Annual Red Cross
Drive Under Way
The annual Red Cross drive is
under way in the city of Nome.
Many citizens have commented
on the lateness of the drive, but
the reason the drive is so late
is due to the many social funct
ions which were being held at the
time the drive was set that it
had to be postponed.
However, donations are coming
in freely and few are turning the
committee down on this cause.
It will be impossible for all of
the citizens to be contacted, how
ever anyone wishing to contrib
ute may do so by leaving their
donation with Chairmen Doug
Johnson, room 1, Federal build
ing. Mrs. Stan Morgan, Secretary,
at the Miners and Merchants
Bank: Mrs. Ralph Kitzmiller. City
Hall: Mrs. Ben Mozee, Federal
building; Mrs. Dick Webb. Wien
Airlines office: and Miss Eunice

lobby section of the Federal build

tributions.
To date a total of $236.50 has
been collected.
