Displays 3 Wolves
And An Eagle
Although several parties of deer
hunters were unsuccessful in bag
ging trophies over the week-end,
three wolves and a young eagle
are being displayed at the Ton
gass Trading Company store at
Ketchikan, says a recent issue of
the Ketchikan Chronicle.
The wolves were taken recently
by Peter A. Miller while hunting
at Polk Inlet. They will bring
him at least two prizes in the an
nual contest sponsored by the
local store.
The eagle, shot by Thomas Lar
son at Behm canal, is the second
displayed in the contest this sea
son.
Mr. Miller explained that he
was hunting for deer near the top
of a mountain above Polk Inlet
when he saw a family of four
wolves. He said that the animals
were in the open country. He
shot two from a distance of near
ly 200 yards, he said, and a few
minutes later killed the third bad
wolf.
He dragged the animals part
way down that night and the
next day he and his wife brought
them down to his boat.
Boat Motor Fails
Mrs. Miller went out to find her
husband after he was several
days overdue in Ketchikan. He
had left ten days earlier to do
some work on his floating trap,
but had stayed longer than he
anticipated. However, he said, ‘‘I
wasn't lost at any time.”
When they were ready to re
turn to Ketchikan, the motor in
their boat, the Mabel M, failed to
start and they were towed to
Skowl arm cannery by John Pet
er’s boat, the Tyke. The Cyane
went out to Skowl arm to tow the
Mabel M back here.
Saturday, the first deer killed
by a woman and entered in this
year’s contest and two other d; er
were displayed at the store. Mrs.
Ruth Jackson entered a seven
point buck bagged at Gedncy
Pass. It will bring her several
prizes.
A spike buck killed by William
Huff and a twopoinf buck shot by
Ed. Eckenberg. both at Polk Inlet
also were displayed at the store.
Eckenberg will win at least one
prize for his 121-pound animal &
Huff will get at least two prizes
for his 7312 pound trophy.
