TO THE RESCUE OF .CAME
In lessen*s Weekly we read an account of a
rolf chase given by a Bush’Pilot in the II’s
kokwim area. It seems that this Bush Tilot
on one of his trios, caught sight of a moose
at bay before four hungry -wolves. The Pilot
saw the moose repel several attempts of the
rolves to lane it by cutting the muscles in
his hind legs. At this point the nilot op
ened his motor ride and zoomed dorm toward
the wolves. He- then chased everyone-of them
far several miles over a barren hill. After
chasing the wolves away he returned to see
what the* noose was doing, and found that he
had moved only a matter of a fey feet from
his earlier position-probably from either
fear or exhaustion.
Prom the Forty-ITinth Star we learn, of a grue
some scene which ilex Shellabarger encounter
ed on one of his trips to Anchorage.
In this case he saw a moose wallowing through
deep snow with a large brown bear riding on
its back. 'Then he circled the scene, he saw
that the brown bear was literally gating the
moose alive, chewing on its head, back and
nock. As Shellabarger was armed only with
a 25-20 he hardly dared encounter the brownie
He did land, but realized that it would be
folly to try a one-in-a-thousand shot.
As he took off from this scene he noticed
four wolves waiting not far from the,scene
of the slaughter-probably waiting to clean
up on the kill, he thought, he landed again
and shot at the wolves, crinling one of then
and scaring them all.

Fortunately, the fact that the customer
legally does ovm the cooperative gives
cooperative management an advantage over
corporate management. There remains only
the little problem of convincing the mem
ber that his ownership is real and that ho
himself counts as a man. K. E. 3-:bcock
