(JP) William Weaver, good looking and 15, walked out into tha sunlight with the double-barralied hope of a young hunter. Before the day was over, William Weaver became a statistic on hunting fatalities. Bill and a young companion were out hunting ducks. buddy tripped on a stick, fell and the gun fired. Bill died instantly, a wad of shot behind his left ear.

Police ruled the shooting as accidental. case is of special interest because it is in his age group that the hunting rate is highest and because his type of accident is one of the most common. 'The conservation department took a close look at deer hunting accidents in Michigan from 1943 to 1954. (Statistics are about the same for small game hunters.) Here is what they found: For every 10,000 licenses issued, there were five accidents in the 11-17 age group; 3.6 among hunters 18-20; 1-7 in the 21-30 age bracket and only .9 among hunters over 31. In 1954 there were 19 killed and 230 injured just in Michigan.

The greatest toll was taken by hunters who misjudged their positions and shot companions. Careless loading and unloading also took its toll. Several states, including New York, New Jersey and California, require you to take a course in gun handling before you can get your first license a long step toward making hunting safer for the younger sportsmen. Other incorporate the National Rifle Assn. training program in their public school systems.

At any rate, remember the following when. hunting: 1. Handle every gun as if loaded. 2. In your car, camp or home carry only an empty gun, taken apart or with the action open.

3. Always be sure the barrel and action are clear of obstacles. 4. Watch where you point that muzzle and keep the safety on until ready to shoot. 5.

Be sure of your target before you pull the trigger. 6. Never point your gun at anything you want to shoot. 7 Never leave your gun unattended unless it's empty. 8.

Never climb a tree or fence with a loaded even with the safety on. Put the gun through the fence and climb over. 9. Never shoot at a flat hard surface or surface of water. 10.
