Work Progressing on
Pians for AHA Housing
Although construction of the 25
homes the Alaska Housing Au
thority will build in Palmer this i
season probably cannot begin be-j
fore Aug. 1, preliminary work is j
being completed as rapidly as \
possible, E. Glen Wilder, execu- J
tive director, said this week, j
Earlier this year, Mr. Wilder had
hoped the construction could be \
started in July.
Preliminary sketches are now
being drawn, the housing head
said. As soon as they are finished j
by the architects, they will be
presented to the Federal Housing !
Administration for approval.
Ed Crittenden, architect, met
Thursday with the board of the j
Alaska Rural Rehabilitation Cor
poration to iron out the utilities
problems of the selected site.
AHA is negotiating with the
ARRC for the construction of the
utilities, the cost of which will
then be included in the price of
the land.
Mr. Wilder said he anticipated j
no delay would arise from these
negotiations. He still expects
some of the houses to be ready
for occupancy by Christmas.
NOTICE
THE Alaska Agricultural Experi- j
ment Station will sell surplus
and worn farm equipment at

July 8, beginning at 1:00 P.M., !

Temperature Reaches
77 Twice This Month
Lasl Sunday's temperatures
reached near-tropical propor
tions in the Matanuska Valley
with a high of 77 degrees. The
minimum recorded that day
was only 52 degrees.
Although the thermometer
climbed persistently during
most of the daytime hours, it
failed to set a new high for the
year. A reading of 77 degrees
also was recorded on June 5
of this year.
Just for the sake of variety,
and to prove that summer is
something on the calendar
rather than anything out of
doors in Alaska, the mercury
fell to a minimum of 36 de
grees on June 21, the first day
of summer. The daytime high
on June 21 was 63 degrees.
