CII11BALS ONCE HID
STEW POT DIG FULL
Evidence that prehistoric inhab
itants of Kodiak Islands were can
nibals, has been disclosed by Dr.
Alex Hrdlicka, anthropologist of
the National Museum
This discovery is new to science
and marks a step forward in the
knowledge o f prehistoric Alaska,
he said. “I was astonished to find
extensive and unmistakable traces
of cannibalism among inhabitants
of the old site where I was exca
vating,” he declared. “Human bones
plainly cracked in order that mar
row might be eaten from them were
scattered widely through layers of
old house refuse. Such traces have
never before been found in the far
North.”
THE WATER WAS FINE
Skiing in the moonlight in Sew
ard has given way to skiing in the
glare of the footlights. Last even
ing, a number of skiing enthus
iasts assembled on the steep hill
in back of the Seward General
! Hospital for an evening of sport.
' However, the moonlight was not
! sufficient to furnish enough light
iso two flood lights were arranged
by Dr. A. D. Haverstock from the
hospital building. One floodlight
illuminated the top of the hill and
the other light lit up the bottom.
Many spectators, observing the il
luminated hill and the varied pos
es of the skiiers as they zoomed
down the hillside or came to ar
abrupt stop, were attracted to the
scene.
BETTIES HEWS
The Gateway correspondent al
Betties writes that a wedding took

November 30 and 31. Sam Du bin;
was the bridegroom and his bride
was the former Mrs. Cora B
Charles.

Very little fur is coming into the
Betties vicinity this season; there
are just a few marten, ermine
weasel and muskrat.

| The caterpillar tractor which
i hauls grub to Wiseman, became
I stalled in snow drifts several times,
[necessitating the use of much gas
land it is thought it might prove
impossible to haul the balance ol
the provisions to Wiseman, as gas
is short—abcut 10 tons of provis
ions may be left in Betties.
There is practically nothing to
report on mining operations in the
Betties area.
