PLENTY BLUBBER LARDER
FOR ESKIMO CHILDREN
FAIRBANKS, Nov. 1 —Whale
and walrus aplenty have been j
killed by Eskimo fathers to keep
all the little Eskimo boys and
girls roly-poly fat this winter.
King Islanders took 500 walrus,
the Diomede hunters, 700, and St.
Lawrence Islanders. 400, it was
reported in Fairbanks by Gren
Collins, wandering warden of the
Alaska Game Commission.
Lots of Meat
An abundance of Arctic right ■
whales were taken on the north-:
western coast. Point Hope Eski
mos got seven; Point Lay, two;
Icy Cape, two; Wainwright, four. |
Other communities also stocked
their underground caches with
whale meat. Most of the kills.
were 70-footors. The bowheads
wr slain with shoulder-guns and
harpoons.
Considerate parents who have
children in the native vocational
school sent bundles of muk-tuk
(whale skin) “to keep the kids at
Eklutna from feeling homesick,”,
Mr. Sollins said.
The warden reported the seiz
ure last month of 108 un-prime
beaver furs that had been poach
ed by Selawik Eskimos on the
Koyukuk slope.
Mr. Collins left Fairbanks re-;
cently with Pilot Maurice King
for Kotzebue. From the Sound,
he will be flown by King to the \
Killik River, tributary of the Col
ville river, in the Brooks range, j
Purpose of his trip is to determ
ine how numerous the sheep are
in that district. Native hunters
have reported good sheep hunt-,
ing in that part of the Brooks
range, but few white hunters
have been there.
After returning to Kotzebue, he
plans to go by dog team to Point
Barrow.

Police, Short Of Funds,
Make Own Ammunition
Grand Rapids, Mich., Nov. (A1)

NO BALL, NO BASE, yet this is baseball. These two players were caught in dilemma,
seeking opposite goals, in this unusual bit of action in a recent game between Philadelphia and Bos
ton's Bees. Catcher Lopez of the Hub City couldn’t decide whether to turn Pinkey Whitney loose
and grab for the ball, or wait for someone to throw it to him. Whitney, however, didn’t feel like
waiting and reached base safely as the Phillies went on to win.
