Ulster predicted Fred Ford head of the game division of the Re- gion 3 division of the State Environmental Conservation Department here The trend has been up in Ulster County since Ford added The record take of was set in 1974 and our field estimates are that the Ulster deer herd could be up by at least 40 per cent this season Among the factors cited by Ford as responsible for the huge herd are the policy absence of party mits and an unusually mild winter with a mortality rate The reports we have been receiving of crop damage by deer supports our belief that the deer are present in record numbers in Ulster Ford added Record Harvest Predicted Department biologists have predicted that Ulster Greene and Sullivan Counties will be among the best for buck ing in the entire state this season Two Ulster areas that attract hordes of hunters are Wittenberg and Hurley Mountain but Ford warned that private hunting areas in Ulster County are limited Much of the choice land has been posted by game he said and hunters should contact land owners to get permission to hunt Ford said that the weather is a variable element in deer hunting Some hunters like to hunt in the he said Others prefer a light snowfall to track deer and then others like me prefer clear crisp weather giving the deer and the hunter an even break Nearby Delaware County traditionally the best deer hunting county

Ellenville has won the latest court battle in a protracted dispute with the Salesian Society Inc over a critical parcel of land at Sam's Point But whether the village will ultimately win the war in the boundary dis- pute which could have a major effect on the operation of the village water supply remains to be seen In a unanimous decision handed down by the Appellate Division of State Supreme Court the court has ruled in favor of tht village which had appealed a 1974 State Court decision granting the parcel to the ian Society Inc the legal corporation of the Salesians of Don Bosco a prominent Ro- man Catholic religious order However according to Douglas J Hunt an attorney with the law firm of Kaiser Murray and Traficanti which represented the village the latest decision reversing the previous State Supreme Court decision was based solely on a legal technicality and was not addressed to the merits of the case Hunt explained that ing to the court's randum accompanying the de- the reason for the re- versal and dismissal of the Salesian Society complaint was that the Salesian Society did not file a notice of claim with the village an required by General Municipal Law The law requires that a no- tice of claim be filed within 90 days of the injury resulting in the complaint The Sales mns filed no notice of claim with the village Hunt Raid However Hunt explained the court's ruling went on to say that since the case involves a continuing injury the ian Society could now file a notice of claim and reopen the law suit It is not known whether the Society will attempt to take the matter further A spokesman for the Salesian Society's main office in New Rochelle referred The Free man to the society's hattan lawyer who could not be contacted Saturday for an- swers to

executive manpower I ever saw Colin however soon came to con- sider the enigmatic Aubrey a powder barrel and feared that Aubrey's widely rumored in- discretions would surface one day and cause CBS trouble But as long as he produced Aubrey continued to enjoy his considerable freedom as network president Only when faltered did the CBS eye pop open to discover Aubrey's eccentric personal habits and he was then dis- missed For the five years he heeded the CBS Network he was the scourge of the entertainment world showing a decisiveness that was almost ag much as his ruthlessness was deplored And perhaps not surprisingly the tall eyed Aubrey Princeton football star and Air Force major in fact during World War 2 he taught flying to actor and now Air Force General Jimmy Stewart could be very very charming when it pleased him Critics may have been dis- mayed by the James T Aubrey years but not larly surprised commercial television had always been re- as the child of greed not art Wall
