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. ‘

Even Faster Long Distance
Direct dialing L/l Long Distance calls between
cities speeds telephone service . .. and helps
keep the cost low.
By this method, the Long Distance operator quickly
punches a few buttons. Then, intricate and costly auto
matic equipment goes to work to put the call straight
through to the telephone in the distant city, without going
through another operator. It's fast!
Punch-button Long Distance and other new advances
are part of our continuing job of bringing you more and
better telephone service. It’s a job that takes a financially
healthy Telephone Company, with enough earnings to keep
service good today—and growing tomorrow
