FIRST FIRE THIS MONTH
CAUSES NO DAMAGE
The Fire Department was called
to the home of Jimmie Henry, at
Third and “B” streets, across
from the Nome High School.
Smoke was pouring out of the
back shed of the small cabin, and
when the door was opened it was
found that Henry had dumped hot
ashes into a wooden box. The side
i of the box had burned out and the
| ashes were beginning to burn the
! floor. No other damage was done.
Research workers at the Mayo
i clinic have found that smoking
I ordinary cigarettes containing nic
otine slows the circulation of the
blood in the arms and legs so that
they become colder, according to
the 1945 Encyclopaedia Britan
nica Book of the Year.

CORRECTION
In the last issue The Nome
Nugget told of the rescue of an
injured man, Russell Blake from
the M. S. Meteor, and gave credit
of the rescue to the U. S. Coast
Guard. Credit should have been
given to personnel of the Lomen
Commercial Co., and the tug
“Margo”, captained by Teddy
Reed and engineer Nels Swan
berg, Jr. The tug answered the
distress signal and brought the
injured man into harbor through
the heavy surf.
The distress call was picked up
at Pt. Spencer and relayed by the
ACS to the Lomen Commercial
Co., who not only sent out the
Margo but sent three men to help
the Meteor, as it was short-hand
ed. The men who went were Paul
Ivanoff, Paul Sarv and Tommy
Ulegak.
