        Zepho Beck is afflicted with "Kastoranthopy" as Professor Voam
describes it. Sort of like a werewolf only in Beck's case he turns into
a beaver under the light of the full moon.  He sneaks out of the house
and gnaws down a tree and deposits it at a beaver dam as the beavers run
for their lives.  His wife Rhodie watches in horror each month.

        Rhodie has consulted indians who point out others afflicted with
Kastoranthropy. She says there are enough to populate a large lake.

        Rhodie proposes that Zepho Beck has a tree cutting contest with
the mighty Stig. She hopes to make a fortune out of it.
