 Arctic Wolves
Biological Survey Man For merly Was Located at
 Juneau in Game Work

To make Juneau his headquar- ters and from here to carry on wolf extermination in the Territory, Harlan Gubser, former predatory animal trapper in Alaska, arrived here on the North Star with his family.
 MT. Gubser, who spent some three years in Juneau and Fair banks, comes now from Idaho where he carried on work for the Biologi- cal Survey. His first plan here is to confer with the Governor, In- dian office and Alaska Game Com mission to map out program for ridding the Territory of wolves, which are reported especially bad along the Arctic Coast where they are killing hundreds of reindeer.
 An old-time trapper, MT. Gub- ser recalls that the first time he met I. N Gabrielson, his present chief, who is now head of the bio- logical survey, the latter came to his trapper's cabin in Idaho and spent a night sleeping on the floor.
