BRIEF ITEMS FROM ALL
PARTS OF THE TERRITORY
cVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
PRESS OF ALASKA
___
Four oldtimers left the inter
ior recently en route to the Pi
oneer Home at Sitka. James
Careny, William Farrell and
W. Diamond are from Fair
banks, while the fourth, named
Rice, is from Nenana.
Radio station GGBU, at Ket
chikan, which formerly oper
ated on a wave-length of 228.9
meters, was recently assigned
a new wave-length of 399.8.
meters and is now operating
under the new assignment.
In order to create a demand
for halibut, the prices of which
are at a low ebb, two Juneau
women, Mrs. Harry M. Sabin
and Mrs. Olaf Winters recent
ly started making home made
fish balls, which were placed
on sale in the local grocery
stores. The demand soon
swamped the manufacturers
and others will probably be
forced to take up making
them.
The floating logging camp of
Ole Dahl, at the head of 12
Mile Arm, Kassaan Bay, was
destroyed by fire recently.
Three men on board at the
time narrowly escaped with
their lives. The fire started in
the kitchen, and the men were
compelled to leave hurriedly.
All of their clothing, watches,
and personal effects were de
stroyed, together with a quant
ity of tools.
Lief Russell, former member j
of the Fairbanks News-Miner
staff, and for the last few
years on the staff of the Ketch
ikan Chronicle, with a partner,
has started in business for
himself in the First City. He
has opened a job printing
plant and is doing well.
Already establisehd at Fair
banks, along the Tanana and
Yukon rivers, ahd in what is
known as the upper Kusko
kwim district, the Northern
Commercial Company is now
establishing a chain of trading
posts along the lower Kusko
kwim river, where there is a
large annual fur yield. The
company recently acquired the
big Felder store at Bethel and
will have posts also at Akiak
and Nunivak Island. The com
pny already has a store at Nel
son Island, and with the new
acqusitions will cover that sect
ion of Alaska very completely.
Parties knowing the where
abouts of Chas. McFadden,
who was in Ketchikan from
September 1926 to April 1927,
or C. P. (Bud) Tolson, who
came to Alaska about 1903,
are requested to communicate
with the Governor’s Office,
Juneau, Alaska.
Ed Ryder, pioneer miner of
the Iditarod country, recently J
dropped dead in his cabin on !
Old Discovery,, on Flat Creek. J
