Philleo Engineering Agrees
To Modify Water and Sewage
Project Plans For $600
A special meeting of the City
Council was called on Wednesday
evening to meet with the Nome
Planning Commission and Edgar
Philleo, of Philleo Engineering
Co. of Fairbanks to discuss the
water and sewage project.
An application was completed
recently and sent to Region 6 —
Housing & Home Agency in Seat
tle, who are favorably inclined
and interested, however, they
have recommended that the proj
ect be trimmed down to come
within a loan of not more than
$1,200,000. As this had to be done
by a registered engineer, Philleo
Engineering was contacted since
they made the original plans in
1957.
For a sum not to exceed $600,
Philleo agreed to make the neces
sary changes to the project and
take them to Seattle where he
will confer with the agency mak
ing the loan. If approved, it is
hoped that the project can be
placed before the voters early this
spring.
Gordon Osborne, manager of
the Kotzebue branch of the Miners
& Merchants Bank is a visitor
here on business and is scheduled
to toe transferred to Barrow to
open the new branch in the near
future.

Nome Beta
Sigma Phi Landed
Beta Sigma Phi, social and
cultural sorority with 1500,000 ac
tive members in 7,000 chapters,
established in 19 countries of the
Free World, has just presented
from headquarters in Kansas City,
Mo., the complete story of three
outstanding efforts. Alaska Kappa
Chapter, Nome, has been recog
nized for its participation.
The story of three great funds
—the endowment fund for the
benefit of humanity; the loan fund
to help their own members in
time of emergency; and the ex
emplar fund to spread literacy to
the unlearned in India—is pre
sented in full in the organization’s
current issue of the Torch of
Beta Sigma Phi.
During the past year alone, the
endowment fund has contributed
to Girlstown — $14,400; Children’s
Cancer Research Foundation —
$10,000; five annual scholarships
in Canada of $1,000 each; Nation
al Cystic Fibrosis Research —
$10,000; and Camp Kokosing for
rehabilitation of crippled and
handicapped children — $5,000.
The loan fund, to help their own,
has granted over $15,000 in in
terest-free loans to members to
meet the emergencys expenses of
illness or accident. The exemplar
fund has brought the rudiments
of reading and writing to India
through Literacy Village, which
was founded by an American
missionary.
Every Beta Sigma Phi accepts
as her responsibility the right to
be useful to her home and family,
and to the world. She is dedicated i
to serving all that is good, all
j that is true, all that is beautiful.
In this city, Kappa Chapter was
established for the friendship and
cultural development of the mem
bers. The chapter meets twice a
month for their own cultural pro
gram meetings; their Easter Fash
I ion Show are known and enjoyed
by many in the community. The
president here is Bev Blanning.
