 Only one misfortune occurred.

With the radio station off the air, there was no means of publishing the change in plans so many kids miss ed the display entirely

SITKA, Alaska, July 5.-The clos ing of Station KEW by the FCc this week came as a shock to Sitka During the few months the station operated the people had come tc rely on it not only for entertain ment but as a. source of informa- tion and means of reaching the entire population at a moments notice Most important, the station was in fact, the nerve center of the town It built up and maintained a community spirit that would te unequalled anywhere. Any com munity project that called for the cooperation of all was easily successful when plugged by sta ton KEW.
 It is rumored that the station will be able to reopen only by ob- taining a new license, permitting it to broadcast over a wider area, As this required a fund beyond the reach of the present owners, there are several unccordinated move ments afoot to do something" As an example Of how badly the sta- ton is missed-the people wanting to act have as yet been unable to get together and nothing has been ione
 People have long been talking of their desire to do something for the stations benefit to the town. This is their grand opportunity. Something will undoubtedly be done We need that station, as everyone admits. All that is needed is an organizer to assure concerted action.
 Jim Brightman andn Walt Welch, sole owners of KEW, have earned the all-out effort of every member of the community to get the sta- ton back in operation as soon as is possible.

es in the Bluffton hunting area the
past few days.
Dallas Yoakam shot a red fox
early Sunday morning near Lafay-
cite and Donald Harmon from Gilboa
bagged a red fox in the John Hab-
begger woods near Bluffton last
Wednesday.
Yoakam bagged his animal by fol-
lowing trail. Knowing there were
few pheasants on his farm he reason
ed foxes must be the cause. A heavy
snow fell the night before so he set
out to look for tracks and ran across
the trail of a red fox on his neigh
bors farm, the Dave Harshey place.
Luck was with with him and after
short time he sighted the animal
Looping along ahead of him. Yoakam
drew a bead with his % and bagged
the animal while it was running at
distance of 100 feet. Yoakam says
the incident happened on his seth
birthday.
Harmon was one hunter of a group
of seven men who trailed their fox
miles and finally located the animal
up a tree.
The fox had crawled into the base
of sloping hollow tree and had
worked its way 35 feet up into the
trunk from the ground. Harmon
crawled up the tree and killed the
animal by shooting down at it
through a hole some distance above
the fox.
With him in the party were Archie
and Harley Diller, Bob DilIer, Ken
meth Diller and Evan and Don Stein
er.
The animal was treed in the Sam
Bixel woods. Earlier in the afternoon
the group accompanied by other
hunters jumped three foxes at one
time. Many shots were fired but the
animals all escaped except the one
which chose to crawl up the tree.
Many foxes were seen and several
others killed in the Bluffton hunting
area since the recent snow fall.
A. E. Kohl spotted a fox near the
Ebenezer church and Mrs. George
Swank saw a fox standing on the
bridge near the north end of the

March-the month of rough and
boisterous weather is at hand -
named after the ancient war god
Mars.
Legend has it that Mars was the
son of Jupiter and Juno, the king
and queen of the gods and was gem
orally represented in shining suit
of armor, with plumed helmet on
his head, spear in one hand and a
shield in the other.
His chariot was driven by the god
dess of war, Bellona, who also
watched over his safety in battles
which were constantly raging on
earth.
During the great fight between the
gods and giants to decide who was
to rule the world, Mars was cap
tured by two of the giants who
bound him day and night, the legend
account narrates.
After a year of captivity he was
freed by clever god Mercury who
succeeded in loosening the chains so
silently that the giant heard no
sound.
Mars was loved by Venus, the
goddess of beauty, but wishing to
keep their love a secret from the
other gods, they met only at night
and Mars appointed his servant
Alectryon to keep watch and to call
him before the sun rose, as he did

not wish Apollo, the sun god, to
see him.
One night Alectryon fell asleep
and neglected to warn the lovers
and Apollo saw them from his char
lot. He caught them in a net or
steel and held them prisoners while
the other gods ridiculed them.
As soon as he was free, Mars,
who was angry with Alectryon for
failing his responsibility, changed
him into a cock and condemned him
to give warning every day of the
suns rising.
During wartime, the Romans turn
ed to Mars for help and protection.
Before setting out to battle, the Ro.
man general went into the temple OF
Mars and touched the sacred shield
with the point of his spear and sup
plicated Mars, watch over u.s."
The training ground of the Ro-
man soldiers was called Campus
Martius (the field of Mars) in hon
or of the god of war and it was
commonly believed that Mars him.
self led their army into battle and
helped to give them the victory.
Thus when the Romans came to
designate the third month they could
find no name more appropriate for
the blustery and boisterous time of
the year than the name patterned
after the war.

ed fox hound which aids them con-
siderably in their hunting.
In addition to the apparent influx
of foxes in the area two wolves were
shot by hunters near Ottawa in Put
nam county.
The two animals had been ravag-
ing live stock and a party Of 40 hunt
ers with the aid of an airplane and
two fox hounds tracked them down.
: A former Bluffton man "Slim"
Westrick bagged one of the wolves
and Ruhl Burkhart shot the other.
Both men live at Continental.
Most counties in the state pay a
bounty on fox from $500 up to $500
Many clubs add an additional bounty
The Bluffton Sportsmen's Club pays
$500 to members who have been in
good standing for at least two sue
cessive years.
No bounty is authorized in this a.
rea for wolves.
