N. PITTSBURGH. Sept. is more money spent annually by hunters and anglers in the United States than all other sports combined--and that includes the popular baseball, basketball and golf. Anglers spend most, more than one billion, 200 million dollars each year.

Hunters follow with about 165 million dollars. These figures include expenses to and from hunting and fishing grounds, equipment and room and board. The angler spends from $5 to $2,000 yearly for his favorite sport, and the hunter from $10 up into the hundreds of dollars. It is a rarity for hunters to spend lew. than $50 a year, and they average about $150.

Frank G. Menke, in his book The Encyclopedia of Sports, 1 states this army of hunters and anglers spends more money each year than would be needed to all the race tracks in America all the football stadiums and jaseball parks, all professionn all players, hockey rinks, dot racing tracks and dogs, polo fields and ponies, rodeos and equipment auto speedways--and there woulc still be plenty left to "build a handsome pobtofncc." Jn Pennsylvania, we have abou' 850,000 hunters, and almost 600,000 llshermen. The State also has approximately 200,000 residen nmlcrs who live on farms and do not purchase hunters' licenses, if hunt on their own or noigh- xiring farms. Late figures show Pennsylvania has 857,596 acres of game land purchased since 1920. There are also thousands of miles of streams creeks and lakes, good for fishing Pennsylvania is exceeded by onl; six states in fishing license sales with Michigan heading the list California anglers, however, paid more annually, due to a high license fee.

In the 1947 hunting season imrods killed over and almost two million rabbits The latter figure is based on nek officers' reports, while nimrods ar required to turn in individual big game kills.

Marietta declared. the deer themselves have degenerated into specimens bearing small racks. From the original 30 counties, the white tailed deer have advanced throughout the 67 counties in'Pennsylvania, even to the urban ureas of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. There have been 15 anllerloss deer seasons during the past 25 years. However, the commission is still unable to control the growth of the herd.

The commission's food und cover development is also retarded despite the removal of lumber stands, to provide browse, und seeding of food plot; in the State forests, This is because the increased deer population consumes almost all the seedlings planted before they have a chance to develop. In all probability, the PCC will establish a doe season in 1949, to reduce the deer herd to croresponc with the available food supply. Pennsylvania's deer kill has averaged 45,000 for the last five years. The high year was 95,001 and the low 30,000. Michigan leads in the present deer kill, and Pennsylvania is about fourth.

season also showed a rather large black bear kill, exceeded only by four oilier large kill.i: In 1924 when there were 929 killed; 1930, 707; 1933, 586, and 1942, 596.
