By RON REEVES ttnlmtl SUM Wnlir W hen on s a raindeer, and in Santa Crur it isn't too uncommon with Santa's Village so close, the animal looks ger.tle and cuddly. But it isn't so. If you want the low down on how mean these critters can get. just talk to Jimmie McDonald an 18 year-old Santa Cruz boy who weighs only 127 pounds and has the job of breaking four new reindeer at the park. "I've been bruised, kicked and knocked around since they arrived and have lost six pairs of pants and three shirts in just the last week," Jimmie said. The four deer, which weigh about 400 to 504 pounds each, are steers from the Fred Zumstein reindeer ranch in Redmond, Ore. At the ranch they ran in the fields, and at the village they have to learn to pull kids in Santa's sleigh and Santa himself in the many parades and festivals entered by the park. It isn't an easy job. Jimmie explained: "You always have to be very gentle with them." This is even when an irate deer gets you pinned against a wall, slashes your shirt and skin with razor-sharp front hooves or drags you across the meadow as has happened before. Jimmie said a reindeer never feels the understanding of guilt, as a horse does. This means punishment, as slapping a horse, only panics the animal and makes things worse. "They're not really domesticated. They have all their wild instincts and just don't trust people," he said. Furthermore, the Oregon ranch deer are more trouble than those from the northern wilds, as they have lost their fear of man. Without fear or trust, a deer can be a mighty stubborn creature.

The teenager de-ta's sleigh by Jimmie McDonald. This dares reindeer aren't the gentle animals deer is the calmest of the four and Jim- they appear to be, but van be downright da)igcrous. The breaking began gradually when the reindeer arrived in their padded trucks. The first step is in feeding and letting the deer get to know its trainer. Then comes the first introduction to the halter and eventually the harness which will be hooked to the sleigh. Even a well-trained reindeer is never allowed to come in contact with the people visiting ths park. One of the main reasons is reindeer detest being petted, the natural action of r child. Jimmie explained that the hair of reindeer is hollow and the petting action causes an unpleasant sensation for the animal. Woman's club are cooperating with the new library organization in the venture. Attending the organizational meeting at Harvey West clubhouse were Mrs. Geraldine Work, county and city librarian; Mrs. Thelma Anderson, children's librarian, and Mesdames Carol Stau-dacher, Donald Mungai, Phillip Musson, Howard Berge, Frank Murphy Jr., and Donald Starr Anyone interested in working on the Book Fair or the campaign may contact Mrs. Work at the main library or Mrs. Moll at 426-5095.

The deer do not actually pull the sleigh, as it weighs a ton or so and is set up to carry 24 kids. The sleigh is equipped with an electric motor and merely runs around the track, with the deer walking ahead. When not walking around the track, the deer are displayed in a pen. In parades the deer Dull Santa's sleigh, but are ' led by .he trainer walking along side. Santa also has a powerful brake which he can put on in case the reindeer get "skittish."

To Jimmie reindeer breaking is just a job to help him get through Cabrillo college, which he enters this year. Eventually he plans to get into the sir, but not behind a herd of reindeer.
