SEATTLE, (A*) — When parents,
in Detroit tell the kiddies about
the Christmas reindeer coming
from up near the North Pole, in
the best “Night Before Christmas"
tradition, they won’t be far wrong.
Ten of them, destined for an au
tomobile display in refrigerated
quarters in Detroit, arrived here
in crates on an Alaska Airlines
plane last night.
The animals, all yearlings and
weighing about 135 pounds apiece,
were rounded up near Nome by
Edwin Butters of Coldwater,
Mich. They were to be given a
chance to recover from their “air
legs’’ here before flying east.
