This, he added, would not inter-

Curious Cow Caught in Grader
Aqqruyutes AIIentoWnFir Firemen

A COW got its head stuck in
a road grader yesterday and
Scraped up considerable resent
ment among volunteer f1remen.
The incident took place on a
farm in Southern Prince Georges
County, but it was the Bethesda
Chevy Chase Rescue Squad that
freed the animal, although the
farm is directly across Allentown
road from the Allentown Fire
Department.

Sanford of the Allentown de-
partment.
"You can put in the paper
that Prince Georges firemen are
fuming," he said.
Adding to the irritation is a
suspicion that it was a fifth COL
umn at work. An Allentown fire.
man is suspected of calling the
squad from the next county,
Chief Sanford said.
But the cow was duly untan-
gled.
Assistant chief Robert w. Gre
minis of the rescue squad de-
scribed it as a 600 to 700-pound
Black Angus valued at $500.
He said the animals head was
trapped between rods on the
grader four or five hours before
his squad arrived. 1t was baWl-
ing frantically and threshing so
the squad could not blanket it
with asbestos and then use an
acetylene torch to cut the rod.
So they tied up the COW with
festoons of rope and went to
work with bolt cutters. hammer
and chisel. The beast was freed
in about Is minutes.
The farm, at 1881 Allentown
road, is owned by Fred L. Craw-
ford, a Michigan congressman
for 18 years. He was defeated
