Man Reports Seeing Cougar MOUNT SHASTA A bona fide case of a maltese-colored mountain lion being seen between Snowman's mil and McCloud Is reported by A. L. (Jack) Roberts. The lion was seen about 8:15 a.m. on March 10 when the Mount Shasta man was returning home from work. ine on - colored animal was seen about five miles west of Mc Cloud where a game crossing often brings wild animals in sight of early morning travelers. At the same spot two years ago Roberts sa a lion that was black alon-; its back, but fadi.ig to the customary inn along Its lower body. A solid black lion was killed not far away a few years ago. Roberts, a nutivo of Northern California, has spent much time mining, prospecting and timber cruising. He reports that the blue lion did not appear scared, but when it saw him it faded back into the brush on the south of the pavement. It was headed north, apparently following the trail of a deer whose tracks could be seen in (he snow. Roberts says any hunter with trained dogs could probably locale the blue lion's trail by searching out the country near where t h c l.orard Ridge Road leaves State Highway 85. a few miles west of McCloud.

' Photo by Kettler Cheers, Jeers Greet Leader LONDON Wl Cheers and cries of "traitor" Monday again greeted Ireland's 75-year-old Prime Minis ter Eamon de Valera as he entered Westminster Cathedral to worship on St. Patricks Day. Scotland Yard detectives and policemen stood by. Cries of "Free the prisoners" went up from the shamrock-wearing crowd outside the big Catholic Cathedral near Buckingham Palace. Hand-clapping and cheering were just as loud as the jeering for De Valera. The protests came from sym pathizers of the Irish Republican Army which De Valera, once its fighting commandant, outlawed when he first came to power in Ireland years ago. De Valera's government opposes the IRA's current campaign of violence to unite the Irish Repub lic with' the counties of Northern Ireland, the latter a part of Brit ain's United Kingdom. De Valera has interned some IRA members De Valera is also dedicated to a united Ireland, but his and other Irish governments of recent years lavor achieving the union by peaceful means. Do Valera, here on a three-day visit, also was cheered and jeered in unruly scenes In Soho Square Sunday. Demonstrators shouted for him to release Ira men held in Ireland.
