BETA SIGMA PHIS MEET
AT NURSES' QUARTERS
News from the Kappa Chapter
of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority takes
a departure from the usual style
of reporting today, to be present
ed in the form of a letter.
Dear Friends:
Beta Sigma Phi—Kappa Chap
ter held another pleasant meeting
Thursday evening, November 9.
This time we met at the Nurses’
quarters in the local hospital. You
may recall that two of the soror
ity’s members reside there: Misses
Linda Musgrave and Edna Miller.
They were our gracious hostesses.
As we arrived on this snowy eve
ning- it is now mukluk and parka
weather >, we were happy to greet
a visitor — Airs. Teresa MacDon
ald, who was doubly welcome as
the mother of one of our mem
bers, Airs. Terry Fisher, and
mother in law of our president,
1 A Vs. Ruth McLean.
Then, for good measure, we had
anVher visitor. Aliss Ruth Gum
binsky, who entertained us with
interesting color slides of South
Korea, taken when she was in
Korea in 1948.
We conducted our business
meeting in a lively manner and
proceeded to* the evening’s pro
gram. which was an interpreta
tion of “Friendship” and its sig
nificance in our daily lives. Miss
r Mary Roell spoke on its value as
the highest relation of man to
man, and Miss Caroline McLain
gave in account of exemplary
celebrated friendships in history,
notably those of Damon and Pyth
ias, Elizabeth Barrett and Robert
Browning, and more recently the
friendship to his fellowmen of the
patriot* Roger Young.
Our Torch Girl, Miss Edna Mil
ler, pointed out to us a helpful
article in the new “Torch” maga
zine, of special interest to those
of us who get “weak-kneed when

speaking.” The title o‘f the article,
amusingly enough, was “Starch
for Weak Knees.”
Miss Gumbinsky's commentary
| on the Korean slides was quite
colorful, and then during our so
cial hour, while we enjoyed re
j freshing fruit dessert and tea (or
j coffee) we discussed many phases
of the Korean situation and the
Korean people.
Our next meeting promises to
be another interesting one and we
plan to discuss the Christmas
plans in detail. I will try to re

' “Secret Sisters” activities, also,
for the past few months.
Until then,
Your Beta Sigma Phi Reporter.

than 100,000 inhabitants but twice
the size of Texas constitutes a
geopolitical vacuum that must o*f
fer a singular attraction to a hos

! territory.”
Asked by a reporter to amplify
j on his volcanic-heat suggestion,
i Landsburg said:
“It’s been done already, to a
limited extent, in Nagles. The
people utilize steam coming from
ground gaps near volcanic Vesu
i vius to run their laundries.
“In theory at least, there’s no
; reason why we couldn’t pump wa
iter into the ground near volcanoes
of Alaska and the Aleutian chain
i so that it would reach a level suf
; ficiently hot to cc/nvert it into
1 steam and them come out through
i natural gaps.
“We do not know how extensive
1 such gaps are in the vicinity of
our northern volcanoes because
they have not been sufficiently
explored. It’s even conceivable
that if they were not extensive
^enough, artificial wells might be
drilled into the ground. But, of
course, the practicality of all such
operations would have to be thor
oughly investigated.
“If it did prove practical, how
ever, it would be a source of
steam for heat and perhaps power
applicable for peacetime as well
as wartime purposes.”
Capt. Lincoln Osl, who’ is sta
tioned in Anchorage with the U.
S. Army arrived over the week
end on business in connection
with the National Guard unit
here, and is also enjoying seeing
his many friends in the commun
ity.
