Todd on Friday released information on their recent Quail surveys to Augusta county, and information as to recently placed coveya of "federal" and "state" birds on county farms and contracts obtained for small game refuges. Both wardens interviewed, mostly from Sept. 6 through the middle of October, many county fanners as to coveys of birds they had seen in 1940. Results constituted the wardens' quail survey for this year. Warden Miller interviewed 162 farmers in his half of the county.

There was no guesswork about it. he said. If a farmer "thought" or was not sure about his figures, the data were not included in the surveys. Warden Todd Interviewed ninety-three farmers in his section of Augusta. In all cases, the interviews were so selected that results formed a cross-sectional report of farmers, the wardens said.

Miller's Survey Of the 162 farmers Interviewed by Warden Miller, they reported having seen 133 coveys of young quail uus year, on the same farms last year, 321 coveys were seen. Sixty- seven farmers reported only old birds seen this year, while fourteen farms reported having no birds in 1940. Warden Todd interviewed ninety- three farmers, who reported having seen 171 coveys of young quail this year. The 171 coveys were far below the 206 coveys seen in 1939.. Farmers reporting having seen no birds thLi year totaled sixteen.

Not single farmer reported any old birds on his farm this year. Ten fanners in 1939 reported having no old birds. Warden Todd said farmers he In terviewed reported having seen from ten. to sixtei per covey, this year. The wardens stressed the fact that coveys reported by the farm ers Interviewed had actually beenJ seen.

None of the farmers wanted his name used in print. Both wardens this year "planted coveys of young quail. There were two types of birds, federal and state. Warden Miller reported having planted state birds on the follow ing farms, all of which will be closed to any and all types of hunting: Walter Rosen's farm, Middle brook; G. D.

Hodges' farm at Arbor Hill; B. A. Jacob farm and adjoining lands. In the Two-Mile hill neighborhood. These birds were released in September, fifteen birds being in each covey, Warden Miller sald.

State Birds Warden Todd planted state birds on the following farms, all of which will be closed to hunting this fall: Guy L. Branaman farm, four miles north of Waynesboro; John W. Robson farm (Prlchard place), Staunton, route two; Clay P. Mc-Clure farm, Spottswocd. There were fifteen birds in each covey, the warden said, and all were planted last month.

Both wardens arranged with se lected fanners for small game ref uges for quail and other wild game under funds of the Plttman-Rob-ertson act. Ten birds were thus planted in each covey. Warden Miller obtained five contracts, Warden Todd, four. All were might be called "federal birds." Contracts were secured by War den Miller with the following: T. G.

Shuey, near and Just south of Church vllle; Mrs. S. E. Dunlap, of near Lone Fountain; Mrs. Eva M.

Baylor, west of Churchville, Ferd Harvey, Buffalo gap, and W. W. Trimble, who lives between Swoope and Summerdean. All -of these small refuges will be closed to hunters for two years or more. Warden Todd obtained the fol lowing contracts for refuges: John D.

Neff farm, the old Gll keson place, about five miles south of Staunton; Wm B. Speck, Greenville; Charlie Marple, route two. Staunton, about three and one-half miles from the city, and E. P. Cook, of Harrlston." Warden Miller got forty-six fed eral birds.

ANNUAL RED CROSS ROLL CALL GET HALF OF U.S. OUTPUT (Continued from Page 1) The British were understood to have been receiving considerably less than fifty percent of the American production of military planes and tanks. The priorities board, in granting the British purchasing commis sion the right to buy the 12,000 additional planes, said the craft would be built "in existing plants and in other facilities now devel oping." The contracts have yet to be negotiated. President Roosevelt announced Britain's request for permission to place the new order in a speech at Boston on Oct.

