fine looking fellow. But he was
member of the Hawk family. There
could be no doubt about it this time
One good look at his hooked bill and
great claws was enough to settle that
question in the minds of all who saw
him. So there was no welcome for
him when he first arrived at the Green
Forest. He wasn't wanted there.
"Just as If we honest people haven't
enough worries as it is," grumbled
Peter as he watched the stranger fly
ing toward the Big River "I suppose
now We'll have to keep our eyes open
for him as well as for Redtail and old
Whitehall"
Danny Meadow Mouse quite agreed
with Peter. SO did all the birds.
Reddy Fox and Old Man Coyote felt
much the same way toward the stran-
ger, only for very different reason.
THAT fellow will make our hunting
all the harder" grumbled Reddy to
Granny as they watched the stranger.
"The more there are to hunt, the hard
er the hunting. Somebody ought to
send him back where he came from"
Granny was watching the stranger
sharply, and pretty soon she caught
a CLEAN of white as he turned In the
air. Granny gave little sigh Of sat-
isfaction. Don't worry" said she to
Reddy. II guess we can spare all that
fellow can take from us" Then she
changed the subject and left Reddy to
wonder why she seemed SO little con-
cerned about this newcomer. AS for
the stranger, he paid no attention to
anyone. II he noticed that he was
given no welcome he apparently didn't
care. He just simply went about
his business and didn't meddle In
the affairs of anyone else. After
while his neighbors noticed that
his business seemed always to take
him In the direction of the Big
River. He never visited the Old Or
chard. He never hunted in the Green
Forest. He never clrcled about over
the Green Meadow, as did Whitehall
the Marshhawk In short. he never
bothered anyone. There wasn't SIN
gle thing that could be brought against
him save that he was a member of the
Hawk family. But that was enough.
If he was member of the Hawk fam
lily he was an enemy to be feared and
hated In the eyes of Peter Rabbit and
Danny Meadow Mouse and all the 9TH
er little people who fear Redtail and
Whitehall.
1t wasn't until Peter saw surpris-
ing thing happen at the Smiling Pond
that he learned the truth about the
stranger, which was that there wasn't
the least thing In the world to fear
from him. And until that time the
stranger was a neighhor who wasn't
wanted Afterward--well, afterward
things were different.

Neither the Journal-Courier nor
Roger Sherman big pin teams en-
tered in the American Bowling
Congress here yesterday, rolling IN
the five-man events, entered the
money class. Neither was able to
reach the 200 mark, which is
considered only fair, in this classic
of the alleys.
The Journal-Courier team got
away to bad start, and with the
exception of the second game failed
to come up to expectations. After
opening with a poor 1853 game, Joe
Porto hit his stride and. hit for 21S
and 222 to lead the newspaper del
egation. His 1hree-string total of
500 was easily the best of the team.
and the nearest to him was Lob
dell, who rolled steadily to hit 545.
Garrah started in great fashion,
but fell away at 142 to close the
series.
The Roger Sherman team turned
in a fine total of $500, consider
ing that two of the members,
Monck and Newton. were rolling
in their first national tournament.
Charlie johnson was the high
scorer for the team. with a total Of
SIS. His 221 game, which was his
second effort of the evening, was

Starting this noon, the bowlers
of both teams will take part in
