Nome sidewalks are gradually
emerging from their winter cov
ering of snow, which in some
places reaches an elevation of
from 3 to 4 feet. This transfor
mation is not due to the influ

once of the sun, which has been
conspicuous for its absence of
late, but to the efforts of picks
and shovels weilded by squads of
young men who are the tempor
ary guests of U. S. Marshal Gaff
ney's hostelry.

Nome day before yesterday ac
companied by Mrs. Herman. The

the addition of Mr. Ray Walker
to its pilot staff,bringing the num
ber of pilots engaged in the ser
vice of Nome’s locally owned avi
ation company up to four.
Pilot Walker received his fly

been engaged in the various bran

past 14 years. Immediately prior
to coming to Nome, Mr. Waker
was connected with the San Fran

chief pilot of the Willmington

period, during which time he
made 2.WO flights and carried
13,OW passengers between the
mainland and Catalina Island,
From 1930 to 1935 Pilot Walker
was private pilot for Wm. Ran
dolph Hearst, America’s largest
newspaper publisher. He has al
so served considerable time as a
test pilot for various plane fac
tories. among them the Cord
Corporation of California, for
whom he tested the Vultee plane
flown from California via Nome
to Moscow by Russian pilots last
fall.

Pilot Walker should prove a val
uable addition to the ranks of
Alaska’s intrepid and justly fam
ed riders of the sky lanes of the
North.
