Joe Harnish, Agent
Mozee Girl Again
Jumps Into First
ace Miss Nome
(Continued From Page One)
to whether Leona should be al
lowed to enter the race. After
listening attentatively to Joe’s
pleadings his heart softened.
“Joe” stated that Leona was a
very beautiful and popular girl
and all of the Kougarokers would
vouch for her, particularly some
of the old timers like Billy An
derson, A1 Carey, Charlie Ken
nedy and Harvey Grant.
A quick canvas of the crowd
was made for those mentioned,
all of whom said Leona wras pure
gold and to allow her to enter the
race. After the approval of sev
eral Kennel Chub members it was
suggested that the question be
decided by the applause of the
crowd. The audience gave Leo
na a tremendous ovation, where
upon “Joe” reached for his poke
and put up the $5.00 nomination
fee.
Mrs. Neva Whaley helped
Leona tidy up a bit and in a few
minutes Leona appeared blushing
amid the tremendous uproar of
the crowd. The audience was
taken back by her extreme beau
ty, a voluptuous blonde of the
amazon type, standing fully six
feet three in her mukluks. Dress
ed in a faun skin bathing suit
which was artistically draped ov
er her beautiful form, shod in
mukluks, and topped off with a
luxuriant growth of beautiful
blonde hair, she gracefully went
thru her paces.
She left the stage with the
crowd wild and roaring and judg
ing by the reception the audience
gave her, she will be the dark
horse in the beauty contest.
Leona is out to win and we will
attempt to inform the public
daily of her progress.
Rather than have two members
of the Nome Kennel Club on the
vote counting committee, Wilfred
Boucher yesterday withdrew and
appointed Chas. Code. The com
mittee now includes Chief W. W.
Laws, Eld. Steffen and Chas Code.

17 Hundred Demos
Helped Farley
Celebrate
(By The Associated Press)
WASHINGTON D. C. Feb. 16,
—Seventeen hundred Democrats
including Franklin D. Roosevelt,
President of the United States,
and John N. Garner the Vice
President, paid tribute; to Jam
es A. Farley, Democratic Chief
tain at a huge banquet last
night.
In his speech to his many co
workers President Roosevelt did
not mention his court reorgani
zation program.
The names of Maine and Ver
mont were booed laughingly in
the state by state introduction of
distinguished guests. ,
The President referred to Far
ley as the greatest of all political
prophets because he predicted
the Democrats would lose only
Maine and Vermont in the gen
eral election which took place in
November.

Interest in Nenana
Ice Pool Awakened
All eyes are turned toward the
historic Nenana Ice Pool, as the
days get longer and spring swift
ly approaches.
Every year since 1917, when
the big idea really hit Alaska,
the moving out of the ice at Ne
nana has been the occasion for
the most interesting guessing eon
test in the country. To the per
son or persons who guess the
month, day hour and minute, or
come the closest to guessing the
actual time the ice moves out at
Nenana, goes nearly sixty thous
and dollars.
It wa§. learned that guessing
tickets were received in Nome by
H. R. Phillips, the other day. Fol
lowing are the dates when the
ice went out, from 1917 todate:
1917 April 30 ... 11:30 AM

G. R. Grubbe (ai.ove), watchman at
a Shelton, Wash., mill reported to
police that two men in a coupe
ordered him to tell Dr. W. W. Matt
