Pag-e 4 College Station, Texas Thursday, January 11, 1968 THE BATTALION Wildlife Ranching To Aid Riddle Of World Food Supply Wild game ranching may be come increasingly important as a food supply for underdeveloped countries throughout the world, contends a wildlife science pro fessor at Texas A&M. Dr. James G. Teer, Caesar Kle berg professor at A&M, made the observation after a six-week visit to several Central and East Afri ca countries. “Game cropping is being done there by governmental agencies and private businesses,” Teer ex plained. “Hunters kill wild ani mals and sell them through meat markets in the larger cities.” “A lot of the country in Cen tral and East Africa has game populations not being adequately harvested by sport hunting,” Teer said. “In many cases, the rangeland is harmed by over browsing by wild animals.” and 25 wounded in a 20-minute giraffes, zebras, several species of small antelope, Cape buffalo and wart hogs are among the animals being butchered, quick- frozen and taken by freezer vans to wholesalers for wide distribu tion,” Teer noted. “This meat is more economically priced than beef.” Teer said Zambia’s Game De partment harvested 250 tons of elephants, hippos and Cape buf falo last year and sold the meat for $168,000. Almost one-third of that sum was added through sale of the hides. Elephants hooves were made into novelty items for tourists. “In South Rhodesia,” Teer con tinued, “a private firm has har vested similar animals for mar ket. Also taken were eland — the largest African antelope, ku du, impala, duyker and other to the tune of 20,000 pounds per week.” Teer said many of the game animals from Africa are being introduced in Texas for sport hunting. “We don’t need these animals for meat here,” Teer declared, “but we should consider them for marginal rangelands where cattle and other domestic livestock are not particularly productive. Some of the desert country in the Southwestern United States, Mexico and South America might make suitable habitats for these wild animals.” Africa, he pointed out, has millions of acres of land which can’t be ranched with domestic animals because of the presence of the deadly tse-tse fly. The hardier African wildlife is ap parently immune to sleeping sickness carried by the tse-tse fly. Teer’s trek to Africa, funded by the Caesar Kleberg Founda tion for Wildlife Conservation, also involved talks with officials of the Serengeti Research Insti tute in Tanzania, and the Mam mal Research Institute of the University of Pretoria. “We are interested in sending two or three of our advanced Nudist Camp Fears Building Upsurge HOLLYWOOD, Devereux Deakin that residents of a proposed high rise apartment next door to his nudist camp will see the naked truth. He’s afraid they might feel compelled to photograph it. So, to thwart any would-be shutterbugs, Deakin, manager of the Coral Lakes Health Resort, decided Wednesday to plant some “high rise trees. 11 The problem arose when Holly wood, Inc., a giant development corporation, announced Tuesday it would erect several five-story buildings about 500 feet from the nine-acre resort where naked members romp through the woods, play tennis and volleyball and swim. “People might have telephoto lenses and sell pictures,” Deakin said in an interview. “I wouldn’t mind but I sure don’t want some guy selling my wife’s picture around town.” Faced with the possible prob lem of nosey neighbors, Deakin said he felt the trees will insure privacy for his 1,000 members. “Once we get the trefes up the only way they could see us would be to fly over in a helicopter,” he said. Deakin said he received offers to sell the nine-acre site but took no action. “I don’t care what they do. They can’t push us out,” he said of Hollywood, Inc. ‘The camp has been here for more than five years Fla. IA > ) — was not trying to force his new isn’t worried neighbors to move. And he ex pressed doubts the presence of the Coral Lakes Health Resort would hurt his proposed $85 million project. However, Horvitz said he thought Deakin eventually would seek more secluded pastures. “I’ve nothing against nudist camps but they only prevail in secluded, isolated areas,” Horvitz said. “When population prevails, nudity doesn’t.” Presidents Forum Names Chairmen W.

Hundreds of thousands of ani mals roam the plains, much the same as bison must have in the United States more than 100 years ago,” he continued. Teer said university officials hope to start the cooperative pro grams with Serengeti and Pre toria this summer. “This will offer an opportunity for A&M to play an international role in the conservation and de velopment of additional uses of wildlife,” he emphasized. “Serengeti, part of Tanzania’s national parks, covers about 6,- 000 square miles,” Teer com mented. “For the sheer beauty of the place, for its scientific value and man’s enjoyment, we have an obligation to preserve it.” Rap Brown Hides | Thursday, Ji In Cuban Mission I ^ el At : T33BiC MOTEL WALLS CRUMBLE IN FIRE Walls of the Normandie Hotel, a residency for elderly per sons in Philadelphia, crumble and fall to the street after a fire raced through the structure. Police and firemen evac uated more than 300 residents with no injuries reported. (AP Wirephoto) NEW YORK (A*)—Black power militant H. Rap Brown took refuge inside the Cuban Mission on Manhattan’s upper East Side Wednesday night, after a New York City policeman tried to stop and question him. The officer, whose name was not immediately available, said he stopped Brown and another Negro when they emerged from the mission on East 67th Street. One of the Negroes was said to have been carrying a package. “What have you got there?” the policeman said he inquired. “Why don’t you mind your own business and go away?” was the response of a Negro said to re- seble the 23-year-old Brown. The officer then said he at tempted to take the Negroes into custody and that the one resem bling Brown pushed him. The two men then reportedly ran back inside the Cuban mission, while an armed mission guard held the door open for them. Confirmation of Brown’s pres ence in the mission was obtained later in calls by newsmen. How ever, an unidentified man answer ing the telephone there said: “Mr. Brown does not want to make a declaration. I am very sorry,ii| I am busy.
