Catching Up With Railroad Nev/s
Although it is some tame since we iinvf treated the rail
road situation editoriaL ly, the editor has been having more 01
less correspondence \vil:,h the railr oad company and the legis-
lative recess commission. Please read the letter from Mr. II. C
»Baldwin, vice-president of the New Haven Knilroad , in thi>
We have published the new bus schedtile which leaves
Boston late at, night, Hffld have called the attention of the
uompany to the fact that neither bus nor train goes up both
|nte enottgh for business peop le and early enough for an eve-
ning date.
We understand there is to be a special round-trip tram
up 0M the Kith of March Tor a Boston Garden program . The
flushing Bee Special down last November was a great success
arid we hear there is to be a. "Sweetheart, Special" , appropriate
to Valentine 's Day.
These efforts are all pointini the ri ght way. No situation
,.„,, be forced , but we. feel transportat ion facilities are definitely
improving. We still feel certain, too, that a round-trip train
with special fares on. week-day nights , conveniently timed for
Imisness people and opening hours of Boston entertainments ,
H-ould draw a goodly number of passengers. It may take time
to build it "P- and it. should have good publicizing far enough
ahead. Hut we think such a schedule would work. The Husk-
ing Bee Special was thoroughly advertised and attracted many.
"We are urged to use the tra ins we have now. We do use
lli ein to the best of our ability. Their time schedules do not
always fit our appointm ents , however.
The railroad is co-operating and has the will to fill our
Vieeds. That is a great step forward.

Wlnen Senute Hill 101, asklne
that OiBrtnin days in Octobor be sel
, aside for bow and arrow deer hunt
ing exclusively, was tiled with thi
Btabe legislature a short while ago
there came a barrage of pros ami
eons: that could be heard all the waj
from Provineetown to Beacon Hill
It was the intention of Norman
H. Cook, executive secretary of tin
Cape Cod Chamber of Commerce,
allot laor of the bill , to encourage
this sport only In this county as u
Rateable attraction for the Indian
Summer recreation prpogram, His
proposal won the approval of the
Chamber officials and numerous
otli« r (Jape citizens who, despite
press ent controversy, still feel Hi is
type of woodland sport would be a
wholesome and humane addition to
our autumn activities.
H4 'cause, of the great success ol
how and arrow deer hunting in
Nem Hampshire, Michigan and Wis-
cons in , directors of the Chamber as
well as the members of Hs newly
form ed legislative committee have
unaHifmousiy approved the Intro
ducliion of Mr, Cook's bill.
Reporting from a bulletin of the
Michigan Department of Conserva-
tion, Mr. Cook quoted the following
In a statement to Chamber officers:
"B ow hunting now has been
raisa'd to the position of Michigan's
fastest growing sport. The increase
has "been within two yeurs from an
actual figure of 4,446 how hunters
in 1946 to an estimated 10,000 over
a year ago.
"The sport since it was first le-
galized In 1947 has been enjoyed
by more than 12, 000 archers who
have bagged approximately 400
deer. This success percentage is
only about one tenth that experi-
enced by the average gun hunt-
ers, but it is this small chance of
success, however, that has put a
premium on bow hunting as a first
class sport.
"The future of archery deer
hunting seems bright . . . Conser-
vation authorities in half of the
states In the Union are encourag-
ing bow hunting as a good conser-
vation measure."
Mr. Cook pointed out that the
Beason for bow and arrow hunting
in no way would conflict with the
gunning season . While some Cape
sportsmen have hunted with their
bows during the regular season,
few of them wanted to tuke the
risk of personal injury when Hie
gun hunters were so numerous in
the woods.
