The way you guys were selling that muktuk, you should take some of that stuff to the Worlds Fair back in New York. You'd make a fortune" said a man who had tasted muktuk at our booth at the recent Tanana Valley Fair.
 The Tundra Times staff and it's helpers had the time of their lives , selling tidbits of muktuk to the public. The public's reaction. to it. was hilarious.
 Besides being hilarious, the muk- tux booth of the Tundra Times at the Panama Valley Fair was highly successful. Its success was due to several unselfish people who worked hard. Vivian Spurgin of Cantwell put in countless hours buying supplies and making ar rangements. Those who handled the booth were: Poldine Carlo, Molly Galbreath, Martha Teeluk, Ursula Teeluk. Isabel Sobodo. Sheryl Mayo, Betty Engles, Linda Badten, all of Fairbanks; Helga Tansy, Cantwell; and Clarabell Charlie, Nenana. Misses Charlie and Tansy are on the office staff of the Tundra Times. The girls decorated the booth with mukluks and pictures of Alaska Heinz Niemeyer made the excellent signs. Laura Wright, the famous parka designer, hung her beautiful parkas in our booth Dorothy Mazola, Fairbanks, cubed the muktuk for sale.
 The man who was vitally re- sponsible for the success of the af- fair was Ernie Hanauer, Fairbanks upholsterer, who furnished the furniture. even to the wall to wall carpet and refrigerator. Aside of all this, Ernie Hanauer became the ace muktuk salesman of the booth. Before the affair was over, he was known as the only muktuk sales man in the world. Someone pro- posed that We should send him to the TV program, What's My Liner" They'd never guess his profession" someone said.
 And so to the people mentioned above, whose willingness to help, made the Tundra Times muktuk sale success and helped give pleas ure to the public, goes the Tundra Times twenty-third North Star Award along with our thanks and congratulations.

Poem
 THE WILD DUCKS {
 ARE FLYING
By Robert Zimmerman

By Robert Zimmerman Over the blue, northern sky, You can see by the suns fading
 light, Like moving, black shadows on The wild ducks are flying tonight. North of the tundra they're found, Close by the bright arctic sea. Tonight they are all sduthward
 bound, For the wild ones are homeless and
 free. There's whisper of snowfall today, For the long summer days are soon
 done. And the wild bloom will all fade
 away, Like the leaves in the red, dying
 sun. Over the waving spruce trees, In the dusk you can hear their
 wild cry. It rings through the cool, evening
 breeze, To the valley, then echoes and dies Over the blue, northern sky, You can see by the suns fading
 light, Like moving, black shadows on
 high =. The wild ducks are flying tonight.

NASA Press Survey

awarenesS Of the space effort
NASA'S effectiveness as a dis

NASA paid the journalism
school sos, $40 about two weeks

money will be returned. Two
such payments totaling slightly
more than $131 900 and cover

In New York, Dean Barrett
refused to comment on the re-

agency spokesman said a letter
from Dean Barrett would be
made public shortly.
The reported termination of
the study conceded with NASA

executive session to mark up
NASA's $5.7 billion budget for

Under the bill a Federal
district judge could draw up a
panel of public defenders from

He also could assign other
counsel If he saw fit.

/, $751; 900 to treat David If he had
not had insurance and the help
of the Crippled Children Pro-
gram. Bergen estimated that
prescriptions during the first
year of David's treatment came
to nearly $500. Surgery bills
sky-rocketed to $4,000 in spite of
the fact that many of David's
doctors have operated without
charge, Bergen added.
There are $4,000 children in
Montgomery County who are
physically disabled" Bergen
said. Few people can afford
the high cost of plastic surgery,
psychiatry and the expensive
prescriptions needed to keep
these children alive"
Many of these children get
help from state welfare agen-
cies, the Crippled Children
Foundation and other groups, he
explained. But many middle
income people like us are not
financially capable of meeting
all of the the tremendous costs,
even with such aid"
With the help of friends, doc.
tors and attorneys, Bergen has
undertaken formation of his
own foundation to assist parents
of physically disabled children.
Called Child Faith, Inc, the
groups advisers include a
dozen medical experts. The
Prince Georges Plaza Lions
Club, Post % American Legion
and the Lincoln Valley Citizens
Association are supporting or

I'VE want parents of physical
ly defective children to know
that they can get expert medical
advice and treatment" Bergen
continued, land not go bankrupt
doing it. Our medical advisory
board will examine the child,
and give medical treatment at
clinic cost. Or, If the child is
severely handicapped, they can
recommend hospitals and spe-
cialists to the parents" Bergen
explained.
I'VE will have to depend on
voluntary contributions" he
said, until we are able to get
Federal tax exemption. We al
ready have Maryland tax exemp-
ton for charitable organiza-
TONS" he added. Ultimately
Bergen hopes to get funds from

Foundations.
