Out to Beltsville after working a while in the yard.  Had lunch & supper there.  Couches, Paul Miller, Carl Shoemaker & wife, Cecil Del[[?]] & Barre[[?]], Jud Kline, Dave Alyward, Hugh Terkines, & Ernest Walker had another picnic.  I hiked around over the place until I was all in but believe we accomplished a real job in selling the refuge program.
