Cattle mutilated in strange rites
By JIM BRIGANCE
Associated Press Writer
Investigators worked with few
clues Tuesday in the wake of
another outbreak of cattle mutila
tions in Texas.
The series of gory killings and
mutilations apparently at night is
without precedent for most cattle
owners and investigators.
“The problem is we don’t have
any idea who could be doing this. If
we were dealing with thefts then
we’d start looking among the known
thieves. This is different,’’ said Slim
Hulen, investigator for the Texas
and Southwestern Cattle Raisers
Association.
A 750-pound Charolias hull was
found in Anderson County Sunday
in a pine grove. The bull’s testicles,
penis, rectum, ears and tongue
were missing. The hide on one
shoulder had been peeled back. All
blood had been drained from the
carcass in an unexplained manner.
A large cow was found Monday
near Tyler on the Ashby Ranch .The
cow’s vulva and tongue were mis
sing. The cow was seven months
pregnant. No blood was found
around the carcass. Its fetus had
been removed.
Last month a registered Angus
cow was found in Hopkins County,
its head and sex organs missing.
“The uterus had been removed and
was lying up on top of the cow.
There’s not much question about it.
There s no doubt in my mind at all,
Hulen said, “but the cow was muti
lated by a human being. It’s possible
she was drained of her blood while
she was still alive. A bull was found
Tuesday on the Bill Lowrey ranch
near Tyler, its sex organs removed
along with the ears and tongue.
“We don’t have anything to go on
at all. Some of these incidents in
other counties, and one of the four
cases I’ve investigated, are cattle
that died and varmints got on to
them. But not in others, Hulen
said. Hopkins County Sheriff Paul
Jones said he is stepping up his
probe in light of what he feels are
the acts of an occult Satanist’s
group.
“We found out this much, a part
of the ceremonial rite is drinking the
blood of the animal while it is warm
and often decapitating whatever is
killed. Sometimes they take it with
them, that is, the head, and some
times leaving it behind with the
eyes and tongue removed,” Jones
said.
At least 14 previous similar muti
lations have been reported in Jones,
Stephens, Brown and Young coun
ties in Texas. Others have occurred
in Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska.

TOMBSTONE, Ariz. (AP) —The
Tombstone Epitaph, which has
chronicled this legendary town’s
news in Old Western style since the
days of Wyatt Earp, is headed for
academia.
The weekly paper won t be
changing its format, but its 3,400
worldwide subscribers will have to
look elsewhere for Old West nostal
gia.
Harold A. Love, a Detroit lawyer
who has owned the 94-year-old
paper since 1965, said Tuesday he is
donating the Epitaph to the Univer
sity of Arizona Journalism Depart
ment, effective Feb. 28.
George Ridge Jr., journalism de
partment head, said students will
publish the Epitaph as a laboratory
newspaper on a bi-weekly basis be
ginning March 7.
Ridge said students will publish
the newspaper without advertising
in March, April and May with dis
tribution limited to the Tombstone
area. He said that by tjren, he
shordd be able to gauge the paper as
a teaching tool.
The Epitaph, first published May
1, 1880 by John Chun, at the height
of the silver rush here, still pub-
FCC holds
Bell inquiry
WASHINGTON (AP) — The
Federal Communications Commis
sion said on Tuesday it isn t inves
tigating the allegations against
Southwestern Bell Telephone Co.,
but is keeping itself informed of the
controversy.
The FCC said it has jurisdiction
over interstate telephone service,
and that in-state service is a matter
for state governments. Texas is the
only state in the union with no state
regulation of telephone rates.
Southwestern Bell has been ac
cused by a former executive, James
H. Ashley, of making illegal political
donations, conducting illegal
wiretaps and using unfair account
ing to win rate increases from
municipal governments in Texas.
The FCC issued a statement say
ing it “has launched no formal inves
tigation of the matter at this time. ”
Other federal agencies, including
the Securities and Exchange com
mission and the Justice Depart
ment, are known to be conducting
inquiries into the allegations.
The FCC’s statement added that
it would “continue to follow the case
and take whatever action necessary
to carry out its statutory respon
sibilities.”
lishes front-page columns with
headlines like “Random Shots —
from the Epitaph’s Twelve Bore,’’
and “Only In Tombstone.’’And
these columns are written in the
journalistic style of the Old West.
About 3,400 of the newspaper’s
4,000 steady readers are Western
history buffs who receive the
Epitaph by mail.
That varied readership will be the
No. 1 problem the students will
have to deal with, Love says.
