WHEN A WILD
animal CHARGES

How often you read of the danger
attending the charge of a moose, deer.
or bear, frequently So-caled nature
writer's will tell of malicious attacks on
human beings by bobcats or the Ca
madam lynx, and if YOU are con-
slant reader of such works, and stay
out of the Big Woods, you can easily
get the impression that such animals
will charge on sight, invariably. Moth
ing could possibly he farther from
the truth. the old timer will tell YOU
that no animal will ever charge I'M
til desperately wounded. or cornered
except in the rare cases where they
must fight to defend their young Once
in a while a badly wounded buck will
trample man, occasionally a wounded
bull moose or bear will charge. or
mother bear chase YOU away from her
squalling family. but in % cases out of
hundred these animals will avoid you
if it is possible. And now comes the
story of the only time any wild crea-
ture ever caused me moments worry,
and you can judge for yourself whose
fault it was. One night in early Sep
temher. | found myself about 20 miles
from camp. on the shore of a little
lake that nestles in the heart of big
swamp up in Piscataquis county, and
just before dark ! built a cozy little
lean-tO, with cedar bunk inside, and
gathered a good supply of driftwood
for an al-nght fire, over some Of
which l cooked my supper trout and
broiled partridge. Afterwards l sat
on the edge of my bunk and watched
the sunset, listened to the early night
voices of the wilderness. and finally
lay down and dozed off to sleep. 1t
seemed about five minutes later when
an awful scream just back of the lean
to brought me wide awake, with the
goosef1esh breaking out all over me,
and a cold feeling chasing along my
spine. l lacked shell into my rifle,
and leaned out just in time to catch
the CLINT of pair of flashing cat eyes,
but not being able to catch my sights,
waited for a more favorable opportu-
nifty.
All through the night those blood
curdling screeches came from dozen
quarters in the swamp, and in the grey
of early dawn l made out a pair Of
tufted ears which just cleared a big
fallen log 80 or 90 feet up the ridge
back of my lean-to. Ever so slowly
my rifle came up to position. and
there it rested. waiting, waiting. till
the head should raise just the merest
trif1e. enough to catch the sights.
Motionless, it seemed for ten or
fifteen minutes, | watched the pointed
ears, then the cat raised his head. on
the instant my rife spat lead. and the
cat came tearing down the slope. right
into my second shot. which also failed
to stop him, and the hastily fired third
shot brought him down in a limp heap,
hardly six feet from the smoking gun
muzzle. My first shot raked the top
Of his head, and he ran in the di-
rection he was pointed. SO it could not
be called a deliberate charge, but it
will be long before / forget how that
big cat looked through my rife sights,
as he leaped down toward me that grey
morning in September. up in the wild
erness of Maine.

The 5th annual invitation meet given
by the University of Maine Athletic
Association will be held on May 20.
The inter-scholastic bids fair to be the
best in years. Eight schools are en-
tered with 1oo entries. The meet this
year will be much closer than in any
year before, as Hebron Academy will
not be represented by any men. In
years past Hebron with her large num-
Der of entries, has usually cleaned up
the meet, as her men easily outclassed
those of smaller schools. The schools
entering men are as follows: Bar Har-
Dor High, Bangor High, Coburn CLASH
cal institute, Fort Fairfield High, Hart
land Academy, Maine Central institute,
Old Town High, Orono High and Port
land High
1t is expected that few men from
some of the Massachusetts prep schools
will run exhibition races. but these
schools will not be classed with the
Maine schools.

for Joe Murray, the former Holy Cross
infielder, now with the Scranton. New
York State League club. Van Dyke has
been with Worcester for six years and
has been in the majors twice. He does
not favor the transfer. although he will
receive raise of $50 per month in the
Barrel circuit. He has been offered a
good berth in a shop at Bridgeport and
intends TO accept it. it is reported. The
job calls for him to pitch one game a

When the Maine intercollegiate Ar
hitration Board meets at Boston next
Friday, the one-year eligibility rule
will come in for discussion. AS it now
stands. no matter how long a man has
been out of college. If he enters anoth-
err institution within Maine, he has to
be a resident there one year, before
taking part in athletics. Athletes who
have gone to out-of-state colleges and
then stayed out two or three years are
surprised at the special ruling that
prevents them from taking part in
Maine Intercollegiate contests until
they have been here at least a year.
