presentatives reported that a
survey conducted Sept. 9 re
vealed that unseasonably warm
w eather and unusual insect ac
tivity appear to be keeping the
caribou at high levels in the
mountains.
Profit from your mistakes
and you'll have a prosperous
business.
A caribou herd ot approxi
mately 5,000 animals was lo
cated in the hills two to five
miles south of the Denali High
way between Mileposts 81 and
86. Hunters are cautioned, how
ever, that a substantial back
packing job is in store for them
in that area.
Smaller groups of caribou
were located between the Mac
laren-Clearwater drainages and
Mileposts 67 to 78 on the Denali
Highway, but they remain in
high country and a change in
weather is needed to precipi
tate movements into areas
where they wil be accessible to
hunters.

Young Republicans
Want Big Borough,
Disapprove Means
Although members of the
Anchorage Young Republican
Club approve the principle of
the large Captain Cook bor
ough, they disapprove of the
manner in which the wishes of
the people have been dealt
with, according to a statement
issued by the group on Sept. 5
“When a state commission,
an agent of the people, can
pigeonhole the legal petition of
one group and declare invalid
the initiative efforts of another,
it would seem that our state
has lost one of the basic ideas
of democracy,” the statement
said.
“We do not happen to agree
with borough opponents, but
their right to disagree is more
important to us than any
county, parish, or borough.
Therefore we urge the people
to approve the Captain Cook
borough, and by their choice
of candidates oppose these
methods of dealing with our
fellow Alaskans.”
