PASTIME OF KINGS REVIVED

Falconry, pastime of kings and nobles in the Middle Ages, has been revived in modern America by a little group of Washington, D.C., high school boys. Under the leadership of Frank and John Craighead, twin sons of a scientist in the U.S. Department of Agriculture, these modern falconers capture and train their own hawks, fly them at such game as rabbits and sparrows, and at last willingly turn them loose as free birds, to live their own lives of fierce liberty.
