville Monday night. Watch this boy Jack McCauley; he has been
high scorer in nearly every game Brevard has played this year. And
if you remember, he was the star end on the football team last fall.

HIGH MAN .. . Just because he’s way over six feet tall isn’t the
reason for the “High Man” caption. We’re referring to Brevard’s
outstanding bowler, Bill Bridges, who is really bowling them over in
the Western North Carolina ten pin league. His average of 185-29
per game is tops to date, and his high game and set last week were
the best of the eight teams. Don’t be surprised if he doesn’t walk
off with the season’s best average, top line and best game.

TO CRACK DOWN . . . The Law Enforcement division of the North
Carolina Wildlife Resources commission has been instructed to bear
down on violations of laws and regulations governing fresh water fish
ing throughout 1950, according to Clyde P. Patton, executive director.
“Particular attention will be given to violations regarding the use of
illegal devices,” Patton said. “Fresh water game fish may be taken
legally only by hook and line, rod and reel, or by casting. Game fish
taken incidental to the removal of non-game species must be returned
to the water.” The Law Enforcement division has been instructed to
check all inland water fishermen to ascertain that they possess proper
licenses. All fishing licenses expire with the calendar year except
combination hunting and fishing licenses, which are valid from August
1 to July 31. Close attention will be given to insure that prescribed
Size and creel limits are observed.

BASKETBALL MUDDLE . . . This season Southeastern confer
ence and Southern conference basketball is in quite a muddled con
dition. In the past 10 days, Tennessee defeated powerful Kentucky
in the Southeastern loop and then came to Asheville and took a de- .
cisive licking from Wake Forest Deacs who in turn were beaten on
Monday night by an up and coming Tar Heel. The Carolina-Wake
Forest game was a thriller, with the Deacons leading up to the last
couple of minutes, only to succumb, 54-50.

Request Breeding
Stock For Pisgah
Forest Deer Herd
Request has been made by the
Transylvania Wildlife club to the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources
commission for new deer breeding
stock to be brought into Pisgah
National forest game preserve as
a possible means of strengthening
the blood of the deer, and especial
ly to increase the size of deer.
It was pointed out at the meet
ing held here last Thursday night
that the size of kills made in the !
last two years was way below
average for previous years, and
that while heads and antlers were
perfectly formed, sizes of the deer
taken were considerably smaller.
New bucks brought into the for
est, possibly from Wisconsin or
other areas where large deer are
known to exist, would in the minds
of many of the local hunters add
to the bloodstrain and at the same
time, size of the deer here.
When you think of prescrip
tions, think of VARNER’S—Adv.
Wildlife Club Holds Important
Meeting/ Project Is Launched
Members Encouraging The
Growing Of Food For
Small Game
An effort will be made by mem
bers of the Transylvania Wildlife
club to increase small game and
quail in this county, it was decid
ed at the meeting held here last
Thursday night.
Cover and food crops will be
planted by members who own
property in the county, and in ad
dition, landowners are being asked
to cooperate in planting of bicolor
serecia and multiflora rose, both
of which plants grow in hedgings
and are excellent food for small
game.
Rex L. Bird, district biologist,
was speaker at the meeting and ex
plained that the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources commission
through its cooperative farm game
habitat development program, is
distributing free of charge three
perennial plants with the confi
dence that they will fill these re
quirements.
As pointed out by Mr. Bird, the
small game and birds on the farms
have decreased at an alarming
rate during the past few years,
and various means of improving
the farm game supply have been
tried. One of these was restock
ing with pen-raised game, mainly
quail, which proved to be a waste
