Point Hope News
By PT. HOPE CORRESPONDENT
Point Hope has had 55 cases of
the measles in the past three
months. Almost all of these are
children under .six years of age. j
Some of the phones in the vil
lage belong to the Council. The
monthly rental on these phones is
50 cents. There is no charge for |
those who own their own phones, j
The cost of one phone is about
$17. There is no operator. The 25
phones in the village have a com
mon ringing system.
Those who went up the Kukpuk
River to fish had to return. There
was too much ice. Boats could get
frozen in for the winter.
The new school may be ready j
for use in November.
Birthdays in Point Hope are a
time of special feasting. Last week
at a birthday party for Mrs. An
drew Toovak, the following foods
were served to about 20 people
Muktuk, reindeer steaks, baked
potatoes, peas, corn, fruit, coffee,
sourdough round bread, cake, lem
on pie. apple pie, cookies, candy,
jam, butter.
This past month was a poor j
month for hunting. Fall caribou I
and seal hunting begins in October !
and November.
Andrew Frankson is enlarging
his store. An addition is being
built on the south side of his build
ing. He is associated with Traders, !
Inc., of Seattle.
The followng remained at fish
ing camp on the Kukpuk River and
will return home by dogteam later
in the fall: Hilda Weber, Ida Koo- |
nuk, Kirk Oviuk, David and Dinah
Frankson, Beatrice Vincent, Su
zanne Lane, Esther Kingik. Patrick
and Eva Attungana, and Jimmie
Killigvuk. Using hooks and gill
nets, they will catch graying and
dolly varden trout. They fish
through the ice, too. An adult
can sometimes catch two sacks of
fish in one day.

Post Office Dept. Says
Everyone’s Sold on ZIP
WASHINGTON \R — You may
not even know your own ZIP code
number yet, but the Post Office
Departmc nt is convinced already
that the fledgling mail-speeding
program is a smashing success.
The big-volume business and ad
vertising mailers are converting to
ZIP-coded addresses in droves.
What’s more, after only three
months of operation, the depart
ment has won a psychological
battle: It’s made most people
aware that ZIP code exists. And
even if they’re not using it, they’re
talking about it. ZIP is mentioned
in comic strips, cartoons and
crossword puzzles.
ZIP code signs are up in post
offices and on mail trucks and
letter boxes everywhere. Even the
new Meredith Wilson musical,
“Here’s Love,” has a line in it
about Santa Claus’ ZIP code num
ber — 99701.
It will be another month, at
least, before the department can
measure the extent to which the
private citizen is using the ZIP
code number in his return address.
The task of getting the general
public to use ZIP code is a promo
tion job largely up to local and
regional postal officials, the de
partment believes.
