Bayfield's recent
"bear scare" sent me
out with the camera
heading for the local
dump, thinking the
aroma might attract
Mr. Bruin. No dice.
Probably the fishy
shoreline had more
powers of attraction.
I have never shot
a bear or shot at one,
but sometimes it was
not because I didn't
want to. Saw a big
one shot with a 30.-
30 a few years ago.
One soft point slug
dropped the brute in

three steps. Helped
butcher the beast
and got paid off with
the heart, liver and
a five-pound roast
off the haunch. Its
not what you could
call fancy chow.
The local repres-
entative of the Dept.
of Lands & Forests is
right about blacks
being timid. I ran
into one a couple
miles north of Larder
Lake while prospect-
ing on my own one
afternoon. We were
both so scared we
tippy-toed away in
opposite directions
just pretending we
didn't see each other.
I had no way of
knowing if the bear
was sweating. but I
know I was. Having
seen them demolish
big tree stumps with
one bash of those big
paws, it gives a guy
something to think
about.
Never had a tent
molested, but had
bears come within 25
feet after a tent had
been left for three
days, Logs had been
rolled over and smash-
ed in the hunt for
grub, but the grocer-
ies in the tent were
not sufficient lure
to get the bear to
brave the man-smell
around the camp.
Had another sweaty
quarter of an hour in
a big wild raspberry
patch near Circle
Lake in Northern Ont.
near the quebec line.
The bushes were near
1 y shoulder high and
the footing was rough.
Putting my head down
below the foliage to
check my path, I was
Shaken to the roots
to find the bushes
were honeycombed with
bear paths where they
were coming to eat,
It has been put to
me that there is no
man or beast grouch-
ier than a snoozing
bear that's been
stepped on by some
hapless character.
There were several
acres of berry bushes
to wade through and
I was scared skinny.
It was scary peeking
i nto those bear tunn-
els, expecting to get
growly reception at
turn. The smell
of bear was strong to
he point of violence.
It was just as bad
alking along head
above the leaves. This
way you could walk on
one before you knew it
and the encounter did
not attract.
My bear phobia at
that time was partly
due to living in a
log cabin in which
a bear had made his
entrance through the
back window, taking
sash, frame and all.
Inside he had gone
haywire and smashed
two wooden beds to
splinters, ripped up
some of the floor,
destroyed a mattress,
smashed cupboards off
the wall, eaten the
soap and toothpaste,
chewed canned goods,
then departed through
the front window,with
frame, sash etc. It
was uncomforting to
recall that there
was a large patch of
wild strawberries
ripening an eighth of
a mile from the cabin
and a big fat black
bear sitting in the
centre of the patch
was the first thing
my partner and I saw
as our Beaver aircraft
circled before land-
ing.
An unbearable situ-
ation, youemieht say.
FAIR BOARD DROPS
HORSE CLASSES HERE
Directors of Bayfield
Agricultural Society
met in the Village
hall June 2, the pres-
ident, Orval McClinch-
ey presiding.
The board adopted a
report from the sch-
ool committee revis-
ing the prize list for
1965 and expressed
thanks for the pains-
taking work done on
the schedule.
Classes for draft
and roadster horses
have been dropped,
a sign of the machine
age, and pet and pony
classes will be set up
with worthwhile prizes
The board was rel-
uctant to drop the
horses after 108 yea
but of late little
interest has been di
played. Farm poultry
classes also will be
discontinued.
A financial canvass
will be undertaken
soon.

TV V iews
by William Whiting
It's unfortunate
that the panelists on
CBC's "Flashback"
are not as strong as
the "Front Page Chal-
lenge" group of Betty
Kennedy, Pierre Berton
and Gordon Sinclair.
We watched last Sun-
day's Flashback effort
and panelist Elwy Yost
asked if one of the
hidden guests was Lou
Gehrig. Lou Gehrig has
been dead for years
and years. If it was
not for emcee Bill
Walker's efforts
"Flashback" would have
been dead years ago
too. Maggie Morris &
Allan Manings are the
other "Flashback" pan-
elists. CBC Should
look for replacements
if they intend leav-
ing this program in
the 1965-1966 fall
schedule.

What do astronauts
eat while travelling
around the globe 63
times ? A cagy of the
entire diet for both
men came to us the
other day. Here's one
meal: Beef and gravy,
corn, toast, fruit
cake and tea. Another
meal: beef pot roast,
ereen peas, toasted
bread cubes, pineapple
cubes and tea. The
chart shows that they
eat four times a day,
every six hours. If
you would like to see
the complete menu for
the two astronauts,
write to me in care
of this paper.
