CUB SCOUTS HAVE
BERRY PIE SUPPER
1* | l, » 1**^
Tonight, Friday, at 7 p.m., the
Cub Scouts of Nome and their
■ r . • -jj! • « #jr.
guests, are having a Berry Pie
supper. Pie—and nothing else—
will be the order of the hour, the
Cubs decided, as they picked the
millions of berries on Wednesday.
There seemed to be plenty of
berries — blue, cranberry, and
black, and the cubs had talked
enough mothers into being pie
bakers to provide about a dozen
and a half pies.
Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Lennon of
the CAA left yesterday for Cor
dova where they will be stationed
with that department. They have
been here for the past two years.

Spare Time Pays Off.
On Nome’s Gold Beach
What to do with spare time in
Nome was no problem for three
electrical workers awaiting trans
portation to St. Lawrence Island
yesterday.
They borrowed a gold pan from
the North Star Grill and spent a
pleasant afternoon panning gold
on the beach, just as they had
read about — and found a pay
streak.
Don Pickrel, Jack Hecla, and
Fred Ruetten can prove their
story because they sold five dol
lars worth of gold dust to our
local jeweler!
