Father Tom
For Science Info

ANCHORAGE-The Alaskan Air
Command recently asked help
from Father Thomas P. Cunning
ham, Jesuit priest. The Air
Force needed information about
setting up scientific station in
the Arctic Ocean.
The priest received the needed
information through % years of
ministering to Eskimos north OF
the Arctic Circle. For 10 of these
years ne served on Little Diomede
Island in the Boring Sea, only
three miles from Siberia.
He is known to those he serves
as Father Tom"
Father Cunningham's headquar-
tiers have been at Point Barrow,
since 1854. More than half of the
time, however, he is driving his
dog team to native villages or fly
ing longer hops in bush planes.
Father Cunningham was born
and raised in New Zealand, at
tended school in Belgium, was or
dained in Montreal and first came
to Alaska in 1929.
His travels have taken him to
every corner of the territory, and
he is one of the few white men
who can talk to the Eskimos in
their own dialect.
He has also written books on

5-Foot Pet Boa Hides
For Week to Shed Skin

ORANGE, NJ, K--Conrad, a
boa constructor, is back with the
Ernest Hofmanns after a weeks
disappearance.
When five-footer Conrad disap-
peared the Holman family was
plunged in gloom. But Ernest Hof-
mann, a student of reptilian hab-
its, took thought and decided that
Conrad must have sneaked away
to shed its skin.
A likely place for the under
taking, Holman considered, was
the deeper recesses of the flooring
where Conrad normally lay near
an opening.
So Holman tore up sections oi
the floor and there was the snake
only half shed and sorry sight.
The Hofmanns were SO happy
to see Conrad all they could think
of was a good meal for their pc
and no scolding.
