Al Hall of / Stamford, ^ dii?trict game manager for'the CatskUls, talked before the Margaretville Rotary club Tuesday at the regu-: lar meeting which was held at Bowl's hotel. Mr. Hall told the Rotafians that hunting and fishing are big business and spend four billion dollars per year. This is a greater sum than all the gaso- line stations in the U. S. A*, re- ceive, more than is spent in all the drug stores, more than is spent for any other outdoor sport. Con- servation is fairly new in America and is a growing development. Without it the laiUd will fail to feed the growjhg ' population and mankind will stki^e as it, indeed, already has in some parts of the world. Hot Baseball 'Next Summer! Ed Ruelbachj who led National league pitchers in^ 1905, 1906 and 1907 during which the Chicago Cubs won pennants, and when the infield, Tinkers to Evers'^ to Chance, made the fans tallr from East to West, is working for the Wafeh-Perini company on the dam job at Downsville. More than that, Louis Perini of B. Perini & Sons, Inc., a dam contractor, is the owner of the Boston Braves of the National league, which team is expected by Boston fans to finish not lower than 1, 2, 3 in the race this year. Mr. Perini is a baseball enthusiast himself. But further still, and equally important, Downsville comes close to being the best basebaU town in the county, and it has been so for 50 years. This fact stems from Fred Odwell and his brother, George. Fred was an infielder with the Cincinnati Reds when Christie M^thewson was pitching for the New York Giants. George played professional ball with Al- bany. The two Odwells liave kept Downsville on the baseball map for half a century. So it will pay baseball fans in Delaware, Otsego and Sullivan' towns to keep an eye on Downs- ville. They'll see a smart te£un in operation. Fred Odwell pitched for Wilkes-Barre before he got into faster company Within two years Downsville will have perhaps 200 new skilled and unskilled men on the dam and on the 35 miles of new high- way both sides of the village be- tween Downsville and Margaret- ville. A good local baseball team doubtless would be well supported; —Hancock Herald.

Hot Baseball 'Next Summer! Ed Ruelbachj who led National

league pitchers in 1905, 1906 and 1907 during which the Chicago Cubs won pennants, and when the infield, Tinkers to Evers' to Chance, made the fans tallr from East to West, is working for the Wafeh-Perini company on the dam job at Downsville.

More than that, Louis Perini of B. Perini & Sons, Inc., a dam contractor, is the owner of the Boston Braves of the National league, which team is expected by Boston fans to finish not lower than 1, 2, 3 in the race this year. Mr. Perini is a baseball enthusiast himself.

But further still, and equally important, Downsville comes close to being the best basebaU town in the county, and it has been so for 50 years. This fact stems from Fred Odwell and his brother, George. Fred was an infielder with the Cincinnati Reds when Christie M^thewson was pitching for the New York Giants. George played professional ball with Al-bany. The two Odwells liave kept Downsville on the baseball map for half a century.

So it will pay baseball fans in Delaware, Otsego and Sullivan' towns to keep an eye on Downs-ville. They'll see a smart te£un in operation. Fred Odwell pitched for Wilkes-Barre before he got into faster company

Within two years Downsville will have perhaps 200 new skilled and unskilled men on the dam and on the 35 miles of new high-way both sides of the village be-tween Downsville and Margaret-ville. A good local baseball team doubtless would be well supported; —Hancock Herald.

January Cold in Oneonta

January was one of the most frigid months in the 52 y e a r s of official weather records in One-onta, Weather Observer F. M. H Jackson! says.

The month came in cold and got progr essively colder, closing with a final day on Saturday,

the four coldr on record.

The mercury dipped to a low of minus 21 degrees Saturday in the city. Only three times previously have temperatures been lower in January, Mr. Jackson said. These were 28 below on Jan. 19, 1904; 24 below on Jan. 13, 1912, and 23 below on Jan. 28, 1925. In^shorti the 21 below on Saturday was the lowest for any January 'day in the last. 23 years, i, '

The 52-year average, for that month is 24.8 degrees above zero, while the mean temperature for the past month was 15 degrees, or 9.2 degrees below the average, Mr. Jackson said.

Elsewhere in Oneonta area the unofficial' readings Saturday and Sunday wre much lower than in Oneonta.—Oneoijta Star. •• *
