Attack (Continued from page 1) the urge to eat! "The first attack was by a large beast who took one look at the boat from about John R.Hawkins Graduate Enters Duke University Miss Thurletta Maureen Brown, a 1967 honor gradu ate of John R. Hawkins High School, was one of some 1300 freshment and transfer stu dents enrolling at Duke Uni versity on Friday, Sept. 16th. Miss Brown was accompanied to Durham by her parento, Mr. and Mrs. Thurston Brown. On the agenda for the hundreds of parents assembled on the campus were meetings with University administrative of ficials and a reception at the home of Women's College Dean Margaret M. Ball. An assembly for freshmen scheduled for Friday night at 7:30 p. m, was the beginning of a full week of orientation with tests, interviews, confer ences and luncheons. A special treat planned for freshmen by the University was the issuing of reserved tickets and the announcing that busses would carry them to Raleigh to the Duke-Wake Forest football game. Miss Brown was among the more than 22,000 who were crowded in Carter Stadium who saw the Blue Devils topple 100 yards off and then came against the current straight at us. I realized what was happening and started to turn the boat around to meet it head on. We managed to glance it at about 15 degrees but, even so, it shot out of the water and snapped at the side of the boat." "The vessel lurched ter ribly as I wheeled it away in an attempt to shake loose and we shipped a lot of water," Leakey continued. "The croc had caught hold of the boat at the stern, son.e eight inch es from where I was, and the violent turn shook him off. We ran the boat into the bank and evacuated at high speed! "After half an hour, armed with clubs, etc., we set off upriver again, assuming that normal crocs would not take on a boat with a noisy engine. However, less than a mile up stream, another giant spotted us and started towards us at a fantastic speed. We were no more than 30 yards from shore, and it was more than a 100 yards from us. By the time we made the bank - a direct route - he was only 30 40 feet away! I had seen enough and we walked some six miles back to camp and fetched the boat later by means of the ferry." Will Outspeed Crocs The National Geographic Society quickly supplied Leakey with funds for a larger, faster, safer boat. Leakey, 22, and his wife, Margaret, an English-born anthropologist, head the Kenya section of an International Ex pedition organized recently to THL RLETTA BROWN the Deacons 31-7. Several upperclassmen had arrived on the campus earlier in the week and were on hand to welcome the freshmen and assist them in moving into the dormitories.
