John Akon Dies
While Digging Grave
A rather bizarre death occurred
here last Wednesday when John
Akon suffered a heart attack
while digging a grave at the
Belmont Point Cemetary.
He was about 60 years old and
when younger had been known
variously as “The Blonde Eski
mo,” and “John the Blond.”
Funeral services will be con
ducted from the Covenant
Church, tomorrow afternoon at
.2:00 o’clock.
Blanket Tossing
Missed Sunday
For the want of a blanket the
tossers were shorn. Whether or
not the paraphrase is right, there
was no blanket tossing yester
day since the “skin” was torn
during the tossing a week ago.
However, a new blanket is ex
pected in today from St. Law
rence Island.
John McNees said today that
the Eskimo sports events will be
resumed next Sunday. They will
start an hour earlier than before,
at 12:30 and run until 2:00
o’clock.
