used on the crusted snow. These
treeless Islands offer all the hand
icaps of a steeplechase race with
their bogs, their steep canyons and
numerous lakes and creeks. A few
bucharoos are needed to break in
the reindeer to bridle and spur so
that one may follow the hounds
when in full cry over the tundra.
Trained fox hounds use a strategy
that will mystify the Reynard
which has been used to trap and
gun.

Strange tales are told by some
of the oldest natives about the ar
rival of the Russian fur hunters
more than a half century ago. The
guns of the strangers were con
sidered as magic and natives would
run out in the open to be stricken
by the magic. When the Russian
ship struck the hidden reef and
the ship was wrecked, the natives
attacked the starving, cold, water
numbed strangers and destroyed
! them. Cannibalistic rites were car
| ried out and many were eaten.
On the Pacific Ocean side near
one end of Umnak Island, are the
remains of one of their large vil
lages. The barabaras of this vil
lage were built about frameworks
of whale-bones. On a hill nearby
is a large sand pyramid, erected
.many years ago. This pyramid is
[likely a tomb of some noted war
j rior chief. Its shape is similar to
\ that of the small pyramids over
I the graves of the natives before
Christianity was introduced. Per
haps a new King Tut will some day '
hail from this island.

nak Island and some small nearby
islands this winter. The migration
of the lemmings last winter took
away the natural food of the fox,
so Reynard has been forced to
haunt the seashore and search for
shellfish and sea-birds. This should
make trail trapping easy and a big
catch of red and cross foxes is
expected.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 12. (/P)—
Some of San Francisco’s fireworks
for celebrating the big football
game, the Advent of the Tuike^
and such events blew up prema
turely when two Customs Guard;
surprised a crew of rum runners on
Pier 50 B, near China Basin, and
seized 800 cases of fine liquor;
worth $50,000.
The runners escaped in two au
tomobiles as three bullets whistled
after them, but they left behind s
coupe and two trucks about to be
loaded after a large motor boa1
had backed away from the pier.
