MINING SHORT COURSE OPENED
NOVEMBER 35
The fact that the. Mining Short
Coarse at the Alaska College
opened this year. November 26 is
significant.
Many^of the men who take the
work this year will have cause
dtirihg the next few years to be
thanhful that they had foresight
edough to take advantage of the
opportunities offered in this Short
Course.
All signs point to a great gold
boom in Alaska next year. Prom
ising new gold discoveries will
nbt* have to go begging for flnane
es. Many old prospects and mines
fthich have been idle for years
Will be reopened and put into pro
duction. Next spring when .the
snow leaves the Alaska hills gold
may be commanding a price of
$35 to $40 per ounce.
Alaskans who desire to take ad
vantage of this unusual condition
should learn the different methods
of treating these ores. * i
The Short Course men leai;n 1
amalgamation by actually “dress
ing” the plates with mercury and
then operating the small stamp
mill at the College. In brief,
the scheme of the training is
learn hy do'ng.

to take care of 20 to 25 men in
the Short Course, this year. Ttaoke

With the rapid development of
the a'rplane and other modes of
transportation and the increasing
problems of traffic in our great
cities, what will New York look
like in 1980?
Huge modern stic skyscrapers
tower 200 and more s'orieg above
the street level. Fleets of air
planes, all equipped with heli
copters that permit straight up
and dawn flying,-coming to a com
plete stop in - the sir, cruise the
air lines. Aerial traffic cops, -In
anchored balloons, direct traffic.
Great air liners bring all the cap
itals of the world within a few
hours travel of the American met
ropolis. '' . # • •
Nine traffic - levels, are provided,
ranging from subways. surface
trams, elevated railways and five
automobile levels to a novel canal
system that permits great ocean
Users to traverse the main thorou
ghfares, discharging freight and
passengers much as do the huge
buses of our day.
Of the thousand and one nov-j
elties which add to the entertain

this dream city of 1980 probably
