Fairbanks Lads
Take Top Spots In
jNenana Marathon
Fairbanks spray kings pulled a
complete reversal from last year
by racking up victories in all but
one class in the fifth annua! Fair
banks-Nenana Marathon Saturday.
Anchorage outboard motor en
thusiasts swept all but the river
boat class a year ago when Local
Commodore Marty Gray was the
oniy Fairbanks winner.
In Saturday’s race over the gruel
ing 140 mile course, Fairbanksans
Allan Persinger, Jim Luce, Rex
Manchester and Mike Dozette car
ried aw?ay top honors in the pleas
ure boat, 36 cubic inch, B utility
and D utility classes respectively.
The only Anchorage winner was
Bud Tout whose riverboat churned
through the chilled waters in four
hours, 44 minutes and 56 seconds.
Bad luck befell all four entries in
the unlimited class and none wr§s
able to finish because of spills, mo
tor failure, or turning left when
they should have turned full right
rudder and headed up the wrong
river.
Mike Dozette. winning skipper in
the D utility class posted the fast
est time over the tough grind. He
was clocked in three hours, 39 min
utes and 41 seconds. Rex Manchest
er roared under the Chena bridge
in three hours, 43 minutes and 26
seconds. A1 Persinger recorded a
time of three hours, 47 minutes
and 59 seconds in his pleasure boat
and Jim Luce stopped the watches
after four hours, 23 minutes and 29
seconds.
More than 30 top notch skippers
2oomed across the starting line at
the new Chena bridge in Fairbanks
Saturday but barely half that
amount were able to finish the race.
Some boats were towed back to

Two Nurses Join
Hospital Staff
Mrs. Helen E. Kanzenbach and
Mrs. Janet Buckland recently
joined the nursing staff'at St. Jo
seph's hospital. Both nurses came
to the Territory with their hus
bands who are in the service, both
couples have four children, and
both families live at Island Homes..
M/Sgt. Melvin A. Kanzenbach is
with the Army at Ladd. He is with
the 93rd AAA Battalion.
T'Sgt. Herbert Buckland is with
the 5001st Transportation squadron
at Ladd.
Mrs. Kanzenbach took her train
ing in St. Paul, Minn. Mr. Buckland
trained at St. Joseph's hospital in
Lowell, Mass.
Fairbanks as late as Sunday as hard
luck on the swift and treacherous
Tanana took its toll.
Sig Bredlie,. local water jockey
who was leading the pack at fhe
half way point at Nenana, was 40
miles up the Wood river with Anch
orage ace Ray Mickelson on his tail
before realizing they had taken the
wrong river.
Many of the contestants were
forced out of the race because of
flips and motor trouble. Defending
champion Leo Gagne of Anchorage
snapped the fuel line on his hydro
plane during the first leg of the
journey downriver to Jtfenana. Sev
eral other racers speeding over the
rugged, windy course for the first
time wound up high and dry on
sandbars where they awaited res
cue.
Time keepers at the finish line
finally gave up their vigil and went
home with many boats still stranded
somewhere on (or off) the course.
A few of the surf skimmers, al
though reported safe, had not re
turned to Fairbanks by 11:00 p.m.
for the victory banquet at the Fire
side.
For obvious reasons the outboard
association's races scheduled for
Sunday at the racing pit off the
Richardson highway were cancelled.
As Commodore Marty Gray put it.
‘‘Everybody was broke down and
none of the guys really felt like
racing.”
