Fluoride Not
Effective, Says
Commissioner
Dr. Charles R. Haymen, acting
commissioner of health, reported
that the Alaska Department of
Health and the Alaska Dental as
sociation concur with the American
Dental association in their opinion
that tests on flouride toothpastes
have not proved the dentifices ef
fective in preventing tooth decay.
Dr. Howard O. Hughes, president
of the Alaska Dental association
commented that while only the An
chorage area now has flouridation
of its water supply in the Territory,
it seems advisable to remind resi
dents that studies on effectiveness
of flouride dentifrices are still un
derway and may not be completed
for a year or more.

Charles Cloud
‘Bearly’ Escapes
Chales Martin Cloud of Eadger
road had quite a start recently.
He was walking down the trail
somewhere along the Chena when
he suddenly came upon a black
bear. The two stood and eyed each
other for a short time and then
1 Cloud took off in a dead run for
! his truck to get his rifle.
He dashed up to the truck, pulled
; open the cab door and reached for
j his gun. Then he looked up. There
: sat a second bear behind the wheel
of his truck.
He jumped back from the truck,
lopked around to see if “bear num
ber one" was around. He wasn't,
so Cloud shot “bear number two."
As he was trying to drag the body
of the dead bruin from the truck,
he heard a rustle behind him. When
he looked around, there stood his
first "companion."
Cloud had no alternative when
the bear, started toward him but to
shoot the animal.
He dressed both animals and the
Fish and Wildlife Service picked
up the hides. The meat was given
to the Davis Children’s home at
1461 Laurene.
Stan Fredericksen, game manage
ment agent for the FWS, said that
Cloud had shot a hole right through
the windshield of his cab when he
got "bear number two.”
