Mrs. Kennedy's Cards
Become q Best-SeIIer

for the company to print more
cards in time for Christmas
even if that were in good taste
1t is possible. however, that
the cards may be offered again
in future years.
Mr.. Knickerbocker declined
to say how many cards had
been sold or printed, but he
did say that the total sales
would be more than a million.
Hallmark's net profit from
the sale of the cards will be
turned over to the cultural
center. Contributions from re-
tailerS will be on a voluntary
basis so it is impossible at the
moment to estimate what the
total income to the center
will be.
The cultural center office
here has begun receiving an
increasing volume Of mail from
people in various parts of the
country inquiring where the
cards can be purchased.
Contributions Included
An unusual volume Of mail
also began coming in today in
response to the suggestion that
the center be dedicated as a
memorial to Mr.. Kennedy.
Not only are we getting a
lot of mail" said a spokesman
for the center, but there's a
contribution in each envelope"
On Wednesday at 2::30 pm,
the executive board of the CEN
ter's board of trustees will
meet at the center's office, 170l
Pennsylvania avenue NV, to
discuss changes that will re-
suit from the change in adj
ministrations. One of the ma
jor items on the agenda will
be the proposal to build the
$50 million center as a memo
rial to the late President.

The two Christmas card,
designed by Mrs. Jacquelint
Kennedy have become the big
gest best sellers in their price
range in the history of greet
ing cards. a spokesman for the
Hallmark Co. said today.
The cards are still available
in Washington stores but they
are already sold out in some
parts of the country. the firm
said.
Proceeds from the sale OF
the cards will go t. the Ma
tional Cultural Center, which
has been proposed as a me-
mortal to the late President
Kennedy.
Some Statistics
THE cards have done ex-
tremely well better than
any boxed Christmas cards
we've ever published" said
Conrad Knickerbocker, who has
been handling relations be-
tween Hallmark and the cul-
tural center.
They have already sold six
times as well as the average
card in their price range and
four times as we'll as the best
seller in that range" he said.
Two cards are offered in
boxes of Is. which sell for 81
One is titled The Gift of the
Magi," which has proved
more popular than the
other, titled Glad Tidings."
President Kennedy's death
apparently has caused an in
creased demand for the cards,
Mr.. Knickerbocker said, and
this probably will mean that
the cards will sell out sooner
than had been expected.

Leoni LEADING
In Venezuela
Betuncourt Choice
Widens Margin

CARACAS, Venezuela, Dec. 2
(AP) Raul Leoni, candidate
of Venezuela's anti-Castro gov
eminent. surged into a strong
lead today in the tabulations
for the presidential election.
With unofficial tabulations
one-third completed, Mr.. Leoni
held a margin of nearly 10000
votes over his closest rival.
The mounting vote for Mr..
Leoni appeared to indicate re-
sounding popular support for
the strong stand outgoing Pres
ident Romulo Betancourt has
taken against Prime Minister
Fdel Castro's Cuban regime. In
recent days, the Betancourt
government called for strong
measures against Mr.. Castro,
including armed action if
necessary, by the United States
and the nations of Latin
America on the ground that
Cuba was trying to export its
revolution to the hemisphere.
Setback to TerrOrists
A big victory by Mr.. Leoni,
candidate of Mr.. Betancourt's
Democratic Action Party, would
hand the Castroite terrorist
underground in Venezuela its
second major setback since yes
terday, when voters turned out
in record numbers despite
threats of attacks by snipers.

tabulation of 80 per cent of
more than 3 million votes: Mr..

Pope Will Enlarge Powers
Of Bishops, He Tells Council

VATICAN CITY, Dec. 2
(AP). - Pope Paul VI sent
word to the Vatican Ecumen-
ical Council today that he
would issue an apostolic letter
tomorrow extending new pow
ers to all bishops.
The document apparently
will be aimed at resolving a
Council dispute over the con-
cept of shared power between
bishops and the Pope.
The announcement Of the
Pope's intention came during
the last working meeting of
the Councils second session.
The Council fathers in st.
Peters Basilica also received
assurances from Augustin
Cardinal Bea that controver-
sial declarations on the Jews
and on religious tolerance
certainly will come up next
fall" at the Councils third
session. The declarations had
been put aside at this session.
TwO-Church Talks Urged
In another development,
Bishop Frantisek Tomasek of
Czechoslovakia proposed an
ecumenical council of both
Roman Catholic and Orthodox
bishops. He suggested such a
two-church council could ro-
tate its working sessions in
various cities. He specifically
mentioned Rome, IStanbul,
Alexandria in the U. A. R. and
Moscow.
Most debate at this final
working session centered on a
Christian unity schema. The
Council has ceremonial meet
ings tomorrow and Wednesday,
then recesses until next Sep
TENDER IA.
The announcement of the
Pope's intention, made by the
Council secretariat, said the
document will carry the title
"pastorale munus," Latin for
"the pastoral task" Without
giving details, the statement
said the letter will extend new
faculties" to bishops.
Pope Paul has said he would
like to see bishops united with
him in certain matters of
church government. The letter
would be the first concrete
step in this direction.

