Let Rifle Hunters Try
To Top This Hunt Story
Wayne Pitts, of Farwell, brought
in a big buck deer last week end,
a trophy of his success 'in the bow
and arrow season. The big ten-
pointer fell victim of Pitt's sharp
arrow and true aim last Saturday.
The hunt wasn't over until Pitts
brought the kill in to town on Sunday, and he brought in a fine hunting, story . . . as much fun in the
telling as there was sport in the
hunting-
Pitts - told Conservation officer
Don Bell that he was in his blind
north of Farwell late Saturday afternoon when he got his chance for
/ f the one'perfect'shot he had been
waiting fori The buck which, he estimated to be near 180 pounds, stopped on the edge of a roadway in
range1* of his bow.
Pitts' well-aimed shaft scored a
perfect hit and penetrated all .tho
way through the animal, to, stick
out the farther side several inches'.
The deer, mortally hurt, staggered
' and then ran slowly away from the
blind.
Before disappearing, the wounded deer stopped and reaching
around and taking the point of the
arrow in*his teeth, he snapped it
off and dropped it. Then as Pitts
watched, the buck stopped again
and nipping the notch end of the
shaft on the other side, he tugged
convulsively and the second piece
of the arrow was also out. The deer
was last seen heading through the
X* "woods in the hilly region north of
- ^ Ferguson Lake.
Now, deer hunting produces some
good stories, and the fact is - this
deer was difficult to hunt even after he was dead. Pitts, Harold Lock-
wood, bis hunting buddy, Don Bell
and others* were on a cold trail
when they went back Sunday morning to.find that rain had washed
away the' blood-trail spots.
Enlisting the aid of Ken Thibaut
of Clare who is a pilot and owna
his own plane, the search for the
buclt was continued by air .Sunday
afternoon. Thibault discovered the
prize a little over a mile north of
where the blind was located, and
the gang on the ground dragged out
the'kill. Pitts, really proud of the
big wild, WhitetaiF'and> happily re-
lating'the story of the shot and the
hunt for the game, spent the next
day or so, showing off his fine sport
trophy.
Don Bell reminds hunters that no
Bows and Arrows are permitted in
the woods for the five mays just
preceding the opening of tbe rifle
season. ■ -

Due Today; Canvassers
The United'Fund Drive, started last Thursday morning,
is hampered' by JacK of volunteers for canvassing, according
to Clare county campaign chairman, Mrs. Kathryn, freeman*
No returns are available yet in the $8,959 fund raising
campaign, since campaign Workers were instructed .to report
after a .week's work, or after their own area is canvassed.
"Mrs. Freehimah -urged that" Clare■
county peopje who want to give
money, but have .not been approached by a canvasser, should
put their contributions' in an envelope and mail them to Frank LaGoe, Clare, Michigan. He- ia tha
Clare city chairmAn. . **
"There is some confusion as to
just where the money contributed
to the United Fund will go, and
whether it will be used in the
county", said Mrs. Freeman.
County people who contribute
to the local United Fund effort
will be furnishing wa"ys and means
to the Boy Scouts, the Community
Chest, Red Cross, Salvation Army
and other smaller . charitable
groups, she said."
This will be the one appeal that
these groups "will, make to Clare
county purses ■ for the year, she
' added,- and it* will have to covef
budgets of all of these orgatiiza"
tioiis. -'-■ ' '.-;
"This can be a really personal
appeal, if people who were Boy
Scouts once, or have sons who are,
or who as servicemen or disaster
victims were "aided by the Red
Cross, will stop to reflect on the
lift they received from these organizations." she sayi.
TB Christinas and Easter seals',
March of Dimes canisters and the
cancer fund, because of a seasonal
or educational nature, will conduct
their own special appeals, as always, it has been announced.
Typing Class
Lead Adult
Enrollments .
A filial total of 34 adults-have,
registered, and will come to Clare
public schools each week this falL
for sessions in welding, writing
showcards taking shorthand, typing
and learning to drive an automobile.
Typing is the. most popular
course with an even dozen enrolled. Welding is next. with eight.
Showcard and shorthand haVe
five each, and driver training,
four.
Fall adult evening classes were
inauguarated this -year- in order
to get the adult education program
on "a. two term basis, which w*U
allow for better coverage of particular subjects, according to T. C.
Campbell, Superintendent" of- Schol.
Now adults may take a beginning course in the fall term, and
move into an advanced class winter term, along with people who
have already had experience in the
course-work. This offers more continuity of study and practice in
particular subjects, the 'Superintendent commented.

distinguished new passenger cars,
according to company spokesmen.
Scheduled for debut at the Tim

showrooms across the nation Friday, November 4, the latest models
carry increased * horsepower, a
fleeter, more rugged appearance
and are offered in the broadest array of bodies ever produced by the
company.
New iu the low-price field is a
four-door/ hardtop sport sedan.
This car has no obstructing center
pillar in the window area and' is
fashioned with the same stylng
zest that made the Chevrolet sport
coupe a sensation of the automobile market since 1950. Also introduced for the first tiine are nine
passenger station wagons," bringing tho company's total number of
1956 bodies to 19.
The new model sixes rate at 140
horsepower. The Super Turbo-Fire
VS which, in a recent performance
■test, set a "new, all-time record at
Pikes Peak in September, develops
205 horsepower. 1
Among outstanding safety features in the 195G Chevrolet line
are the availability of seat belts
and shoulder harnesss; improved
jjrncision-aimed headlights and
crash-tested door locks to minimize the possibility of doors being
sprung open by shock or collision.

