A National Guard helicopter ham
mered at the ice with a five-ton chunk of
concrete, but the whales were more than
three miles from open water, with a mas
sive ice ridge in between and a wind shift
threatening to push ice around them and
trap them further.
Rescuers said that even if everything
went as planned, it would be at least
Wednesday night before they could get
the whales as far as the ridge.
While high-technology equipment
poured into Barrow during the weekend,
Eskimos using chain saws and strong
backs made the most progress at freeing
the California gray whales from a tiny
breathing hole.

About two dozen natives hacked 34
breathing holes Saturday, for a total of
about 60 holes extending more than 1 ‘/a
miles from where three whales were
stranded by moving ice about two weeks
ago before they could migrate south.
The smallest and youngest of the
whales, named Bone, disappeared Fri
day night and is presumed dead.
Just as the tedious hole-cutting hit its
stride, the whales balked, advancing
only a few hundred feet past a large
opening where they spent Friday night
and most of Saturday.
Rescuers said they feared the whales
were spooked by an underwater shoal.
North Slope Borough biologist Geoff
Carroll said most of the water in the area
is about 20 feet deep, compared to only
12 or 13 feet of water in the shoal.
“You figure two feet of ice and five
feet of whale, and that doesn’t leave
them too much room to swim,” Carroll
said. “I don’t blame them for not want
ing to go through there. ’ ’
Whaling captain Arnold Brower,
whose crew used donated chain saws to
help free the animals, was frustrated by
the whales’ reluctance.
“If we move them, then I’ll call it pro
gress,” Brower said, leaning down to
push the snout of a surfacing whale in the
direction he wanted it to go.

Survey asks welfare mother
‘offensive’ intimate question]
I’s K<
me of th
CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — A state paternity survey
that asks for intimate details of a welfare mother’s sex life is
so intrusive it’s offensive, a legal aid lawyer says.
One federal official said such surveys arc discouraged.
Human Services Department officials confirm that the sur
vey asks women for the exact dates when sexual relations be
tween them and the childrens’ alleged fathers began and
ended, according to the Charleston Sunday Gazette-Mail.
Other questions include: “Is there anyone else who could
possibly be the father of the child? Did the child’s father ever
suggest an abortion? How often did you have sexual relations
with him?”
“Why don’t 1 just put a video camera in my bedroom.” one
unidentified woman complained to the newspaper
Human Services Commissioner Reginia Lipscom:
survey is used to identify the child’s father and isfeifa
proved.
Lipscomb said the form was mailed to women inij
County, which includes Charleston, who collect or In
lected Aid to Families with Dependent Childrenasi

Advertising campaign

Lost by Systems Building. Little Martin’s red airplane.
Call 846-5610. 41110/24
WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican
George Bush is running an advertising
campaign so successful that it has over
shadowed news events and swayed vot
ers in a near-vacuum that Democrat Mi
chael Dukakis only now is moving to fill.
With the Nov. 8 election little more
than two weeks away, Dukakis went on
the air during the weekend with strong
counterpunches to a months-old Bush of
fensive that raked him over the coals and
obliterated any momentum the Massa
chusetts governor had leaving the Demo
cratic convention in July.
From the first commercials filled with
children and warmth, balloons and adu
lation, to stinging ads attacking Dukakis
to a series of foreign affairs spots stres
sing the vice president’s experience.
Bush’s ad people sought to transform his
image from wimp to strong yet sensitive
leader.
At the same time. Bush's ads have
battered Dukakis to the point that voters
who once viewed him as a competent,
innovative governor or — at worst — an
unknown, tend to see the Democratic
nominee as soft on crime, weak on de
fense and questionable on the environ
ment.
Dukakis’ own advertising got off to a
late and shaky start, which was an unex
pected bonus for Bush and his highly ex
perienced media team.
