Famed Oldtimer Who Made
 Own Teeth EmbalmS Self
 As Last Act Inventive Genius

FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Dec 13 - Edwin A. Robertson, with his dying breath. played his trump card against the wolves.
 Robertson, 84-year-old Maine man who had travelled the frozen trails of Interior Alaska most of his life, set out November 14 from his lone ly cabin on Seventy mile river for Eagle, near the AlaskaYukon Ter ritory border and less than 100 miles from the Arctic circle.
 The route was bitter cold, untray- eled and without shelter. As dark ness overlook him, he attempted to build a fire beside a glacier stream where a little water still trickled over the ice. The fire would not burn; and Robertson, to the howl ing of the wolves Gas U. s. Con- missioner R. E. Steel reconstructed the scene), prepared to die.
 A searching party found his body beside his gun, the remnants of his fire, and the wolf tracks. But the wolves had been cheated, in the end.
 Robertson, before he died. lay down in the glacial stream, with his parka pulled over his head and his arms folded.
 His body, before the wolves came, was encased in a solid tomb of ice.

Pilot SChWamm
 Back From South
 With New Plane

Armed with a new rating quail lying him to give student and ad. vanced flying instruction. Tony schwamm. widely known Alaskan pilot and operator of the Wrangell- Petersburg Air Service, returned Wednesday, with Mrs. Schwamm. from a six weeks trip Outside.
 While Mrs. schwamm visited with relatives and friends in Chi eago. Tony spent the time in eCal- ifornia and Seattle taking advanced flying instrcion and logged 53 flying hours in the advanced cours- es, including blind flying.
 While the little pilot was gath ering the latest knowledge in ayi- ation and getting his Waco over hauled, treasure of the Schwamm heart attained on the six week s trip was that new Tayloreraft two place plane Wrangell and Peters burg folk now have opportunity to The last word in small air craft, the Tayloreraft is a sweet" job, one Of a class of small planes which are becoming especially pop ular in the States now with pri- Yate fliers and in giving instruc- ton.

 J. J. Hillard, one of Alaska s pioneer residents and now in Wran- gell as Deputy Collector of Customs during leave of Leo 0sterman, Knew Robertson for many years in the north, and describes him as a man who "could fix anything large or small from a 40-ton tractor to a loose tooth. He had tempered steel down to such an art that he made hunting knives that one could shave with"
 Coming from the Maine woods where he had been trapper and guide, Robertson learned the trade of jeweler and watchmaker. The bench couldn't hold him though and he wanted the outdoors. Alaska won him and for years he roamed its peaks and tundras. i Commenting on his death, MT. HiAard said: And so passed like able, courteous, soft-spoken, who'll ly impractical genius who in the 37 years I knew him intimately never said an i'll word about a soul and had the affection of every one he ever met"
 Fittingly the words of Omar came to MT. Hillard:
 For some we loved, the loveliest and the best
