CONSTRUCTION
ENGINEER ARRIVES
James Teeters, construction en
gineer, has arrived in Palmer to
take over his post with the Bu
reau of Reclamation. He former
ly spent several years on the Boy
s£n Dam project in Wyoming, and
before that was at Billings, Mon
tana. Teeters and his wife are
primarily concerned now with
finding a place to live.
Proceeds From
Firemen’s Ball
To Pay For Truck
Critical matter of fire protec
tion for the Palmer area will have
all sirens wide open for the Fire
men’s Ball May 5, in the school
gymnasium.
Proceeds will apply on the pur
chase of the new—and third—
fire truck, which still is manned
by strictly volunteer help from
the Fire Association.
It operates like this: Fire! Phone
the alarm. The siren on the thea
tre entrance blows. Volunteers
rush fast. They man the trucks.
And if it is possible within the
limits of human endurance, in
genuity and water facilities, the
fire is battled. But with former
volunteer fire fighters fast gone
into military service, more are
urgently needed. Also fire en
gines cost money—hence the ben
efit ball.
In the matter of equipment, the
third truck will give a maximum
of fire-battling facilities. But
there’s always a budget to meet
arid the Firemen’s ball has that
as its goal.
The Kiwanis Club has set up a
committee to work as co-sponsors j
with the Fire Assn, on plans.
Committee members are:
Kiwanis Club: Dr. F. R. Sims,
A. J. DeJulio, Chet Sandvik, Bob
Johns, Joe Loyer. Firemen’s Assn.
A. V. Hagen, Ray Lancaster, M.
Mitchell, Month Sherman, Bill
Smith.
Turn On the Siren
Features for the Firemen’s ball
so far are under a smoke screen.
Anyway, the committees promise
it will be at least a 3-alarm at
traction.
The program will be ‘‘blazing
hot,” they promise.
And seriously they remind that
everyone who helps stage the
Firemen’s ball, or who buys a
ticket to it, is adding that much
percentage to the fire-protection
of his property.
