YOUNG DEER CHARMED BY
MUSIC IN TYRRELL COUNTY

COLUMBIA - Two young deer
paying no heed to the danger and
threat of hunting season frolicked
beside NC "a Highway Saturday
about a mile from Frying Pan fork.
So absorbed in their play, they
paid no attention to the approach
of the car driven by Mrs. A. B,
Hopkins, Jr. She stopped to watch
their antics and was particularly
interested in their indifference to
traffic, she informed, they seemed
so tame. She noted that the music
from her radio seemed to draw
them towards the car
"Others stopped to watch them
before they decided to cross the ca
nal," said Mrs. Hopkins "and they
could still be heard playing in the
bushes.y
