Rumy Lake, B.C., (UP)—Sasquatch and Cadbororsaurus, each of whom would be the “catch of the year” for any zoo in the country, remain allergic to the 20^th century.

Cadborosaurus, in fact, hasn't been heard from in many months. Previously, natives and fishermen

claimed to have obtained frequent, although momentary, glimpses of "Caddie" the sea serpent as he

glided along the western Canadian coastline.

Then there's Sasquatch. Ten feet tall and covered with shaggy brown hair. He completes the other half of British Columbia's prize pair of primeval relics.

Sasquatch supposedly emerged from the forests a short time ago. Indians long had claimed the existence

of a tribe of hairy giants not far from the Washington State border. The native word for giant is "Sasquatch."
