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. ¥ * EDITO RIAL by Mollie S.

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.
