Couple Complete
 Rubber Boat Trip Down Yukon R.

FAIRBANKS R,-Erhard Wink Ter, professor of Geology at Notre Dame University, and his wife Isolde are heading home to Indi- ana after 20-day voyage down the Yukon River in rubber fold boat.
 The Winklers equipped their boat with a rudder and set out three weeks ago from Whitehorse, where they had left their car af- ter driving up the Alaska High way
 It rained for two days. Then the mosquitoes were so thick the couple did not dare open their mouths. The water was extremely rough and there were many bends. This continued for 40 miles, with the Winklers progressing just a few miles an hour.
 Not much guiding was required for the craft. Most of the time they watched the slowly passing scenery. They carried concentrat- ed food, few items of clothing and no sleeping bags.
 The couple averaged 50 miles day after the first bad streak was over. They had IS days of sun and little trouble with snags. They carried no life preservers, be- cause, said Winkler, "the fold boat does not tip over"
 Their voyage ended at Circle, Alaska, at the north end of the Steese Highway. Aside from the communities of Whitehorse, Car macks and Dawson, in the Yukon Territory, they saw few people
 ''The traces are there. There are cabins and even little settle ments, but no people," said Wink Ter. ''We walked through Eagle at 11:30 in the morning and we saw no one" Eagle, former Alaskan port of entry on the Yukon River, downstream from Dawson, has an estimated population of 18>.
 The couple hitched a ride from Circle to Fairbanks and will see other parts of Alaska before re- turning to Whitehorse to pick up their car.
