Wildlike Officials Visit In Nome

Arriving at the Nome Air Base yesterday aboard an army trans port were three officials of the Fish and Wildlife Service. Robert F. Scott, predator control agent of Anchorage; w. A. Elton, regional Wildlife supervisor, Juneau; and Burton Atwood, member of the national board of directors of the Isaak Walton League, Chicago.
 The three men are checking on reports and stories of Alaska game and studying the conservation and proper use of wildlife resources of Alaska.
 Scott has been working in the Unalakleet area, has controlled the wolf situation until there are no further reports of damage done by predators in that district. He states that he will be working out of Kotzebue in an effort to control the predators in the area from St. Michael to Point Lay.
 Scott stated that the service is using every method known in an effort to control, rather than ex- terminate the wolves. The meth ods include hunting, trapping and lethal bait The latter has been most effective.
 Atwood, who said he has been in Alaska the past four weeks, is gathering information on game relative to stories and reports heard by his group in the States as to the Wanton killing of game in Alaska. He reports that to g great extent the stories have been overdone. After going to Kotzebue with the Wildlife men he will re- turn home in Winnetka, H., near Chicago.
 Bud Elton, as regional super visor. is assisting both Scott and Atwood in their gathering the proper information on predator control and conservation and proper use of Alaskas natural re- sources.
 The trio will remain in Nome for a few days before proceeding to Kotzebue, where Scott will make his headquarters.
