NOTE'S
The Matanuska Valley Chamber of Commerce
met in the Basement of the Lutheran Church
on Wednesday May 7, at Noon Luncheon.
There was a good turn-out.
Several reports were made which included
one by Rev, Alfsen on the'progress being
made in the publication of the Matanueka
Valley folders. It is ho^od chat these
will bo ready shortly. They will bo in
two colors and the articles about the
Valley are to be written by different
local people.
Mr. Allyn stated that the Co-op had been
unable to complete their share of the Clean
up work around the Civic Center due to the
emergency construction of the new addition
to the Creamery. However, he stated that
they did intend to finish the Clean-un.
Rev, Zeile and several others said that
they thought that there had been a very
decided improvement even though the work
was not complete at the present time.
Rev. Zeile called for Voltmtoers to work
on the 'uonsot this next Wednesday May 14.
Rev. Alfsen suggested that the Chamber
ask for the Information Booth at the coming
Valley Fair late this summer. 'A vote was
taken in favor of this project.
Don Irwin renorted on the contemplated
inauguration of a daily trip between here
and Anchorage with the new Direct Drive
Diesel car. He requested information as
to the most convenient schedule’that could
be worked out with the railroad. It was
the opinion of those present • : that
the car should be stationed in Palmer so
that the run could be made from"here to
Anchorage and back the same day. The car
would leave hero about 8 a.m.'and start
back from Anchorage- at 3:30 a.m. This
schedule it was thought mould permit the
airmail for the day to be picked up and
brought to Palmer the same day as it ar
rived rather than being held over until
the next day as is now the case.
This run would not permit persons working
in Anchorage to make the trip back and
forth to work. The only solution that
could bo worked out for employed persons
would be to arrange two trips per day—
one down and back in the morning and an-'
other down and hack later in the oyehing.
These, suggestions of course are only tenta
tive and the people of the Valley arc urged
to make their needs known. If enough
people asked for two trips daily, this
could be arranged. It was also poiriied
out that persons serving on the jury wcflfcld
be able to reach the Court Room by 10 a.m.
without having to take a taxi or go to
Anchorage the day before reporting.
