Elbert the muskrat trapper bets on season end
Elbert, secretary of the Lorain County Fish and Game Association, has trapped over 100 muskrats since the season began November 15 and aims to add more before January 15. Muskrat skins fetch about 80 cents each, promising profit for his efforts. Don Budge and Elsworth Vines open their pro series January 3, with Budge likely earning under 100000. Joe Scott will miss the Alumni game versus Elyria High, instead joining Western Reserve in Cleveland as part of a double bill with Indiana, while Baldwin Wallace tangles with Cornell.
