Review Vocational
School Status at
Chamber Meeting
r
The present status of the Nome
Vocational School was explained
tins week in a letter to Sen. Pearse
Walsh from Leonard Lowell. Di
rector of the Division of Buildings.
Dept, of Public Works, and was
read at the Chamber meeting on
Monday.
The Department of Education
lias reviewed the preliminary plans
prepared by Olsen and Sands, de
signing architect for the Division of
Buildings.
Ordinarily, stated the letter, it
would take a minimum of six
months to complete a design for a
$1,500,000 school facility. The Vo
cational School has been put on a
crash basis and the architect has
been given only four months to
submit his final working drawings
for approval. One month has been
used for the preliminary draw
ings, leaving three additional
months for the final drawings on
the job. Mr. Lowell, compared the
job to the Nome Armory, a proj
ect of approximately one-third the
size, which he stated required
three months for the final design
and 19 months to construct.
If the architect makes his sched
ule. he will submit final drawings
and specifications to the Division
of Buldings by Oct. 15. By Nov.
15 it should be possible to get ap
proval of the various state agen
cies which must pass on the final
plans and the Housing and Home
Finance Agency. This would per
mit advertising of bids and a bid
award sometime this winter in
time for the forthcoming season,
assuming arrangements concern
ing dormitories and boarding fa
cilities have been made with ap
propriate agencies by that time.

of his first acts, if elected gov

delighted that the U.S. Senate had
killed the Kennedy administration

ity program. According to Pollock,

would have resulted in unwarrant
ed increases in Alaskan workers
federal taxes in comparison to the
possible future benefits.
