Geological Report
Recently Released
A geological report containing in
formation that may aid in the
search for oil in the Malaspina
district and adjoining area of a
known petroliferous province in
southern Alaska has been releas
ed by the Geological Survey for
public inspection, Acting Secre
tary of the Interior Italph A.
Tudor said recently.
Large oil seepages were dis
covered at two localities in the
foothills of the Malaspina district
in 1953 by a Geological Survey
party that utilized a light plane
equipped with wheels and retract
able skis to reach ice-bound bed
rock areas. Geological structures
that are potentially favorable for
the entrapment of oil were found
in the vicinity of the seepages.
This reconnaissance geologic study
was carried out under the Geo
logical Survey's program to in
vestigate the petroleum possibili
ties of the Gulf of Alaska Tertiary
province, a 300-mile long belt on
Alaska’s south coast in which sed
imentary rocks of Tertiary age
are exposed or are inferred to
underlie coastal lowland areas
covered by ice or alluvium. Fed
eral oil ond gas leases covering
nearly 2 million acres of this pro
vince currently are in effect or
have been applied for.
The Malaspina district includes
a coastal plain of low relief, lying
between Icy Bay and Yakutat Bay,
and bordering rugged foothills of
the St. Elias Mountains. About
twothirds of This unihabited dis
trict is covered by glaciers and the
snow and ice fields tributary to
them. Prior to the 1953 investi
gation the only geological obser
vations available on much of the
interior of the district were those
made 'by expiditions attempting
to climb Mt. Elias between 1836
and 1897.

Book Review Section
by Thomas Lee' Catea
Success Is something that is
usually most Interesting to young
people. I remember many years
ago I was given some advice hy
a family friend who was a suc
cessful vice-president of a big ad
vertising agency. "Find some
body successful,” he told me, “and
imitate him.” Well, I found out
in subsequent years that it wasn't
quite as easy as that. As a matter
of fact, I found that when I had
learned enough about being suc
cessful to put it to work for me,
I was far more interested in other
things.
There has been a lot written on
success and how to achieve it,
but one of the best books on the
subject has just been published.
It is called "Success and What it
Takes” and it offers dozens of
practical keys to steering your
self toward success.
The author, Mrs. F. S. Edsall,
thinks people who aren't happy in
their jobs or careers can do some
thing about it. It doesn't matter
how old you are either, she says.
As a matter of fact, there is one
great advantage in taking a “sec
ond chance” at a job or career
That is, you have a wealth of past
experience to go by.
But how do you look at that
experience in its proper light?
That is the purpose of the book.
Science, industry, the armed forces
and hundreds of specialized guid
dance agencies have established
methods of giving people a closer
look into themselves.
Mrs. Edsall talks about ways of
selfanalysis: of how to get a clear
ly focused view of your character,
your personality, and your talents.
She also tells where and what
type of professional guidance can
be obtained, how much it may cost,
where some can be had free.
"Success and What it Takes”
deals with a serious subject in a
brisk and highly readable fashion.
The author is a mother, teacher
and writer for such magazines as
Ladies’ Home Journal, Charm,
Harper’s and the Saturday Review.
If you want more than you’ve
got, this book is a storehouse of
informative, reliable signposts for
a road to success.
SPECIAL SERVICE OFFER
If you want a copy of “Success
and What it Takes” just send a
check or money order for $3.75
to Readers’ Review Service in care
of this paper. A copy will be sent
to you, postage free and insurance
paid.

Seward Bakery Opens
After 6 Mos. Trouble
It takes a lot to get a good man
or woman down and the Bob Sims
are no exception to this old adage.
Last February first they bought
the Seward Bakery and just two
weeks later suffered a severe set
back; when fire damaged their
building and smoked up the rest
of it.
This week on Satudray after six
months of redecorating and re
building the Sims’ have extended
an invitation to their many frtends
and customers to come in and have
a cup of coffee and a donut or two
as their guests.
Through the long weeks of in
convience we never once heard
anyone complain, remarked Mrs.
Sims, and we really appreciate
the publics patience.
