This is Mr. McCullech’s second hunting trip to Southehst Alaska, the first was made last year when he made the trip to Alaska from New York by plane and hunted on Admiralty Island. He is interested in aviation and was an ace during the World War. Others in the party are mak- ing their first trip to Alaska and all are thoroughly enjoying it. Have Ten Bear Though camera hunting forms a principal occupation for the mem- Jers of Mr, Hutton's party, that with guns has been proceeding ‘sucs cessfully as their traphies of ten bears indicates. Four of the big fel- lows are brownies and the others are black. ©On the way north, the Hussar has stopped in all Southeast -Alas- kd towns and considerable time'has been spent cruising and hunting on Prince of ‘Wales Island, Admiralty Island, Baranof Island and the mainland. The Hussar will leave here to- night and will proceed south with plenty of time out for hunting on the way to Seattle. They will pick up the Campbell Church yacht, Westward, which is acting as ten- #der for the party, about 50 miles south of here. Mr. Roach’s Record Mr. Roach, who has had marve- Jous luck hunting and fishing on this trip, yesterday outdid even himself and as a result is scarcely being spoken to by others in the party today. His record was 35 niinutes. from the Westward ashore in a skiff, finding, killing a black bear and back to vhe Westward. But that is only part of thejwin locouwtlve ‘works, [ story, to begin at the beginning— | all the men with the exception of Mr. Roach, got up early yesterday | and left the Hussar to spend the day hunting. He remained aboard, and all dressed up in knickers and oxfords, left the Hussar about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon with the ladies of the party to, go aboard the Westward to p-ay bridge. As they cruised along St. John's Bay, one of the guides remarked that it was just possible there might be a bear on the shore, so Mr. Roach | casually decided to take a try at n,) though he didn't even bother to | jchange clothes. That is where the | record came in, 10 minutes to row | ashore, 15 to find and kill the bear | and get it into the skiff, and 10| back to the Westward. Hosea Sar- | ber, guide from Petersburg, with | the party, is willing to swear to it in case of doubt. And the irony of it was that tie remainder of the party returned from their day's! hont withoot a thing! | The Hussar is one of the largest and most luxurious yachts afloat, and is a barkentine-rigged auxiliary craft, measuring 320 feet in length, 49.1 foot beam and 24.8 foot depth.
