Tyonek Oil Bill
May Aid Natives
The Tyonek area, on the Alas
ka Peninsula across Cook Inlet
from Kenai, is again in the news
because of its potential vaiue for
oil, gas and coal.
Proximity to the state lands
recently leased on competitive
bidding for a return to the state
of approximately 7 million dol
lars has intensified interest in
the 27,000 acres of the Moquaw
kie Indian Reservation which was
withdrawn by the Secretary of
the Interior in 1915 for educa
tional purposes, and the economic
advantage of the people of Ty
onek.
Since legislation is necessary
to enable mineral leasing within
the withdrawn area, Rep. Ralph
J. Rivers (D-Alaska) has intro
duced in Congress a bill which
would authorize the native vil
lages of Tyonek to lease this land
for oil, gas and coal mining sub
ject to the appi’oval of the Sec
retary of Interior.
Union Oil Hunter
Brings Back Ram
In Trophy Class
Harold W. Jones, Standard Oil
drilling foreman in the Swanson
River Unit, went on his first
sheep hunting trip last week and
returned Friday with a 7-year-old
ram with full curl horns in the
trophy class.
Jones flew in to the Tustumena
Lake area with Ralph Gaetano,
game guide from Naptowne, and
they landed on Gaetano’s air
strip at the top end of Funny
River and had to climb over three
miles. The ram was taken at
about the 4500-ft. level below the
Harding Ice Field.
The Jones family, which in
cludes Jones’ wife, Maurine, and
their daughter, Pat Kettles, and
her t.vo babies, all living in Sol
datna, are enjoying sheep steaks
and roasts. Jones, however, is
mostly interested in getting back
that trophy head, which he has
sent to Seattle to have mounted.
