CAMPBELL NEWS

Spring hunting for both villag- es of Gambell and Savoonga was very good. Savoonga hunters took the lead in securing meat from bull walrus. It is reported that walrus meat was so plentiful that somebody's meat cache made of driftwood broke open. Others re- ported filling their caches up to the ceiling
 Once in a Blue Moon
 Never before had Savoonga hunters been lucky enough to kill many female walrus with babies. Reports said all the boats killed several of these female walrus with babies, and saved it's skins for omiaks Skin boats). Years be- fore, boat captains from there would save enough cash to buy two walrps hides from Gambell natives. This spring few will want to buy hides because they have their own.
 One boat killed one walrus with largest tusks they have seen, they reported The tusks are in the skull, and when put side by side with an oil drum, the tusks extend six inches above the height of the oil drum standing on it's end.
 Russian Radar Domes
 Hunters of Gambell Likewise had their share of annual catch of walrus and muktuk. In the iceless Boring Sea, skin boats would go . toward Russian territory as far as going is permitted by themselves, possibly to the International Date Line. Several boats reported sec ing two radar domes on one of the mountains Others heard continu- ous hum from the direction where the radar domes were seen. All the hunters said they did not en- counter any Soviet aircraft.

Most of the success of the local

County Treasurer
Offers Tips on
ST License Plates

The new license plates will go
on sale January q, 1857 and the
Treasurer comments that now is
the time for people to start get
ting ready
Out of state drivers planning
to buy Montana titles and title
transfers can secure the neces-
sary forms and information from
the Treasurer's office at the
court house.
We also suggest drivers start
looking for registration slips they
yer issued when they received
license tabs last year.
The registration slips must be
presented when application IS
made for new plates.
Purchasers were given two slips
one for his own files and the
other n must be presented for
re-registration carrying the words
valid for re-registration."
Having these re-registration
slips and forms for title transfers
ready will assist in the speed Of
handling the 1857 license plates.

Against today's slam contract
Mr.. Abel led the king of clubs.
When his partner played the dis
couraging deuce. he shifted to a
trump and Mr.. Dale won on the
board with the ace.
Taking stock, Mr.. Dale saw
that he had exactly II winners,
one short of his bid. Clearly.
Mr.. Abel had the ace of clubs.
If he also held queen-jack in
diamonds and queen-jack in
spades he would be squeezed at
an early stage.
But that was asking too much.
AS you see. the protection in both
the diamond and spade suits was
divided between the defenders.
Mr.. Dale took that possibility
into consideration and still made
his contract in the following
manner:
At trick three he led another
heart. picking up the last of the
outstanding trumps. Next he
cashed the king and ace of
spades and ruffed a third lead
OF the suit in his hand. He was
pleased to see Mr.. Abel drop the
queen.
Now he led out the remainder
of his trump suit. On the last
trump lead Mr.. Abel had left the
ace of clubs and three diamonds
to the queen. Dummy had the
king and one diamond, the 10 of
