Elk hunting successful

Preliminary results of the
current B.C. hunting survey
show that the 1963 elk-hunt-
ing season was the most suc-
cessful in 20 years.

The survey shows an esti-
mated 10,600 resident hunt-
ers hunted 10 days each for a

milder than average winters
throughout southeastern
B.C. and together with con-
servative hunting seasons,
road closures, logging of
spring and fall ranges and
improved livestock grazing
systems on winter ranges has
recovered to more than
18,000 animals.

However, productive win-
ter ranges have been im-
paired by development and
forest succession in the past
20 years and in some areas
the elk population exceeds

Competition with bighorn
sheep and mule deer as well
as agricultural interests is a
problem. A total of 5,515
limited entry permits were
issued for cow-calf and calf
only elk in 1983 and in 1984
the number has been in-
creased to 9,570.

Regional Wildlife Biologist
R.A. Demarchi said “we have
completely revised the way
that we are managing our elk
population from that of the
1950's and 1960's when the
herds were subjected to gen-
eral open seasons on both
sexes.

“Essentially, there are two
management systems being
applied — one for bulls and
the other! for cows and cal-
ves,” he said, noting that bull
elk are hunted under a
general open season with
restrictions on antler points
but no restriction as to the
number of hunters or the
areas hunted.

“We. have had to shorten
the bull elk season and have

Truth is stranget’ than fiction as John Munday, a
former Castlegar teacher now missionary in Equador,
proves in his latest letter. Read on,

Quito, Ecuador, 8.A.,

Monday, April 16, 1964

Dear Jack and Bunny and Bruce:

Juanita Munday weighed in at seven pounds this
morning when I took her in for her first check-up at
Vozandes Hospital. She is 62 centimetres long, is in perfect
health, has a button nose, rosebud mouth, ivory-white
complexion with black hair and black eyes — big black eyes
that are still learning to focus.

Without exaggeration she is the most beautiful, most
perfect baby I, or anyone else that has taken a peek at her,
have ever seen. She sleeps soundly, has a good appetite and
a placid disposition and arrived here yesterday evening at
5:45 p.m.

Her mother, apparently, is a striking, well-dressed
teenager, probably from a well-to-do family who, in a
moment of desperation, could not face the shame and the
responsibility after leaving the big maternity hospital some
hours before.

She sat beside an older woman on the bus yesterday
afternoon and asked her to hold her baby for her while she
prepared to get off. The young mother got off, all right, but
left the baby in the arms of a perfect stranger.

This same stranger also got off — probably at the next
stop — and when she couldn't find the mother, contacted a
nearby policeman. It was then that someone who knows me
—I still have no idea who this someone was — gave the
woman my name and address. That’s how I became a father
all over again.

We found the baby’s identification still on her tiny wrist
... at least it gave us the information that she was “female”
and born just three days before at 10 a.m., Friday, April 13.
Tl probably have to try to trace the mother, Maria Granizo,
through the hospital I suspect her baby was born in.

And there are already three couples interested in
adopting her, but no one here, from brand new Sara to the
youngest of my “children,” wants me to give her away.

“I'm strongly tempted to keep her myself, but want to
do the best for this “angel unawares.” Meanwhile, she is
Juanita Munday No. 2. (Remember Juanita No. 1? She is
now Karen McMurphy, the delightful daughter of HCJB
missionaries Joe and Pat McMurphy, and is almost two
years old).

This morning, one of my two epileptic sons, 14-year-old
Luis, spent some time with me — at his request — as he
wanted to become a true disciple of Jesus Christ but didn’t
really understand what it means tt “receive Him.”

Within an hour Luis and I were kneeling by my bed as
he poured out his heart to the Lord.

T'm sure he is sincere, and together we're trusting God
for the healing of his physical problem.

April 17, I just received a telephone call from the Blind
Institute asking if I'd take in a 15-year-old albino boy on
weekends and short vacations as he'd like to attend the
Institute but is from another town.

He'd board there during the week. He'll bring our
Diospaj Nan population back up to 28.

If you received my previous letter of just one month ago
you may remember 21-year-old Pablo. His illness has been
described by two different psychiatrists as “paranoia” and
“mystic syndrome” and is receiving p i help in a
private clinic, paid for by his father.

Pablo and his mother are almost brand new Christians
and we're trusting the Lord for Pablo's recovery, though it
will likely be slow. His mother Sara is sharing the upstairs
apartment with my six “daughters” and is proving to be an
ideal “dorm mother,” in addition to her many other talents.

