Colleges Fear Baseball Draft Will Mushroom
CHICAGO AP In the wake of MLB expansion to 24 teams a Big Ten spokesman called for extending antidraft safeguards used in college football and basketball to baseball. The majors draft protects players until graduation or 21st birthday, unlike football and basketball. Kay Schultz of the Big Ten Service Bureau cited losses of standout players and a shift of talent to pro teams. He noted three major league teams will stock the talent pool, relying on hundreds of college clubs. The Rams and Beban reportedly sought about 250000 dollars in contract terms months earlier, and one player hinted at joining Canadian pro play if terms failed.

Extend Game Seasons For Pa. Hunters
Harrisburg AP reports a record 482,560 antlerless deer licenses will be issued by the State Game Commission this year, up 87,150 from last season, with provisions to extend antlerless deer seasons if whitetail harvest is inadequate. Liberal small game seasons follow, with nine and a half weeks for grouse and squirrels, seven and a half for rabbits, five weeks for pheasants and quail, and three weeks for turkeys. The fall turkey season lasts four weeks in the North Central region, spring gobbler season to return and expand in 1969, with a Saturday opening and closing next year. Bag limits stay largely the same, but bear camp limits drop to two per party of five or more, beaver limits differ by county, and muskrat trapping days increase due to better water and musk rat populations.
