HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL
A FINANCIAL SUCCESS
The annual Halloween Carni
val sponsored by the Student
Council was a huge success this
year with gross proceeds totaling
$1,487.70. Alaska’s favorite game
led the concessions by taking in
$263 and the Big fish pond was
second with $129.50. The lunch
room followed with $122.95.
The proceeds will remain in the
Student Council general fund
this year and will be used for dif
ferent organizations, uniforms,
activities and emergency fund.
The halls of the Palmer School
were crowded with young and old
when the doors opened at 7:00 p
m. but by 10:00 p.m. the crowd
as well as the concessions, was
pretty well played out—So the
kiddies went home to dream
about witches and goblins while
the older folks stayed to dance tc
the music of Schaefer’s Orches
tra.
Two door prizes were drawn at
12:30. First prize, a bronze horse
and clock, was won by Max Hods
don and the second prize, a plush
^oat, was won by Bob Walker.
Proceeds of the dance totaled
$263, which is included in the to
tal proceeds of the Carnival.
The Butte Homemakers club
will hold its regular meeting or
Monday, November 5 at the home
^of Mrs. I. M. Sandvik.
Kiwanians to Maik
Annual Charter Night
With Dinner and Dance
i
Palmer Kiwanians will enter
tain their wives and a few friends'
Saturday night. November 3. with
a charter night dinner and dance
at the new Moose Hall.
The event is an annual affair
and commemorates the granting
of a charter to the Palmer Ki
wanis Club. Women of the Moose
will serve the meal. The dinner
will be followed by an entertain
ing program, and the evening will
be concluded with dancing.
Ticket chairman Elmer LeDue
> reported Monday that tickets
were moving rapidly. There was
, a good chance that some late-com
),ing Kiwanians would be unable
j to get reservations for the limited
! plates.
At the regular Monday Kiwanis
. meeting, President Hugh Johnson
appointed Marvin Slaughter to
the membership committee for
. the remainder of the year.
Incorporation Recommended
, Following a report by Jim Hur
ley regarding the desirability of
such a move, the members pres
; ent voted unanimously for incor
poration of the Palmer Kiwanis
Club. The advantages would be
that members would be liable
only to the limit of the club’s as
sets in case of a damage suit.
Otherwise, Hurley pointed out,
every member would be liable for
possible damages up to the limit
of his assets. The final vote on
incorporation will be taken at the
annual meeting which will occur
on November 19.
Nomination blanks for Kiwanis
officers for 1952 have been dis
tributed, according to President
Johnson. These should be re
turned at once to enable tallying
by the nominations committee.
The Minstrel Show committee
has begun planning for this an
nual mid-winter affair. Chairman
H. J. Hodgson announced an im
portant meeting to be held in his
office at the local Experiment
1 Station this Friday night, Novem
ber 2, at 8 p.m.
Guests at the luncheon meeting
included Clifford Marcus, in
charge of the Anchorage office
! of the Soil Conservation Service
and formerly of Palmer; Howard
Andreson, of the Bureau of Rec
lamation Eklutna Project; and
' Robert Secrist, Kiwanian from
Juneau and also representing the1
Juneau office of the Bureau of
Reclamation.
Speaker of the Day
Dr. George Whetstone, of the
U. S. Geological Survey, dis
, cussed the work of the Survey in
Alaska with special reference to
problems in this area The bar
rage of questions following his
talk testified to the interest in
his subject.
Jack Maze and President John
son are planning a different kind
of program for next Monday, but
they wouldn’t expand on the sub
ject.
The Altar and Rosary Society
of St. Michael’s Church will hold
its next meeting at the home of
Mrs. Neal Wright at eight o’clock
Tuesday, November 6. New of
ficers will take over their duties
at this meeting and all women of
