LEASING OF SHORE SPACE
IN ALASKA
Senator Hatch, Chairman of the
Senate Committee on Public
Lands and Surveys, has introduc
ed a bill permitting the Secretary
of the Interior to lease land in
cluded in shore space reservations
in Alaska for agricultural, indus
trial and commercial purposes.
Under existing law at least 80
rods of shore space between each
claim, location or entry along the
shore of any navigable waters in
Alaska must be reserved from en-,
try. The law further provides
that the Secretary, in his discre
tion, may restore some of the land
included in the 80-rod reservation
to entry which he believes are not
necessary for harborage or other
purposes.
Under Senator Hatch’s measure,
the Secretary may lease or grant
permits for the land within the
80-rod reservation in tracts not
to exceed 160 acres and for a pe
riod of not more than twenty
years.

School News
In Nome Hi, as in other schools
all over the country, every six
weeks the students suddenly be
come quiet and exceedingly schol
arly. This is due, to a great extent
to the rapid succession of one test |
after another during this week.1
“Cramming” is a common prac
tice, but is not always successful. |
Whether one’s test grades come'
out as A’s or as F’s, everyone is
glad when Friday of test week
rolls around and we can breathe
freely again.
Two years ago the Biology Class |
of the High School gave a dance
to raise funds for a public drink- j
ing fountain. The money was j
raised and a fountain ordered.
During the past two years, the
ships have come and the ships
have gone, but still no one knew
what had become of the drinking
fountain. Committees were ap
pointed to investigate this mys
terious occurence but no further
information was discovered. Fi
nally, while discussing the mat
ter at one of our student body
meetings, Mr. Thompson said he
had noticed a large crate down
stairs. Upon investigation it was
lound to be our much searched
for drinking fountain, unearthed
at last.
There is a shortage of text
books in school this year and
many of the students must share
their books. A shipment was ex
pected on the “Baranof”, and we
were very much disappointed
when we found it had not arrived.
So we have become resigned to
our fate—no text books.
1st and 2nd Grades
Chuckie Snyder and Tommie
Fults are out with chicken pox.
We are sorry to lose Kenneth
Bahr, who has moved to Anchor
age. We’re having fun making
jack-o-lanterns for Hallowe’en
3rd and 4th Grades
The third and fourth grades are
planning for a Hallowe’en party.
Witches, black cats and jack-o
lanterns are in evidence in the
room decorations. The third grade
has been divided into two divi
sions, the Redbirds and the Blue-1
jays. The Bluejays received a new
book this week. Many children
bring story books for the reading
table. Everyone enjoys them.
5th Grade
Our room had an Alaska Day
Program today, Oct. 18. The third
and fourth grades came in to visit
us and we all enjoyed listening to
Mrs. Carrie McLain, who told us
about the early days in Nome, and
of famous people who had once
gone to school in Nome. We sang,
“America, the Beautiful,” and
‘‘Alaska, My Alaska.” Mrs. Dun
bar told us something about Alas
kan history. Mrs. Wassmann told
us about some of the funny things
the people in the States think
about Alaska. Mrs. Dunbar sang
a song “Dear Alaska” to us. We
all enjoyed our program immense
