    Boston-Born Matador Rates
Spanish Critics7 Remarks
Madrid UR) With a little
bit of luck and more persever
ance Porter Tuck, Boston's 23-year-old
blond, may be the young
man destined) to equal or even
urpass Brooklyn's Sidney
Tranklin, th Bostonian's one
time teacher, in the art of bull
fighting. o This, at least. Is the consensus
of Madrid's leading bullfighting
critics, even though the critics
refrained from mentioning
Franklin.
Critics, usually harsh on any
foreigner who ventures into the
strict confines of the bullfighting
profession, were unanimous in
their praise for the Boston lad
after his first appearance in Ma
drid's Vista Alegre bullring on
May 22.
Tuck received two gorings. He
was badly shaken. This impress
ed the critics. Good Spaniards
that they are, they felt no for
eigner can quite come up to
Spanish valor, but in the case
of Tuck they remarked that per
'haps he had too much.
Critic Rubiera, writing in Ar
tfjba, devoted more than half a
column to Tuck's May 22 pre
sentation and entitled it "The
valor of the Boston Elond."
,"The merit of this young man
resides in the fact that, knowing
he was seriously gored, he insist
ed on bullfighting he gives us
the impression that he may pos
sibly continue successfully to re
main in the bullring," Rubiera
wrote.
Critic Lucas Herrero, writing
In Ya, said:
"The Gne from Boston demon
strated fully that he has more
than the needed valor and de
cision for .this dangerous profes
sion . . . He has rudimentary
knowledge, he has a repertorie,
lie has 'aficion' (desire), he has
the will, and he has the valor.
With luck, constancy, and more
perfection he may get some
where." Cric Rafael de Vega wrote
in the evening paper, Madrid:
There was curiosity to see
Porter Tuck, the Boston Blond,
a young man who revealed un
common valor and possesses pro
per theory even though it is not
yet well developed. But these
are logical defects of a beginner.
If he continues with the same
valor, it is possible that in the
future, his work, which at pres
ent is on the rough and unpolish
ed side, will become cleaner and
more aesthetic. For the time be
ing he has earned himself the
estimation of the public."
Tuck said he was born in Bos
ton's Beacon Hill section, but
his parents presently resided in
Hartsdale, Mass. Tuck's other
profession is painter, an abstract
painter.
He first came to Spain in 1953
and met matador Sidney Frank
lin in Sevila. Franklin at that
time directing a bullfighting
academy in Alcala de Guadaira,
enrolled Tuck and taught him
the fundamentals. Since then
Tuck has fought three-year-old
bulls in Casablanca, Jerez, La
Linea and other provincial towns
and capitals.
Everything was going well for
him here on May 22 when a
guest of wind lifted his cape and
left him in the open. It was
then that the bull charged.
Recovering from his two horn
wounds in Madrid's bullfighters'
sanatorium, Tuck is already
thinking of his next corrida, a
second appearance in Vista
Alegre bullring.
SKUNK STROLL
New Salem, N.D. (U.R) A
skunk strolled across U.S. High
way 10 near here. Robert Ferd
erer, 15, j of Mandan, driving
along the highwayf slowed down
to avoid the animal. George
Rupp, Bismarck, in a second car,
bumped into the rear of Ferd
erer's car. Ferderer was treated
for an injured neck muscle. The
skunk escaped unharmed.

Palo mar Observatory
Completes First Part
Of Huae Skv Atlas
Washington (U.R) The Pal-
omar Observatory in California
has completed the first section of
a Sky Atlas that someday will
answer many of the unsolved
mysteries of the Universe, ac
cording to the National Geo
graphic Society.
The work has been going on
for seven years. When it is com
pleted in about another year
astronomers will study it for an
swers to such questions as:
Is the universe of uniform
structure? Did it have a definite
beginning in space and time?
Does it have an end, or does it
extend outward endlessly? Could
the sun itself ever blaze out as
a nova, instantly burning to cin
ders the earth and other planets
of the solar system? A nova is a
star which suddenly Increases its
light and energy output tremendously.
1758 Phoiomaps
The entire atlas will consist of
1758 phofomaps. It will reveal
millions of new stars, galaxies
and systems of galaxies far out
in space.
Dr. Lee Dubridge, president, of
the California Institute of Tech-
will be " an astronomical Bible
for 100 years."
For those who want a copy in
their library, the price is $2000.
So far, Palomar observatory
has photographed about three
quarters of the sky to an unpre
cedented depth in space of 600,
000,000 light years. Nine light
years is six trillion miles.
Many Never Before Seen
The photomaps were made by
Palomar's 48-inch big Schmidt
telescope. Many of the space reg
ions photographed have never
been seen before by astronomers.
The sky survey has shown up
thousands of galaxies similar to
the Milky Way. Before the sur
vey, only about three dozen such
galaxies were known.
BALANCE DUE
Ogden, Kan. (U.R) The burg
lar who took' four half pints of
whiskey from an Ogden liquor
store was thirsty and honest
to a point. In place of the miss
ing liquor he left four crumpled
$1 bills. But there was no pay
ment for the big window glass
he smashed with a rock to gain
entrance.

Story in National
Magazine Written
By Local Sportsman
The August issue of Argosy
magazine contains an article by
John Day, Medford rancher and
sportsman, based on one of his
trips into Alaska to hunt bear.
It is entitled "King-Size Kodiak."
The article is illustrated with
three pictures taken by Day dur
ing the trip to Kodiak island.
Requires Skill, Patience
The Medford man has hunted
in Alaska on numerous occa
sions, and in addition to shoot
ing several Alaskan Brown bear,
has taken hundreds of colored
pictures and much film. Day re
ports that to photograph wild
animals successfully requires
even more skill and patience
than shooting them, and he finds
the camera work more reward
ing than the hunting.
His photography equipment
now includes an Arriflex, battery-driven
German made movie
camera rarely found in this
country.
Trophy for Museum
On a recent trip into Alaska
Day killed an Alaskan Brown
bear which was presented to
George Barbey, ex-president of
Switzerland, for a museum of
natural history in Geneva. The
Swiss.who is spending six months
in Alaska collecting material for
the museum, happened to be in
the same region on the Alaskan
peninsula where Day was hunt
ing, and a chance meeting be
tween the two men resulted in
the gift for the museum.
Barbey, well known mountain
climber and a member of Rotary
International, hopes to acquire

Highway Trailer Uses
Given By Engineers
East Lansing, Mich. (U.R)
Two Michigan State College ag
ricultural engineers have come
up with some farm uses for used
highway trailers.
William H. Friday and James
S. Boyd said the big vans can
be put to use as grain storage
units, tool sheds, shops, small
farm machinery .storage spaces,
or even , as housing units for
transient labor. Flatbed trailers
serve as excellent bridges over
drainage ditches.
