U.R) Michi gan conservation officers are campaigning to teach hunters to look before they shoot as the annual toll of hunter tragedies rises. Each year hundreds of does, protected by law, are slaughter ed by hunters who fail to iden tify their game before pulling triggers on high-powered rifles. Nervous and excitable nimrods also exact a shocking human toll simply because they shoot first and look later, game war dens declare. Amazingly enough, state rec ords are filled with tragic stories of sportsmen who killed or wounded other hunters because they "mistook" them for deer or bear. With a record number of a quarter-million deer hunters in the woods this year, one hunter was seriously wounded when a companion mistook him for a porcupine. Victim's Fault Often Another was shot in the arm when he raised his hands while wearing white canvai gloves. Andther hunter told state police he thought he saw a pair of deer antlers. While most hunting mishaps are the fault of the shooter, the victim himself often gets the blame. One greenhorn reasoned that if he adorned himself with ant lers he could act as a decoy to some unsuspecting buck. He rigged the horns to his cap and set out into the woods. Five minutes later he was killed with a shot between the eyes. Another foolish hunter don ned a heavy black fur coat. He was instantly killed by a nimrod who was sure he had felled a sizable black bear. Shoots At Truck Property damage also runs high during Michigan's deer sea son. A few years ago a hunter unloaded his automatic rifle at a brown object moving through BOTTLED BEER By the Case Western Beer CASE $2.80to$3.10 Plus small bottle deposit Eastern Beer CASE $3.80 Plus small bottle deposit Roadplane" (!t.A Itlephoto) San Diego's Dia lor leuaersiiip in uio post-war air-minded world Is Urn Koadplane created by Norman V. uaviusoii, a Convuir engineer, low ered by a '1'0-norsepower air-cooled engine, tlie piaiies ati-fool wing spread 01 aelauuuole wings are put oil at airport and mnmcu at uesu tiauoii, rcveruiib to motor car status. the brush. He found he had been shooting at a CCC truck, wound ing several youths. Still another hunter spotted a deer through thick foliage. He fired but the deer remained motionless. The hunter fired again with the same result. Then he blazed away with ah his am munition. The buck still failed to move. Advancing cautiously, the exuberant hunter found he had been shooting at a dead deer already bagged by some other hunter and tied across the hood of a car. His rifle shots had riddled the machine. Game wardens also like to cite the story of two farmers who went out to "shine" deer at night. They drove into the woods with a team of horses and then separated, each wearing a flashlight attached to their caps. A few minutes later, two shots echoed through the stillness. "Oxel," one hunter called to his companion. "Did you get something?" "Yeah," came the abashed re ply, "but it's got a harness on it." The hunter had killed one of his own horses. z Chicago, Dec. 13 U.R)- Two suspects in the lipstick slaying of Frances Brown, 33, an attrac tive ex-Wave, were questioned today as police methodically plodded through half a hundred other clues. Investigators declined to be specific concerning new clues which they said were too num erous to classify in detail. One school of thought in po lice circles was that the killer, who left a note written in lip stick on the apartment wall where the body was found stab bed, shot and beaten, was a wo man. Others suspected that the crime was committed by a lithe but powerful man who swung from a fire escape landing across an open space to enter the six floor apartment. Arthur Dierlamm, 49, an In surance salesman, was scheduled for a psychopathic hearing after police were told that he had boasted of knowing n.ore about the case than police. giTfraternize Hollywood, Dec. 13 (U.R Singer Ella Logan, home from two years of overseas entertain ing, said today that GI's were fraternizing with German wom en who were "Storm Troopers at heart." "German women ire more rabidly fascistic now than the men," she said. A plck-and-shovel engineering job, begun in 1921 by the Penn sylvania Sta.e Works and In volving excavation of 600,000, 000 cubic feet of earth, produced 790 miles of canals and 117 miles of railroad line.

In fact, despite everything the Germans did to drive them crazy, the contrary Frenchmen kept getting saner and saner all the time, alienists insist. Perhaps it was Just one more justification of the resistance movement, but whereas 6.000 Parisians became insane in 1938, the figure dropped to 4,200 in 1941, to 3,250 in 1942 and 2,600 in 1943. Although figures for France as a whole were not available, the trend was report ed to be the same. Germans Grab Liquor One potent reason for the falling off of the insanity inci dence rate was the fact that the Germans grabbed off most of the hard liquor as well as the best wine. Consequently, the number of cases of insanity due to alcoholism dropped from 900 for the Seine department, com prising Paris and vicinity, in 1938, to only 50 in 1943. However, the principal factor In the startling decrease in French insanity was the actual hardships which they suffered, according to one of the leading Parisian psychiatrists, who in dicated it isn't the troubles you have that drive you crazy, but rather the ones you imagine you have when you have nothing to do but sit around and worry about them. Meat Scarce A woman trying to figure out how to feed a family on a ration of one-fifth of a pound of meat a week per person, which the butcher doesn't have, is not nearly as strong a candidate for the booby hatch, the psycholo gists claim, as the woman who leaves the housework to the maid while she idly munches chocolate eclairs and worries about getting fat and whether her husband still loves her. The psychiatrist warned the French government, however, not to start converting the in sane asylums into girls' board ing schools, since the same drop in the insanity rate occurred during the wars of 1870 and 1914, but after the wars were over and the people didn't have anything more to worry about, they imagined bigger and better worries and drove themselves Insane faster than ever. TWO SCARLET FEVER PATIENTS IN COUNTY Two cases of scarlet fever, one reported from Trail and one from Central Point, were listed on the weekly report of com municable diseases from the of fice of Dr. A. Erin Merkel, coun ty health officer. Four cases of mumps were listed, all from Trail, and one case of measles from Medford. One case of whooping cough was also reported for Medford and four cases of chicken-pox were on the list, one from Gold Hill and three from Medford. One case of trench mouth was listed for Medford. TROOP TRAIN RAMMED Chicago, Dec. 13 (U.R) Rail road and navy officials sought today to determine the cause of an accident in which a Pere Mar quette passenger train rammed the rear of a troop train, injur ing nearly 100 naval personnel. The injured, mostly negro sail ors en route from the Bain bridge, Md., base to the naval depot at Shoemaker, Calif., were taken to South Side hospitals for first aid treatment VETS FLOCK HOME Camp Anza, Cel., Dec. 13 (U.R) The debarkation center here today expected a record 100,000 Pacific veterans to pass through this month, Lt. Col. Thomas Meyer, officer in charge, said. The figure for November was 68,000. The St. Louis-San Francisco railroad doesn't go near San Francisco, nor does the Minne apolis and St. Louis railroad go near St. Louis. i etui Piitw of aM5i 1 fit I I N.-vwr x-N ft v i Aw w- nvv xs- M , -i I A Big Thrill for a Llllla Girl I ?;i Seen Cever Cosfumej V 4 iy'r I f i .atltj-V I yy Bntlfunydr...l right down JffSTK n" . to tU "unmentionables"!
