WASHINGTON, July 12.

DEER MIGRATE TO CENTRAL INDIANA

ROME. July 12 (UP)—The air and naval battle which began early this week between British and Italian forces in the Mediterranean still is in progress, an official announce-

A communique said Italian war planes in waves continued the attack on British naval units in the

Malta zone.

The British naval units, according to the official announcement, which the Italians bombed heavily from the air, were escorting five heavily la lea merchant ships heading eastward. The convoy, according to the Italians, was composed of two warships .one aircraft carrier and :

Mason Vermillion, Owen county game warden but whose residence is in G eencastle, tells an interesting story concerning one of the deer which are now inhabiting particularly the southern part of Indiana having been started there by releases by the state Conservation department. The deer do not ”stav put” however, taking advantage of thei • ability to travel far and fast to visit other areas. th's particular specimen applied at the home of Mrs. Mike Traub, three miles north cf Spencer, and not far from state road 43. Mrs. Traub was working in the garden when the deer appeared at the fence, watched her awhile, and then hoppel over the fence, went up to the woman and enjoyed her petting. It lay down near her and stayed there until the barking of a dog caused it to leap to its feet and dart off, surmounting the fence again in a long flying jump. Some of these deer, which are the Virginia white tail species, have come Into Putnam county at timos this season and have aroused deep interest from persons who have been close to them. Mr. Vermillion says his department estimates there are now some 750 of them living in complete freedom in the state.

heavy anti-aircraft fire Italian airplanes scored many hits, sinking one ship and seriously damaging two destroyers. One aircraft carrier was hit and fire broke out aboard it. The communique said four British pursuit planes which took off from the aircraft carrier were shot down in flames. During the battle anti-aircraft guns on Italian cruisers shot down five British torpedo-bearing planes and three bombing planes, one which still was loaded with bombs, ! which exploded as the plane hit the water, the communique asserted. Tn North Africa Italian aviators and light ground columns conducted operations ’’beyond the Curcnaica frontier,” presumably in the AngloEgyptian areas of eastern Egypt. Some enemy armored cars and tanks were destroyed or captured, the Italians said. Referring to earlier Mediterranean operations the official Italian news agency Stefani said today that Britain's great battle cruiser Hood had burned for several hours after it had been hit by two heavy Italian air bombs off the Balearic Islands and that it would be laid up for

months.
