: Bust of Washington to
Be Pretented to Alaska
The United States George
Washington Bicentennial Com
nision, of which Herbert Hoov
I ?r is president, has requested
Delegate Wickersham to pre
j ;ent to the governor of the
| Territory of Alaska, a marble
bust of George Washington,
and to arrange for attendant
ceremonies. As the delegate
will not be in the North this
fall, he has delegated the
authority for preparing for
this memorial event to those
people at the Territorial cap
ital who are descendants of
the Daughters and Sons of the
American Republic. The bust
has been shipped to Juneau
and a committee will see that
a member of one of the organ
izations will be selected to
make the presentation address
to Governor Parks.
Gigantic Glacier is Seeing
Things and Going Places
The pranks of a gigantic
glacier is causing no end of
worry to map makers whose
task it is to draw the contours
of Alaska and British Colum
bia.
For the Grand Pacific Glacier,
located in Glacier Bay on the
international Boundary, is un
ible to make up its mind
.vhether it should keep its ice
rout in Alaska or Canada.
Official maps now show the
ce front to be in Alaska, but
i recent check shows that the
glacier has literally shaken
.he dust of Alaska from itr
feet and has withdrawn tc
Canada. Its recessions in recent
vears will be studied this sum
mer with the idea of locating
x tourist base in the area.
Gov. George A. Parks ha
been invited to accompany J.
P. Ford, division engineer oi
he Department of Public
Works of Canada, to visit the
Jistrict this month.
