But this year they won't repeat. There is noMFL.

Cap president Joe Wolfla today revealed the Caps have withdrawn from theMFL for 1975 at least in an effort to retain credibility in wake of the instability "of the MFL. But Wolfla maintains that the Caps have not folded asleep" is his euphemistic phrase), but are merely trying to reorganize with otter members of the six-team league. He vows both the Caps and the MFL will return next year. The immediate problem began with the Youngstown, Ohio, franchise which folded at the end of the 1974 season. That, coupled with reduction in -the performance and leagues fees, itlhe uncertainty NASCAR FOR HART MAN? "I'm preparing to run NASCAR next year." This was the word from 4 four-time USAC stock car champion Butch Hartman today as he pondered whether to run the next USAC race at Odessa, Mo.

following his disqualification at Michigan International Speedway Sunday. "We're going to develop the 355 engine. We're not buying anything else for the hemi engine," he said. Hartman added he doesn't expect any additional penalty from USAC for his altercation with Jack Bowsher. "I can't see what they can do, because I didn't start the fight," he exclaimed.

CHEVY VANS By GEORGE TILFORD The Muscatatuck National Wildlife Refuge, 4 miles east of Seymour, is showing a steady increase of visitors each1 year. This refuge was established in 1967, but it wasn't until 1969 that it had enough to offer to attract the bird watchers, mushroom hunters, berry pickers, fishermen and small-game hunters. Last year more than 51,000 6 GFDGHSS SPECIALTY football," Wolfla said. "We're a different kind of animal. Our guys are worth more than $25." However, some of the players have recently charged that they have neither received what they are worth nor what they "were promised.

This, they say, is one reason the Caps will not operate this year. Wolfla emphatically denies this allegation. "We don't owe anybody in Indianapolis a i he said. "We're all paid. Everybody who signed with us has received every nickel.

That's how we lost money. "But it's not the money that made us stop. There's no way we can take anything off taxes until we close Caps, and we haven't closed Caps, Inc. We figured this season would be our break even season." Nevertheless, finances were a concern of Caps management, Wolfla added, saying his players couldn't be paid if other teams reneged on schedule dates. "We didn't want to take the field unless we paid them," he said.

They arrived equipped with camera and field glasses to study a large variety of birds that are permanent residents or the migrating birds that visit the 4 by 6-mile bird sanctuary. The area is the southern migration stop during the winter for many species of birds from the northern states and Canada. During the summer it is the nesting site for birds that live in the warmer climates.

It's noted for its large number of beautifully marked wood ducks. The area also holds a large number of wild geese the year around. Muscatatuck's i 1 i cal technician. Ed Wagner, has counted 130 different species of birds on the property. From one spot near a swamp on one of the area's two trails, he said, "an early morning visitor now may see as many as 30 to 40 different species." During the fall and spring, thousands of ducks, geese and other migrating birds are attracted to Muscatatuck's 50 man-made ponds and marshes and also the large grain, grass and clover fields cultivated for these birds.
