Rotarian Don Hendershot final
ly closed the course on atomic
energy and distruction with yes
terday’s session at Rotary’s noon
luncheon.
Wearing loose-fitting white
clothes in a steel reinforced con
crete building, particularly if lead
shielded and one were so fortu
nate as to be wearing gieger coun
ter, gas mask, and shatter-proof
i
glasses—a person might have a
pretty good chance if the zero
point were not too close.
Well, anyway, Nome likely
won’t be too close.
Guests were Duane Force, Boy
Scouts of America, Fairbanks, and
Maj. Charles Durell, ACS, Fair
banks.
Mrs. Joe Hunt has recuperated
from her recent hospitalization in
Fairbanks and has accepted a

HALVERSON TO EXPLORE
BERING SEA ISLAND
Mr. Olaf Halverson plans to do
a little exploring this summer on
one of the remote islands of the
Bering Sea. He perhaps will be
leaving within a few days and
will not return to teach at Nome
this fall. He plans on teaching in
another section of Alaska.
A host of friends, both students
and parents will greatly miss him
after six years of devoted work
as high school principal.
After four more years of teach
ing. Mr. Halverson plans on doing
graduate work at the University
of Minnesota. He plans to get his
M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. Then he
plans to write a book and do re
search in the fields of science and
invention.
i
The readers of the Nugget are
indebted to Mr. Halverson for his
astronomical observations. Young
and old are interested in the stars
of the northern sky during the
long winter months.
