John Alcantra, head of Gov
ernor William A. Egan’s An
chorage office, was a visitor at
the meeting and said that he
anticipates the legislature will
run at least 10 days over time
and that some five to seven
days will be spent on the !
budget. Other bills voted on |
will go through in a hurry, he
pointed out, and those opposed
could be badly defeate 1 at this
time.
AI Brooks, on behalf of
Robert Vroman, asked mem
bers of the community to be
especially careful in sign
ing any petitions for the crea
tion of local boroughs. Ii
will only take a few signa
tures from this area, on an
Anchorage borough petition,
to get us included. Brooks
said, and advised that all j
persons signing petitions
carefully read the text to be i
certain of the intent.

cordion music by KEITH will

furniture of tangerine and

Bob) will be open along with
the bar each day and night
and will be available for spe
cial afternoon or evening cock
tail parties, the management

LOST!
The Palmer Kiwanis Club is

knowing the whereabouts of
the light are asked to please

the Goose Bay-McKenzie
Point area must necessarily
be met by inclusion within
the Matanuska-Susitna Bor
ough to enable the dispute
to be brought to the atten
tion of the Local Boundary
Commission.
Residents of the areas were
encouraged to hold further
meetings and to culminate
their decision at a general
meeting to be held April 1,
;.r the Burma RocJ Schod. u
was encouraged that in the
event the idea of remaining
unorganized could not with
stand state attitudes, tne
group should establish their
choice of boroughs at that
meeting.
“Anchorage’s display of de
sire for this area was some
what discouraged by the dis- j
tance travelled by it’s repre
sentation,” V r oman said. |
“However, it’s challenge to the
Matanuska - Susitna Borough
by it’s intrusion into our ad
joining area is by no means
lessened,” he added. It was in
dicated the Anchorage Cham
ber of Commerce will send
representatives to the April 1
meeting, with sufficient argu
ments to win sentiment for tne
avocation of a large borough.
Representatives of the
Matanuska-Susitna Borough
group have accepted the
challenge, Vroman report
ed, and will help develop one
of the most interesting meet
ings to come out of the re
cent borough discussions.
“If ever the time has come
■ for the people of the Matanus
ka-Susitna areas to unite in a
common cause, now is that
time,’’ Vroman stated. “We
must have assistance from all
agencies, organizations and lo
cal governments who can help
in preparing fiscal, social, cul
tural, historical and utility ar
guments; in defense of the Mat
anuska-Susitna Borough and
why the Goose Bay-McKenzie
Point area is a part of this
proposed borough.
“We need material immed
iately so that it may be assimil
ated, representatives to present
the facts and most of all. unity
in the concept that ‘local gov
ernment should increase the
voice of the governed to t h t
greatest degree fiscally pos
sible. If we can maintain £
' government that is responsive
I to the people to the degree
they desire, then there is nc
need to increase the tax bur
: den associated with complex
bureauacracies,” Vroman said
. Replies to his appeal may be

WHO’S KIDDING WHO
ABOUT THE COMPACTS'?
Now that Falcon sales have passer! the
million rrark, everyone wants in on the act.
But no other compact even begins to match
Falcon’s record gas mileage, low prices and
owner-proven value. For example:
Why pay up to $418* moro... and get less?
Falcon has the lowest prices for 6-cylinder,
6-passenger sedans and wagons. Falcon’s
popularity assures you that you 11 save when
you trade.
Why take 2nd or 3rd best gas savings?
Last year’s Falcon Six posted the highest
mileage per gallon for any Six or Light in
the history of the Mobilgas Economy Run!
And this year’s Falcon Six is an improved
,-i.i-vinn nf this economy champ!
Why settle for less
than 109J/2-inch wheelbase?
Falcon’s 109’ 2-inch wheelbase is almost 10
inches longer than that, of another compact.
Come see what this does for the ride!
Why not insist on a fall choice of models?
No other compact gives you as great a
choice. Five different sedans and eight
different wagons!
Why settle for less than top quality?
Falcon’s quality shines out for ail to see.
Typical quality “extras” available are
6,000 miles between oil changes, 2-year or
30,000-mile engine coolant-antifreeze and
fully aluminized mufflers. Falcon's the
incomparable compact!
