Heifer Sets Up House In Uncompleted Sever Decatur, 111.- U.R) A 500-pound heifer, named Stuffy ' set up housekeeping in a sewer Saturday, and all efforts to evict : her failed. y : : Rescuers at first thought Stuffy was a steer, but her owner said the animal is a female,-and contrary at that. ? J Thomas Gallagher, superintendent of the uncompleted sewer ? project, called off attempts to dislodge Stuffy until Monday, when a full work crew will be available. ... i Happy In Sewer i: Xi Gallagher said Stuffy seems happy in the sewer and has y, plenty of hay and water for the week end. The sewer pipe is four feet in diameter so there is enough room for Stuffy to turn A around in. Stuffy, all 500 well-fed pounds of her, wandered into the 'lend of the sewer about a mile and a half west of here Friday, ij She was discovered meandering along a half-mile stretch of the S; newly-installed pipe by construction workers . The red and white heifer apparently was contented until ; "rescue" operations began. Armed with pitchforks, Robert and James Spotes were the first to tackle the problem. But Stuffy bowled them over, and 3 they retreated with haste. f A little later, Paul Morgan of Dalton City climbed down . y Into the sewer. Morgan, who thought Stuff y . was a-little fellow, met the beefy animal head-on. That was enough for him. ; -5 Allergic To People ? ... . Another trip into the damp sewer . this morning revealed that Stuffy is allergic to people and has a violent distaste for f flashlights. . ' She apparently wants to live like a mole. ' y Meanwhile, Ernest Florian, Stuffy's owner, rounded up the ' rest of his herd to prevent them from straying in after Stuffy. i The open end of the sewer lies in an excavation on Florian's pasture. Gallagher could not explain how Stuffy knocked over an v obstruction placed at the end of the sewer to prevent just such a problem from arising. , o ' ; Reds Refuse Any ; Interviews With !
