Rich had a 3 ,silut lead over his nearest rival Ken. Doig who finished with a two under par 70. Doig and Fifield were the only golfers in a field of 106 to break the par of 72. Low net winner of the day was Lorne Litt of Hanover's Whispering Hills with a net of 65. The golfers enjoyed beautiful weather and thanks to Mother Nature and a great greenkeeper, the course was in super shape. Golfers from as far away as Ottawa and Welland competed as well as a contingent of 10 from Bermuda. The Overseas Trophy Winner was Dolly Smatt for the second year in a row. Rob Harwood of Huron Oaks in Sarnia hada-hole in one on the 116 yard par 3 and since that's about as close as you can get, he took the -closest tb the pin prize. Longest drive went to Jim Richardson. Trophies were presented by yours truly and we were happy to have Wiener Bennett back as M.C. With all the comedians in the tournament their was more laughter than good golf and by steve cooke Hunting seasowill open in just a little more than a week, so it's a geed time to get your gear out, give the okl shotgun a good: going over, stock up on shells, and most important of all, make sure you have._. all the necessary licences. General small game licences are available at Smith's Pro' Hardware, and if you're a duck, hunter, don't forget your migratory game bird permit ( duck stamp) at the Post Office. Seasons this year for migratory game birds are from Sept. 26th to Dec. 20th with the following bag limits. Ducks are six per day (not more than two Canvasbacks and two Redheads allowed) with 12 in possession; Geese five per day (except in Southern District II which is the Kitchener Guelph Cambridge area) and ten in possession; Rails, coots and gallinules 10 per day and 20 in possession; Snipe 10 per day and 20 in possession and Woodcock, eight per day and 16 in possession. There are also a few regulations that bear repeating each year in regards to duck hunting. They are: No person shall hunt (migratory game birds) using a rifle or shotgun shells loaded with one bullet; with a shotgun capable of : holding more than three shells in the magazine and: chamber combined; earlier than one- half hour before_:sunrise; or later than one-half after sunset; within l00 metres of an area baited with grain or otherr food. No person -shall kill, cripple or wound a migratory game bird without making all reasonable efforts to, retrieve the bird. The retrieved bird shall be killed immediately and included in the hunter's daily bag. limit. No :;person shall possess ortransport a migratory game bird unless at least one wing and the plumage _thereof remains attached to the bird. These are just a few of the regulations, and a more complete summary is':attached to your duck stamp, and also contained in they, jt `.of'Hunting Regulation. It . pays to cheejtie§e regulations out closely each year for changes and'additions. The Canadian Wildlife Service has also published a report on the status' of the duck population in Canada _for 1981. They state that, "Our estimates of the duck harvest in Canada have been decreasing slightly each year since 1976. There are many reasons for change in the take of twenty-five (25) species of ducks in a country the size of Canada. But a common element for the past five yearshas been reduced kill in the major duck species in the prairie provinces. In 1980, for example, the Mallard harvest declined in Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, as did wigeon and pintail, while gadwall harvest declined in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. One reason for the declines has been poor habitat conditions on the prairies. Again this year, ' prairie pond counts are very low, especially in Manitoba and Saskatchewan. This year's counts of breeding birds in the spring aerial surveys show reduced prairie populations of mallard, pintail, gadwall, and wigeon. So, although population levels are still high enough that they should be able to recover when habitat conditions improve, we do not expect a good fall flight of ducks from the prairies. The threat remains that drought conditions allow extensive irreversible draining and cultivation of important waterfowl habitat, so recovery may never be complete. Among the other species breeding on the prairies, some, such as shovellers and blue -winged teal, are better able to maintain production in dry years. However, two important diving species, the can- vasback and redhead, showed poor production last year, and will probably do poorly again this year. These species are both down in number now, and will probably suffer further from the low water levels. Off the prairies, the status of ducks is much better. In British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and the Atlantic Provinces, habitat conditions and therefore waterfowl production, should be faity� good. Surveys of ducks reeding in Ontario indicate increases in mallards and La.,,, ducks, which are consistent with the good roduction indicated by last fall's Species Composition urvey. The increase in Ontario mallards seems to be t the expense of black ducks, whose Ontario opulation continues to decrease. See ducks and 0i,leneye in eastern Canada had fairly good roduction last year as indicated by the Species ,ur er . A normal fall flight of these species is expecteu. everyone had a great day.
