Trowbridge, Parks Back Deers , PAGE — Mr. and Mrs. Dick Trowbridge were two deer hunt ers from this section of the coun try who brought back a deer apiece in the exercise of their permits. The first day was fruitless ex cept for the extreme weariness incurred in the 10- to 12-mile tramp without even the sight of a track, let alone a target deer. They were accompanied by * Mrs. Trowbridge’s uncle, Earl <“Scoop”) Parks. The party was able to bag two deer the second o day, almost identical animals. Parks’ kill weighed 99 pounds and the Trowbridges’ beat it by „ four pounds. The third day the Trowbridges brought down a five-point buck, a really fine specimen, weighing in at 175% pounds and listed as a ZVz- to \Vz-year-old deer.

N. D. ICKES, SR.. The Frontier Feature Writer PAGE — Many people leave home for various and sundry rea sons. Families leave home, less often, and for fewer reasons. The Dick Trowbridge family left home recently and in, complete agreement that it was the only thing to do, under the circumstances. They left because an intruder, coming suddenly and unexpectedly, challenged their inclination to co-habitate. Or rather, they were given little choice, under stress of a highly incensed “special sense” that was over-stimulated. The family took refuge with Mr. Trowbridge’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Trowbridge. Each day as he returned to do the barn chores, Dick checked for signs of abandonment. The im possible situation had all the ear marks of becoming a permanent thing and it began to look like Dick’s family had moved in with his parents for the winter. As is the case in all arguments, there were two sides in this case and it was apparent that the in vader had the best of the argu ment. Even though carried on in silence on the part of the intrud er, it was never-the-less effective. Advice, like always, was plen tiful—and free. Finally, in desperation and as a first and last resort, a trap (ap proved) was set — a steel one, cleverly disguised and cov ered to minimize the suspicions of the hunted one. “Squatter’s rights” and posses sion counting nine points in law. all things added up in favor of the intruder. Tear gas, an effective weapon I often used to oust an ambushed fugitive, in this case was in the hands of the opposition. The neighbors have it that the eviction was accomplished with the loss of only one life (that of the intruder) and “that” death was brought about without raising a neighborhood “stink.” Yep, you guessed it. The in truder for whom the Trowbridge gave up their residence was a mserable, little, despicable mem ber of the Cacomistle family known as a civet cat.
