South st. (inr-stionnairr-s will be provided those attending the meeting, so that nil may vote on various matters pertaining to fishing. These n.s!iiir.nairrs will be tabulated and returned to Columbus by Game protector William T. Boden, thereby giving the Ohio conservation and natural resources commission some ideas of the sentiment on various phases of fishing in Summit county. My experience has been that county fishermen for the most part arc op.

nly critical but unwilling to spend an hour or two in voicing their views at an open meeting. Committee hearings have been poorly attended and, as a result, little has been accomplished. Chairman George Davis and other committee officers, while eager to arrive at some constructive program for this county's state-owned lakes, have had their hands tied by public disinterest or perhaps inertia is the word best expressing failure of most fishermen to appear on meeting nights. A great deal more could be accomplished if the men who draft our fishing regulations knew what public sentiment really is. Sure, questionnaires could be mailed to.

every fishing license holder in the county, hut the response probably wouldn't justify the expense involved. A fisherman who refuses to defend his Arguments in person probably wouldn't trouble to return a questionnaire. Some day, however, I phould like to know what aort of catches the average fishermen expects when he planks down 60 cents for an Ohio license. Kent State was handicapped in the final period by penalties, which led directly to Bowling Green's winning touchdown. Line buck and three end runs gave the Falcons a first down on the Kent State 34 and B-G picked up another first down on the 13 when interference was ruled on Wellner's pass.

Wellner then passed to Bordner for the winning marker. The try for the extra point failed when Lowell Sielschott was dropped after taking a lateral from Wellner in kick formation. Bowling Green threatened again early in second quarter. With a first down on the Kent State 28, Marazon pitched a forward to Bordner on the two. On the next play, however, a bad pass from center went over Wellner's head and he recovered on the 24.

The B-G threat was halted when Harry Kuzmenko, Kent guard, intercepted one of Marazon's passes. A Second Report on the Rubber Situation TI RKEYFOOT, XESMITH, and Long lakes received the heaviest consignments of fish during the latest distribution of fish as part of the 1941 fall restocking program by the Ohio conservation division, Commissioner Don Waters announces. In all, 66,857 yearling bluegills from the Akron fish farm on Myers island, North reservoir, and 292,500 fathead minnows from the Chagrin Falls fish farm were planted in Summit county waters. Earlier this fall 25,683 large breeder fish were released at the Portage lakes and other state-owned or controlled lakes. Sharing in the most recent planting were: Turkeyfoot lake, 19,152 bluegills and 97,500 fathead minnows; Nesmith lake; 15,735 bluegiUs and 52,500 fathead minnods; Long lake, 13,325 bluegills; East reservoir, 9,500 bluegills and 97,500 fathead minnows; Nimisila reservoir, 9,145 bluegills, and West reservoir, 45,000 fathead minnows.

H. M. "Bert" Cannell, district 3 supervisor, assigned distribution details to George D. Messerly, fish management agent. The distribution was made by W.

T. Boden, Summit county game protector, and A. C. Downing, superintendent of state fish farm No. 10.

Sportsmen aiding in the planting were W. E. Dustman, Ray Steele, E. F. McKee, Alex Bozy, Ted Dietry, Pete Jankowski and Harry Drop.

The trophies were packed by horse seven miles through the mountainous country to the nearest town. Domer was one of a party of Dalton, Rittman and Orrville sportsmen. Erie Marshlands Alive PRESUMABLY THE DUCK hunting season proper is here at least, around the Lake Erie bays and marshlands. The past week with its cool autumn air and early morning mugginess brought large flocks cf wild geese and ducks winging their way overhead. Sandusky reports that all available blinds have been filled, particularly in the east Sandusky bay marshes.

At midweek Nathan Ladd, a Put-In-Bay resident, reported that part of a flock of geese had landed in the harbor there. Such incidents are the exception rather than the rule, for most of the south-bound geese are flying high with no stopovers in the Erie district. Islands off the Sandusky shore insist that flights are heavier than usual with the wildfowl showing a nearly equal distribution of mallards, widgeons, canvassbacks, buffleheads, whistle-winga. and pintails. The heat of is providing sweet music to the ears of duck hunters at East West Harbors, Sand Point, Danbury, along the Catawba peninsuli; id the Sandusky marshes.

Furthermore, good hunting around Lake Erie presages better hunting in Ohio's inland waters. For instance, there's the interesting note anent such gunning by Mrs. A. E. Fields, 2072 E.

Market st. Her husband bagged two geese and a mallard his first waterfowl, incidentally on a trip downstate to Gnadenhutten on a visit to Mrs. Fields' parents. His first hour along the Tuscarawas river netted only a duck, but then he spied a wedge of geese 14, in all and shot two. As it was pouring down rain, we were unable to get a picture All in all, we can still say sincerely that we believe there will be enough tires for those who need them, if everybody helps, and if something unforeseen docs not develop.

If you need tires, now is a good time to buy them because tires put on in cold weather actually give up to 20 per cent more miles of tread wear than tires put on in hot weather. i But if you don't need new tires, ouf best advice to you is the same as it was last summer do everything you can to make the tires you now have last longer. Several suggestions are printed below to help you do this. To summarize we at Goodyear will continue to make as many tires as we Can, and they will all be Goodyear, quality. You can do your part by getting the longest possible service out of your tires, and by buying new tires only when the need actually arises.

THI GOODYEAR TIRE I RUIIER COMPANY, INC. benefit of every one. In addition to large amounts for defense purposes, enough rubber has been allocated to prevent hardship to the consumer. And certain improvements in tire production and distribution are contributing to efficiency. Add to this the great advance that has been made in the production of synthetic rubber in the past year.

Chemigum, for example, the synthetic rubber developed by Goodyear, has already been put to use in many places where it is proving superior to natural rubber. The rubber industry can point with pride to the fact that tire prices are lower today than they were at the time the war broke out. For example, on September 1, 1939, a 6.00-16 Goodyear G-3 AllAVeather Tire listed at $1435, including Federal Excise Tax. Today that same tire, improved in quality, lists at $13.95, including Federal Excise Tax. This despite the fact that the Federal Excise Tax was $.48 then and is now $1.05.

certainty about tires was sweeping the country, we published a message entitled some good news in the rubber situation," in which we told you the facts as they appeared to us at that time. Among other things, we said that we believed there would be enough tires for those who needed them, provided everybody helped. Now three months Have passed. There have been titanic changes in the world. It seems an appropriate time to come to you again with a report about conditions as we see them now.

We are glad to be able to report that definite progress has been made. The Government, as you know, has been building up a reserve rubber supply for many months, through the Rubber Reserve Company, and is continuing to increase it.
