SEATTLE Only two years ago.
when Paul Christman was pitching
quips and footballs for Missouri,
the Tigers were looked upon as

Today the Tigers are back on

Statistical bureau revealed that
Missouri was by far the nations

by hungry wolves in Russia. 1t is
hard to tell whether such stories
are true, but it is known that the
wolves of our continent usually are
afraid of men. Most of them seem
to have learned the danger from
rifles.
The North American timber wolf
is slightly larger than his European
cousin. The fur commonly varies
from gray to black, but sometimes
is white or nearly white.
Travellers in Arctic regions may
see wolves with fur as white as
the snow. Donald Macmillan, the
explorer, tells of watching an Es-
kimo with a seal screen" shoot a
white wolf which walked toward
him.
Two travellers in Alaska we're
camping at a point above the Arc
tic Circle when they saw scores
of large white wolves coming near
The wolves seemed to want to get

in the camp, alive. Raising their
rifles, the men fired into the pack

Answer TO Yesterdays Puzzle

Wolves do not have many friends
among people. We very seldom
hear about their being kept as
"pets." and it is our custom to think
of them as wild, ugly-natured
beasts.
The wolves of Europe are strong
and have coarse fur, which is mainly
gray, though it commonly has a
brownish or a yellowish tinge. In
the open season they most often
hunt singly or in pairs. They prey
on rabbits, hedgehogs, birds, snakes,
rats and field mice. Now and then
they attack a herd of sheep and
NAV kill half a dozen in a single
night.
In most countries of the mainland
of Europe there are some wolves
running about, but Russia is the
land where they are found in great
est numbers. During the winter
they form packs and slay elks and
horned cattle. They are feared by
travellers who pass over the lonely
stretches between cities or villages.
Many stories have been told about
people being set upon and killed
