CLARENDON — Tall, peacdul cottonwoods and
pines first attracted rancher John Lee Bell to a sec
tion of land in the Panhandle. He bought the land in
1969 with the idea of a wildlife refuge in the back of
his mind.
A decade later, however, the idea has become a
sprawling preserve, protected by a vicious ostrich
and a huge buffalo bull named “Big Red. " The pre
serve is the Bell family’s private domain, open only
to private tours mainly by students from nearby high
schools and colleges. The preserve’s primary pur
pose, he said, is for the enjoyment of his family.
“It’s just a hobby,” said Bell, who is legally blind.
The preserve is as much a refuge for Bell as it is for
the animals.
The outer area is not inviting, surrounded by
trees, a 10-foot fence, six feet of picket and four feet
of barbed wire. Inside, the animals graze among the
high trees, native grasses, pastures and a cool pond.
A well-cared-for mobile home looks over the pas
tures and the emerald pool with its spray of water
fountains.
Bell’s wife Anita christened the preserve the
“Horn B Ranch" — “Horn for the animals; B for
Bell,” she said.
Bell, clenching a large, never-lighted cigar be
tween his teeth, looks across the ranch with blue
eyes distorted by thick glasses. His blindness has
forced him to hire two drivers, though he appears
otherwise unhampered by his disability.
Bell said his first step in stocking the preserve was
in 1970 when he and his family stopped at a deer farm
in Flagstaff, Ariz., while on their way to California for
a vacation at Disneyland. The idea crystallized at the
deer farm, and by October he hadpurckn
and 10 sheep from the deer farm's
additions arrived from numerous zoos id:
ranches in south Texas.
Most of the Horn B animals arebrowstn
that nibble leaves from the lower brand»
Bell said. These include antelope, deetj
sheep. The majestic European Red Dt{
Fallow deer of England, both oncehuntd!
ty, and the Corsican Mouflon sheep wet
animals Bell bought.
Camels and a zebra once roamed tki
were removed when their temperamentsi
ranch hands and other animals. Elk, alsot
gan to crossbreed with the Red Deer, ad
he sold the two elk. "I wanted to keepi
pure," he said.
A sign at the gate reads; “Warning. Hu!
guarded by trained attack ostrich. ”1
strictly humorous, the ostrich is
treated with respect. One visitor, igi
bird’s front kick, suffered a gash which
stitches to close.
Other animals include an.
pounds the world’s largest antelope; a 1
Deer buck; the elusive Audad sheep i
the Mediterranean; Catalina goats, ab
animal with an unpleasant smell, and tin
low deer, sporting moose-type horns.
Cohahitating with these animals aretk

Request to ease prison
overcrowding refused
United Press International
AUSTIN — Texas officials are pleased that while a
challenge to cramped prison conditions travels
through federal courts, the state will be allowed to
put two to three inmates in cells designed for one.
Supreme Court Justice Lewis Powell refused
Tuesday to block an order that temporarily permits
the Texas penitentiaries to continue double- and
triple-celling.
Without comment, Powell rejected a request by
attorneys for a group of prisoners to dissolve a 5th
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals order that allows the
overcrowding while the case is reviewed by that
court.
The attorneys said no one contended that inmates
deserved a single room but rather there was insuffi
cient space per prisoner.
Last year, U.S. District Judge William Wayne
Justice of Tyler, concluding the situation in Texas
prisons had reached “crisis proportions,” ordered
the state to reduce overcrowding and improve over
all prison conditions.
But the appeals court blocked the order to end
overcrowding until it could hear an appeal of the
case.
Attorney General Mark White said Tuesday he
was encouraged by Powell’s refusal to dissolve the
order. He said the decision allows Texas to continue
with many parts of Justice’s ruling but not with those
the 5th Circuit Court deemed “highly unlikely to
succeed.”
Last June, the Supreme Court issued a landmark
decision on prisoners’ rights, ruling in an Ohio case
that if general penitentiary conditions are adequate,
states can house two inmates in a cell designed for
one. Attorneys for Texas prison inmates argued the
Ohio case did not apply because different conditions
were present.
Texas Department of Corrections spots
Hartley said Powell’s decision supported!
ruling in the Ohio ease.
“The department is pleased with (Tuesk
sion by Justice Powell,” he said. “WeH
decision certainly supports the earlier decs
court in the Chapman vs. Rhodes caseandi
tive of the state order issued by the U.S it
Court of Appeals. ”

At the urging of fiancee Kim Bums, 18, Dickson hopW

He reached through an open sunroof and grabbed them®

A bit self-conscious, the clean-cut blond admitted he #

“I think American kids need a hero figure. I wouldn’t minJ',
because I would set a good example for them,” said the 6-fool;
200-pound Dickson. “I don’t drink or smoke and I exerciseafci
manners and go to church.”
Dickson said if he had to risk his life again for a stranger,! 1
“do it in a second.”
“I don’t like risking my life, but if someone needed help aoJ

Last month’s episode was Dickson’s second major act ofb'
