"Smokey became so fa mous as the result of having his picture and story in hundreds of newspapers thai requests came through out the country from peo ple who wanted him. How ever, all of them were turned down flatly until he could regain his health. In June of 1950 he was donated to the United States Forest service as a living sym bol for forest fire prevention and was given a permanent home in the zoo at Washing- Ion, DC. Back in Capitan the citi zens are proud to proclaim their town as the birthplace of Smokcy Bear and have con- strucicd a rustic, log cabin Smokcy Bear museum i com memoration of the tiny, foot burned cub. The museum op ened in 1960, with admission tree, and mere were over 13,000 visitors during the fol lowing summer season. "Maintaining and operating -the museum is a worthy proj ect undertaken in the public interest for educational and conservation purposes, but it I has become quite burdensome on the people of Capitan. Any contributions to -his cause sent to Mrs. Virgil Wallace, president of the museum, would be greatly appreciated. "A more detailed account of the rescue and rehabilitation of Smokey Bear is give- In an article of mine, ""he Whimper Heard Across the Nation,' in the September, 1961, issue of American Forests magazine." While Mr. Darker was New Mexico Stat Game Smokey Bear? There have been many claimants to the title, many mythical bears, many rumors. Ulliott S. Bark er, executive secretary of the New Mexico Wildlife and Conservation ass o c i a t i o n, writes to clear up the confu sion. "There was a mythical amokey near beiore ins real one,'' Mr. Barker ex plains, "but I 'assure you. 'Our Smokey' is the real thing. "He was found during the disastrous fire of 1950 in the Lincoln National forest near Capitan New Mexico. The 5 pound cub was clinging to the charred trunk of a pine tree to escape the dreadful heat of the smoking forest floor when his itiful whimp ering attracted the attention of a game warden in charge of one of the many crews of fire-fighters. His fur was singed and the soles of his Instructor Dutch Fjrfan Duncan Discusses ! Cold War Fight "The outstanding success of the President's Peace Cnro; program is a vivid demonsu.. tion of the kind of battles that j must be won in the Cold I War," Robert B. Duncan, i speaker of the Oregon House and candidate for the Demo cratic nomination for Con gress for the Fourth district, told the Merlin PTA last week. "Our vast expenditures in time, talent and money to de velop weapons of war were and are necessary, but in so doing we have, in the past overlooked the extreme im portance of a most potent weapon. That is the face to face demonstration to our neighbors in underdeveloped countries of our concern for their welfare by providing them with the energy and talents of our young people," Duncan said. Warden in charge of game, fish and predatory control in Vermejo Park. 360,000 acre privato game preserve in New Mexico's beautiful mountain region, h gath ered material from nature's own "children of the wild" for his book, "When the Dogs Bark 'Treed' ". He is also the author of "Beatty's Cabin" in which he talks about the Pecos high coun try that has been an inti mate part of his life. "I was born at Moran, Tex as," Mr. 'Barker continues, "and immigrated with my parents overland in covered wagons in 1889 to New Mex ico where we settled on a mountain ranch 25 miles from Las Vegas. I was 'hill billy' raised and learned early to hunt and fish, c mp and take pack-in trips into the wilder ness country. 'Throughout the years I have continued my work with wildlife and related sub jects and to hunt big game. My wife, Ethel, and I pack-in to the wilderness to camp and fish and ride the trails, as we have been doing the past 50 years." On the Air By ELEANOR WIESE The story of Jesus Christ has been told in several ways the last two Sundays on tele vision by pantomime and dance in "Laudcs Angelii," by drama as the pardoned thief seeks out the story of t h e Galilean in "Give Us Barab has," and by paintings of the masters in "He Is Risen." Each approach has been moving and powerful television at its best. Today Christ's life is pic tured yet a different way in "Way of the Cross" at 5 p.m. on KMED-TV. Filmed in the Holy Land without the use of actors, the program shows the scenes of Jesus' life, begin ning with His birthplace in Bethlehem and culminating in his last moments on earth as He bore the Cross through Jerusalem to Calvary. The camera pictures the places He saw: the Sea of Galilee, the River Jordan, the Mount of Olives, the Garden of Gethse mane and other landmarks. Alexander Scourby narrates.
