NEW CANCER FILM
The new film, “Breast Self
Examination,” an American Can
cer Society and National Cancer
Institute project, can help prevent
most of the 20,000 deaths from
breast cancer if women heed the
warning to examine their breasts
monthly for lumps which might
mean early cancer. Support this
and the many other projects of
the American Cancer Society by
giving to the 1951 Cancer Crusade.
The colonel had insisted to his
Negro cook that the Thanksgiving
turkey be a- domestic, cornfed bird,
no wild fowl. Came the day and
the colonel cut into a beautiful,
done-to-perfection turkey, frown
ed, cut again, then sent for Sam.
“Didn’t I tell you I wanted a do
mestic bird?” he thundered.
“Yah, suh, dat’s a domestic,
corn-fed fowl.”
“Well, what about this shot I’m
finding?”
Sam shuffled from one foot to
the other. “Dat shot, colonel suh,
were meant fa’ me.”
Saps are the ones who keep
games of chance running and
make them profitable to the oper
ators.

Kotzebue News
' Kotzebue Wien Airlines has
added to its local personnel re- >
cently in preparation for the tour
ist trade which has developed so
greatly in recent years. Wien’s
planes are routed through the Arc
tic village from Fairbanks daily,
and carry from four to ten or
more tourists, who stay overnight
at the Wien Hotel, and are then
taken to Nome and back to Fair
banks on the second day of the
tour. A nightly feature is Eskimo
dancing, and cameras are in use
throughout 24 hours of daylight
with beluga, reindeer, native
dancing, and the native people
themselves providing endless sub
jects.
Frank Whaley, station manager,
has assisting him Neva Whaley,
hotel manager; Emma Kingeak,
helper;. Nancy Baker, tourist man
ager and program director; Jessie
Peterson, cook; Margaret Peter
son, bookkeeper; Levi Rexford
and Douglas Sheldon, freight and
transportation, and Frankie La
zarus, helper. Pilots John Cross,
Joe Wheeler and Tommy Richards
and mechanics Russell McConnell
and John Digger are kept busy
with the planes stationed at Kot
zebue.
Wien’s Hotel recently had 30
Coast and Geodetic men as guests
for several days. The group,
headed by Cmdr. Paul Taylor,
was enroute to Pt. Hope, out of
which they will be based for the
season’s work.
Brown and Hutton Air Service
have the contract for transporting
the Geodetic Survey groups in
Alaska, with planes based out of
Bethel, Point Hope and St. Law
rence Island. Nat Brown will be
remembered as an old-time bush
pilot. He and his partner, Parry
Hutton, purchased 14 Piper Super
Cub planes for this work.
The five being used in the Arc
tic were equipped in Kotzebue
with Whittaker tandem landing
gear. This involves the mounting
of two wheels in place of the
one used on conventional land
ing gear, allowing the planes to
land on very rugged or soft ter
rain, and landing and takeoffs on
150-foot runways.
