Count Po- ! toscki, though a famous hunter, well known outside his native land, is making his first hunting expedition outside the borders of Poland. He plans to secure specimens for the Polish museum. His hunting has been limited to his own. country heretofore by Poland’'s monetary laws, which prevent the taking of money outside that country. Mr. Blanc has hunted in all parts of the world, but is making his first trip to Alaska. He. is after L e skies, with Jusy envugh sun;hlnc hanging around to make things comfortable.

The two sportsmen are headed for the big game hunting region around Talkeetna, where their guides and packers are awaiting them, furnish- ed by the Alaska Guides. They are chiefly after moose, sheep, and goat, but. will .also try to seeure speci- mens. of other anmil and birl life. “We have 'very few animals left in Europe,” M. Blanc explained, “and anything we can bring back is of interest.” While in Juneau they visited Gov. ' John W. Troy and secured their hunting permits from Clarence Rhode, Assistant Executive Officer of the Alaska Game Commission. They were met at the ship by Mr. Rhode and Harry Watson, Secre- tary to the Governor. Both Count Potocki and M. Blanc are finding Alaska of great inter- est. Two other groups of sportsmen after Alaskan moose, sheep and goats are bound Westward aboard the Baranof: E. R. Edgar nd R. L. arrison, who are to hunt with an Alaska Guides party in the Anchor- age section; and Guy Earl and Ran- som Henshaw, who are to hunt in the Talkeetna section. Mr. Earl, who was formerly owner of radio station KNX, at Hollywood, Cali- fornia, and Mr. Henshaw, accom- panied Count Potocki and M. Blanc on their visit to Governor Troy. Also visiting the Governor was Luke Elwell, well-known Alaskan guide No Fires Tonight!
