Food ranges from flake dough, wing

Just as movie stars switch characterizations so that fans will not tire of them, Hearn points out that radio stars must also vary their presentations in order to re- main in the limelight.

Port Alexander Hunters S Are Sought Near Woe
 wodski Harbor

The U. s. Commissioners Office was today making arrangements to send a search party to Woewodski Harbor to seek Emil Hungerbuhler and Lloyd Fenton, Port Alexander hunters who have been unreported for nearly two months.
 Two or three men well acquainted with the region were being sought to make the trip. They are to be carried to Woewodski Harbor aboard the Coast Guard Gutter Tallapoosa, which will then cruise around that section of Kupreanof Island in an effort to find trace of the missing pair.
 Hungerbuhler's boat, apparently deserted for over month, was found three weeks ago by four natives of Rake. The craft was partly filled with water, and decaying deer car casses were found on the deck, indi- eating that the vessel had not been visited for some time A skiff belong ing to the boat was missing, pointing to the probability that Hungerbuhler and Fenton had left for a short hunting trip and never returned.
 A search made two weeks ago by the Tallapoosa and residents of the section was unsuccessful
