Hot on th VANCOUVER (CP) - Bob Titmus’ was a_ total disbeliever in 1958 on the subject of the Sasquatch. “T was getting sick and tired of people c to me and describing strange tracks and asking if they were Sasquatch tracks,” he said. ‘I'd never seen the tracks, so I couldn't answer, but I certainly didn’t believe an animal could make kind of tracks they were describing.” Titmus, 58, a renowned hunter, tracker and guide in California, changed his attitude on Sasquatches when a friend brought him 4 paper outline of a track. His jend made a plaster of paris cast the next time he came across one and Titmus was convinced no animal he knew could make footprint to match that in the cast, Titmus has found many. more tracks and: “that was enough to get me hooked.”’ His search has taken him from north of Fairbanks, Alaska, to Mazatlan, Mexico, and he has since amassed the largest collection of original casts in the world. He admits, however, that as scientific evidence such casts are useless. Titmus has collected large quantities of hair and fecal matter from Sasquatches and sent it to analysts all over the world, but they have been unable to identify the source. SCIENTISTS ; DISBELIEVERS Titmus said scientists do not generally believe in the existence of the Sasquateh. “This is a giant primate, perhaps the first cousin of man, and people won't believe in it,” he said. “Some scientists dismiss it. out of hand, without even looking at the evidence." He said scientists will onl believe in the Sasquate. when one is brought in, alive or dead. He now is trying to devise a method of catching one, The first time he saw a Sasquatch he was close enough to believe whatI was seeing.” “DEATH PAYS IN DOLLARS” - Stars Jolin For- cythe, Dominique Baschero.

We're not selling laundry bags and all the rest of that stuff.” Two large -apothecary globes filled with colored water hang in front of the prescriptin counter—‘‘a sign of a- real good drugstore,” says Astley. 2 tore, I plaques attest to Astey’s ques a ley’s service as the Governor: General’s pharmacist from 1921 to 1946.
