I Deer Are Tiny, But They Survive Ice Age, Hurricanes And Tidal Waves BIG PINE KEY UM Tinier than large dog, Florida key deer survived thou hurricanes, tidal waves, droughts, maybe even an ice age, and now appear to be winning a battle against mankind. For many years the shy animals were believed to exist only in legend. Wildlife authorities agree the key deer nearly became legendary it is thought their number had dwindled to perhaps 20 a few years ago. Then began a hard fought drive to preserve the deer, provide a sanctuary for them on their island home in the Florida Keys, and possibly learn more about their origin. OPPOSITION came from many sources, including real estate promoters who were getting top prices from persons seeking retirement homesites or fishing campsites.

Still others argued setting aside land for an animal they said no one had proved existed. Finally, in 1957, a measure passed Congress and was signed by President Eisenhower, authorizing establishment of a 1,000 acre refuge for the Florida Key deer. The land was to be acquired through purchases, donation and exchange of other federal land. Jack Watson, a veteran U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service employe, became a director.

Watson, who had conducted studies of the elusive creatures since 1951, probably knows as much about the key deer as anyone. "There certainly is key deer," Watson will reassure fact it has been determined to be odocoileius virginianus clavium, or a sub-specie of the wellknown white tailed Virginia deer." THE KEY DEER is similar to his larger Virginia cousin one respect, Watson says. The deer's white tail raises and twitches nervously when danger is present. Similarity ends there. Watson says the skull of the key deer differs from Virginia deer in width, length, and makeup of the tooth row.

full grown doe will weigh 35 pounds, a buck 55 to 95 pounds. One of the largest key deer yet found was a 110 pound buck killed by a car. He was 30 inches high at the front shoulders. Speeding cars on the Overseas Highway from Miami to Key West were among factors threatening the key deer with extinction. Yet, study of deer killed by the autos has been the only way man has been able to learn much about the miniature whitetails.

Key deer does have more twin fawns than larger deer usually have, a fact Watson attributed to the abundance of nourishment. Whereas northern deer have their young in the spring, Watson says he has seen key deer with new offspring pretty well through the year. The key deer are a light brown, with a strip of white under the neck and stomach. Unlike their northern cousins, they don't change to a lighter shade during winter months. ORIGIN of the key deer is the big mystery.

Some wildlife biologists believe the key deer may have been around when the Florida Keys were a solid strip of land. As ice age glaciers melted and the seas level rose, the deer were isolated from the mainland. A food shortage centuries ago may have produced the small breed of deer. They adapted to the environment, however and developed their ability to swim to migrate from island to island. Watson says he has seen as many as six deer swim more than a mile to an adjoining island.

An early voyager to the Westtern Hemisphere who wrote of finding "small stagges" may have been one of the first white men to see the key deer. As man settled in the the deer were gradually pushed back until they were concentrated on Big Pine and Howe Keys, about midway between Miami and Key West. When Congress created the refuge, only $35,000 in federal no land be acquired funds were available and made, through Interested citizens and condemnation. wildlife groups raised money or donated land. The North American Wildlife Foundation donated all of Howe Key last summer.

Watson says now that the deer have their own islands and are afforded complete protection, they are flourishing. He estimates their number at 225. "But that's only a good guess from available signs," Watson points out. "Nobody sees enough of those littie fellows to know much about Other Deaths On Suncoast ST.

Fatal Shooting Ends 'Friendly' Drinking Party By DON PRIDE Of The Times Staff SAFETY HARBOR Shattering the calm of New Year's Day in Upper Pinellas County, a single blast from a 12-gauge shotgun killed James Corley in the kitchen of a friend's home near Safety Harbor yesterday. The friend, Emory Hudson, 47, was being held in the county jail at Clearwater last night for investigation of first degree murder in the shooting of Corley, a year old pipeline construction foreman. Sheriff's Capt.

Earl said a warrant charging that offense would be sworn out in Justice of Peace Court District 3 today. NEWBERRY SAID the shootended a drinking party in Hudson's home on County Road 102, just west of North Haines Road. It was apparently witnessed by the wives of both men and by Hudson's year old daughter. Hudson, an unemployed brick-; layer, told officers his gun fired accidentally as he started into living room to clean weapon. "I just turned and the gun went off," he said.

"God knows what happened." HOWEVER, BAYNELLE Corley, 37-year-old wife of the shooting victim, said Hudson "just picked up the gun and said, 'This is it, I'm going to kill "He did, he killed my husband," the woman said, weeping as she sat in blood-stained clothes on a side porch of the Hudsons' modest frame dwelling at the deadend of a dirt road. "He had no cause to," Mrs. Corley said to a deputy, "we were all good friends." After questioning witnesses at the jail last night, Newberry said the shooting followed an argument between Corley and his wife. Hudson apparently interceded in the dispute, Newberry said. "He ended it all right," the sheriff's captain added.

THE SHOTGUN BLAST, apparerntly fired at fairly close range, tore into Corley's chest as he stood in the kitchen where the group had been drinking. He fell to the floor, between the kitchen table and the living room door, and was dead in 10 seconds, Newberry said. There were about a dozen empty beer cans, an empty wine bottle, and another three-quarters full table. Other empty another empty also in the kitchen. Newberry said then again yesterday.

Thompson Funeral Directors. Youth Hurt As Train Hits Auto SARASOTA A train-car accident here last night sent on Douglas Crowell, 18, Sarasota, to Memorial Hospital with a compound skull fracture. Kathe Crowell, who lives at 1836 Rhoades Terrace, was listed in serious condition last night and was scheduled to receive emergency surgery. He also suffered possible internal injuries. Highway Patrol Trooper L.

Coburn said Crowell's 1954 model auto was struck by an Atlantic Coast Line freight train at the 17th Street crossing about 5:27 p.m. The trooper said there are no flashing red signal lights at the crossing and Crowell apparently didn't see the approaching train. Coburn said the diesel engine train was traveling about 35 mph when it struck the Crowell car the left side and carried it 198 feet down the tracks. The youth was pinned in the wreckel age which came to rest on its top on the west side of the tracks. Engineer Lawrence Reel of Tampa said he sounded the el train's whistle as he approached the intersection and didn't see the car until the last second.

According to Coburn, the youth tried to swerve his westbound car to the right at the last jute but couldn't get from the path of the train. Coburn said Crowell was traveling about m.p.h. at the time of the accident. No charges were filed by the trooper, who said the unmarked crossing is doubly dangerous for westbound motorists who can't see an approaching train because of a nearby building.
