DON IRWIN, JR.,
GETS FIRST MOOSE
OF ’50 SEASON
The first hunter of luck in the
current moose season was Don
Irwin, Jr., it was reported today
by Harry Ryan of Palmer Cold
Storage. Donny bagged the an
* imal the first day of the hunting
season, and has been dining often
on moose ever since. He’s trying
to eat enough to satisfy him
through a long moose-less winter
at Oregon’s Willamette Univer
sity.
Caribou have been checking in
at the Cold Storage with such
clocklike regularity that em
ployes haven’t had time to stop
and identify the faces of hunters
who bring in the animals. Rec
ords are being searched now for
the name of the first successful
caribou hunter. His name will
be published next week.
Caribou are much more plenti
ful this year, than they were last
season, Mr. Ryan reports. Moose
also appear to be in good supply.
Both caribou and moose are in
excellent condition, the storage
owner said.
PROCEDURE NOT FIXED
FOR APPLICATION
FOR AHA HOUSES
The sidewalk superintendents
who have been eyeing the 25 holes
in the ground in the ARRC sub
division, destined to become the
basements of 25 new houses be
ing built here by the Alaska
Housing Authority, needn’t cul
tivate that possessive air of own
ership for a while yet. The pro
cedure by which an applicant
may request one of the houses
hasn’t even been established yet,
according to E. Glen Wilder, AHA
director.
Mr. Wilder said that when ap
plication lists are opened, prob
ably within the next two months,
half of the homes will be offered
on first priority to veterans ol
World War II, and all of the re
maining houses will be allotted
on first priority to one-year resi
dents of Alaska.
Mr. Wilder explained that his
office can’t talk to interestec
buyers yet, because the sale price
of the houses is not even knowr
at this time. That sale price wil
depend upon the exact cost o
4onstruction, which will not b<
nown until the houses are par
tially built.
