MONDAY, DECEMBER 13. 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE SEVEN Hunt Party Fails To Bag Wolves PLANO, Tex. Ml Mr. Wolf out foxed the hunters yesterday. They went after him 375 strong ill a search plotted and staged with military precision. They shot up me countryside. The bag: two foxes, two owls, a squirrel and around a dozen rab bits. No wolves. Timber wolves have been kill ing sheep around Piano, IB miles northeast of Dallas. A half dozen farmers have lost 10 to 25 head the past year and a half. The hunt ers, mostly from Dallas, heard about it and organized an assault. The day broke chill and cloudy, and they assembled a, the Miller & Son feed store here. Many crossed the street 'o Murrell's Hardware to buy shotgun shells. Roy Murrell came down to open up for the event. Ill the feed store, farmers John Merrlman and Dexter Prince stud ied a penciled map of the area and plotted strategy. "We'll cross Al britton's Bottom, then go up here," Prince suggested. Outside, he told the milling hunters, "One last statement you are going at your own risk." A couple of miles north of town, the hunters lined up in a large open field and, at a rifle shot sig nal, started off through oaks, elms and hackberries in a long, strag gling file. The hunt took up most of the morning. They saw lots of critters. A cot tontail leaped into view and, as guns blasted, zig-zaggei! off in ter ror. This one escaped. Moments later, however, the only woman along Mrs. Joseph App, of Dallas shot a rabbit. Reed Hoover shot both owls. Several said they got shots at wolves. None was successful.
