LAC LA HACHE Boy Has Narrow Escape From Moose Larry Vedan, who is 11 years old, had an exciting encounter with a bull and cow moose on his way home from school. He was walking on a trail through thick bush and neither he nor the moose had space enough to make a quick get-away. The old bull must have figured that he was cornered as with the hair bristling along his neck and head low, he charged the boy. Luckily there were trees handy, and Larry was an old hand at climbing them. As he dragged his feet up into the higher branches he could feel the hot breath of the moose on his ankles. The cow and the bull milled about the tree for about an hour but finally gave up and took off into the forest. AT THE Badminton tournament at Forest Grove Sunday Lac La Hache won 16 out of 24 games.
