Tells Conditions
Kotzebue Area
-
Tom Berryman, veteran trad
j ing store operator of Kotzebue
and the north country, was a vis
j itor in Nome today by plane.
, His business completed, he im
! mediately embarked on his re
j turn trip, but not until he had an
| opportunity to say “hello” to some
! of his oldtime firemds.
’ Tom reported that the muskrat
season this spring was not as suc
cessful as during the past few
years, due no doubt, he said, to
: the late breakup and the fact
j that an unusually severe winter
had been experienced.
The ice at Kotzebue did not
! go out from the bay and in front
I of town until about a week ago,
he declared. The schooner C. S.
j Holmes, a sailing ship, Captain
Charles Backland in command,
arrived at Kotzebue this morning
said Mr. Berryman.
The Holmes is enroute from
Seattle to Point Barrow via way

King Islanders*
Father Hubbard
Arrive at Nome
Aboard the Coast Guard Cut
ter Northland, Capt. Frederick A.
Zeusler in command, returning
from tlie westward yesterday,
were Father Bernard Hubbard,
•‘The Glacier Priest" and about
one hundred sixty or seventy Es
kimos from King Island, who
have been isolated there since last
fall.
“Due to varying weather con
ditions, and tiie generally unset
tled state of the weather in the
Bering Sea section this year, the
King Islanders requested that the
Cutter Northland transport them
to Nome this summer instead of
coming over in their big oomiak
skin boats as in former years"
said Father Hubbard.
“Heap fine ship", “Him nice
man charge White Ship", were
some of the comments heard from
well-known King Islanders today
as they greeted many of their Es
kimo and white friends of the
mainland of Alaska.
Father Hubbard aflso described
progress accomplished by mem
bers of his expedition, which will
remain on King Island until the
fall of 1938.
More than ninety tons of provi
sions and supplies were freighted
ashore from the steamer Der
blay of the Alaska Line, and
placed on the high plateau on
top of the island, while work is
progressing rapidly on the con
struction of their four houses, on
|a cleared spot just above the Es
kimo village, on the rocky side of
King Island.
‘The Glacier Priest” is remain
ing in Nome for about a week
before returning to King Island.
While here, his assistants Ken
neth Chisholm. Ed Levin and his
nephew are in charge of cons
truction work going on for the
housing center. Four Eskimo fam
ilies remained on the Island to
assist them.
Furniture, Refrigerator, Wash
ing Machine, and Mangle in Har
lan's apartment at Hanunon Bldg,
will be for sale soon after arriv
