Borer W. Bobsoa new about the Columbia, Sept. 12 — With the dove season opened Tuesday and a good crop reported over most of. the state, Director A. A. Richardson of the Wildlife Resources Department urges all hunters to obey the regu lations. — He reminded them that the shoot ing hours are from noon to. sunset with a bag and possession limit of eight and that it is illegal to shoot over a baited field. There is a three-shell limit on guns. Federal regulations allow doves to be shot over standing grain or over grains remaining on the ground as a result of normal agri cultural harvest, for instance where Jiogs or cjgttle have been turned into a field so that they may harvest the grain remaining in the field. However, it is illegal to take doves over a feed lot where stock is close ly fenced and feed of any type is hauled or distributed in the area. Mr. Richardson also reminds dove hunters that a number of cases were made on the opening day last year, most of them upstate, as groups of state wardens worked with federal agents. The first half of the split season closes Sept. 29 while ' he second half runs Dec. 26-Jan. 9. ‘ four of this season’s newcomers en tered Presbyterian after tours of duty with the ifcmy or navy. ^-Erom-nthe army came Freshman Lee Frierson of Arcadia, Fla., Soph omore Robert Harrington of Mont Clare, and Junior Frank BoulWare of Rock Hill.
