The 1961 Bulldog squad will open its season tonight at
the Trion field as it tangles with the LaFayette Ramblers
from Walker County.
The Bulldogs have suffered two straight losses on open
ing night for the past two years at the hands of the Ram-
biers and will be out to break
that string tonight.
Coach Sam McCain, Bulldog
headman, will begin his 12th
year as head coach of the Trion
eleven. Assistant Coach Gordon
Jones will begin his seventh sea
son with the Bulldogs. Both
coaches are well pleased with
the showing of the Bulldogs in
practice thus far and they are
looking forward to a fine year.
The Bulldogs again will be
heavily outmanned and out
weighted by most of their op
ponents. They seem to have a
lot of desire and hustle though
and they will surprise some of
the better teams.

Too Many Deer Means Problems
Georgia’s deer population is at an all time high.
In fact, the deer are becoming so plentiful that a
food shortage exists in many areas.
Here’s what is happening: A few years ago in
the Blue Ridge Management Area an average
healthy deer weighed 135. But recently the average
has dropped to 85 pounds due to overcrowded con
ditions and shortage of food.
Land can only support a certain number of
deer. And, when the herd keeps growing in
numbers and hunters fail to remove the ex
cess, they soon starve.
The time will come when a mixed bag limit must
be put into effect throughout the state. First, how
ever, the Game and Fish Commission is faced with
the thorny problem of overcoming public sentiment.
People are so used to the “buck only” law that they
object to killing does.
The “buck only” law was very necessary in by
gone years because the Commission was trying to
get deer repopulated over the state. But, now that
the deer population has become so abundant and
widespread and the size deminishing; in the very
near future — very possibly next year — Georgia
hunters should be given the task of removing both
bucks and does. This is certain to assure better
deer hunting for years to come.
Open deer season (bucks only) extends from
November 6 through November 21 in the fol
lowing counties: Dade. Murray, Fannin. Gilmer,
Dawson, Lumpkin, Union. Towns, White,
Rabun, Habersham. Stephens. Banks, Elbert,
Wilkes. Lincoln, Taliaferro, Warren. McDuffie,
Columbia. Richmond. Hancock. Baldwin, Put
nam. Jasper. Jones, Henry, Butts, Monroe, and
sections of Walker. Chattooga and Pickens.
A three day hunt is scheduled for November IS,
17 and 18th in Floyd, Polk, Haralson and Paulding
Counties.
Bag limit for this area is one buck. No dogs
can be used.
Candler County will have “Thursdays only” hunts
beginning November 2 and ending January 4,1962.
One buck is bag limit.
Season gets underway November 1 and ends
January 5. 1962, in Muscogee, Chattahoochee,
Marion, Stewart, Webster, Sumter, Miller,
Seminole, Decatur. Mitchell. Brooks. Cook. Ber
rien. Lanier, parts of Echols. Clinch, Ware,
Atkinson. Coffee. Tift, Irwin. Jeff Davis, Ben

loch. Effingham, Toombs. Tattnall. Evans,
Brvan. Chatham, Long. Liberty, Wayne, Ap
pling. Mclntosh, Glynn, Brantley, Camden and
Charlton.
Bag limit is two bucks. Dogs allowed except in
Appling County.
In the five county area of Calhoun, Dougherty,
Baker, Grady and Thomas, the season begins No
vember 1 and ends January 5. 1962. Bag limit is
one buck and one doe or two bucks. Dogs can be
used in these counties.
three quarterbacks have slowed
down the Bulldogs somewhat
and they must find some help.
Randy Hill suffered a broken
foot last week in scrimmage and
Johnny Simmons was injured
this week. The coaches are
working on the problem and will
probably make some changes
before game time.
David Bethune and Harold
Gardner, halfbacks, are counted
on heavily to carry a lot of of
fensive load and Tracy Campbell
should be able to get the short
yardage when needed. Quarter
back Billy Thomas can and
probably will be throwing the
ball for the distance. Marshal

to squat, giving passengers quite an un
easy feeling as the boat tilts—also per

rides level in the water and the motor
performs at maximum efficiency.

In a last-moment arrangement, the Chattooga High
Indians will open the football season here at 8 p.m. Friday
against Mt. Zion, a Class C outfit from the Bremen-Car
rollton area. —
The original schedule had
called for the season to open
next Friday against Trion.
Head Coach Paul Quinn said
this week he knows little about
the Friday night guests.
The Indians will have a larger
ball club last year but a less ex
perienced one.
“We feel inexperienced,” he
said, "but we have a lot of de
sire and determination that will
be a big factor in whether we
win or lose.”
The coach said he will be able
to play more boys even though

has substitutes for most posi
tions who are almost as good as
the starters.
Ajnew wrinkle is being insti
tuted this year in the selection
of a captain and co-captain. In
stead of selecting two captains
for the entire season, they will
be selected for each game. Pete
Boney and James Peppers have
been named co-captains for the
first game.

not perform Friday night be

not be completed in time, Band

this week.
