The arrival of the Nippon Yusen
Kaisha vessel Heiyo Maru in Seat
tie on Nov. % was auspicious, for
1t was not Just the arrival Of ano-
Their Japanese ship.
Japanese ships have been coming
to Seattle since the end of last sum-
mer, but none on regular schedule.
The Heiyo Maru was the first to
inaugurate regular service between
Japan and the Pacific Northwest.
and therefore its docking at Pier
81 marked q new era in trans-Pa-
cific trade.
The arrival was such q significant
event in maritime and commercial
circles of this city that Mayor will
liam Devin and other high civic and
business officials went out In tug
to greet the Heiyo Maru as 1t steam
ed into Elliott Bay.
And Mayor Devin presented in be-
half of the city, Port Of Seattle. and
the Chamber of Commerce plaque
concentrating the occasion to the
captain of the vessel.
In some ways. the ceremonies
were reminiscent of the arrival some
so years ago of the Mike Maru. an
NYK liner which was the first of q
long line of Japanese ships to call
at this port.
At that time, the whole city Of
Seattle joined in on the welcome,
with an estimated $4,000 persons
lining the shores of Elliott Bay to
welcome the Mike Maru.
The Heiyo Maru Is not big ship,
but it is a clean, well-built vessel

THREE FRIENDS SAVE 5KISMAREF po5TMAN ON SEWARD ICEpACk

While using a piece of ice as 8 kyak to retrieve some seals he had shot, Verne Eutuk, postmaster at Shishmaref on the northern shore of Seward Peninsula, would have lost his life if it had not been for his three companions, according to a letter recently received by Col Joseph Alexander, from George R Goshaw at Shishmaref.
 Eutuk and Vincent J. Tocktoo, Arthur T. Tocktoo and Jakie Min goona had gone out on the ice pack by dog sleds to get hair seal to be used for meat and oil for their families and dogs. The hunt was staged on Lincoln's Birthday, February 12, as Eutuk can only go hunting on those days when the
The Daily Alaska empire., 1951-03-24

postoffice is officially closed.
 Several seal were located swim fling in open water about six miles offShore and the hunt was on Nine seals were killed but the car casses were too far out from the rim of solid ice to be reached with hooks used by the Eskimoes.
 The hook used in this process is a round piece of wood about four inches thick, 10 inches long and haped like a potato masher with hree or four steel hooks put into he thick end. Attached to the end If the wood opposite to the end with the hooks is length of rope The rope is coiled and the gear lsed much like a cowboys larlat n hooking the seal carcasses.
 With the seal beyond even the reach of the hooks carried by the hunters, small piece of floating ice was used by Vincent Tocktoo IS kyak to bring in his four seals Eutuk was not so lucky with the paddle and piece of ice.
 The ocean current was setting offshore and the seal were drifting further away making Eutuk paddle a greater distance for his five seal Evidently his efforts were too stren- uous causing him to slip from his ice boat into the cold water.
 Eutuk grabbed his floating hook and wrapped the rope around his left arm The end of the 100 rope on his hook was grabbed by Eutuk' S friends. But they were unable to pull him along the surface of the ice because his clothing froze to the ice.
 The young" ice broke and Eutuk came up under it. Three times this was repeated with him using his elbow to break the ice before he could be dragged the 50 feet by the three men.
 He was given hot coffee from a thermos bottle and his friends gave him part of the clothing they were wearing. To restore circula- tion and to keep himself warm, Eutuk ran alongside of his sled on the 45 minute trip back to Shismar- eff.
 Mingoona went. back to the scene of the accident the next morning to get the five seals he and Eutuk had killed only to find they had floated away.
 All members of the seal hunting party are members of the First Scout Battalion, Alaska National Guard. Eutuk, Vincent Tocktoo and Mingoona were in the army during the last war.
