"We'll probably be working day and night to get out the flood of requests," today declared Commission Director Seth Gordon.

15 Lycoming, Sullivan, Warren and Cameron have ex hausted their quotas. The present buck season, he added, has been disappointing and said present reports indicate the kill will fall far short of the 31,000 antlered deer bagged in 1942. He blamed a manpower shortage and failure of hunters to follow Commission suggestions on the small kill. "There were less hunters out this year and the deer were not stirred up as in past years," he asserted. "Also a lot of hunters failed to heed our advice to hunt the outlying wooded sections and insisted upon trying to drive deer in the deep, woods.

R. had been given the business for the past two years. He cited the fact that his firm's route was shorter and would therefore reduce the length of time which the cars would be in use by about half.

He based his appeal for the business on the benefits which the P. R. R. has brought to Chambersburg. He pointed out that the P.
