Flu Quarantine
Officially Lifted
The quarantine which has existed
in Nome for the past two weeks was
officially removed this morning by
Dr Rex F. Swartz. Territorial Healtli
Officer.
Dr. Swartz stated that todate no
serious complications have develop
ed from the mild attacks of flu ex
perienced by many during the past
two weeks, and that in his opinion
there is no further need of a quar
antine on public functions.
The Dream Theatre is opening this
evening with the first show for two
weeks, and possibly will have a
crowded house, as many of the cit
izens of Nome are looking forward
to entertainments and recreations.
Churches will conduct their usual
Sunday services tomorrow.
Talks of dance are also common
and it is expected within the next
week that several public functions
and entertainments may be forth
coming.
Nome has been especially fortun
ate in that there have been no ser
ious or fatal results of the flu. Oth
er cities in Alaska were not as for
tunate in that several deaths oc
curred, removing citizens who were
in the prime of life. We have much
to be thankful for that the epidemic
in Nome was handled so efficiently
by Dr. Swartz and his emergency
staff of nurses including Miss Ada
line Davick, Mrs. Kurt Sprenger
and Miss Elinor G. Benawa. who as
sisted materially in controlling as
much as possible the spread of the
disease. Their efforts have culmin
ated in every case in speedy recov
ery without serious complications.
Both the Nome Public School and
the Office of Indian Affairs Native
School will resume classes Monday
morning at 9:00 am after an en
forced vacation due to the flu epi
demic which has been prevalent in
Nome during the past two weeks.
