Jim Dawe | Gets Bounty And Veniso COBOURG ~-- Northumberland County's first open deer season was not a success for many hunters. Town streets throughout the county were noticeably less busy during the week, with many men away hiking through the bush hunting deer. Although there were reports that the bush was alive with deer, not too many of the hunt: ers brough back venison. Excep- tional was the case of John Hee. nan, 18, and Ray Appersley, 22, both of Cobourg, who had all their deer hunting expenses 'paid by good shooting On one of their first days out after deer, John saw and shot a female wol., reported to be worth $75 bounty, Then, on Friday, Appersley shot a deer, and the of the Combines was in the cooler at the time | Jon Fisher fired the insurance champs.

Police closed a well - known Rome restaurant indefinitely af- ter a woman identified by them as Miss Aiche Nana, a Turkish ballerina and fashion model, had impulsively jumped on to a table and done a strip-tease to cha cha cha rhythm at a party there Thursday.
