the meeting to order and Mrs.
George Denison served as secre
tary pro tern. A motion was un
animously passed for suspension
of rules to provide for election
of a new chairman and that, as
this was the sole business, the
meeting was in order.
Nominations were closed after
Schmidt was suggested for chair
man. He was elected by a vote
of 59 out of the 61 ballots cast.
Nominations for vice chairman
were Wallace Creary and Ray
Girves, with Creary winning 35
votes to 26 for Girves. I*irs. Lan
cashire, the only nominee for se
cretary, received 59 votes.
Minutes of the previous meet
ing were revised to read:
“At the January 3 meeting,
when it was moved and seconded
to take a vote of confidence re
garding the precinct chairman,
Mrs. Edelman requested the
chairman to commit himself to
call a meeting within two weeks
to elect a new chairman if he lost
the vote of confidence.”
This was the revision to the
passage declared as erroneously
recorded in the minutes and for
which a correction was requested.
The wording of the passage, some
of those attending the meeting
say, was the bombshell which
blew the meeting apart. Others
say the walkout was instigated
when it was determined that
there was not a two-thirds vote
majority present to force the re
call of the precinct officer.
Mullen still stands upon his
rights as an elected officer to
remain in office—to be recalled
only by voters who put him in of
fice—in following American de
mocratic procedures-—and not to
be forced from office by the
“bossism” of another elected of
ficer.
Action of the Southcentral Dis
trict Committee in suspending
Frank Mullen as precinct chair
man at Soldotna was affirmed at

Dog Race
Goal Set
At $2500
Definite plans are in the mak
ing for the second annual Alaska
State Championship Sled Dog
Races to be sponsored jointly by
Soldotna and Kenai and to be run
on alternate days between the
two towns on March 2-3.
An active fund raising drive is
underway and Kenai reports $600
already pledged of which $200
has been collected.
“We are shooting for a goal of
$2,500 for this year’s purse,” Tom
Hurd and Jack Thompson, both of
Soldotna, said Thursday follow
ing a joint meeting of the dog
racing committee and representa
tives of the Kenai and Soldotna
Chambers of Commerce. The
combined meeting held at the Ke
nai Bowl was the forerunner of
similar weekly sessions of the
planning group.
Last year the goal for the
purse was $2,000, which was
over-subscribed. Mushers ending
the two-day event split $2,200 in
prize money.
Mushers this year are being as
sured the purse will be at least
$2,000 and it is hoped that a re
sponse as good as that of last
year will result in collections
reaching the $2,500 goal.
Certain basic ground rules in
stituted last year in connection
with the first annual event were
reaffirmed Thursday by the plan
ning group. These primarily con
firmed that the stopping and fin
ishing point is to alternate from
one community to the next annu
ally and that which ever com
munity the races end in will hold
the mushers banquet that year
This year’s races will originate
Democratic Central Committee.
Reason for the action was termed
as “violation of his party re
sponsibilities.” Action of the
state committee was announced
by Frank Peratrovich, state cen
tral committee chairman.
in Kenai on Saturday, March 2,
and the race will be run over the
16-mile trail beside the highway
to Soldotna. The following day,
the dogs will start out in Soldot
na and race back to Kenai. Kenai,
as finishing point, will host the
banquet. This is a reversal of last
year’s schedule when Soldotna
was host.