She's a former TV and opera star, speaks Spanish
better than the average Ecuadorian, German, French,
Japanese, Sanskrit, Bengali and English, as she was born in
Birmingham, England.

Because she is part of our “Diospaj Nan” staff — at least
for the present — and because her story is an extraordinary
one, it is worth teljing.

Her father was an orthodox Jew who, at the tender age
of five, waved goodbye to his parents as they walked into the
gas chambers at Auschwitz. His life was spared through his.
own cunning as he donned the uniform of German boy about
his own size and eventually escaped to England.

Her mother was the “Miss Spain” of her day and could
probably have won the crown as “Miss Universe” had there
been such a thing in the 1930s. She was also a Spanish
viscountess whose father, a viseount, (Viconde de Cusso)
was guardian of the crown for King Alfonso of Spain.

When the Spanish Revolution broke out, the revolu-
tionary soldiers broke into the viseount’s home, cut off his
head, and ‘tossed it into the lap of his daughter (Sara's
mother) who was then a ravishing beauty of 19.

When the soldiers began raping the women of the
house, the young viscountess ran into the bathroom and

Somewhere along the line they came to Ecuador, for her
father founded our Bios Chocolate Factory that was
my neighbor in Quito for 12, years.

After her father’s death her mother began her frantic
search for satisfaction through 15 more marriages. Her
spouses included an Indian prince, a Chinese businessman
and a well-known Ecuadorian. It was the Indian prince who
said “no children” as part of the condition for his marrying,
so Sara’s mother sold her younger sisters Cristina and
Gabriela for $42,000.

They are now in Canada aceording to latest reports, but
Sara has no idea precisely where.

A younger half-brother, Carlos, was given away and is
living in Jamaica while her only full-brother, a year or two
younger than Sara, hanged himself on a beach in Jamaica on
March 4, 1968. His name was George.

A half-brother bearing a long, oriental name lives in
Malaysia. George's suicide followed a serious talk between
him and Sara a few hours before, as both were desperately
seeking an escape from their unbearable home situation.

At the time, Sara was in a convent being cared for by
the nuns who were responsible for sending her to Ecuador
where she started her training as a nun at the tender age of
16.

Even then she had an exceptional voice which in one
sense was her downfall. A young man came to paint the
convent, and was so struck by her singing that he fell in love
with the unknown owner of the voice.

loped through d and
finally Sara had her first date that took her to the marriage
registrar's office. She returned to the convent that same
afternoon, but left for good in three weeks time.

That was when she discovered what an unhappy
marriage to a young artist well-versed in the vices of the
Latin world was really like. Nonetheless, she became mother
to four of his children, the last of whom is Pablo.

A decade ago she could take no more and abandoned her
husband, home and children to carve out a new life for
herself in the world of entertainment. She became famous
but could never escape the gnawing pain of guilt. But her
personal with Christ is all that and each
day is a new experience in appreciating God's grace.

Two members of Parliament and a respected dentist, all
ex-cronies of Sara, as well as a wholesaler, have been here
and on hearing her have left ope and,I
trust, open-hearted so far as the Gospel is concerned.

Rodrigo, my blind, 21-year-old, has left of his own
volition and has threatened to embark on a life of crime.
Poor Rodrigo, a former “street-boy” who lost his sight in a
teenage fight, is still filled with bitterness, against God,
against people and against life in general and needs much
prayer. Please remember him when he comes to mind.

This afternoon my Quichua Indian cook, Antonia, and
my 23-year-old maintenance “son,” Nelson, hope to legalize
their marriage and will soon be moving out to their own
apartment in San Antonio. They'll still work here and
despite some irregularities I still love and appreciate them.

Nights continue to be far too short (an average of six
hours in bed) and days continue to fly too quickly. Oh to
be a Canadian cat with nine lives: Ecuadorian cats have less,
I understand.

Every single day brings its traumas and surprises,
largely because I tend to specialize in people. And they
include outsiders as well as insiders. But there is sufficient
blessing and encouragement to counteract the other side of
the coin.

Some of the boys are working on our new road and
entrance way on the lower part oj the property: our goal is
three metres of road per day and we may yet have it
completed by the end of the month.

But my goal for the completion of this epistle is today,
so I'll sign off after thanking you for ploughing through so
much verbage. I thank you too, for your love and concern
shown in so many ways, and for your prayers for all of us
here. God bless you! eg
