7th Grade Grizzlies in a prelimin

designed by Mrs. Larry Galvin
and Miss Agnes Galvin.
Frank Glaser who with his wife
has been on Nunivak island since
last July, states that he has had a
rugged time making the check-up
on the musk-ox for the fish and
wildlife service. Of the 50 musk-ox
imported from Greenland for ex
perimental purposes he finds that
there are now a total of 44 and
that they are scattered here and
there all over the island which is
about 75 by 45 miles in size, prov
ing that they are well able to sur
vive the rigors of the extreny
weather in that locality. He count
ed six new calves.
He states that they are very
good eating and interlarded with
fat like beef and weigh about 600
pounds each.
Scouting is so popular in Bar

those who are 15 years or older.
There will be 38 in the troop it is
understood.
