iOTNEil BIG GAME
HUNTING PARTY GOES
SOUTH MUCH PLEASED
Success marked the hunting party
which Mel Horner took the Interior a
few weeks ago and which returned to
Seward enroute back to their homes
in the East. So much so, in fact, that
•long before the hunt was completed
! the men were planning on the time
when they would return to Alaska for
another big game hunt.
The party comprised Dr. C. E. Boys
of Kalamazoo, Mich., Howard Cooper
| from the same city and Dr. C. Gillette.
Niles. Mich., is his home town. Me1
Horner, was in charge and other
guides were Alec Bolem and J. P.
Sherman of Healy. Eric Eckman was
one of the packers.
Leaving Seward on September 12
they went directly to the headwaters
of the Healy river and every member
got their limit of sheep and were im
mensely satisfied with them,
j They then came down to Cantwell,
i where, hunting from the roadhouse of
; Carlson’s, they bagged their 'limit on
i caribou. While in this vicinity Mr.
; Cooper was fortunate in shooting a
I fine grizzly which was the only one
i seen on the entire hunt. The bear "was
| well fured and was far better than
| the average specimen, according to
; Mr. Horner.
Dr. Boys and Mr. Cooper both had
moving picture cameras with them
! and it is said they obtained just as
much sport from shooting with the
camera as they did with guns. In one
; instant they were able to get within
| 50 yards of a silver grey fox carrying
off a ground squarrel, apicture which
they value highly.
Good, bad and indifferent weather
i was encountered on the hunt through
as a whole climatic conditions were
favorable.
This was their first hunt in the Ter
ritory and the next time they come
| back it will be for brown bear. The
; three Easteners departed Saturday
• night on the S. S. Yukon for Seattle.
CHUUTIK
Barney Me Cafferty, section for*
man at Hurricane, Mile 281, with his
crew of three men have their section
! in pretty good shape for the winter^
Hurricane section at Mile 279 is where
I the Alaska Railroad track is the near
! est to Mount Me Kinley, being only
39 miles away. There also is seen the
best view of the gigantic mountain, a
view that is unsurpassed anywhere on
the entire railroad. The late Presi
dent Harding stopped at that point
to see it while enroute to Fairbanks.
* * •
Bill Chappel, section foreman at
Chulitna, with his brother Grant, are
' keeping this section up in fine shape.
Located on a wonderful flat, about a
j mile square, this section is on the ex
! treme southern point of the Chulit
| na Pass, being the entrance point. To
■the North, Indian river and Portage,
| lay to the East where big mining ac
| tivity is under way and to which re
gion leads the new wagon road. Near
Chulitna is some of the greatest grey
ling streams in Alaska and lots of
fishing sports from Curry come here
to spend weeks at a time.
• * •
Hundreds of caribou are now re
ported running between Broad Pass
and Me Kinley Park and plenty of
hunters are coming along for their
winter’s meat supply. It is a shame
to see hudreds of these handsome ani
mals killed and left to spoil for want
of cold storage. This loss is going to
every year and is nothing new to the
folk living along the line. Caribou kill
ed bafore November spoils very fast
and is tainted in about ten days if not
taken very good care and kept cool.

HIGH SCHOOL CLOSED
The Seward High School, in re
pect and memory to the boys who
were drowned yesterday morning,
was closed from 10:30 to noon today.
A number of the students, friends of
the departed, attended the services
aboard the U. S. S. Surveyor.
Miss Marie Helm, who will teach
school at Nenana, was among the in
coming arrivals on the S. S. Yukon,
who continued on to the Interior
yesterday.
J. Spaulding and C. J. Sinder, re
presenting, it is said, London capi
talists, passed thru Seward yesterday
on their way to Fairbanks where
they will be met by Mr. Lemons.
Chas .F. Cadwallader, game war
den, left town yesterday for his
Anchorage home.
Mr. and Mrs. Jack Me Cord departed
for the States Saturday on the Yukon.
Mr. Me Cord returned from the West
ward Saturday afternoon on the S. S.
Redondo and was more or less unde
cided whether he was going directly
South.
Gus Manthey, local resident, who
took a few days off recently spending
them in Anchorage, returned home a
few days ago. It's difficult to keep
track of some of these birds.
