The town has been rclaiivelv uuiet since the Miners Day Massacre a week and a half ago in which 8 of Park City's warring Dons were splattered into their spaghetti and rubbed in their ravioli, but the past weekend saw "a wave of violence unmatched in Park City in recent years. On -Saturday morning the hells in the Holiday Inn lower slopped ringing. A maintenance man. sent to investigate the ominous silence, discovered a stiff in ihe erection. Police were' miardcd as to the identity of i he lne corpse, but erection sources tell us it was local Don Kick "Pretty Boy" Prince., legal counselor and pan '"-owner of the hotel. Prince had been fearing ah attack from a nearby coalition coali-tion of real estate Dons and had been seen in a healed conversation with two rather rotund representatives of the tea red firm shortly before he "bought the farm." The corpse, who had been strangled with a string of twinkling decorative lights, was found wedged into the erection in such a way as to block the bell ringing mechanism. mech-anism. Upon removal of the obstruction, the Holiday Inn once again resounded with music. Later in the day a surprise incident took place at the Park City Ski Corp.. when Merle "Mountain Man" Huscfh of Royal Street Land Co. appeared in the office of Craig "Bad Man" Badami. Badami and Huselh have been openly fueding since Huselh announced his intention inten-tion to control Park City "Recreation" with the opening open-ing of his ne.w Deer Valley Resort. In Saturday's occurance Huselh. accompanied by his protection squad; broke into , Badami's office armed with sawed off ski poles. Badami, a sportsman to the end. proposed to wage the fight on familiar turf and the two Dons, weapons in hand, boarded a nearby chair lift. In the ensuing battle, witnessed wit-nessed -only by the ski patrol cadres of each Don, "Bad Man" Badami struck the first blow with a ski pole to . the heart. "Mountain Man" Huseth retaliated with a tip in the torso. Both men collapsed and were rushed under heavy guard to a local hospital. Their condition is not known at this time and it is too soon to tell if either l the ski industry Dons wil! remain in the running ir control of the city. After a night of tense calm, marred only by late night telephone threats, the city once again witnessed scenes of brutality on Sunday morning. At 9:00am Don Vic "The Realtor" Ayers was given the royal flush by a still unidentified hand in a local commode-. Inside sources sour-ces believe his ignominous end was a retaliation by the forces of rubbed out Don "Pretty. Boy" Prince. Later in the day witnesses watched the Swede Alley Mall, one of Dolly's famed Deer Valley Does, drag the unconscious' form of John 'Slide Man" Prince to the tracks adjacent to the Park City depot. By the time police arrived the 'train had passed and the tethered form, bound hand and foot to t he rails with . lengths of silk stockings, was a lifeless lump. Word has it that Prince was wiped out by the Does in retaliation for the downgrading of the Deer Valley neighborhood by. the presence of Prince's RR cars. The Does claim that business in their "entertainment establishment, a center of . gentility and cultu re frequented fre-quented by Parkites of the most refined "order has suffered drasticallv since the appearance of the cars and that many of the Does are being forced to take positions outside of their profession.
