President Wilfred
Boueher Tells of
Queen Contest
President Wilfrid Boucher of
the Nome Kennel Club, at the
conclusion of the official counting
of the final votes, in part stated:
Ladies and gentlemen the final
voite has been counted and I have
the honor to present to you our
first Miss Nome and crown her
queen of the trail, to those of you
who are cheechaccos, a word of
explanation—the Nome Kennel
Club has always had a Queen of
the trail, who rules over all Car
nival festivities and is the official
starter of all dog races and pre
sents prizes to the winners of dog
races.
The Queen Contest this year
has not only been exciting but
a new departure in the distribu
tion of free votes issued by the
merchants of Nome on cash sales.
Nome has a very fine group of
young women, each of whom is
well qualified to represent Nome,
eaah one worthy of the entire sup I
port of Nome. My only w ish is
that it were possible to send all
of the contestants to Fairbanks, i
Each and every one has shown
find sportsmanship throughout
the entire contest and we are
proud of them.
President Boucher then com
manded that the huge curtain on
the stage be raised and then pre
sented Miss Nome—Margueritte
Lee sitting on a specially built
throne, with the other eight con
testants standing around Miss
Nome, it was a beautiful sight to
witness the other contestants
paying homage to our queen of
the trail, in real sourdough and
frontier fashion, and Miss Nome
received the applause of the aud
ience, after which she was crown
ed with the ordinary dog collar
trimmed with the colors of the
Nome Kennel Club.
Queen Margueritte's first duties
was then to present prizes to the
winners of the following dog rac
es. In the Cheechacco Relay Bur
den Race, two teams tied for first
place, so both teams were given
first prizes—Miss Bonstrom and
I
[Jordon Parlette winners,with the
John Kost team: Miss Bradshaw
and Rev. Vincent Widney winn
ers with the A1 Carey team.
The winners of the Queen Bur
den race to receive prizes, were I
A1 Carey, Pete Olson and John
McGluke.
Winners of the Cape Nome
Speed Race were then awarded
their prizes as follows: A1 Carey, \
John Norbert and Laurie Amuk- j
toolik.
President Boucher then announc ,
ed that the Nome Kennel Club
wishes to thank the Merchants
of Nome for their whole hearted
support and cooperation in mak
ing this the greatest contest and ;
carnival in years. We also wish i
to thank all individuals who help
ed to make this carnival a sue- j
cess.
