White, principal of the Stanton
high school, believes in bringing
back his fish to substantiate his
story.'1 .- '.'.'.. ' v !
While on a deep sea fishing trip
seven miles off the coast at Ne
tarts Mr. White connected with
a 10-foot' shark of the man eating
type 'that weighed approximately
100 pounds. The fish, he said,
followed a t'pilot" fish right up
to the bait and was dragged on
board the boat without much ef
Once on the decks the captive
began a savage struggle to regain
the ocean "and it was j only When
Mr. White and Elmer Downing,
the son of the late Judge Down
ing, jumped on top of the fish that
they were able to prevent It go
ing over the rail. .
Struggles of the huge fish were
finally stopped when '.some one
handed i a hammer to Mr. Down
ing and several well-directed blows
on the head put a stop- to its
earthly, or rather, briny troubles.
The fish was brought to Salem
yesterday on the running board of
Air. White's car. The nose was
wedged between the fender and
the hood Immediately back of the
light and the tail on the running
boanf back of the door to the
sedan, j . "j
Mr. White has been spending
the last 10 days at the coast with
Mrs. W hite and their son. He also
brought back a -good supply of
fish of the edible variety.
The shark has been placed on
display in the window of Fltta
niarxet on North Commercial.

And the ground must be rotated;

Before the war, all the fiber

traced through five to ten gener
ations back to Russia, and mostly
to the Riga district of that coun
