SHISHMAREF NATIVES GETTING POLAR BEAR

Frank Whaley, pilot for Wien Airlines, who has been storm bound At Shishmaref for the past week, reports that due to strong north winds in that district heavy old Arctic ice has drifted in bring ing many polar bear and lots of seal. Up to the time he left the na- lives had caught ten large polar bear. Among the lucky hunters were Alex Wigiouna, Floyd Wal lok, Teddy Ickeick, Alfred, Arnold and Elliot Olana.
 Elliot Olana, he states, really had a big day when he not only got himself polar bear but shot a large black wolf as we'll.
 George Aghupuk, the well known artist, was among the hunters and while on the ice when it was stormy and showing was having considerable trouble with his dogs. Before he realized it he was within l5 feet of a large polar bear, but due to the confusion and excitement in his team as well as the rough ice underfoot he was un- able to get out his gun before the bear disappeared into the open

.mnittee learned this week.

Committee learned this week.
Referred to the Committee ON
the Judiciary, the bill has been
designated HR. 1905.
Congressman Gossett, a member
of the Standing Subcommittee on
Immigration and Naturalization of
the House Judiciary Committee,
explained that he introduced the
bill because he felt that the par
ents at least of japanese Ameri-
can servicemen who died in the
service of our country should be
granted the privilege of becoming
naturalized citizens of the country
for which their sons died.
The Congressman recalled that
rlany members of the 442nd ia
panese American Regimental Com
bat Team died during the rescue
of the Lost Battalion of the 141st
Infantry of the Seth Texas Divi-
sion. His bill would in a measure
serve as a tribute to the Nisei
