AFTER THE FOX, They Hope! -- Major Field Mar- sham (left) leads hunters and hounds as the Eridge Hunt moves off in search of the fox. The scene has been part of the British way of life for centuries, but is now com- bined with the elements of sabotage and intrigue. A group known as the Hunt Sa- boteurs Association, led by 21-year-old John Prestidge of Brixham, Devon, are devis- ing tactics to ruin the hunt and save the fox. --(CP Photo) FOOL THE HOUNDS | Fox Hunting Is Being Opposed By Saboteurs By DOUG MARSHALL LONDON (CP) -- Oscar Wilde's' unspeakable hunt- ers are still unbeatable foxes but these days the quarry has an unpeaceable ally. The Hunt Saboteurs Associa- tion, formed last. year by John Prestidge, a 21-year-old free- lance journalist from Brixham, Seances ke maint at every an means available within the law. How do the saboteurs work? Mainly by confusing the most vulnerable element in the hunt- ing ritual--the hounds. Picture the scene: It's a village inn somewhere in Sussex on a frosty January morning. Some 20 or 30 riders in bright hunting pink are pass- ticipating a two - hour canter across the hard green downs. Around them mill 30 or #0 couple of hungry yapping keen- seented hounds -- reared and trained to have little interest in life other than the detection and purusit of wily foxes. LAY FALSE TRAILS Suddenly the hounds don't look so hungry any more. For- sooth, some cad has dumped 50 pounds of freshly butchered horse meat into their midst and even the most traditional of dogs can see the difference be- tween an immediate meal and one he has to run several dif- icult- miles for. Appealing to a dog's stomach, the centre of canine reasoning, |his cohorts have also laid false trails with aniseed into improb- able hunting grounds--such as cemeteries -- and numbed hounds' nostrils with acetone sprays. "We're changing tactics. all the. time," says Prestidge. "There are several new ideas in but they obviously have to be kept secret." Prestidge started his associa- tion with a small legacy and 25 original members. Now the as- sociation claims more than 1,000 saboteurs operating in all parts of the country and its funds have been boosted by large donations from non-active well-wishers. KILL 20,000 FOXES The saboteurs are up against ing around the stirrup cup, an is just one tactic. Prestidge and one of the most entrenched and CANADA OUTDOORS Hunting Sea Geese Can Be Depressing VANCOUVER (CP) -- The brant is a sea goose who would probably die laughing if he came close enough to shore to see the hunter trying to get him in his sights. There are two ways of going after the breed of brant that uses the Pacific Coast as its fly- way. Both are so uncomfortable, and unproductive, that a true humanitarian would be tempted to put the hunter out of his misery. The brant does not fly over land or light in the fields. He must be shot over the sea. This leaves the hunter the choice of making a. "sit-out" in a punt or using the "'stand- out" method--thaj is, sloshing around in chest waders in the shallow tidal flats. Either method requires a minimum of 12 decoys costing a likely $3 each. A punt costs up to $200 if built to specifica- tion. ALMOST HOPELESS Mike _Cramond, Vancouver Province outdoors column- ist, has delivered a light hearted sermon to the uniniti- ated: "If you can stand out in wa- ter above your waist in winter for several hours each day, you might end up with four or five brant -- luck being with you. Rare seasons might jump that to 25 birds. "If you wish to hunt brant by sitting out, you have your work cut out. As the tide recedes it leaves often a quarter mile of sand and mud over which to haul your punt, decoys, guns, and other gear. "This may mean you jaunch in the middle of the night, or return late at night -- or you must have two men and a trailer to aid you. Tides that are good for brant rarely coin- cide with the day time of shoot- . .. Sunny calm days are few. When they do come the brant often chooses not to fly This often leaves you the alter- native of sitting out in discom- fort with a chance to shoot; or enjoying a nice day with little chance of a bird coming in." ONLY FAIR FOOD Cramond says it is common for even a well-equipped hunter to end a season with fewer than six birds for 10 to\15 days in punt or blind. Good seasons might net a single hunter 30 birds for the same tme. And are the brant anything to make a hungry hunter smack his blue, chapped lips over? "Brant have a flavor much like any other goose, are no more than enough for two good servings, and could really not be considered (in all honesty) any more delicious than a mal- lard. "One might wonder. why a brant hunter will go to the pit or blind on a cold, wet and dis- agreeably windy day year after year. I don't know. I have never heard a brant hunter who could tell me why--not in the 15 years that I have been wading and sitting out in all No. Cramond writes: kinds of gawdawful weather." powerful elements in English society.

In Casada, unlike the United States, there is no time limit on when a ticket must be cashed. "We pay on any ticket we have a record of," MacKenzie said. "This is the oldest one to come to my attention. We get a fair amount of two and three-year-old tickets to cash." The 1964 Ontario thorough- bred racing season starts here Saturday.

Foxhunting had been causing' a view - hullabaloo in Britain long before Wilde wittily regis- tered his disgust. Today the rift between those who think hunt- ing a "'filhy ritual' and those who see it as "a golden thread running through the tapestry of our countryside" is as wide as ever. The august Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is bitterly divided be- tween hunters and anti-hunters. The League Against Cruel Sports has so far done little more than erect placards and picket hunting countries. Will sabotage succeed where words and reasoning have failed? Prestidge thinks so.

However, the greatest respon- sibility lies in the home. We've got to stop youngsters they begin to think they are big: men by smoking."' Bobbie Rosenfeld of Toronto, | a member of the 1928 Canadian Olympic track team, sees noth- ing wrong with athletes--either male or female -- taking up smoking after they leave the athletic world.

George (Punch) Imlach, gen- eral-manager-coach of the Tor- onto Maple Leafs of the NHL, ad no comment to make, He is a non-smoker, and through a spokesman, said because of this he did not feel qualified to make any statement. "When an athlete reaches the professional stage of his career, he is old enough to make deci- sions like smoking, for him- self," said Lew Hayman, gen- eral-manager of the Toronto ue, says. "Smoking is not good for condition and generally doesn't do the athlete any good." Metras uses the "don't do as I do, do as I say" method. He averages about a pack of cigar- ettes a day.
