produce to sell than in previous
years. Unalakleet is working on
a sewage and water project and
for extension of roads in that
area. A delicious luncheon was
served at the Unalakleet Lodge.

ner for the group at his restau
rant.

Kotzebue Chamber with Rex
Bowen presiding and much in
terest was shown in the Midnight
Sun Festival.

the hope that there would be more
of them.

HOMING PIGEON OVERDUE
PORTLAND UP) — The female
homing pigeon which left Sitka
June 1 to join her egg-sitting mate
at the D. C. Hemphill residence
still has not arrived.
Mrs. Hemphill is concerned.
“Maybe a hawk has devoured
her,” she said.
Meanwhile, the male continues
to sit on the nest. Mrs. Hemphill
said she would take take care
of the young ones even if his
mate never returned.
FAMILY INCOMES INCREASE
WASHINGTON UP) — Half of
all American families had money
incomes of at least S5,600 in 1960

The reason: Price increases
during the year.

NEW YORK UP) — “It’ll be
smooth sailing to the 1964-65
