News Notes
By Jan* Brown*
Four new members were in
itiated into Igloo 31 and Auxil
iary 11, Pioneers of Alaska
Monday evening at the regular
meeting, Mr. and Mrs. George
Gore and Mr. Fred Martin of
Wasilla, Charles Wilson of
Palmer and Jack Bixler of An
chorage.
We call the Bruce Grahams
lucky. They have won the prize
the last two meetings.
Plans were made for the first
birthday of Igloo 31 Sunday.
March 10, at the Moose Hall.
The hall will be open from
noon on and the buffet dinner
will be served at 2 p.m. All Ig
loo and Auxiliary members are
expected to attend if at all pos
sible. Guests are expected from
Anchorage, Seward and pos
sibly Fairbanks.
Wednesday evening. March
20. there will be a basketball
game at the High school gym in
Wasilla between the students of
Willow and the Wasilla stu
dents. Most of the boys play
ing have been members of the
Warrior squad this year. This
has become an annual game
and a good one is assured. Last
vear the Wasilla group won by j
19 points so this year the Wil- j
low students are out to avenge
that defeat. There will be a j
preliminary game starting at
7:30 p.m. with the main game'
starting at 8:30 p.m. Season
tickets are good for this game.
Dick Warsing has been vis
iting his family and friends in
Wasilla this past week-end.
Dick is employed at Clear. .
Shouldn't have to water- the
gardens this summer. Somp of
us are storing this rain in base
ments and others right in the
living room. Ben Cottle was
calling for help this week due
to a stubborn culvert and looks
like John Vickaryous may
move his house over on the
next lot. Hip boots or bathing
suits would help.
The Palmer junior high bas
ketball team took the cham
pionship this year at the tour
ney in Wasilla in a close game
Saturday night against Wasilla
junior high. The catholic jun
ior high team won the sports
manship trophy. All trophies
were presented following the
final game Saturday evening.

GOVERNOR’S BILL WOULD PROVIDE FOR FOREST
MANAGEMENT, PROTECTION BUILDING AT BIG LAKE
A forest management and
protection building would be j
constructed at Big Lake and
an equipment storage and car
penter shop would be erected
in Anchorage under a bill sub
mitted to the Alaska Legisla
ture by Gov. William A. Egan.
The measure asks supple
mental appropriation of $77,
500 to match comparable funds
available from the Federal Ac
celerated Public Works pro
gram.
Gov. Egan described the two
facilities as high priority pro
jects which probably would
have appeared in the Depart
ment of Natural Resources;
budget request for the fiscal:
year beginning this July 1 ex- j
-r *-x-**********--*****-x-**-*->
cept for the pendency of the
APW application.
He said the Big Lake fores
try headquarters building is an
office, warehouse for the man
agement and fire protection
equipment and a dwelling for
the district forester's family
which will contribute to the
success of a mill for process
ing of birch stands. Operation
of the mill will be financed
through a recent Area Rede
velopment program loan. Cost
of the Big Lake facility, in
cluding Federal funds, will be
$95,000.
The Governor said construc
tion of the Anchorage equip
ment storage and carpenter
shop building will save $12,000
