These shipments are the first to be made in accordance with a plan for restocking the country with game through the establishment of sanc- tuaries on which birds can increase unmolested. The overflow from these sanctuaries will provide shooting on contiguous lands. With the aid of its members the association hopes to start such refiges in every suitable com- munity by supplying the birds to stock them. Although only pheasants and mal- lard duc were reared last summer in sufficient numbers for distribution, experiments with quail, ruffed grouse, wild turkeys, wooq ducks and Canada geese proved very satisfactory and resuited in a supply of these birds it is hoped that enough can be raised next year to warrant sending them out. Especial attention is being given to the native upland if success with quail and ouse continues, they-will in time en- tirely supplant the English pheasants 1t the association’s farm.

New York Writer Says Springfield Boy May Prove Greatest Man for Dis- tance of All Time. An “ali-America” track team is of- fered by the New York Press. How- ard Drew of Springfield is the repre- sentative for the 100 yard dash, and of him the following 1is written: “Drew undoubtedly is the greatest 100 yard man America has produoed since the palmy days of Arthur Duf- fey. The young negro is a veritable speed marvel, and it would not be at all surprising to see him prove that he is the greatest 100 yard man of all time. Drew has the old ‘patter-patter’ pick up that marked the starting of Piper Donovan, H. M. Johnson and George Steward, the famous old pro- fessionals. Flash Donaldson, the South African professional, is about the only one of the present day sprinters, either amateur or professional, who has the old pick up down to such & degree of perfection as Drew has, “Drew not only gets off his mark like an arrow from the bow and picks up his speed in a wonderfully short dis- | tance, but he has a truly wonderful burst of speed. His only bad tendency is to ease down once he gets in the lead. That fault some day may cost him an important race. What Drew is to the 100 yard men Cralg is to the furlong sprinters. The negro is the only amateur in the worid who has proved himself to be faster than Craig at 100 yards, Craig, however, can sustain his speed for 320 yards and is an Invincible furlonger. Di as yet has not shown that ability.” A Regular Caru If Secretary Wilson's annual report for 1912 is his swan song, it is at least 2 mighty sweet one—Chicago Inter Ocean. A Real Fire-eater. Col.
