CHINESE ADVENTURE"
HAYCOCK NEWS
By Irene Comue
April 28
March 28, Frank Davidovics
and Bert Beltz flew into Haycock.
They took off the next morning
for Fairbanks. Johnny Beltz ac
companied them and at this writ
ing, Johnny is still transacting
“business” in Fairbanks.
April 3 Charlie Atmik came
from Koyuk via dog team. Emily
Pedersen accompanied him and
has remained as a guest of Louise
Porter.
Art Johnson visited Haycock
April 4, while enroute to Nome
with Alaska’s gullwing. Dave
Escholdt was a passenger to
Nome. They both complained of
bad headaches which might be
cured in the coast town. Wally
Johnson was flying Art’s plane
on the same trip.
A small group of friends sur
prised Wallace Porter on his
birthday, April 10. Although a
party was planned, the main topic
of conversation -apropos to the
evening news forecast was Mac
Arthur vs. Truman. A hilarious
game of muck, of course, was in
dulged in by non *- politically
minded people. We do hope Porter
enjoyed his 78th birthday as much
as the guests did.
Carl Apok walked into town
from Koyuk. He visited Carl
Swanson and started toward
Peace River April 16.
Sophie Rylander, Suzie Swan
son, and Irene Cornue skied to
the Landing April 13. The fish
were biting and Saturday Sophie
hooked 35 white fish, a record
catch. We were not ingenious
enough to find a way to get them
all home, however. The return
trip was memorable but not
pleasurable. 'Oscar Swanson ac
companied us 'home.
Henry Adams made a quick trip
to Haycock on April 19. It was
pleasant to get news from Kqyuk
Village again.
Much illness has been preval
ent among the school children the
past month. A five-day illness for
Daphne Kylander culminated in a
trip to Nome. Sophie accompanied
Daphne on the mail plane on
April 20.
Snow has rapidly vanished and
spring has brought into view a
muskrat in the creek and numer
ous cranberries on the hills. Re
cess and noon hours are spent
foraging for fresh berries.
Don Perkins of Council paid us
a quick visit on the mail plane
April 21. Field conditions, were
not ideal so Don did not venture
a longer visit.
Sammy Tucker flew Irene Ccrr
nue to the Moon and Tucker Bot
tling Works at Death Valley,
April 22. The weather and skiing
were ideal. Foreboding Death Val
ley looked extremely inyiting
when viewed from the hospital
ity of a shelter cabin. Charlie
Moon gave no definite data on
the winter’s trapline catch.
Bert Beltz and WalterDowd
(the plumber) of Kotzebue, were
weathered in here April 26, en
route to Nome. As usual, a quiet
evening ensued.
Porter’s tractor and many young
folks went to the Landing April
28. The fish were not biting but
three geese were seen.
