ICE WORMS TO INFEST CORDOVA fEB.. S, 9, 10.
Have you ever seen an ICEWORM? Well,
evidently you haven't because you still
have enough sense to read a paper. i
Most of us in the Copper River Basin
are fairly safe because the mountains are
far away. Its obvious that the iceworms
are from mountainous country since the
residents of Cordova,, our neighbors to
the south, have witnessed one for the
past two years. They are already pre
paring for the worm's 1963 appearing.
From past experience, denizens of the
city believe that the dragon-like head of
the thing will appear February 3. As a
rule it takes about three days for him
to slither through Cordova, thus he
should be gone by the end of the day of
February 10.
Cordovans must undergo an anxious
anticipated fear. It is evident that
some are really shaken by the ordeal.
For example, the "Cordova Times’ head
line spells February as "Fearuary. This
is really something because the Times'
staff rarely misspells a word. Especially
one of the twelve months of the year!
It is actually hard to imagine this ex
perience until you have been through it.
If you desire such an experience,
surely the people of Cordova will more
than welcome your help in the Iceworm
Festival. A view of the worm apparently
creates a festive mood. This festive
mood is increased by joining tohers for
Gala Entertainment.
So make up a party and go to Cordova
on Friday, Fearuary 8th and return on
Sunday, the 10th.
