It's Always "Clear Weather" with Radar
Even at night in fog so thick you
• *
cannot see your hand before your face,
radar can "see” as though it were a
bright and sunny day.
Radar equipment on Alaska Steam
ship Company ships makes it possible
for captains to know their exact posi
tions in all kinds of weather. The radar
screen gfres a clear picture of the coast
line and any other ships in the area, as
suring maximum safety.
Before radar was installed, fog and
other thick weather materially delayed
A
ships and sometimes kept them tied up
in port. These delays added to the costs
of operation.
Now radar is helping to eliminate
such costs. This equipment — coupled
with the know-how of Alaska Line
captains with years of experience in
northern waters - means fewer expen
sive delays... more reliable and econom
ical service. This is just one of a number
of things the Alaska Steamship Com
pany is doing to make its service more
dependable and to keep its rates at the
most reasonable level possible.

Fur Rendezvous
Basketball Results
• As reported by June Dunbar an<»
Jeanette Fagerstrom*
The Anchorage Rendezvous
Basketball Tournament started
with a bang Feb. 16th when Ko
diak defeated Cordova by a lead
of 14 points. Nome was also sched
uled to play Wasilla. but due to
snow-covered roads, Wasilla was
unable to get to Anchorage that
day. Since they failed to come
Thursday they forfeited the game
to Nome.
On Nome’s first encounter with
Kodiak, Feb. 17, they showed their
superiority by beating the shorter
Kodiak team 40-31. There was a
lot of action throughout the game
and Nome kept her lead, the score
at the half being 19-7.
The next day Kodiak whipped
Cordova by a score of 38-24. the
high point man on the Kodiak
team being Lawrence Anderson.
Saturday night Kodiak and
Nome played for the Class 75
championship. The wildly, cheer
ing crowds watched a very fought
game that night. The Kodiak
Bears and Nome battled to gain a
lead and at the end the score was
39-35, Kodiak’s favor.
Kodiak and Nome had now lost
one game each and so Sunday had
to play over for the championship.
This game offered more excite
ment than Saturday’s game. At
the end of the third quarter, Ko
diak had a large lead. Nome then
put in two of her best players,
Harold Bell and Aarnout Caste!,
and they quickly brought up the
score. The final bell sounded a
little too soon and before Nome
could make another basket. Ko
diak had won 31-29 for the Class
B championship.
Through hard playing and no
gripes Nomes showed her sports
manship.
The Class A games offered
many great plays also. After Sew
ard beat Palmer by two baskets
they played Anchorage for the
Class A championship. All through
the game the score was very close
and Anchorage fans and cheer
leaders lifted the crowd’s spirit
with manj’ flashy yells. After a
hard battle, Anchorage beat Sew
ard by 5 points, to win the much
coveted trophy. Anchorage now
will play the winner of the bas
ketball series of Southeastern
Alaska.
All the teams fought hard and
Nome should be exceptionally
proud of her team.
Quarters were provided for the
i team at Fort Richardson and the
; girls visited friends in town.
