 Another Nocturnal hunt by trigger-happy groups brought no results. In fact, for the second night running, the hunters failed to shoot each other.
 Those who claimed to have seen Montie described him var iously, but agreed, however, that he has most magnificent tail.
 Proof that Montie is compiling a record was a casualty list of four persons from among those determined to end 10 days of ex- citement occasioned by raids on hen houses and his reported snarling at children coming home from school.

WoIter Buro Will Teach
 Use of Legs

Washington, Nov. 15. (UP)- Walter Bura, 31-year-old retired engineer who sometimes forgets he has no left leg, said today that artificial limbs are pretty good but the trouble is that amputees have not been taught to use them.
 Bura, who is credited with rev. olutionizing the Army's artificial limb program, has moved over to the Veterans Administration as di- rector of the prosthetic appliance service.
 He told a press conference he will make 1t his business to teach the l6.000 amputees of this war how to use their artificial limbs. He also will work toward improved appliances.
 Bura lost his leg above the knee in diving accident five years ago. He swims, dives, skis, skates and fiys an airplane-just as he did as varsity athlete at New York university.
 His artificial leg cost about $300 Except for some minor improve ments he perfected himself he said, the latest Army leg is almost as limp.
 Others can do the same, he said, once they learn the science Of good. He walks with no trace Of walking, which he hopes to teach to amputee veterans through mo- tion pictures, lectures, pamphlets, and individual instruction.

 Still another, William J. Bran dell, 18, lost a chunk of flesh from his thigh when fellow hunter blazed away "at something"
 A long day of expert tracking by District Game Protector Peter K. Filkosky over 300 acres with three deputies disclosed the tracks of Fox, squirrels, rabbits, opossums and skunks.
 Filkosky began his search at the farm of Frank Still who re- ported he fired at "the thing" Sunday night whenit howled in his barnyard. Still was a bit vague on the description of his target.
 The tracking by the warden was the only official move made. The hunting parties mostly are glee- full youngsters armed with every thing from slingshots to war souvenirs.

Our Opportunity to Serve

Somebody observed this week that the
best way 10 serve ourselves during these
distracting times is to serve our own i'm
mediate people. By this he didn't mean
anything like charity begins at home
he simply meant 10 look around you and
find interests and associations worth de-
veloping at home.
Expanding his theme, he talked speci-
fically Of civic interest and the chance
TO serve in purely local sense. He said
this meant identity instead of distraction
and pure loss.
For some people. of course, this is
bringing things entirely too close to
home. It's hard 10 be merely local in a
purely local sense; yet, In an even more
homely sense that's exactly what we
are-as human beings. Eventually we
must live somewhere. and when we do,
it's time TO go 10 work.
Civic sense comes next; and at the
moment it's a valuable acquisition. II
gives you an added sense of purpose
and direction in a world which doesn't
always know. II also means growth and
a sense of permanent association; and
when you eventually get this feeling
that's when you take off your coat and
really go 10 work.
buI All OF lltlSt hl NbuAots ltdho up "
something; and in this case, it's the
opportunity for newspapers - here at
home. anywhere. For. in the long run,
a newspaper is like a human being, too,
and belongs somewhere. Even news
papers take streaks of running off to
greener pastures. but in the end they
know they can't survive unless they do
their work where they belong.
This sense of belonging Is civlc-mind-
edness anC rG presents our opportunity
to serve. We are at home; we recog-
nize our home and in the end by rec
ognizing it sufficiently we get some rec
ognition. too. We espouse new causes;
we support the old. but in the end, too,
we have the satisfaction of knowing that
whatever we did to help was helping
also in the act of helping US
OF course, all of this sounds humble
and newspapermen sometimes despise
the role of home town editor. But there
were great ones, too, who didn't. They
were the ones who saw that roots grow
out from somewhere TO make the final
tree. They were the ones, too, who saw
the weakness in society when the roots
were loose. They were the roots them
selves that helped to make America.

Censorship-American Style

The L. S. Bureau of Censorship has
just gone out of existence, its work hav-
ing been completed.
Although this was an active and pow
erful bureau throughout the war, it was
one of the few wartime agencies which
was built on a foundation Of complete
faith in the American people.
Censorship, for this newspaper and
every other newspaper in the country,
was on an entirely voluntary basis
throughout the war. A code of censor
ship was issued advising US what kinds
of news should not be published, but we
were subjected to no penalties if we vio-
lated the code. Because we were put
on our honor, instead OF being policed,
every newspaper editor took a personal
pride in following tn code
AS a result, prac cally no n0ws which
might have been help. .ul to the enemy

Shopping Deadline

DO your Christmas Shopping Early"
is rather prosaic bit Of advice, but it is
perhaps more important right now than
il has ever been before. For many
people are putting off their Christmas
shopping deliberately this year in the
hope that, within a few weeks, they will
be able to buy gifts like nylon stockings,
vacuum cleaners, scarce electrical APP
pliances, and other items which have
Leen unavailable throughout the war.
Most Of the people who are hoping
to pick up these scarce products at the
last minute are going to be disappointed.
II is obvious that nothing can happen
in less than month TO come near TO sat
isfying the demand
Therefore, we suggest that you make
today the "deadline." To avoid week
before Christmas rush, we believe we
should all make up our minds to the fact
that most things unobtainable today
won't be obtainable before Christmas
and do our shopping now.
Christmas 1916, instead of this Christ
mas, will have TO be the one when we
fill the number / choices on the family
Christmas lists.

Pool Chomp
To PIoy Here

One of the worlds great pocket
billiard players = Andrew Ponzi of
adelphia-comes to Fort Hua-
chuca on Tuesday, May 1, to reveal
the cue skill that has made him
champion of the world on three oc-
casionS. His exhibition will be held
according to a schedule to pe an
nounced later.
Ponzi, one of the most colorful
and entertaining of all billiard
players, won the worlds champion
ship first in 1885, when he defeated
Erwin Rudolph, another star tour
ing military and naval camps, in a
worlds challenge match. He won
the title again in 1910 and captured
it for the third time in 1943.
Just as an indication of how skill
full PonZi is, we can recall that he
holds the worlds record high run
for match game competition, having
run 153 consecutive balls against
Rudolph in their challenge match
in 1885. Several times he had run
more than 200 in exhibition play. In
December Of 1943, defending his title
successfully against a challenge of
Irving Crane, Ponzi had a high run
of 131, and might have continued
except that an impossible leave
compelled him to resort to safety.
In addition to playing pockets
with the best players on the post,
Ponzi will illustrate the fundamen-
tails of good billiard play and open
his bag of billiard tricks when he
appears here. He is one of the best
of the trick shot players-his hand
kercnief trick always drawing loud
applause. In the latter trick, he
conceals the object balls under a
handkerchief and then shoots the
one-ball into a pocket designated
by someone in the audience.
