- OMCATS have a reputation for

the feline mascot OF Banks County
Prison near Baldwin, Georgia
This animal demonstrated his right
TO catdomS heavyweight crown re.
Gently when he beat a shaTp-claWed
chicken hawk in spectacular mid
air fight.
The strange scrap started when the
hawk looming down out of the blue
like dive.bOmbcr, sank its talons
into the tabby who was peacefully
doing i'm the prison yard. The bird
apparently mistook the sleeping cat
FOR a chicken but not for long.
According to witnesses, the tomcat
was too startled 10 know Immediately
what had happened and was 10 or Is
feet off the ground before il went
into action. Then the feathers, not
the fur, began to fly.
In less time than ii takes 10 tell il.

and kicked back with its four sharp
Clawcd feet The hawk, however, hung
ON grimly sinking its talons still
deeper into the cats back.
Then the fireworks really began
For minute the two battlers hung
in mid-air
Suddenly the hawk had enough.
IT jettisoned its tough cargo, and flew
Off laundering in the air like a plane
that's been shot tull of flax.
The tomcat did one neat loop-the-
loop and nimbly landed on all fours.