30 and said he had asked the priorities board to give It "most sympathetic consid-eratlon." 26,000 in AU The 12,000 planes, the President said, would bring to 26,000 the number of military aircraft on order in this country for the Brit ish. He said at the same time that "large -additional orders are being negotiated for artillery, machine guns, rifles and tanks with equipment and ammunition." The priorities board said it was devising plans "to gear construction of the British planes to American production in such a way as to prevent interference our own requirements," 180FMAJOR CITIES GAVE BIG MARGINS (Continued from Page 1) 233,093 votes. The state's two largest cities, New York and Buffalo, gave him pluralities of 729,836 and 37,312, respectively.

Altogether, the cities polled 11 689.022, or about 24 percent of the 48,111,425 votes, which this tabulation covers. Their total population is 23,854,185, or 18.1 percent of the national total, 131,409,881.

Taylor Explains Board Attitude (Continued from Page 1) who called at the office, as there was a very pressing need of urgency in filling out the many forms and files, but that they would be issued by means of the bulletin board at city hall and by the mailing of questionnaires to registrants in the order of their rank in the national lottery. This statement did not convey the exact Information, Mr. Taylor said, as the local board is willing at all times to help registrants In every way possible and "certainly does not wish to adopt a high-hat However, he explained that the cooperation of everyone is being sought, and that by not having to take time to look up the cards of registrants for their order num bers, greater facility would be possible for the general work. "We are merely asking for everyone to cooperate with us, as it is easy to see that interruptions in the office would mean much loss of time. Nevertheless we shall be glad at all times to aid registrants in every way.

Naturally, we can not help in filling out the questionnaires as this is not within our, jurisdiction, but falls to the lot of the advisory board and its associates," he stated. The mailing of questionnaires continued today with fifty more being sent. This rate will be maintained until the total num ber is mailed. SCORES College Albright 7, Dickinson 0.

Bridge Engineer Says Its Design Was Protested Tacoma, Nov. 8, fV-Clark W.

Eldridge, chief engineer of the ill-fated 1 Narrows bridge, said today state highway engineers had protested the design but that its was built as it was in the interests of economy. The bridge collapsed during a gale yesterday. "The employment of eastern en gineers was because of a requirement by the money-lending agen-" cies that engineers of national reputation be employed," Eldridge said. He added state was told it could hot have- the money unless eastern engineers were used. Grant and Loan The span, opened four months ago, was built with a WPA grant of $2,800,000 and an RFC loan of $3,320,000.

Bridge authorities conferred today on rebuilding plans and state officers sought to place blame for the collapse. Crews of workers dislodged concrete blocks from the sagging approaches to relieve the strain on the two big towers and the main suspension cables. The Washington toll bridge authority held a preliminary meeting at Olympia to discuss yesterday collapse and the matter of insurance adjustment. Gov, Clarence D. Martin reiterated that the bridge, third largest suspension span in the world, would be rebuilt.

Coffee of th! rm. gresslonal district, viewing the catastrophe scene in which no lives were lost promised "a fearless in vestigation, regardless of whose toes are tread upon." Meantime, a fourth survivor of the spectacular collapse recounted a thrill-packed walk across the span.

He was Winfleld Brown. 25-year-old college of Puget Sound student who had driven to the- bridge to watch it sway, then de cided to walk: across it "for the thrill," paying the 10-cent pedes trian fee. "I got plenty of thrill for a dime- he exclaimed today, bandages cover- tag multiple abrasions on his knees. "When I was near lag the middle, the rippling motion stopped and the bridge suddenly began to sway madly from side to side. A car was Just going by me and it smacked into the curb and a man jumped out.

(This was Leonard Coatsworth, News-Tribune reporter who aban doned his car and crawled oft the bridge.) "I was certain wasn't eoinsr to make It. I was so seasick I couidnt stand up. Sometimes the bridge tipped right on its side and I could look straight down at the water, 190 feet below me. I thought was a goner for sure. "The wind was howling and the cement was splitting.

The light standards were bending and the suspender cables cracking. "Finally I got to my feet. I noticed the other man couldn't stand at all. Then he started to crawl and so did "Boy, was I glad to get ashore. I Just laid on the ground." Besides Coatsworth and Brown, a man and.
