CAP News
Officers of the Nome Squadron,
CAP, met in a Short session
Wednesday evening preparatory
to laying plans for an intensified
CAP program for the winter.
It was announced by Fred
Parsons, communications officer,
that with the arrival of a few
more parts, the Nome Squadron
will have its own long - range
radio communications station.
Present plans call for the station
to be manned most of the day.
A welcome addition to the Nome
Squadron is Major John Cooley,
who has achieved flying status.
The squadron has been handicap
ped by the lack of CAP-qualified
pilots for the Stinson L-5. The
addition of Major Cooley to the
pilots roster will • probably bring
more aerial activity to the CAP
program here.
General Beau, national com
mander of CAP, in his recent
visit, called on the Nome Squad
ron to supply information, news
stories and pictures of aviation
developments in the north. Nome’s
position, he asserted, was unique
in its geographical relation to the
defense of Alaska.
WIEN AIRLINES
Arriving in Nome were W. A.
Mann, C.H. Pearson, R.L. Scheur
ing, Henry Miller, Edward King
ek, Dorcus Numnik, Frank Stin

Fish, Henry Simpson, Robert

banks this morning flying the
Norseman. L. E. Davis also de
parted for Fairbanks.

struction Co.; Dr. Theodore Hyn

Time his distorted the founda
tion of the main building which
is resting on pilings set in the
permafrost. According to science,
pressure produces heat, so there
has been a slow, gradual settling
of the building. Mr. Gillis and
his men have leveled up the
building and again the floors are
straight and level.
