North Zone Dove
Season Expected
To Be Very Good
Opening of the north zone
mourning dove season at noon
Wednesday marked what could
be one of the best shoots in re-
cent years, according to the ex-
ecutive secretary of the Game
and Fish Commission.
He said the showers that pre-
ceded the opener restored water
tanks in many parts of the state
at a time when the early migra-
tion of the fleet birds was under-
way. *
"Reports from scattered
areas," said the executive secre-
tary, "indicate there are plenty
of native birds and that thous-
ands of others have moved into
the state enroute to their winter-
ing grounds in Mexico and Cen-
tral America.
"The problem is to have
enough feed and water to hold
them in Texas. Feed seems to be?
adequate in most places and the
available water has been in-
creased by moderate to heavy
rains."
The executive secretary point- j
ed out that roughly three-fourths 1
of Texas will be open to mourn-
ing dove hunting at noon Wed- j
nesday. The North Zone season
runs through Oct. 10. The South
Zone season prevails from noon
Oct. 1 through Nov. 9.
The North Zone comprises Val
Verde, Kinney, Uvalde, Medina,
Bexar, Comal, Hays, Travis, Wil-
liamson, Milam, Robertson, Leon,
Houston, Cherokee, Nacogdo-
ches, and Shelby Counties and j
all counties north and west I
thereof.
The executive secretary said
the best time to hunt mourning!
doves is late In the day when j
they are moving to and from j
feeding and watering areas. He
said they "loaf" in the shade in j
the heat of the* day and do not,
move about much.
He explained the favorite feed
of mourning doves is grass seed,!
weed seed, and seed of domestic j
grain such as red top cane, he- i
gari, or any kind of small grain.
The daily limit is ten doves, j
Possession limit is the same, j
Daily shooting ends at sunset.!

Novy Increases
Enlistment Quotas
The "waiting list" of appli-
cants for enlistment in the Unit-
j ed States Navy has been prac-
tically eliminated due to the re-
cent quota increases, it was an-
nounced this week by Chief E.
H. Linenbroker, recruiter in
charge of the U. S. Navy Re-
cruiting Sub-Station at Lubbock.
He said. 'The Navy has dras-
tically increased its require-
ments lor new recruits during
the fiscal year 1955."
For the past year and a half.
the recruiter said, navy appli-
cants have had to wait several I
months before they were able to
enlist. With the quota doubled
this month and further increases |
expected during tne coming fig-
cal year, most applicants and
particularly those making top I
qualifying scores, can be enlist-
ed without waiting beyond the!
processing period."
Let us havg faith that right
makes might, and in that faith
let us. to he end, dare to do our
duty as we understand it.

Just a simple twist of the wrist
washes and drys our clothes!"
says: MRS. WARREN M. BARTON
1814 Boyd St. • Borger, Texas
"My husband is a mechanic, and has dirty, greasy clothes every day. And, of course, Janna
Lynn, my five-months-old daughter, has to have clothes washed every day."
"It's so easy with an automatic washer and a dryer — espeeially the dryer. I can come
home from work, and throw the dirty clothes in the washer, and then dry them that very evening,
ready to be worn the next day."
