mp IS 1 Page 4' Monday, June 26, 1972 A Texan Lost In Texas Coyote Has World9 Saddest Sound In Thoughtful Way Temperature Sets Two Sunday Marks 3Y THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Burning temperatures covered virtually all of Texas Sunday with thermometers reaching record levels in many points across the state. Forecasters said more heat was on the way. The scorching heat was followed late in the day by thunderstorms that erupted in western, central and eastern sections of the state. The thermometers starting smoking before noon and before 1 p.m., they had climbed to 100 mark in a score of places. Maximum temperatures ranged from a torrid 111 at Wichita Falls and 109 at Mineral Wells down to 86 at Galveston, where the Gulf breezes blow.

Other maximums included: Abilene 105, Childress 105, Cotulla 103, Dallas 104, Del Rio 101, Fort Worth 105, Lubbock 100, Midland 102, San Angelo 102, Waco 102 and Wink 105. For Dallas, Fort Worth and Wichita Falls it was record-breaking heat. At College Station, in the sun, a 140-degree temperature was reported on the race track there as the Lone Star 500 was run. Fort Worth's previous record for a June 25 was 104 degrees in 1933. Dallas' previous mark for the date was 101 in 1933.

Wichita Falls' blistering Sunday sun broke out in an area from northeast of Fort Worth to Mount Pleasant and northward into Oklahoma. These showers, some moderately heavy in the Sulphur Springs-Mount Pleasant vicinity, moved east and north. Then later in the afternoon, severe storms struck in West Texas in Irion and Crockett counties. Hail and high winds accompanied a storm near Barnhart. mi ii.

dogs or airborne hunters to control the coyote population. This sounds very good on paper. But it just deosn't work that way. Killer dogs do not stop killing Just" because they've chased the coyotes away. They turn to killing stock, too, and can be worse than coyotes.

Or take the experence a few years ago of a rancher-farmer on the edge of the Wichita Breaks between Seymour and Wichita Falls. He got tired of coyotes and bought several greyhounds who surely could outrun a coyote and kill it. The greyhounds drove the coyotes deep into the breaks for a time. Then the dogs disappeared.

Reed apparently doesn't know much about coyote habits, else he wouldn't have suggested shooting them from the air. Eagles can be shot from the air, as bird lovers know, but coyotes are not birds of the same feather. They prowl at night mostly, and until rieflemen develop night eyes there isn't much chance fo seeing one so they can shoot. In daylight, coyotes mainly hide in dens or other places where they can't seen. Seeing a coyote is somewhat unusual.

Out in West Texas you probably could get another western type war started bewteen ranchers and farmers over coyotes. One time the ranchers pretty well rid Baylor County of coyotes. So what moved in'' Jackrabbits. The rabbits started chewing on the farmers crops there being no ccoyotes around to catch the fast little beasts. So the farmers had to organize great rabbit drives to save their crops.

NATURE DELICATE The balance of nature is very delicate. So what are yo ugoing to save livestock or crops? Environmentalists say the coyotes do not inflict damage heavy enough on ranchers to warrant their destruction through poison. And we can just see an angry rancher waving that $17 million loss bill in their faces. W.M. Sims of San Angelo told a congressional committee last April that 80 per cent of all predators killed were destroyed by poison.

Others said shooting and trapping simply could not keep the coyote population within bounds. By ROBERT E. FORD Associated Press Writer Possibly the world's most lonesome sound can be heard throughout the West provided the listener is at the right place at the right time. This is anywhere in rough country on a clear night. From somewhere far away comes a cry, rising and falling, as if the heart were being torn from something living.

Actually, it is nothing more than a coyote trying out his vocal cords. The Indians believed he was the smartest animal around, and created legends about him. The coyote possesses many of the traits that the Indian needed before he was forced onto reservations. He was intelligent, clever, an expert on hit and run raids, and could melt away into the wilderness so that his enemies couldn't find him. MR.

COYOTE HAPPY Mr. Coyote is having one of his good times right now, and we'll wager that he's in his den right now laughing his furry head off at his latest victory. This is because the federal government has switched over to his side, in effect. So now a new howl is heard in the land coming from ranchers and chicken raisers. They howl pretty good, too.

This triumph for what the encyclopedia calls the Prairie Wolf came this year when President Nixon banned use of coyote poison on federal land and the Environmental Protection Agency stopped interstate shipment of predator control poisons. For, smart as he is, the coyote isn't a very good chemist and can't distinguish a poison from a non-poison. Particularly he hasn't learned to cope with a device which, when he takes a tug at a piece of meat, flips poison into his throat far enough down so that he can't spit it out. Ranchers, particularly sheep and goat raisers, protested loudly in Washington against the ban of poison. They estimate that coyotes, even with widespread use of poison, cost them $17 million in 1970 in animal losses.

'PAY FOR POISONS' They offered another deal to the government: Pay them damages if poisons are completely banned. They estimate the coyote population will explode to the point that their losses will be $50 million annually. The government, in the person of Nathaniel Reed, assistant secretary of the Interior Department, said poison really isnt' necessary. Advised Reed: use packs of killer World Chess Match Now Waits Outcome Of Lighting Squabble Typhoon Ora Lashes Manila In Philippines MANILA (AP) Typhoon Oira whipped the greater Manila area with winds of up to 60 m.p.h. Sunday and left at least six provinces in Luzon under water and an undetermined number of families homeless.

Unconfirmed news reports said at least nine persons were killed or missing. Rescue and emergency operations by several civic organizations led by the Philippines National Red Cross are continuing despite inadequate electricity in most part of the greater Manila area. The Manila Electric Co. cut of electric power because of fallen high tension wires and burned out transformers. By midafternoon about 70 per cent of the power had been restored.

A Red Cross spokesman said several towns in nearby Bulacan province, north of here, were reported inundated and many families were left homelss. The winds also knocked out private and govrnment communication office in the city and cetnral Luzon province. NEW YORK AP) The long awaited chess match between the Russian world champion Boris Spassky and the American challenger, Bobby Fischer, in Reykjavik, Iceland, may be stalemated in a dispute over lighting, Fred Cramer, past president of the U.S. Chess Federation, said Sunday night. Cramer, a consulting illumination engineer and a friend of Fischer, said a battle was brewing between Fischer and a television producer who has arranged for the right to televise the 24-game match scheduled to start July 2.

Speaking to newsmen at Kennedy International Airport before boarding Icelandic Airlines Flight 508 to Reykjavik, Cramer said, "Fischer won't play under anything but fluorescent lighting it is very important to him." Cramer said that the television con- tract, "in six figures," calls for filming the match in color and that fluorescent lighting does not have "the proper color spectrum for color film." "The television people have insisted that they will use additional lighting such as incandescent or tungsten-halogen," Cramer said. Fischer is opposed to any additional lighting, Cramer said. The unpredictable Fischer was supposed to have left on the same flight with Cramer but cancelled his reservation at the last minute. Cramer shrugged when asked why Fischer did not show up. "He makes his own decisions," he said.

Cramer said he would also report back to Fischer on hotel room accomodations, the amount of noise in the tournament hall, proximity of the audience and light glare. "Everything has to be perfect." Cramer said he did not know when Fischer would leave for Iceland nor would he say where the player was staying but said he was "not too far away. He's very sensitive about the press." Bomb Major Flight Suspect In Saigon Crash SAIGON (AP) Investigators of the crash of a Cathay Pacific Airways jetliner that killed 81 persons are nearly convinced the plane carried a bomb that destroyed it in the air, informed sources reported Sunday.
