State Aid Asked
WALDPORT. Aug. 39. (AP)
Wild port tried unauoceealully
Sunday to get ride ot lu malodor
ou. whale, the likes of which once
nude General Phil Sheridan faint,
but failed.
According to the lore of the
coast, Sheridan acted as mediator
when two Indian villages quarreled
over division of a whale carcaa
that washed ashore. Each village
was to get half.
He started the division person
ally by driving his bayonet Into
the mammal's mldrift. which, un
luckily was tilled with gas. Phil
fainted but the Indians, whose
olfactory sense waa hardier, piled
atop the dead beast and began to
fight for It. Revived, Sheridan let
them fight.
Sunday the present carcass re
fused to yield to flames as an
effort to burn It was made. Sal
vagers had left too little blubber
on the mountalnoua hulk to feed
the fire.
Desperate townspeople prepared
an appeal to the state board of
health.
