Gee, I don't think I'd seen a werewolf since I guess it was six, seven years I stopped taking her out. Frank Thornton, a 16 year-old Media High student who lives on Naaman's Creek Road in Chadd's Ford, is one of the leading authorities on the werewolf. Frank took me to the spot where he and two companions first saw it Friday night.

It's on Beaver Valley Road, across Route 202. The road goes downhill and high trees cast dark shadows over it. On the left the ground rises in a dense woods, with slivers of bark and decaying branches on the ground. The road, is an ideal spot for a fellow to dawdle with his doll. It's also perfect werewolf country.

"You ought to see this when there's a full moon," said Frank, a thin, sandy-haired kid. "See that path going up the hill. The moon shines right through there. It's real weird looking." Frank told how he, Brownie Evans of Conestoga Farms and Fred Ball of Boothwyn rode down there Friday night. They had stopped the car when Frank heard slow footsteps behind them.

He looked out and saw a vague, white figure coming toward the car. The boys didn't hang around to get its autograph.

A hearing was set for Monday at New Orleans. The Justice Department, moving swiftly in the wake of Gov.

The appeals court judges are here for a hearing in another case.

Thursday night, barely hours after Barnett rejected the Negro Air Force veteran's application in a dramatic showdown on the campus at Oxford, the Justice Department asked U.S. Dist.

"Now one of them could have thrown it," said Frank, "but they swear they didn't. They were still in the woods when it came flying out.

But why would they throw it at my car, you know. I'm best friends with all of them and I tfon think they'd do that. And the handle of the hammer had claw marks, or something, on it."

But the federal government bypassed him in its legal counter- no ves. A spokesman for the Jus- ice Department in Washington, Edwin 0.

On the face of it, the transcript indicates Swing and Welsh did not actually vote on either motion. The transcript, made by an official court reporter on a steno- graph, indicates the only motion voted upon was one to bring the motion to oust Williams to a vote.
