Today as Capt. Olaf Winther of the Fremont unloaded a 20,000 pound cargo and Capt. John Lowell discharged 10,500 pourids of the black cod from the Fern II, sea- gulls outnumbered spectators. Hungry gulls sat on the dock edge, } in the vessels’ rigging, in the water beside the craft, on the decks, all with eyes on fishermen cleaning a few cod and snapper for their own use. Frequently a more courageous (or more hungry) gull would drop boldly beside a pile of fish, but fishermen were as watchful and chased them away with a quick squirt from the water hose or a hastily thrown handful of salt. At this time of year, all species of gulls in this vicinity flock to places of habitation, and gather in great flocks beneath the wharves and atop waterfront buildings with their only apparent food supply the flot- sam in the harbor or the mussels that cling to piling. ——t-— Sons of Legion Will Have Meet Tonight All members of the Sons of Le- zion are asked to be present for ‘he meeting tonight at 7:30 o'clock in the American Legion Dugout.

Only One Shot The 57-year-old Chief was tend- ing his trap line when he came| upon the bear suddenly. Ungyak had but one shet in his gun. He| fired it into the giant brownie's mouth at close range and then grap- | pled with the charging bear. One of Ungyak’s arms was ripped to shreds and his lungs were pierced before he finally killed the bear with his hunting knife. Then the Chief stood up and | | walked seven and a half miles to his cabin. For a week he was nursed faith- fully by Mr. and Mrs. Marden K. Stiffler, Governmnt teachers at An- chorage Bay, and an unnamed Na- ;U've woman. They administered first aid and then tended him carefully until the Boxer arrived. Miraculous- ly, infection did not set into his wounds. Chief Ungyak is expected to live. 4700-Mile Trip Farrell Northern and Westward Alaska on his seven-week trip. He brought craft products back from King Island, Diomede, Nome. St. Lawr- ence Island and Cape Prince of Wales. Because of ice conditions, the Boxer was not able to call at Un-| alakleet, Teller or Hooper Bay. When the auxiliary engine which controls its winches and anchors was disabled, the Boxer obtained permission to proceed direct from Seward to Seattle.
