Lucky Thirteen for Two Nomeites
Last Friday was Friday the
thirteenth, lucky for some people
according to superstition and un
lucky for most.
Alex Maclnnes, who celebrated
his 50th birthday last Friday, was
born on Friday the 13th, came to
Nome 13 years ago, and was
honored at a birthday party given
by Harry Gabrielson with 13
guests.
Another Friday the 13th birth
day was that of George Madson,
of the Polar Bar, who arrived tn
Nome for the first time on June
13, *935.
At anchor in the roadstead to
day are the MS Valentine MSTS,
two Navy tugs, the MS Finch, and
a Navy FS boat.

Catholic Ladies Annual
Food Sale On July 3
Despite the adverse weather
we are now experiencing and the
longshoremen’s strike which
%
threatens us to a hungry sum
mer there will be a Catholic
Ladie’s food sale on July 3. The
project is again being supported
by the Holy Name Society of St.
Joseph’s Catholic Church.
On this same date in the past
two years, similar sales have been
sponsored by this same group.
The purpose is as before—to raise
funds to bring two teacher-nuns
to Nome to conduct a summer
catechism course for the children.
Such a project is a most worthy
one for it will provide many a
child with a few weeks of very
valuable training which he might
never otherwise be able to secure.
We like to think of the nuns as
the world’s finest teachers and
many of us who were not able
to take advantage of their teach
ing ability will not hesitate to get
behind a movement that will en
able children to benefit from even
a brief period of summer cate
chism school.
It is common knowledge and a
rightful boast that the world’s
finest cooks reside in Nome. It is
from Nome’s own kitchens that
the culinary masterpieces to be
found on sale July 3, will come.
Bids Are Asked For
Completion Mines Bldg.
Bids are called for the comple
tion of the Territorial Department
of Mines office building which
has been pending for several
years.
Funds to the amount of $100,
000 were appropriated by the leg
islature in 1949 but subsequently
were frozen with other territorial
assets.
As the funds are now available
again, negotiations are under way
for the purchase of the former tin
shop of Ed Gross located next to
the UJS. Mercantile and owned by
Larry Galvin. The lot was ac
quired from the U.S. Smelting Co.
by the city for the construction of
this building and is at the foot of
Steadman Ave.
With the importance of so many
strategic minerals located in the
area immediately surrounding
Nome, a proper building has been
a need of the Second Division for
a long time.
