Police chief Hugh Rudity reports a rash of cat disappearances in Portsmouth over two weeks. Detectives questioned boys who admitted selling cats for 50 cents to a man and woman in West Portsmouth. Sherman Bryant, the city dog catcher, bought six cats for use in catching rats on his farm and denies more. A high priced Persian was stolen from a shed but returned enraged, and around 40 cats remain unaccounted for, including pedigreed and alley varieties.
