NOME HAS A 50-MILER
John Trent, of FAA, has an
nounced that he will be leaving
for Solomon on foot early Sunday
morning to make the 50-mile hike
which is so popular throughout the
states.
Mr. Trent is a good walker,
having done mountain climbing
and also was one of the winners
in the 4th of July annual Seward
Marathon.
Although a recent resident, he
feels it is a challenge and wants
Nome to have a participant just
like Fairbanks and Anchorage in
this popular keep-fit project.
