If present plans of the State
Highway Department materialize,
Santa Anna will have one of the
most attractive civic parks In this
area, to be dedicated to tile Texas
Rangers. The park would be .at the
eastern end of the Santa Anna
mountain, occupying approximately
35 acres, and would be a part of the
State Highway Department beauti-

Duck hunters should have cue of
the best seasons in the history of
the Lake Scarborough this year, ac-
i cording to Howard Walker, keeper

hunting >^eson ahead for ducks and
geese as this year. Two local hunters
yesterday morning, Dr, Prank Burke
and Sid Harris, got iheir limit in
22 minutes.
Hunters at the lake must observe
all Federal and State regulations
and local rules set up at the lake.
They must be checked in and out]
of the lake by the keeper, and may
<rrter the lake only at each end at
the landings. They must have a
Federal duck stamp, casting one
on the license, which costs
The following rules and regu-
lations prescribed b.v State and Fed-
eral game laws were condensed for
publication b.v Mr. Walker to guide
hunters at the lake. He warns
them to observe all rules, otherwise

j this area.

al or wooden 'filler incapable of re-
moval through the loading end, so
as to reduce the capacity ot llie gun
to not more than three shells at
one loading.

There is already a band stand and
