GERMANS LEARN
OF UNIVERSITY
AND ALASKA
Germans this month are read
ing about the Territory of Alaska
and its university.
“Deutsche Rundschau,” a Ger
man magazine similar to The At
lantic, carries a story by Dr.
Robert Rie, assistant professor of
German and French at the Uni
versity of Alaska.
The story tells about the terri
tory and points out that despite
the university’s location it boasts
an educational program, faculty
and campus similar to many of
those in continental United
States, and can be easily reached
by most forms of transporta
tion.
The article also emphasizes the
growth of the liberal arts pro
gram since the university’s
founding in 1922.
850 groups of Boy Scouts made
trips to Canada, Mexico, Cuba,
Puerto Rico, Alaska and Europe
in a year.

Scouts Launch
4-Year Program
During Scout Week
inis weeic, reDruary o to iz,
marks the 46th anniversary of
the Boy Scouts organization.
Since 1910 more than 24,500,000
American boys and adult leaders
have been identified with Scout
ing units. This week Scouts are
being helped to launch their
Four-Year Program known as
"Onward for God and My Coun
try”.
The new program will provide
for an increasing number of the
boys of the nation experiences
and values that will help them
meet their future more adequate
ly prepared.
"As Scouting influences the
lives of three million boys today,”
says Dr. Arthur A. Schuck, Chief
Scout Executive, ‘\ve must help
them to the realization and accept
ance of God as the guiding power
of the universe. We must inter
pret and find additional methods
to help a Scout in his own reli
gious life to fulfill his obligation
to God as stated in the Scout
Oath and Law.
“Scouting experiences,” he
continues, "must help the boy to
understand his country and its
ideals, its opportunities, and its
customs, and to understand the
values of our democratic system
and what it has meant to the peo
ple of America. It must give
him such opportunities that he
can help to carry out those ideals
and character traits expressed in
the purpose of this ‘Onward for
God and My Country’ program.”
The theme of the new program
is illustrated by a painting of
George Washington in prayer
above the heads of a Cub Scout,
Boy Scout, and Explorer. The
original painting was presented
to President Eisenhower, Febru
ary 8, the birthday of the organza
tion.

The annual March of Dimes
dance, which will be sponsored
by the Palmer B.P.O. Elks on
February 18, -will probably be
the final event through which
the public may participate in
current campaign.

came in during the past week in

M.V.F.C.A.—
grown in the Tanana Valley.”
The Tanana Association last
year produced around $200,000 in
produce.
Tanana Valley grains have
been proven of superior type. If
the grains can be grown in suf
ficient amount necessary for
daily and poultry consumption,
the possibility of shipping the
grains to the Palmer area where
they would be processed appears
good, Durrani said. The merger
will be worked into the planned
extending program of the local
Co-Op, he added. “If we can
eventually build a grain mill
here, it will be one way of keep
ing those dollars in Alaska. At
the present time expensive feed
shipments from the States is par
tially responsible for the high
cost of feed, and resulting retail
price of milk.
More than 5,000,000 pounds of
fresh whole milk was produced
last year in the M.V.F.C.A. This
is the largest production figure
esiapiisnea oy any Aiasnan
dairy group. With the merger of
the two associations, it is now
hoped that dairy farmers in the
Tanana Valley will be encourag
ed to expand and better their
present herds and farms, and
build up a good milk supply for
the Fairbanks area.
The local Co-Op was first or
ganized by the ARRC in 1935, at
the time of the Valley Colon- !
feation. A change-over to the
present operating system was
brought about over a period of
years, during which the Co-Op
had many ups and downs. Each
year they have gone ahead in
sales and expansion—this past
year they built and now have
in operation the modern Matan
uska Dairy in Anchorage from
which services to the Anchorage
area Eire dispensed. Two years ago
they constructed the Matanuska
Dairy in Fairbanks where thou
sands of half-pint containers are
filled each day with recombined
milk for the military; ice cream
and other Matanuska Maid pro
ducts are Etlso packaged and dis
tributed in the Fairbanks mar
kets. Over 100 individuals are
employed by the Co-Op in it’s
various departments and thou-.
Republican Speaker
Makes Brief Visit
To Palmer This Week
A hurriedly gathered group Of
area residents were on hand at
the Matanuska Hotel to greet
Irwin Lee Potter, of Washington,
D. C., assistant to Chairman
Leonard W. Hall of the Republi
can National Committee, when he
stopped in Palmer for a short
time Wednesday afternoon.
Speaking to the group Potter
urged the need of consistently
working together. ‘‘I have noticed
here in Alaska, the friendliness
of gatherings . . . everyone seems
to know everyone else . . . keep
these close contacts, and get be
hind your candidates and let
them know you are supporting
them,” he urged.
When questioned about Presi
dent Eisenhower, Potter said
that the Republican party is go
ing along on the assumption that
President Eisenhower will be a
candidate for re-election. ‘‘At the
present time the President is
keeping a full schedule . . . his
only change in routine is a 'siesta*
at noontime . . . probably after a
check-up he will have at the
Walter Reed Hospital next Mon
day we will know more about
his plans,” he said.
Prior to his trip to Palmer
Potter was a luncheon guest at
the home of Dr. and Mrs. Lee Mc
Kinley of the Butte. Traveling.to
Palmer with the Washington vis
itor were Mr. and Mrs. Jack
Hinkle of Kodiak (Mr. Hinkle, a
delegate to the constitutional con
vention, spoke briefly of the
convention); Mr. and Mrs. C. E.
Calhoun, of Seldovia; Mrs. Marie
McDowell of Chugiak; and Mrs.
Thomas Wharton, president of
the Anchorage Womens Republi
can Club.
Mrs. Wharton extended an in
vitation to all valley residents to
attend the Lincoln Day dinner
planned at the Idle Hour Coun
try Club this evening. Mr. Pot
ter will be the featured speaker
at the dinner.
