Sportsmanship And
Good Feeling
C
Fairbanks
The selection of M.ss Nome, at
the Fa.rbanka Ice Carnival, Tr.urs
day night, brmgs home the feel
ing that Nome -s literally pulKr.g
itself up by the bootstraps, and
taking part in civic ar.d territor
ial affairs. Too much isolation
for any c.ty spoils its spirit and
much of the incentive of its pop
ulation.
Nome would be negligent in
deed did it not offer a glowing
vote of cocgratu-aticn to M-si
Marguerite Lee. elected here as
M.ss Nome, and who was selected
to the boner of M.ss Aiasca
At the same time congratula
tions should be comm unseated to
the Fairbanks Ice Carnival Asso
ciat.on and the civic bodies m
Fairbanks w ho really made it pos
s-ble. by supplying the spectacu
.ar Ice Cam val .n the interior
city, to which other Alaskan ct
ies are .nvrted.
The.r spirit and determined
efforts to put over Fairbanks and
its many fine attributes, are to
be applauded
A year age only a handful of
Nomeites attended tie Ice Car
n.val. Thu year a M-ss Nome was
entered in the M.us Alaska Con
test many Nome, tea made the
tr.p for a vacation, ar.d a basket
ball team of seven members was
sent over. Nome suddenly came
awake to the need for inter-city
good will and contact, and the
fact that a Nome gir, became
M ss Alaska, is doubly assuring
that when Nome sr.eps out to
take its place with other cities in
such a fine affair, it goes whole
heartedly or none.
This years representation at
the Fairbanks Ice Carr„val clear
ly showed the interest and good
sportsmanship. for which Nome
_s famous. And before we close
our little speech, let's give Fair
banks and the other Alaskar. cit
es who took part, a rousing vote
of thanks.
