Fire Destroys Home of Guardsman in Kwiguk

Fire raced through the KWiguk village home of Alaska Army N a ona Guardsman Aloysius Hootch last week, leaving his family of five with only the clothes on their backs.
 The fire destroyed Hootch's home while he was at Fort Rich ardson with other Army guards men for their annual two weeks of active duty training. He re- turned to his family immediately after guard officials at the Army opst received word of the disaster.
 Kwiguk is remote Eskimo village located at the delta of the Yukon River, on the rivers middle mouth.
 Donations are being sought by the Army National Guard to help the now near-destitute family. They need clothing, dishes, pots, pans, bedding, guns and all other essentials for starting another home in rugged Northern Alaska.
 Perhaps it will sound odd to some that the family needs guns and ammunition almost as much as clothing, bedding and cooking utensils the AVG spokesman said, "but where they are from, the only food they have at times is what the hunter shoots"
 Donations are being accepted at the Alaska Army National Guards U. S. Property and Fiscal Office in Mountain View.
