To Willie Hoogendom
Rev. Howard DoVore announced
at the Nome Chamber of Com
merce meeting that the sum of
$300 had been turned over to Mrs.
Wm. Hoogendom before she left

ment. The collection of voluntary
gifts was started by the women of
the Methodist Church and Rev.
DeVore stated that any further
contributions should be made di
rectly to the family.

was shot accidently while hunting
and who is partially paralyzed, has
been hospitalized in Anchorage
awaiting for his condition to im
prove sufficiently so that he could
be taken outside to a children’s

Stale Will Build Prison
Lester Bronson called attention
to the members of the Chamber
of Commerce that a state prison
is to be built somewhere in Alaska

where the prisoners “could roam
at will and not go anywhere.”
He stated he would welcome any
other suggestions.

Minnesotans Are
S+ill Undetermined
Who Their Governor Is
ST. PAUL, Minn. UR — Re
counting of votes in the Nov. 6
Minnesota governor race is com
pleted but the matter of a winner
was far from settled Tuesday.
Recounting of ballots in the
state’s 3,785 precincts ended with
95,980 challenged ballots, 51,559 of
them originally counted for Gov.
Elmer L. Andersen, Republican,
but now questioned by the Demo
crats. Republican recount inspectors
disputed 44,421 ballots credited to
Lt. Gov. Karl Rolvaag, Andersen’s
Democratic opponent.
The disputed ballots will be ruled
on by a State Supreme Court
picked panel of three state district
judges after a 10-man bi-partisan
committee has creened them.
There was no indication how
long the disputed ballot investiga
tion will take but choice of a gov
ernor to fill the state’s first four
year term was not expected to be
known for at least a month.
Governor’s terms have been for
two years. Andersen remains in
the office until courts settle on a
winner.
