.Bend Man "Trims" Texan
Delake, Ore., March 4 IP A
22-foot sea monster with a body
resembling a cow and a long,
tapering, many-pronged tail wash
ed up on the beach today and
threw this coastal community in
to a tizzy of excitement.
About 200 people testified that
they saw the "monster" before
it was caught in storm-driven
waves and washed back to sea.
They estimated that the "thing"
weighed somewhere between 1,000
pounds and a ton.
"It had gray and white feathers
on its underside, just like a
chicken," said Mrs. Bea Allum.
Phineas Cheadle, Portland, one
of the men who saw the mon
ster, said he kicked it as it lay
on the beach.
"It shivered and shimmied for
about a minute."
The body was described' as
three or four feet thick, and
about four feet long. The long
main tail extended about 18 feet.
Eight subsidiary "tails" slanted
off the main tail, according to
witnesses. Each of the prongs
were from seven to eight feet
long, except one which was about
Vl, they said. ;
Washed Back to Sea
The "monster" was so big that
it couldn't be lifted by hand. A
wrecking car was summoned to
haul the beast farther up1 the
beach. But before it could be
completely salvaged, the crew
was forced back by high seas and
soon the monster dead or alive
was washed back to sea.
Forty or fifty resident of De-
lake stood vigil along the strand
in tne nope mat tne tnmg
would wash back again.
A coast guard chief petty offi
cer who saw it said it might
have been a blanket fish which
were encountered occasionally by
naval vessels in the south ra
cif ic.
Local amateur cameramen took
pictures of the monster before
it was washed away.
At one point, a beach crew put
a line around the monster. But
the pounding waves tugged the
creature so hard that the line
was snapped.
Lyman Howe, Delake real
estate man who helped lasso the
monster, said the covering on the
body "looked like a cross between
feathers and goat s hair. He said
the covering gave the impression
of feathers because it was so
heavily matted.
"The body was like a giant tad
pole," said Mrs. Allum, "It re
sembled a cow in,, winter after
the long hair has grown In."
Nobody got a look at the face
if there was one before the
body was swept out to sea.
