Lake Onderdonk ByDAWNSOPER Barney (\Spec\) Fowler is not the only one having trouble with polecats this summer. Liz and Bob Shelford had one in their basement for about a week. The timing could not have been worse. It was the week before the Lake Association dinner. Bob was responsible for the entertainment and had stage props in his cellar on which he wanted to work. The small critter had gotten in through a tiny hole next to the basement window. The only easy exit was through the living room! Bob called EnCon for advice. They do not come and set Have-a-heart (traps for free like they used to. They advised building a ramptoithe/open window. This he did, - Then he called me to borrow our Have-a-heart trap. I took it up and showed him how to set lit, I went down and looked for ithe skunk, 'but did not see him anywhere, il offered to set the trap for Bob, but he insisted he knew how to do it. I think he and Liz thought I was going to scare their little Mend. Weill, Bob set the trap correctly, but beside putting food on the itripitray in the trap, ihe put' it all around the trap. This skunk was not dumb. He ate all the food outside, tripped 'the trap from outside, and went back up into the insulation for another nap. Bob and Liz gave him pieces of melon, two boiled eggs, sardines and whole wheat bread with honey. By this time the skunk thought he was at Grossinger's or the Concord and he decided to stay all winter. Along about Wednesday evening Bob went down quietly and looked all around: No sigh of the little fellow, so he thought, \Good* lie's gone!\ and he started cleaning up the torn insulation under the cellar stairs. The skunk fell from somewhere right on the 'back of Bob's neck, Bob shrieked,, threw him off and ran upstairs and slammed the door. Bob called John Bylsma hoping to get a bigger trap, but John's was just like burs. Bob called Rudy Florentin, hoping to get some knock-out drops to put in some water, but no luck. Bob called Frances Bishop and got some more good advice. Time was moving on and Bob had deadlines. He called EnCon again. Their girl was going on vacation, but she would come up and set a bigger trap at Bob's expense, but he would have to unload it and bring it back. As you might have guessed, that night the skunk walked up the ramp and left. There was just too much human confusion around there for a peaceful skunk. He also needed a drink. Incidently he was a gentleman the whole time. Someone was playing one fantas- tic horn over across the lake late Friday afternoon. We guessed it was Art Case.. The sound- was too good to interrupt with a phone call and no one answered later. Please do it again. We enjoyed it. Alan Schwartz is putting a new roof on Darwin and Dorothy Hinsdale's porch roof. They have what used to be the Hebauf camp on Echo Point Road. Dorothy and I swim a great deal. It is ithe only summer way we knowJto exercise and cool off at the same time; My old fella attended the auction at ithe Stanley Furman farm on Saturday. He has not been to an auction in some time and he said it was good to see Doug Cater and Doug. Cornwell in action again. Doug Cater told him he had his first auction at Minnie Bernsteinls 20 years ago! Doug used to do (the auctions for ithe lake association and did a good job. . George Northrupte brother Harold and his wife were there and got a good bargain. This week's quote: \Wed. Nov. 11, 1903, Tomp clearing up around. Mr. and Mrs. E. Gray called. \Thurs.
