We in Seward have been
coasting along on a phenomenal
run of good luck. Good luck in
that we have had no disastrous
fires, earthquakes or bombing
raids in the last few years.
How long can our luck run?
True, there have been some
drownings, which are annual
calamaties to isolated families,
but as a whole things have been
quiet.
Civil Defense authorities have
been trying for several months
to urge isolated communities to
take some sort of precautionary
measures to take care of them
selves in case of emergency.
“What’s the use" seems to be
the watchword here. People
simply will not be concerned.
Are we emulating the ostrich?
Sticking our heads in the sand,
hiding from realities in the hope
that ignorance will mean safety?
There are several preparatory
Luuioca ui mdu uLuuu avauauii'
in Seward for people interested
in knowing how to take care of
themselves and others in dis
aster. Are they to continue to
fail for lack of interest in our
own welfare?
BARTLETT ASKS OPEN
MARKET FOR U.S. GOLD
AP Special Washington Service
Washington i.-T* — Delegate
Bartlett (D-Alaska) renewed his
appeal yesterday that American
gold miners be permitted to sell
their gold on a free market.
Canada announced last week
that it is granting that privilege
to Canadian miners.
In a letter to Secretary of
Treasury Snyder. Bartlett said
American miners deserve at
least the same consideration as
Canadian miners.
•The discriminations against
American miners have been par
ticularly severe,” Bartlett said,
and hace increased as inflation
ary pressures mounted.

you can afford. My new

Miss Abrahamsen,
Lions Scholarship
Winner, Reports
Seward's popular Beverly Ab
rahamsen made her first report
to the Lions Club this week.
She is in Hendricks Hall, Uni
versity of Oregon, winner of
this year’s Lions Club scholar
ship.
Her letter is informal, address
ed, “Dear Lions.” Her “duck
ling councelor,” an upper class
man who is detailed to introduce
freshmen to campus activities,
has been steering her around.
Beverly is registered in six
subjects on a schedule that
leaves her Tuesdays and Satur
days without classes, so she has
taken a job with the University
press.
Out of 300 girls taking the
physical examination one day,
Beverly was told that she had
the best posture. “I don't sup
pose you sent me here though
for my posture,” says Bev, so
she tells about a new scholar
ship offered to students from
Alaska and Hawaii. It amounts
to 3270, which in addition to
the Lions scholarship would see

Rubber rivets? Not exactly, says Miss Evelyn McClintock of Akron, O.
But rivets for brake linings, as used in World War II, are out. Instead
Miss McClintock demonstrates a new type of adhesive called Plastiloclc,
developed by the B. F. Goodrich Co. It bonds metal to. metal, and is said
to make the lining last 75% longer than the former riveted type.
her through this first year.
There are 1900 freshmen reg
istering this year at the Univer
sity of Oregon, and it is a very
pleasant prospect, Beverly says.
Intuition is something pos
sessed by women, which tells
them they are right whether
they are or not.
Statistics show that very few
educated people are in the na
tions' prisons. The educated ones
are probably too smart to get
caught.
It has been rumored that one
college bought so many football
players that it had to reduce
the faculty 50 per cent.
