Sawk Awk Suco Tclarsen TJnral,'popu
rlarly know as Sport HcAllister, is the
outstanding wit and philosopher cfthe
Copper River Indians, He has a great
knowledge'and skill inmthe secrets of
woodcraft. He knows how'wild animals
act and what they think, and so he con
think along with them and knows 'just
what to expect what they will do.fSport
likes to ®how how he can call ground
squirrels out of their holes. He sits
down necar their burroughs and lets out
|an inimitable squeaking, whistling...
sizzling noise and soon the squirrels
come poking their heads out of their
holes and come up to investigate the
£ig squirrel. For a small amount Sport
| will guarantee to produce the Squirr
| els. Rabbits make a very different n
oise in calling each other, but Sport
I can beat the rabbits at their own cab
ling. When a rabbit calls there is
; usualy only one that cornea in respon
ce but Sport can bring several up to
him at one' time,
