DR. BRAAFLADT HAS STORY
IN THE ALASKA SPORTSMAN
KETCHIKAN — “The world’*
greatest dog race was the third All
Alaska Sweepstakes,’’ says Dr. O. A.
Braafladt, formerly of Anchorage, in
“Men of Iron, Dogs of Speed” which
is featured in the December number
of the Alaska Sportsman, recently.
In that race, he says, “John John
son, nicknamed ’Don Man.'ja Fin
lander, drove 12 Siberian dogs the
. 408 miles in 74 hours, 14 minutes
and 22 seconds. This record may
, never be broken in a non-stop rare
by an Alaskan or any other dog driv
er the world over, wheSacr. they
speed over tho glistening--whke
I; trails in matters of lifs.and death,
or merely for the love of-the sport,
or for the testing of fir.e -Alaskan
men and dogs.”
Dr. Braafladt also described this
-ace and te.ls how “Fox” Ramsey
l -ot-p in second, and “Soot .y” Allan,
third.
In the issue, John Hirbo-n, a
Chigmik trapper, tells hw - he sub
dued a wolverine and'killed it almost
empty-handed. He'also tells how a
> bear committed sbicide.
In “The Spy in the Igloo," Otto
William Geist of the .University of
Alaska describes an:incident in the
lifS of the Eskimos at St. Lawrer.c
Island ■and how the oldest womaK.on
the :island attempted to bring- brd
luck to the household of a Christian
| benefactor by murmuring “charms’’
i in behalf of the “worshippers.” *
Other features in the December is
stae are: “They always Take a
Look,” a deer hunting story by John
Peters; “A Dream- Cofees True,”
the third and fourth letters in a ser- ■
ies written by a Cheechako, '“Ketf
chikari t» Barrow,” and “The Sluice
Box” department.
