Hum bolt's 'Bigfoot' Tracks Seen Again Eureka - Humboldt coun ty's mysterious "Bigfoot" was reported again last week. An orthopedic surgeon and a trapper, who discovered "Bigfoot's tracks" were both convinced that the "Bigfoot" stories might be true. The surgeon, Dr. Charles Johnston of San Jose, Calif., his family, and George Amann, a trapper and friend of the family, were awaken ed during the night while camping in the Bluff Creek region, eighth miles north of Weitchpec. Thinking that the noise that had awakened them was made by some stray animal, the men paid no attention. In the morning, however, they found the fabled prints of "Bigfoot." Only four of the prints were clear, but the men were able to follow the distorted ones upstream. Led to Cave There they saw the tracks again on the far side of the river near a cave. The men were unable to ford the stream without ropes and were unable to understand how "Bigfoot" was able to get across since the river was so deep. Amann said that the prints, 16 to 18 inches in length, were not camouflaged or manufactured in any way. The toe and heel marks were perfect, he said, and the creature walked in a leisure ly way. The stride measured from three and one half to four feet, he said. ' Dr. Johnston said that the prints were definitely the prints of human feet with huge toes. The feet were nar row in proportion to the length and the creature walk ed flatfooted, he said. Explanation The doctor had only one explanation to the mystery. He said that a motorist had approached them the night before and said that he was planning to nap in his car down the road. He parked his car about a block away and apparently went to sleep. The next morning he was gone. Johnston said that at first he thought that the man had gone to the river to swim, but the doctor said that he couldn't believe that the man had feet to match the prints that were found.
