Golden Eagle Gets a
 Rude Welcome In Chicago

CHICAGO lR - Golden eagles are supposed to live in craggy mountain retreats, not amid the glass and steel of big cities.
 But Friday, golden eagle at tackled Penny, a lovable month old puppy.
 The bird, perched regally atop a south side roof, spotted Penny, spread it's enormous wings and sWooped down upon the mild hammered city pup.
 Penny wheeled, tore for cover and almost made it, but the giant bird struck and dug it's sharp claws into the dogs back.
 A passing policeman rushed to Penny's aid and fired his pistol at the bird The shot missed Penny's owner, Fred Goodman, grabbed a broom lying on the side walk and did a brief, but furious battle with the bird.
 The graceful eagle - doubtless unaccustomed to rude city ways dropped the pup and ascended to it's lofty perch once more.
 The city folks then called the Lincoln Park Zoo. A zoologist raced to the scene, pumped a single tranquilizer shot from his special gun into the bird and carted it away.
