Gambell. Fall. 1883 By CLARENCE IRRIGOO

Summer construction season IS jus. over, in fact, t is all over here in Gambell. The work on the air field is closed until next spring or summer. If the MIX men had not left too early in September, much more work would have been done. What happened was that they all went home thinking the winter is coming. Some 3 weeks of dry and sunny weather pre- vailed after everyone had left. Sev- eral men returned to level off some portion of the runway and kept busy until the recent storm hampered all types of work every

of the village on the 24th may be considered if there is enough inter est for incorporation as fourth class city. Cr. Nagozruk's father was the school teacher at Point Hope about 10 years ago.
 Mrs. Andrew Tooyak left Point Hope on Oct. g enroute to Mexico City where she will attend a travel agents convention. She goes under the sponsorship of Wien Airlines at Kotzebue In Point Hope the temperature is in the tWenties and the ground is covered with it's winter coat of snow. Mexico City has summer-type temperatures.
 The Point Hope Native Store has ordered 300 pounds of frozen trout from Kivalina by air freight. There is a shortage of fresh meat in Pt. Hope. Those at fishing camp on the Kukpuk River have not returned. MT. Mckenzie flew over their camps on Oct. l2 and dropped some things.
 Point Hope had it's first snow storm of the season on Oct. ), 6 and '. There was no mail plane from Oct. 2 to Oct. 8. It contln- ued to snow each day through Oc- tober 12 Men working on the sea wall continued their work even during the blizzard except on Sun day, Oct. 6. which was the worst day of the storm.

where.

Some better than 20O0 feet is completed so far, paved and black topped, with other half leveled and smoothed to the surface of the al ready completed runway, making 2 total of 4 to thousand feet of landing field. This is exactly what Wien Airlines had been waiting for ever since they took over the mail contract between Nome and Gambell, so they would do busi- ness - freight, passenger and mail - without interruption. The land ing field is good now.
 Savoonga landing strip, said to be built by Wien personnel, served better than nothing. According to the pilot of Cessna 180 stationed here, the strip is very rough in landing and taking off. When the winds are blowing from north, one can meet the little plane by walking over tundra and rocks for two hours. Without any means of overland conveyance other than dog-teams, it is far from being called convenient" t."
 Miscellaneous "Shorts":
 Many years ago old people used to say that dead sharks are found washed on only occasionally the beaches of St. Lawrence Island, and no live ones seen. This sum- mer, several are killed by hunt CTS, and schools are seen attack ing whales.
 Summer campers for fish and seal are coming home, except for Solomon BooShu and his family who is going to remain at Camp Collier for fox trapping. Word is received that they had found a dead whale right in front of their camp.
 A Baptist minister and his fam fly who came to stay and is hold ing Sunday Services in the home of one resident, inviting men, women and children to attend their meetings. It was revealed that the purpose of their coming to Gam bell is because the Gospel is not being preached to our people. This surprises the local Presbyterian Minister and those who carry on the ministry, because for more than 70 years of our church's his tory, the Gospel is being preached every Sunday, and the church is strong and carrying on as far as it's commission is concerned, and it is not dying church as these Baptists believe.
 A recent storm which did dam aged to Barrow was not bad in our area. There were few upturned oomiaks and a National Guard en- zine room built in September this summer landed in pieces miles off Gambell. These are the only cas- ualties. Some good resulted from this storm, dead whale and other smaller dead animal drifted ashore. as well as all kinds of sea weed like (oopa, etc. Men, women and children are hauling these by buckets and gunny sacks.
