Trapping Profitable
Sideline for Farmer
Powers Lake, N.D. (IP) Trap
ping is a profitable sideline for
William Lucy, who operates a
1,240-acre farm northeast of
here. He sold nearly $1,200
worth of pelts during the past
year. . .
"We make about $700 from
trapping each winter," Lucy
said.
The secret of profitable trap
ping, he added, is not to trap too
close.
"We leave quite a few musk
rats as food for the mink," he
explained. "We set our traps
about a mile apart." x

Colby College Bell
One ; of: Most-Traveled
Waierville.Me. IIP) Colby
college students boast one of
the world's most-traveled col
lege bells.
The old bell, which was cast
at the Paul Revere Foundry in
1824, was once shipped by stu
dents to Harvard ' University
where students shipped it to the
University of Virginia.
The Virginia students dispatch

ago, before naval uniforms be
came common, the Blazer's fashion-conscious
captain outfieed
his crew in blue jackets with
brass buttons.

ment, rather than a dismissal, to
permit a Grand Jury to investi
gate how, when and by whom
the two key witnesses, both serv
ing federal prison terms, were
intimidated.
