“Open House” Last Evening At Newly
Constructed School Building
Attended More Than 500
L<ast evening approximately 500
people turned out to attend the
"Open House” and dedication of
the new Name public school whi
ch was completed this summer
and fall, at a cost of something
close to $90,000.00.
It was a great surprise to most
of those attending to see such a
tine modern building, and many
remarked that they felt like
attending school again, it looked
j so inviting and uptodate.
The gymnasium which is large
enough, not only to accommodate
school activities but for all civic
affairs as well, has a seating
capacity on the floor for 500 and
another additional 200 more in
the gallery. The stage is well
proportioned and well lighted
and in the top center are the
letters N.H.S. in silver with a
deep wine colored curtain.
When the curtain was drawn
and practically every seat being
occupied, it disposed members of
the school board, city officials,
Superintendent Calvin Poole and
Rev. Vincent W:dney, sitting in a
semi.circle on Ihe stage.
Councilman / Ivin Polet, chair
man of the city council school
committee, acted as chairman of!
the program activities, which be.
gan with an invocation by the
Rev. Widney. Councilman Polet
then gave a brief talk about the
new school and was followed by
City Clerk M. J. Walsh, who
described in minute details how
the money was raised to finance
its construction, giving credit to
the numerous ones whose assist,
ance was greatly desired, and fin
ally mentioning the name of the
one person, who after all, made
it possible to construct the school
by his aid,—President Franklin
D. Rooseveft. The mentioning of
his name brought down a
tremendous applause thus ending
Mr. Walsh’s talk.
Chairman Polet thanked Mr.
Walsh and at the same time let
the audience know that there was
one other name that should be
mentioned in helping to build this
fine school building, and was Mr.
Walsh, who labored untiring to
bring about the results. Mr. Wal
sh is 2nd Division Member of the
Territorial Board of Education.
Mayor Ed. Seidenverg made a
short -speech following which he
turned over the key of the new
school building to Aimer Rydeen
president of the board who ac_
cepted it in the name of the Nome
School Board, including Mrs. W.
F. Baldwin and Mrs. Carrie Mc
Lain as members.
Superintendent Poole addressed
the audience and briefly said that
the older boys and girls had plan
ned an act, but due to the fact
the ‘butler” in the show took sick
it was impossible to put it on
tonight, but promised something
at some future date. The hour
getting late the children’s program
was immediate begun and all in
all was greatly enjoyed by the
audience. After a flag salute on
Armistice Day, and the singing
of a patriotic song led by Miss
Scott, participated in by the audi
ence, the program came to an
end,
Then followed a general in
spection of the building, includ.
ing the class rooms, the domestic
science and homemaking depart
ment where steaming hot coffee
and delicious cakes, etc., were
served; a visit to the manual
training room, the boiler room,
and what have you. Everyone
delighted and pleased with the
new school and its competent
staff of teachers, who courteously
showed the citizens of the town
thru their rooms.

“Mr .
BartholomaeOil
Corp. Dredge At
Teller Did Good
B. W. Vallat, manager in Alas,
ka for the Bartholomoe Oil Cor- j
poration which operates a gold |
dredge on Gold Run, in the Teller
mining district, accompanied by
Chief Engineer in charge of Ex
ploration George Hellerich, for.
mer member of the Alaska Legis
lature, is leaving on the plane to
day for Fairbanks and the outside
following an unusually fine min.
ing season.
The dredge is digging up stream
on Gold Run Creek, and at pre
sent is in safe winter quarters,
ready to commence again in the
spring as soon as the breakup
comes.
Mr. Vallat declared that they
had a record running year, com
mencing June 7th and closing
down, due to the freezeup, Oct.
12th. The drilling campaign car.
ried on under Mr. Hellerich’s su
pervision, comprised a period of
nearly six months. There are
only certain sections where it is
necessary to call in the cold wa
ter thawing^ the remainder of
the ground being partially thaw,
ed and suitable for dredging. Af
ter the shutdown of the dredge,
drilling continued until just re
cently when both Mr. ValLat and
Mr. Hellerich flew to Nome, to
take a plane for Fairbanks and
the States.
No serious shutdowns were ex
perienced during the recent sea
son just closed, and water and
every other condition was espec
ially favorable for the taking out
of gold in that section.
Mr. Valtat, before taking the
plane, declared he expected to re_
turn to Nome and Teller early in
the spring to place everything in
readiness for an early start, fol
lowing the breakup.
