Be Open To Deer Hunting      *inner served at 7:0(> °'clock> to wel"
During 1948 Season J
The Conservation Commission,
meeting at Roscommon Monday, decided to open all of Michigan to deer
hunting this fall, for the first time in
22 years.
Due to the spectacular increase in
deer population in the section of the
state below the Muskegon-Saginaw
Bay line, that area was opened to
hunting for buck deer with buckshot
in shotguns only. The southern section had been closed to deer hunting
in 1926.
The Game Division reported deer
are now present in every -county in
the state, including Wayne. The concentration of southern deer is particularly heavy in Van Buren, Barry,
Clinton," Shiawassee, Saginaw and
Livingston counties, the division^said.
The commission also set the
pheasant season this year as un-
-changed from 1947—October 15 to October.- 26. The bag limit for the season was retained at six birds. Harry
D. Ruhl, department game chief, reported that the pheasant population
was on an upswing but that the trend
had not been established sufficiently
to permit easing of restrictions imposed last year.
The commission set the sharp-
tailed grouse and prairie chicken season in the "Upper Peninsula as October 1 io October 20 except in Keweenaw county' and parts of Houghton, Dickinson, Menominee, Delta
and Chippewa counties, which will be
closed.
The ruffed grouse season for the
Upper Peninsula was set as October
1 to October 20 with bag limits at
• five a day, ten in possession and 25 a
season. The Lower Peninsula ruffed
grouse season was set for October
15 <to November 5 and bag limits at
three a day, six in possession and 15
for the season.
Smatf Game Seasons
While details of pheasant, grouse,
deer and waterfowl hunting seasons
were decided aE the ., jgons^ ovation
commission's August meeting, .most
of the other hunting and trapping
seasons are likely to follow last
year's pattern and the limits prescribed by law and existing commission orders. In emergencies the
commission may reduce existing legal
allowances for these other game)
species, but-field men are reporting
conditions normal and recommending
the customary dates and bag limits.
The sauirrel season, for instance,
will by act and order be October 15-
November 5 in the lower peninsula]
only, with a bag limit of five, possession limit 10, season limit 25, and
black squirrels still protected. Hunt-
era bagged about 534,000 fox squirrels
and 61,000 grays last season, and
populations of both species are believed normal. .
The cottontail rabbit and snowshoe
hare season probably again will be
October 1-March 1 in the upper peninsula, October 15 to January 31 in
northern . lower Michigan and October 'i.-December 31 in southern Mich-
. igan, with the daily bag five, possession limit 10 and season limit 50.' In
1947 the take was 919,000 rabbits and
235,000 hares, and while there has
been little change in cottontail numbers, there are indications of an increase in the number" of snowshbes.
Observers agree tha .raccoons still

fine game. Bauers missed several
golden scoring opportunities by wierd
base running, while Temple played
their best game of the season. Strous

lambasted the VFW 9-4 in nine innings. The Vets tied the game at four
all in their half of the seventh, when
Rilett wild pitched two runs across
the plate, but came back in the ninth
to blast Hendershot for five big runs.

there were eight fewer deaths, a nine
percent increase in injuries and a
six per cent increase in accidents.
These .figures follow the trend in recent months.
About one-third of the fatal accidents involved speeding violations
and one out of six drivers "had been

resulting in deaths were improper
passing, driving on the wrong side of.
