DEER, ALREADY DEAD, ANSWERS
 HUNTERS CALL
Biq Buck, Stone Cold, Re- spends Immediately w.
 Johnson Whistles

After a four-day deer trip in the devils club and blueberry thickets of Point Retreat, Brownie-the- Bar Der was back in town today with a Gargantuan tale which makes the Pied Piper of Hamlen look like pe-eyed piker com pared with Wayne Johnson, the hero of Brownies story.
 The Piper, you remember, was the medieval gent who whistled the rats away. Johnson is the gent who was sitting peacefully on the bank of steep slope Sunday, making noises calculated to attract deer, only to have one bounce over the bank and drop dead at his feet [ "S'help mep says Br own ie :. Wayne is sitting there with his deer call, making a few plaintive notes and wishing to heck he'd stayed home out of the rain. Then this big buck bounds through the thicket and rolls over in front oi him, colder than Mendenhall.'
 Johnson, not one to look a gift deer in the molars. promptly cleaned the. buck, with Brownies aid, and packed it back to the Point Retreat Lighthouse, where they found the other members of their party, Lou Hudson and Woody Triplett, slightly downcast.
 T jump this beautiful buck in thicket up the hill" Triplett ex- plains mournfully. and aim right between his horns so as not to spoil the head. I notice one of his horns is slightly defOrmed, like a shepard's. crook. I fired and down goes the buck and lean my gun against a tree and walk over to cut his throat. But the darned animal hops up and dashes away. All I find of him is a piece of fur this little triangle patch from where my bullet creased him.
 And the deer breaks right by me and I miss my shot" Lou adds. What lousy luck!''
 This is where the light dawns suddenly Brownie explained to- day. Sure enough, Johnson's deer las a hook in its horn and the patch of fur fits neatly on his head betwee nthe horns. That deer
 just didn't know when he was dead.' And since Johnson packed the animal down the mountain-well, you guess who eats venison steaks tonight.

Republican legislators split today in
their efforts to obtain more jobs
for the COP.
Sen. Joseph A. Baldwin. chairman
OF the committee on senate bust
ness. was at odds. with Sen. Earl
Munshaw, COP whip, over an opin-
ion offered by Attorney General
Herbert J. Rushton.
Rushton declared that the SEN
ate could legally reject appoint
ments made by Gov. Murray q.
Van Wagner. a Democrat, and le-
gally accept those made by former
Gov. Luren d. Dickinson before the
latter stepped out of office.
Baldwin was rather happy over
the opinion but Munshaw stated
lie did not believe the opinion was
necessary and that the COP would
not attempt to strip Van Wagner
of his right to appoint his own key
men.
Baldwin indicated the opinion
might be used as a threat or as a
lever to obtain less important jobs
for Republicans.