Bob Rowley Wins Citation ;Bob Rowley, past commander of tlie Pettit-Kapplinger post of The Veterans of Foreign Wars was notified by letter -this Week that he had been selected "Post Commander Of The "Year" by members of the Past Commanders Club of VFW's Depart- ment of. Michigan.. . The honor was conferred upon Rowley in recognition of his strong organizing efforts while leading the Clare post, and because of his fine work in behalf of The Veterans of Foreign Wars in general. Rowley was unable to attend a ceremony at Benton Harbor Sunday to accept his citation but received the congratulations of the organization. Let Rifle Hunters Try To Top This Hunt Story Wayne Pitts, of Farwell, brought in a big buck deer last week end, a trophy of his success 'in the bow and arrow season. The big ten- pointer fell victim of Pitt's sharp arrow and true aim last Saturday. The hunt wasn't over until Pitts brought the kill in to town on Sunday, and he brought in a fine hunting, story . . . as much fun in the telling as there was sport in the hunting- Pitts - told Conservation officer Don Bell that he was in his blind north of Farwell late Saturday afternoon when he got his chance for / f the one'perfect'shot he had been waiting fori The buck which, he estimated to be near 180 pounds, stopped on the edge of a roadway in range1* of his bow. Pitts' well-aimed shaft scored a perfect hit and penetrated all .tho way through the animal, to, stick out the farther side several inches'. The deer, mortally hurt, staggered ' and then ran slowly away from the blind. Before disappearing, the wounded deer stopped and reaching around and taking the point of the arrow in*his teeth, he snapped it off and dropped it. Then as Pitts watched, the buck stopped again and nipping the notch end of the shaft on the other side, he tugged convulsively and the second piece of the arrow was also out. The deer was last seen heading through the X* "woods in the hilly region north of - ^ Ferguson Lake. Now, deer hunting produces some good stories, and the fact is - this deer was difficult to hunt even after he was dead. Pitts, Harold Lock- wood, bis hunting buddy, Don Bell and others* were on a cold trail when they went back Sunday morning to.find that rain had washed away the' blood-trail spots. Enlisting the aid of Ken Thibaut of Clare who is a pilot and owna his own plane, the search for the buclt was continued by air .Sunday afternoon. Thibault discovered the prize a little over a mile north of where the blind was located, and the gang on the ground dragged out the'kill. Pitts, really proud of the big wild, WhitetaiF'and> happily re- lating'the story of the shot and the hunt for the game, spent the next day or so, showing off his fine sport trophy. Don Bell reminds hunters that no Bows and Arrows are permitted in the woods for the five mays just preceding the opening of tbe rifle season. ■ - orts Due Today; Canvassers The United'Fund Drive, started last Thursday morning, is hampered' by JacK of volunteers for canvassing, according to Clare county campaign chairman, Mrs. Kathryn, freeman* No returns are available yet in the $8,959 fund raising campaign, since campaign Workers were instructed .to report after a .week's work, or after their own area is canvassed. "Mrs. Freehimah -urged that" Clare■ county peopje who want to give money, but have .not been approached by a canvasser, should put their contributions' in an envelope and mail them to Frank LaGoe, Clare, Michigan. He- ia tha Clare city chairmAn. . ** "There is some confusion as to just where the money contributed to the United Fund will go, and whether it will be used in the county", said Mrs. Freeman. County people who contribute to the local United Fund effort will be furnishing wa"ys and means to the Boy Scouts, the Community Chest, Red Cross, Salvation Army and other smaller . charitable groups, she said." This will be the one appeal that these groups "will, make to Clare county purses ■ for the year, she ' added,- and it* will have to covef budgets of all of these orgatiiza" tioiis. -'-■ ' '.-; "This can be a really personal appeal, if people who were Boy Scouts once, or have sons who are, or who as servicemen or disaster victims were "aided by the Red Cross, will stop to reflect on the lift they received from these organizations." she sayi. TB Christinas and Easter seals', March of Dimes canisters and the cancer fund, because of a seasonal or educational nature, will conduct their own special appeals, as always, it has been announced. Typing Class Lead Adult Enrollments . A filial total of 34 adults-have, registered, and will come to Clare public schools each week this falL for sessions in welding, writing showcards taking shorthand, typing and learning to drive an automobile. Typing is the. most popular course with an even dozen enrolled. Welding is next. with eight. Showcard and shorthand haVe five each, and driver training, four. Fall adult evening classes were inauguarated this -year- in order to get the adult education program on "a. two term basis, which w*U allow for better coverage of particular subjects, according to T. C. Campbell, Superintendent" of- Schol. Now adults may take a beginning course in the fall term, and move into an advanced class winter term, along with people who have already had experience in the course-work. This offers more continuity of study and practice in particular subjects, the 'Superintendent commented. 3*K* T-fra CAM* Copy "**•.•■ Now Series, Vol. 64, No, 7 ers - Veterans Armistice Day Program Friday, November 11, .11 a.m. Clare High School, Aiiditprium , Moment Of Silence .Invocation — Rev.
