Weather Opens Pheasant Hunt Amid Quiet Green County Start
Wisconsin's 23 day pheasant season began at noon with a quiet Green County opening. In Monroe few hunters arrived, hotels and homes reported little business, and traditional events were dropped. Stocking boosted prospects with 3 400 adult cocks and 4 583 birds raised by cooperators, plus 1 400 hens released on state lands. Opening conditions favored low bag counts early with limits of two and four later in the week, while waterfowl and other small game also opened with notable success and Thanksgiving dinners aided by early geese.

Midas' Places Needles in Orbit
The Air Force launched a Midas IV rocket from Arguello California carrying 350 million copper needles to form a five mile wide radio reflective belt around Earth. The 30 foot craft released needles into a near circular orbit 2100 miles high, completing a 30000 mile circuit every 2 hours 52 minutes. Radar will take days to confirm dispersal pattern while scientists weigh potential effects on astronomy and satellites. Approval came from Dr Jerome B Wiesner amid opposition from astronomers worried about impacts on observations. Each needle is 7 to 10 thousandths of an inch long and one third the thickness of a human hair.
