Ann Chambers Is
Candidate for Miss
Alaska Pageant
By David Money
The City of Nome hns been com
pletely enchanted by the poise,
charm and mace of it's lovely new
elected Queen of the Midnight Sun
Festival, the new Miss Nome, the
vivacious, 18-year-old brunette,
Ann Chambers.
Sponsored by the Nome Lions
Club, Ann will be a candidate from
Nome for the Miss Alaska contest
held in Anchorage on July 11.
Ann is truly representative of the
highest traditions of Alaskan lore.
Her father is the famous pilot, Fred
Chambers, who flew bush out of
Nome for years, then flew for
Alaska Airlines and currently is a
captain for American Airlines at
Los Angeles. Her mother is Mrs.
Myrtle Johnson, a part Eskimo
Alaskan, who was born and raised
in the fishing village of Golovin,
located some 65 miles east of Nome.
Ann was born in Lewisburg, Pa.,
and has gone to school in Ypsilanti,
Mich., Los Angeles and Nome. She
graduated this -ar as vice presi
dent of the senior class. Her main
activities have been the Girl
Scouts, where she attained the
rank of “Curved Bar” <equal to
Eagle in the Boy Scouts' and past
president of the MYF of the Com
munity Methodist Church.
Besides doing a mean “twist”
her special talent lies in the
Charleston as she sings and dances,
“Somebody Stole My Pal.” She
likes Irish setters, ice skating,
Chinese food, dancing, dramatics,
sewing, Doris Day and Frank Si
natra, prawns, flying, red and blue,
and pennants from all the places
where she has lived.
Miss Chambers plans to enter the
University of Alaska this fall and
maior in education. Working with
children gives he great pleasure;
and she feels that she can make a
personal contribution to Alaska’s
educational program.
The measurements of this charm
ing Miss Alaska candidate are an
impressive 35-34-35.
After the Miss Alaska contest
she will attend the Century 21
Fair. This was made possible by
the Nome Chamber of Commerce.
Laura Wright, well known parka
maker of Fairbanks, passed through
Nome Saturday enroute to Bear

family mining property.
