Ducks Stocked In Potomac Threatened By Harvest
Frederick county sportsmen urged to protect mallard ducks released along the Potomac and Monocacy rivers. The tame hatchery birds are easily trapped and several have already been killed. Hunters are asked to refrain during the wild waterfowl season to allow the 300 birds to breed and repopulate. Meanwhile odds on the Redskins over the Giants fell after John Bull Karcis, a hard running back, was signed by the Giants after a Pirates house-cleaning following three losses.
