The tract has numerous bodies of water, and is largely forest and pasture land. Northwest of Perry Sityated just west of U.S. Highway 19, a few miles north- west of Perry on the Econfina River, the refuge is about mid- way between the uncharted San lishments. Many Courts Needed ; “The United States is going to_ need 4,000 such courts to care for sivilian postwar air traffic,” Richards states. Present plans’ sall for an official opening of his “Aerolodge and Airport” in early j December. Gas pumps are now being installed and work on a hangar has started. i As rapidly as materials become available he proposes to erect eight cottages, each with a can-| apy large enough to aceommodate | the smaller sports type aircraft; a lounge building in which fliers may gather to compare flying notes; tennis and shuffleboard courts. = Near Silver Springs The field is situated just 900 feet north of the Silver Springs highway and only 1800 feet from the tourist spot which attracts thousands of visitors each year.

Game Warden Howell, who has an intimate knowledge of Taylor county wildlife gained in years of experience in the woods of this area, says that the new refuge contains numerous deer. Among other game in the area may be found wild turkeys, opos- sums, raccoons, foxes, bears, squirrels, quail, does, ducks, alli- gators, skunks, ‘mink, bobcats and panthers. Safe Breeding Ground The Commission created the refuge for an indefinite period at their session in Jacksonville last Thursday. Purpose of this action, which was sponsored by the Tay- lor County Chamber of Com- ‘merce, is to provide safe breed- ing grounds for fish and wildlife to perpetuate stocks in this wide- ly known hunting and fishing area.
