(I. of Alaska
Expands Summer
School Courses

ben, director, announces.
The summer session this year
will have a faculty of 12 with four
visiting lecturers.
A total of 31 subjects in 10 de
partments will be offered.
“The success of our summer
session last year and requests for
information on the curriculum
for this year leads us to believe
that we may look forward to an
outstandingly successful summer
school in 1951,” Dean Cashen
said.
“An innovation this year is that
teachers and college students
working for advanced degrees
may obtain approved credits to
ward master’s and doctor’s de
grees. The establishment of post
graduate studies on the campus
is in line with the expressed poli
cy of the regents and the admin
istration to make the university
of maximum value to all Alas
kans,” Cashen explained.

Another innovation for summer
school this year is that hotel ac
comodations will be offered in
the dormitories. For those who
wish hotel accomodations, which
means bedding, sheets, and tow
els supplied, the charge will be
$53.75 for single rooms and
$42.50 for double rooms for the
six week session. Those supply
ing their own bedding and towels

Public Land Classification
The Interior Department has
asked Congress to enact legisla
tion providing for the classifica
tion of public lands in Alaska.
The suggested legislation pro
vides that the secretary of the in
terior may examine and classify
vacant and unreserved public
lands in the Territory for settle
ment under applicable non-min
eral public land laws. It would
also establish a procedure where
by a person may apply for land
for a certain purpose and may
have a preference right for one
year to enter and occupy the land
once it is classified. If the land
has not been classified within 18
months after he has made appli
cation, he would have a prefer
ence right to enter and occupy
the land without waiting for
classification. Locations, entries
and leases under the mining and
mineral leasing laws could be
made without regard to classifi
cation of land.
The terms of the proposed leg
islation would not affect any ex
isting valid rights, would protect
the rights of the Territory of Al
aska in school land reserves,
MOOSE DISRUPTS
TRUETYPE UNES
For two hours and two minutes,
teletype communication from
Fairbanks to Outside was cur
tailed the other day because a
moose tangled his antlers in the
wire a few miles south of Fair
banks. *
When service was interrupted
maintenance men of the Alaska
communication system hurried to
locate the trouble and got a fleet
ing glimpse of the animal, which
extricated itself before they could
get to it. Mr. Moose can tell his
grandchildren about the hazards
of modern life—and ACS men can
tell theirs about the hazards of
the primitive wild.
would reserve to the United
States mineral rights in entered
and patented lands, and would
continue the right of the United
States to issue timber cutting,
right-of-way and other permits.
Mr. and Mrs. John Nutter of
Anchorage, are the parents of a
son, Douglas John, born at the
Valley hospital, May 10.
Twins, a boy and girl, were
born at the Valley hospital to Mr.
and Mrs. James Frey of Palmer.
The little girl died shortly after
birth. John Philip was chosen as
the name for the boy, who
weighed 3 pounds, 12 ounces at
birth. Frey is a prospector min
er.
Lynn O. Hollist, University of
Alaska, was in Palmer for the
rerritorial agricultural conserva
:ion committee meeting. Purpose

for the 1952 program. Here with
lim were Bert Timple and Joe
Lawlor of Tanana Valley.
