Madsen Featured
In Magazine
The October issue of Out
door Life carried a story of a
Kodiak bear hunt mentioning
three local big game guides.
The article was written by
Kenneth K. Irving of Muncie,
Indiana. In the spring of 1951
Irving, Mrs. Irving and their
13- year old son Don, wrote Alf
Madsen asking for information
on hunting Kodiak bears. Mad
sen planned a hunt for them
in the Karluk Lake area.
The Irvings flew to Kodiak
and Madsen, Eli Metrokin and
John Morton accompanied
them to Karluk Lake. All of
the hunters shot a Kodiak
bear.
Madsen’s picture and a pic
ture of his dog, Murphy, are
shown in the magazine. Jake
Blanc was cook fortheparty\
and is mentioned in the
article.
Mrs. Irene Squartsoff has
announced that her daughter
Leta will marry Douglas Lohse
on November 9, at the Russian
Orthodox Church.
