DUMMY CATS SCARE PIGEONS
CHICAGO, (/P)—Pigeons got too'
pestiferous at the I. neoln Park'
zoo’s lion house and refreshment
stand. S > some dummy cats were
placed on top of bo‘h buildings.
The cats are made ol wood. Hut
the heads and tails are attached
to the bodies with spring steel.
The breezes move them. This
makes them look lively enough to
scare the pigeons away.
Hammond, Ind, ordered his Pri
vatter searching to turn back t >
its Johnston Island base In six
minutes on the extra search the
life rafts’ green dye marker was
sighted diectly beneath the Pri
vateer.
Kona said the survivors “were
hanging on the gunwales — half
inside, half outside."
Calhoun reported his men saw
sharks circling them trom the time
they “ditched” the plane until
they were picked up.
He said to the best of his knowl
edge everybody got out of the
plane when it hit the ocean 1,200
miles southwest of Honolulu.
But Capt. James M. Lane of the
! Rendova radioed that two men
went down with the plane. He
'aid another died Sunday night
and a fourth jumped overboard
Monda3’ after more than thirty
hours on a raft in the shark infest
ed waters.
! All survivors were “well and
happy” when rescued, and Cal
houn sounded calm as he told the
story over the radiophone from
the Rendova.