8-Point Buck;
Dad BIunked

Dad must have been q good
teacher and son q natural
pupil. At any rate, after q few
pointers on how to use a deer
rifle, q 10-year-old Fairfax boy
came home from his first hunt
ing trip with q big buck.
Sometime ago Jon DeRamus
was given q % rifle by his
grandfather. Under the tute-
lage of his father, Houston
DeRamus. an employe of the
Federal Housing Administra-
ton who lives on Leesville Pike,
Jon became quite adept with it.
This year DeRamus decided
he would take his son with him
on his annual trip to open the
deer season in the George
Washington National Forest.
Jon never had hunted deer
before, or anything else much
took him out the Saturday be-
fore the hunting season opened
and coached him on how to
shoot a 30 80 rifle.
Father and son hunted all
day Monday and neither saw a
deer. But at 9 am. Tuesday, not
too long after they entered the
woods, Jon sighted q 168-
pound, 8-point buck. The
youngster dropped the buck
with a perfect heart shot.
Jon now Is the talk of his
fellow Seventh graders at the
Fairfax Christian School,
where he proudly displayed his
trophy on his return home.
Meanwhile, DeRamus failed
to sight a deer on Tuesday,
and even worse, joins deer

finish q hide once it starts to
work on it. Most tannieries are
so far behind that 1t usually
requires 4 to 5 months to get a

the tannery.
Fish Present PROBLEMS
Deer heads can be handled
In 3 to 6 months.
On fish, it takes a good taxi
dermist a full day to skin out
the specimen and another day
to model the body. Then the
skin has to dry for two weeks
before it can be worked on
again. Then the taxidermist
has the tedious business of
modelling the head and mouth,
putting in the eyes and backing
up the fins.

likes the best are his bears. He

about "a hours. After that the
hide can be shaken out and
hung over q broom handle or

Fish are among the trickiest
specimens that taxidermists
have to deal with, and Hall has
his troubles because many an
glers who catch a trophy-size
fish think that the first thing
they must do is eviscerate it.
He says that no matter how
skillful the taxidermist Is, he
can't hide this cut when he
mounts the specimen.
He advises anglers who have
trophy fish to be mounted to
wrap them in a piece of wet
Turkish towel. This keeps the
fins from drying out, another
thing that makes fish so diff
cult to handle.
Freeze Fish Promptly
The fish should be frozen as
soon as possible and delivered
to the taxidermist whole. He
advises against leaving the fish
in the freezer too long, because
this also has q tendency to dry
out the fins.
Those who wish to have
birds mounted also should exer-
else a great amount of care
with their specimens, Hall says

TAxIDERMIsT WARNS HUNTERS
Ignorance Ruins Good Trophies
By WHEELER JOHNSON

OuaooW E0tW
The deer season is open on
all fronts, and many hunters
are coming in with trophy
bucks they want to preserve.
This Is q m natter Of great
concern to Benjamin H. Hall.
He is going to bsve to try to
save some Of these trophies be-
cause he operates q taxidermy
business-the American will
dlife Studio-in the basement
Of his home at $3.50 Woodbury.
street. Hyattsville.
And he knows that this year,
as IN years past, he is going to
see a number Of fine specimens
that either can't be saved, or at
best will make a poor trophy
because the hunter didn't have
the faintest idea Of elementary
procedure after he had killed
the animal.
"All I want to do Is save the
hunter who has gotten q fine
trophy a great deal Of disap-
pointment. All too often they
bring me a head that they
want mounted, and they have
cut the neck off so short that it
is almost impossible to do any
thing with It," Hall said.
Don't slit Threats
Then too, many have the
idea that they must slit the an
imal in the neck in order to
bleed it after 1t is killed. This is
absolutely unnecessary. There
is very little blood left in the
animals neck after the heart
stops beating and this small
amount will not be harmful in
any way.
THE only thing that needs
to be done In the woods i'm
mediately after the animal is
killed is to eviscerate It," Hall
pointed out. above all, don't
stick 1t or cut its throat in any
way.
"In taking the animal out of
the woods be careful not to
drag It, or at least, please don't
drag the part that Is to be
m ounte d. Dragging pulls the
hair off and also ru I'M the
hide, preventing us from max
ing a good looking specimen"
To begin skinning an animal
to preserve the hide for mount
ing, the animal should be hung
by the gambrels, Hall said.
Then cut around the gambrels
and split the inside Of the back
leg down to the stomach cavity.
Technique Of SHINING
Next start skinning down to
the front legs, pull the front
legs through the skin and cut
them off.
after the front legs have
been cut off, continue pulling
the hide right on down the
neck to the base Of the skull
and then saw the neck off with
a meat saw" Hall said.
This will give you the whole
hide intact so that it can be
properly tanned. This is good
for mounting half deer, or it
would allow for the best type Of
shoulder mount.
"If the hunter Is trying to
preserve only the head Of his
deer, he first should cut the
hide forward of the front legs
and split UP to the point Of the
shoulder, then up the neck to a
point below the ears. Then saw
the meat off with a meat saw"
Hunters Let Hides Spoil
Many hunters lose specimens
because they allow the hides to
spoil before they can get them
to the taxidermist, Hall de-
clares.
"The hunter first should lay
the hide on a flat surface and
get as much of the meat off as
possible. Then he should rub in
a lot of salt. After that he can
fold the hide up, rolling flesh
