ranch to be cared lor until ne

"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

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.

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.
"Marineland Carnival" at 7
p.m. on KBES-TV will be an
Easter surprise for enthusiasts
of aquatic high jinks. At Ma
rineland of the Pacific, Lloyd
Bridges and Rosemary Cloo
ney play second paddle board
to comic walruses, playful
porpoises, performing whales,
clowning seals and boxer dogs
who play basketball in the
water.
A few human-type aqua
philes get into the act too
a skin diving champion, a
comedy high-diving group and
two log-rolling exhibitionists.
