MENTAL TESTS FOR BIG GAME HUNTERS
Mentality tests for big game hunters, have been re- j
commended by the Attorney General of Saskatchewan, I
because of the number of accidents through careless- j
ness, such as shooting human beings by mistake for;
animals.
After reading Harry McGuire's article in the Feb-!
ruary edition in Outdoor Life, of which he is an asso-;
eiato editor, entitled ‘Staking Out the Sportsman’s;
Claims in Alaska,” which contains excerpts from j
Robert Frothingham, and with particular reference to!
the remarks directed at The Gateway, we believe not j
big game hunters but big game editors should be given
mentality tests.
They call The Gateway a liar. Pardon us while we
go over in the corner and shed a few crocodile tears, j
We have been called that so many times we rather en
joy it because we always consider the source it comes
from and then we feel so relieved. Besides, what’s a
few’ such endearing terms betw*een friends?
McGuire and Frothingham don’t produce any evi- j
dence in the article except hearsay, with respect to the j
Associated Press report sent by The Gateway relating j
to injuries received by Mike Kalamakoff, of Kanatak,
from an attack upon him by a brown bear. The A. P.
dispatch and subsequent news article published by j
The Gateway appear in the article. Big game hunters!
go out to hunt, don’t they? If the hunter gets hurt, j
well, that’s just too bad. to cut a long story short, Me
Guire and Frothingham have cooked up another good |
filler for the magazine and given Alaska another ex
cellent. publicity broadside. The Gateway started this
darn bear controversy some years ago and as far as we
z*ve concerned Outdoor Life can finish it. In the mean-j
time, we still have the bears with us and we suggest
that Frothingham bring McGuire up to Alaska next
time and take a shot at one. Prior to the journey
he can take all the verbal shots at The Gateway
he may desire. We’ve been shot so full of holes that all
that hot-air coming up from the States, goes through
us like a sieve.
Strawberries may come and strawberries go, but;
the dear old carnivorous, omnivorous bruin is with us 1
always.
Paderewski probably attracts large audiences be
cause he is a magnetic Pole.
Age means nothing if your heart is young.

LIGHTHOUSE VESSEL
[MOTE SCOTCH ESP
TO REPAIR SIGNAL
Enroute to Scotch Cap, one of j
the forbidden parts of the south- j
west shore of Unimak Island, the !
Cedar, Captain Leadbetter, com- \
mander, of the Lighthouse Ser- |
vice, arrived in port Wednesday j
afternoon shortly after 4. The ;
vessel has three months supply |
of ship’s stores aboard.
The mission of the craft is to j
repair the land fog signal at1
Scotch Cap. Seas are so tempes- j
tuous that no mail boat has been !
able to land postal matter this '
winter. The Cedar is under or
ders to stay there until opportuni
ty offers to send men ashore to
repair the signal.
Scotch Cap is a headland 420
feet high at the southwestern most
point on Unimak Island. It owes i
its name to its resemblance to a
Scotch cap or bonnet when seen
in profile. Scotch Cap lighthouse
is about two^ miles east of the
cape.
NENANA ICE TICKETS
The Gateway is printing thou
sands of tickets for the Nenana
ice committee. Judging from the
size of the order the annual event
is going to be greater than ever.
The first shipment of tickets ’Will
be expressed north Saturday.
A TOUGH GAME
The “Tarzans,” famous local
indoor baseball team, climbed all
over the carcasses of the “Gas
town” nine last night in the S.
A. C., for eight innings but at
that crucial point of the contest,
with the score board reading 19
to 7. the gas-works outfit opened
all valves, gassing their oppo
nents to such an extent that
when the smack of bats and j
balls ceased, the story read 19-17. j
The trouble started when Edwin
Sandbeck stopped a fast one j
with his left eye. Twro new stars, i
in tpe persons of O’Neel and!
Hepburn, displayed their stuff
for the first time, and how!
NEW ORGANIZATION
A preliminary meeting toward
eventual formation within the
next few weeks, of the Seward i
Credit Association, persuant. of j
course, to the wishes of local
business men, was held last'
evening. Further announcement ;
as to the next meeting will be an
nounced shortly.
