Hawk o. = Ripp 3,,, By Ted Kesting A human weasel is a shifty, slinking, chinless weakling who takes by unlawful craftiness what he cannot gain by intelligence, pluck, hard work and personal integrity. All of this describes not the real weasel, but his com- plete antitlmsis. There is nothing shifty abont the weasel. He is as direct as a bullet. Yet you never heal; any- one speak a kind word in his 'behalf. This small caxnivore is always pictured as a vile satanic killer, sly, sneaky, without morals, scruples or self respect. But to Byron Dalrymple, once a trapper, the weasel has many characteristics of which humans could be very proud, if they had them to his degree. He is equipped with a high-speed meta- bolism which keeps him constantly restive, always on the move. Coupled with this tremendous en- ergy arc one of the most alert and agile intelligence in wildlife. matchless fearlessness and deter- ruination, lightning physical agil- ity, and the most amazing strength per unit of weight you will find in mammals. The weasel is one of the world's smallest carnivores, yet probably nature's most efficient killer. In his every daily act he is, next to the shrew, the most intense of all mammals. We call this intensity of movement and purpose ferocity, but from the weasel's viewpoint, it is nothing more than a superior development in relation to condi- tions of his environment. --Iis unusual strength, plus his ot?Ier qualities enable him to cope with creatures outweighing him 20 and more times. To muscular power he adds an expert surgeon's knowledge of the most deadly holds known to any rough-and- tumble fighter. Artery holds. And, knowing these, he never gambles on using less effective ones. The weasel must dart in and sink his razor-sbarp de@tal scal- pels in the fatal place with one I lightning thrust. And he must know the physiology and anato- Diamond Pennants Won by Morton, SK, Shelton Prep Nines Baseball titles wee setLled in several Southwest Washington and neighboring area high school leagues last week as schedules chined or neared their ends.

The benefits consist of war service gratuities and reestablish- ment credit.
