The three-acre island, carry ing four or five large trees, came visiting from the west shore of Kettle Moraine Lake. Residents turned out in motor boats Tuesday and dragged it off the beach. They moored it 15 feet from the shore, but a stiff 30-mile-per hour wind sty mied further efforts to get rid of the island. Further plans to tow the is land somewhere else were post poned until Sunday. The island had floated aim lessly about the lake for a time after breaking loose from the west shore 10 days ago. Wind and waves eventually pushed it up on the beach of one of the resorts which ring the lake. Resort owners complained that the wandering Island was a threat to. their beaches as long as it was allowed to drift aground at one point and then another.
