WHITE FOX PLENTIFUL ON
ST. LAWRENCE ISLAND
A letter from Gambel on St.
Lawrence Island tells of the abun
dance of white fox this year. Even
little boys have shot fox and some
youngsters have their own trap
lines. Bait is very plentiful as
there are tons of tom-cod on the
beach, which accumulated there
due to open water.
