Depredations Of Wolves In The
Wainwright Section Get Worse
(Continued From Page One)
my travels, so they will have a
feast on the reindeer herd that
belongs to this village. Last year
they killed over one thousand
reindeer and more during the
summer. Some of the deer have
only the tongue eaten out. The
wolves are smart as can be, as
they just stay out of rifle range.
They do most of their killing at
night, and they stay in bands. I
counted one band of over 18
wolves with my glasses. If some
thing is not done to kill off the
wolves, there will be few rein
deer left in a few years, with the
small number that is killed—only
trwo woves were killed here last
winter. It is my opinion that a
lot of the so-called wolves are
nothing but a lot of wild dogs
that got away from their mas
ters years ago, on account of so
many back ones, and they got
bred into the wolf family. Game
wardens would do well to look
into this matter right away.
Well this Arctic Ocean coast is
still open and no heavy Arctic
ice in sight and very little snow
'so far, but we have been having
some cold weather of late. The
new Presbyterian church 60x40
was completed with the help of
some of the Wainwright natives,
and the work accomplished in
30 days. It sure looks good, and
the natives will now have a
place to hang out in and build
their sleds. Percy Ipalook, a na
tive, who has been to college in
the states, is the preacheT here
and in charge of the mission.
The trapping don’t look any to
[good so far this winter as very
few tracks are seen about and
very few pups running around.
There are several Polar bear
' tracks about and now is the time
! if Grant Jackson wants bear
meat to eat, to go hunting, but
it is hard to get them on the ice
j as it is mostly mush ice; but they
do come on the beach looking
for dead seals and walrus, be
(cause they are hungry at this
i time of the year. Alice Allen
| shot at one while out with her
dog team up the coast, she hit
him but the bear got on some
drifting ice and got away. Alice
is a dead shot and not afraid to
shoot at any thing. She shot 4
walrus also this fall, alone in a
boat, and brought the meat home
after cutting it up in pieces.
Some hunter for a 20 year old
girl—she is Jim Allen’s daugh
ter.
The natives are rounding up
their reindeer and they have
about 5000 of the Barrow deer
with the Wainwright herd. The
Barrow deer wander down this
way on account of better feed
down this way. They have about
30,000 deer in this herd.
There is lots of caribou inland
this year—thousands of them—
and lots of caribou are mixed
with the reindeer herds and trav
eling with the reindeer. The
reindeer of the Wainwright herd
are rolling in fat due to the fact
they are not being herded.

TELLER NEWS
(By The Gold-Dust Twins)
Teller, November 23
School reopened this morning
after being closed for the past
week. There has been an epi
demic of colds through the 3is_
trict, affecting the adults as well
as the children.
Hans Mirow made an emerg.

N.B.Tweet to the Nome hospital.
Mr. Tweet who has been extrem

plane to Nome by two of his sons
Norman and Harold.
Mrs. Peterson made a trip to
Ig’oo on business last week. Miss
Ethel Marx returning with her,
will remain in Teller until after
Thanksgiving.
Miss Leake, traveling nurse,
left for Igloo and Hot Springs
on Thursday. Miss Leake spent
several days in Teller and at the
Mission. She reports there is a
noted increase in the population
of the village at the Mission this
year; many families having mov
ed in from Shishmaref & Wales.
There are about thirty children
in school at the present time.
A large empty building near
the Teller Commercial Company
store caught on fire at 2:30 a.m.
on the 13th. The origin of the
fire is unknown. It was, fortun.
ately, soon put out and very lit.
tie damage done.
Another fire, the third in less
than six weeks, started in the
home of Percy Blatchford the
other day when a gasoline light
flamed up and gasoline spilled.
No serious damage was reported,
although the walls had started
burning and the whole kitchen
was aflame before the fire was
put out.
Teller realizes that some equip
ment for fighting fires is needed
badly and several people are tak
ing the matter up.
N. B. Tweet was taken serious
ly ill late the other afternoon &
as there is no communication be.
tween Nome and Teller, Mr.Bak.
er volunteered to go to Igloo, a
distance of 45 miles, where Mr.
Burkher has wireless communi
cation with Nome. From there
they would call a plane to take
Mr. Tweet to the hospital.
The Tweet family wish to ex.
press their sincere appreciation
for the kindness of the people
& to the Nome Radio Telephone
for their assistance and offerings
of help in getting the plane thru
to Teller.
Robby Bernhard, young son of
Albert Bernhardt, was taken to
Nome for medical treatment last
week.
John Read has finished the er_
ection of a warehouse and gar
age. He is now assembling his
“Snowmobile” which arrived on
the last boat and will be ready
to test it out within a few days.
