a most popular institution.

HUGE IROFIiY BAGGED ACROSS RIVER
Last Saturday evening four
mighty hunters left here for the
Knik River bridge site', where they
were ferried over and entertained
by Mr. Littlejohn of the Road Com
mission at his camp.
Bright and early Sunday morning
they were off up the mountain,
grim faced and determined, boding
bad. luck for any of the genus
Capra they might see. But it
seems some Indians were ahead of
them frightening all goats from
tneir patn.
High up the canyon, just when
their legs were beginning to get
springy at the knees, they spotted
game. Ross sheely threaded his un
erring eyo through the sights....
and there was the goat. Just as
simple as that. It was getting
into the afternoon and they had to
hurry. it being Sheely*s game, he
threw the three hundred pound goat
ever his shoulder and they started
down the mountain. Then they saw
.four brown bear in a blueberry
patch. They took some shots at
seventeen hundred yarns (of course
It really w..s getting late) and
succeeded in getting the tears to
do a bewildered merry-go-round.
When they started off again
Don irw.tn insisted, upon doing his
share of the packing. He carried
the five hundred pound carcass
for some distance. Then Sears,
old Hurry-v.p Harry himself, spel
led ii'vin, but going down the hill
was harder than climbing and the
seven hundred pound goat soon be
came a load, colonel LeRoy Hunt,
trained to pack in the Marine Corp
-- map cases, binoculars and the
like -- got his military hardened
shoulders under .the big twelve
hundred pound beast and staggered
into camp with it. '
The trophy can be viewed at
Irwin's game cache. It's the whit,
one...the one that looks like a
rabbit only it has horns instead o.
big » nrs.
