Georgetown Group Turns
Deaf Ears on Developer

A prospective real estate de-
veloper ran into bitter words
and stiff opposition last night
from his would-be neighbors in
Georgetown.
The controversy centerS
around a proposal by A. l..
Wheeler, attorney, to build II
row houses in the block bounded
by Thirtieth, P. Thirty-first and
% streets NV. Strong OPPOSE
ton has been registered by area
residents. led by Mrs. Harold B.
Hinton, president of the Pro-
gressive Citizens Association of
Georgetown.
The new houses, which Mr..
Wheeler says will be valued at
from $4,000 to $50, 900 each, will
front on a new 40-foot, T.
shaped street cut in from P
street. which Mr.. Wheeler has
conditional District permission
to have dedicated.
The proposed new street will
join orchard alley, a project
also bitterly opposed by nearby
residents.

Mr.. Wheeler said the develop
ment would be one you'd be
proud to know.

provement," Mrs. Hinton said.
To questions from the floor,
Mr.. Wheeler said his plans are
still tentative. He has no firm
view" on sidewalks, but emissions
a country atmosphere"
Mr.. Wheeler assured the citi-
zens none of the new houses have
a backyard less than 20 feet
deep.
Later, an association member
said plans Mr.. Wheeler has sub
mitted to District officials call
for some rear yards only IS feet

Undecided on Houses
Asked his plans for two exist
ing houses on P street, which
association members said are of
the Federal period, Mr.. Wheeler
replied he had not decided
whether to tear them down or
remodel them.
How can we count on you for
any of these things?" Mrs. Hin
ton asked. 1--WE don't have much
confidence that you've made up
your mind about a lot of things"

plans are tentative.

she set another American record In

Seattle Speaks Up for Air Service to Europe Over Polar Route

SEATTLE, R-The state Pub lie Service Commission, Seattle Chamber of Commerce and the Seattle Traffic Assn, mailed a brief Friday to the Civil Aero nautics Board in support of direct air service from Seattle Tacoma to Europe over the polar route.
 The brief urged the CAB to certify both Pan American World Airways and Trans World Air lines for polar service, with the Seattle-Tacoma International Air port as the northernmost U. S.. terminus.
 The brief said PAA estimated 6,848 passengers from the Pacific Northwest would fly to Europe over the polar route in 1857 if Seattle-Tacoma is a waystop.
 The rapid population growth and economic expansion of the region, as well as Seattle's heavy Scandinavian population, were also cited.

OLD WEST FLAVOR IN
 REINDEER ROUNDUP

charge. Then he quickly twists the antlers, forcing the head back toward him, at an angle to one side. At the same time he springs down with all his weight upon the trump, trying to knock the deer over and trip his hind leg with his right hand. Sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't.
 Once the deer is down, he is held by the bulldogger while an- other man marks his ears. And if it is bull, chances are it is castrated. It all takes a matter of seconds. Sometimes, however, the Eskimo's weight is not sufficient to throw a grown bull, and the battle is on until one or the other tires, or help arrives.
 In the middle of the afternoon and at night, everyone takes time out for feed of reindeer stew and homemade bread. Both are delicious.
 After the roundup is over, the families are paid by the owner, Johnny Kakaruk, in meat and in cash.
 The herd is now nearly 1900 strong. The original number, 5G0, was leased to Kakaruk five years ago with the stipulation that at the end of the fifth year that amount would be returned.
 During the warm summer months the deer feed about the lakes in the Grantly Harbor re- zion. They are often herded 35 miles a day in order to escape hordes of flies and so as not to ruin any pasture areas.
 Most of the deer are butchered in the fall. This includes males, and females that have been "dry" for two years. This year 85 head will be sold to the local merchant. The hide is also of value in mak- ing coats, sleeping bags, and mukluks twinter boots).
 Never more than 20 percent of the herd is butchered. The lawn crops for the coming year, under favorable conditions, have been estimated at TO percent.
 The biggest hazard to the deer is the Alaskan brown bear.
 In winter, the deer travel as far west as Wales and average about 20 miles a day. Johnny Kakaruk and his sons herd the deer on foot. It is hard life, as anyone knows who has ever tramped over and camped on tundra with it's thousands of matted tufts of grass that are as hard to walk on as a ball and socket.
The Nome nugget., 1956-07-23
By BOB ROGERS

Reindeer roundup time at Tel Ter, Alaska, is an event that would compare favorably with those of the old West. Every year the people of the village cross Grantley Harbor to group of red buildings and corrals to handle" the reindeer. All of the deer that have not been through the proc ess before get their ears cut and marked with an aluminium tag. Some of the bulls are castrated, and all broken horns are ampu- tated with a jackknife.
 The festivities last for one day and the better part of the night. It always occurs in the middle of July when the horns are in velvet. Everyone arrives early in the morning. No time is wasted, as the women start the coffee pots to boiling and the men busy themselves in preparation for the coming days work.
 Then the fun begins. The deer mill around in a huge corral in the morning, knowing that some thing is up by the excitement in the air. Suddenly everyone in camp runs toward them, shouting and raising a great cloud of dust. The herd breaks as the frightened deer unlease energy and remark able speed in an attempt to get as far away from their intruders as possible.
 A fraction of the herd is then trapped in a smaller corral by women and children carrying a wire fence supported by burlap. From this bunch, the deer are run into three pens, each one smaller than the one before, so the deer may be more easily han dled.
 Several deer at a time are re- leased down a chute. They walk slowly and cautiously until they see an opening, and then they break. But they never make it, because 20 men and boys eagerly await them as they come out of the chute.
 There is a trick to bulldogging a reindeer. The man stands with his right side toward the deer. He grabs the antlers with his left hand and bucks with the initial
