CITY GLOBE-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 1941 Anderson Seeks Magic Wand Draft May Cut Into SUI Hopes By 'RICHARD KUNZMAX United Press Sports Writer IOWA CITY. U.R--The University of Iowa hoped Wednesday that Dr. Eddie Anderson, who is busy looking for his missing magic wand, finds it again before the 1941 football season starts. The wand is the one with which Anderson in 1939 manufactured his great machine of Iron Men. Last year he mislaid it (four victories and four defeats) and he's afraid he'll hare to- continue without it this fall.

Laying the foundation for his third season as Iowa's head coach, Anderson this week sent letters to 55 athletes, calling them back to the Hawkeye campus Sept. 10, when Western conference teams will start practice. Ot the 55 men invited to practice, 14 are possible draftees, being from 21 to 23 years old. Whether any will be called during the season is unknown. One of them, Capt.

Bill Diehl. two-letter- inan center from Cedar Rapids, was married here recently and his status rests with the local board. A special questionnaire sent out by Anderson showed that these men are draft eligibles besides Diehl: Jim Walker, Chicago, tackle, Al Couppee, Davenport, quarterback, amid Jerry Ankeny, Dixon, quarterback, all two-letlermen; George Frye, Albia, Bill Parker, Des Moines, end. Bernard Merles, Chicago, halfback, all single lettermen: Bill Green. Xeivton, fullback: Bob Otto, I.ehieh, tackle: Steve Mizen, River Grove, end: Ed Thomae.

Waukon. end: Delmas Dickerhoof, Bellairc. Ohio, guard; Bob Penaluna. 'er- loo. tackle; and George Gable.

Cedar Rapids, tackle, a minor letterman. Unless some of these men are called, Anderson expects a strong backfield but a line weakened by graduation. The picture, position by position: CENTER--Diehl and Frye. both double-lettermen, will fill the berth vacated by Bruno Andruska.

Waterfowl Population Still Rising Despite Almost Complete Kill in '40 By ALEXANDER R. GEORGE AP Feature Service Writer WASHINGTON--Counting your ducks before they're in the bag is a long shot enterprise but prospects for the 1941 duck hunter are comparatively good. An increase from 65,000,000 to 70,000,000 iu the duck and geese population of the North. American continent during the last year gives promise of another good shooting season. On the favorable side also are good water-supply conditions in the breeding grounds, particularly in the west, this summer.

Although the "kill" of the 1940 season came dangerously close to a complete harvest of the year's crop wild fowl, federal authorities do not contemplate any drastic action to restrict shooting. 3t This year's duck increase is the smallest since the restoration program was inaugurated. Officials of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife service (formerly the Biological Survey) say that while further liberalization of the hunting regulations is unlikely, no severe tailment of sportsmen's activities' will be necessary as long as the duck population continues to make gains.

The waterfowl population has more than doubled since a low 32,000,000 was reached in 1935. Emergency funds were provided by congress and the sale or duck stamps was inaugurated in 1931 to finance the purchase and maintenance of waterfowl refuges. The federal government and states also tightened restrictions on duck hunting but these have been liberalized In the last two or three years. This year's increase in ducks has been most notable in the central and Pacific flyways. two regions that for several years showed the slowest recovery.

The Atlantic and Mississippi fly ways NONNWEILER The 1941 federal duck stamp features a pair of ruddy ducks and their brood. The ruddy duck with its fanlike tail, bull neck and pugnacious bill, is known by 61 different names, among them "fool duck," "sleepy cluck," and "blatherskite." The stamps, which must be purchased by all duck hunters over lo, cost $1. These are in addition, oE course, to state licenses. regularly have included most of the waterfowl. Tiie gadwall--you can tell him by his yellow feet--made the biggest gain of any species.

Others showing increases are the black blue-winged teals, shovelers and scaups. Four species ol geese- blue, white-fronted. Canada and cackling---also have increased. The decrease in the redhead duck, near kin of the lordly canvasback and rated highly by epicures, has become a headache problem lor wild life conservators. Dr.

Ira N. Gabrielson. director of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife sen-ice, says the 1941 inventory shows the condition of the redhead carious." continues to be "prc- There also has been a considerable decrease in the ring- neck, a close relative of the redhead and one of the fastest flyers in the duck family.

Although the hunting season does not generally open until October, the new duck stamps have been on sale since July 1. The government expects a bigger business a last year when a record-setting 1,200,000 were sold. The sale of. these stamps dropped from 035.000 in 1934 to in 1935 but has increased steadily since the latter year. The number of national wild life refuges has been increased from 102 to 2GO, more than half of these areas being primarily for migra- waterfowl.
