PRICE OF BEER EDGES
UPWARD IN KETCHIKAN
KETCHIKAN W — The price of
beer is edging up in Ketchikan al
though the raises thus far are
spotty. One spokesman said the
price increase to 60 cents a can or
bottle from 50 cents was caused
by the latest wage increase for
bartenders.
The bartenders received a $2
p>er shift increase and also addi
tional health and welfare benefits.
The spokesman said he believed
the price increases would be gen
eral soon.
It was the first price increase
on beer in three years, the spokes
man said.
Even at 60 cents the price re
mained 15 cent below that of a like
drink on the new Alaska ferries.
Ministerial Assn. Meets
At its monthly meeting the
Nome Ministerial Assn, welcomed
Gordon Dufseth, who was the con
tractor for Our Savior’s Lutheran
Church. Among the items of busi
ness discussed, a unanimous word
of thanks is to be expressed to all
clubs and groups who have helped
in keeping Church night open;
Wednesday nights when most of
the church groups have meetings.
Joe Garcia of Melbourne, Aus
tralia, once ate 480 oysters in 60
minutes. Georges Grogniet of Bel
gium in 1956 ate 44 boiled eggs in
30 minutes. And the biggest meat
eater, Johann Ketzler of Germany,
in 1880 ate a whole roast ox—but
it took him 42 days.

Pope John’s Health
Causes Concern in Vatican
VATICAN CITY 1^—The health
of Pope John XXIII continues to
cause concern at the Vatican.
The worry was heightened Wed
nesday with unconfirmed reports
that he had a brief relapse of his
serious illness of last November,
but had quickly recovered.
The Baltimore Sun said yester
day, “it is generally accepted in
Vatican circles that the Pope has
cancer, that he knows it, and that
he does not expect to live a long
time. Reportedly the malignancy
involves the stomach.”
In the past, the Pontiff’s doctor
has denied the Pope has cancer.
It was learned that his doctor,
Prof. Antonio Gasbarrini, who
lives in Bologna, came to Rome
Wednesday night. Vatican sources
said he was on a regularly sched
uled visit to the Pope and had not
been summoned on an emergency
basis.

Revenge . . .
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. UP> — Gus
Brady and Henry Retzloff Jr. got
their revenge on modern art this
week.
Two years ago, Brady said, he
“worked myself to death for about
three months” painting an entry
for the Arkansas regional art show
supposed to contain representa
tional pictures of Arkansas scenes.
A work of modem art won it.
This year Brady teamed up with
Retzloff—they are commercial ar
tists who work together—and en
tered a piece called, perhaps with
logic, ’’Experimentation into the
Realm of Nocturnal Schizophrenic
Endeavors.”
The “art” was done at night,
without any lights, on a 4x6-foot
piece of wall board.
The two stood the board on an
outside wall, placed a 10-foot lad
der in front of it and started
“painting.” Brady backed off and
threw paint at the board. Retzloff
brushed.
The only real endeavor in the
piece came in the selection of
colors.
“We got purple for depth, orange
for bright, and pink,” Brady said.
The pink turned out biege on the
panel.
They used oil-base and water
base paint and when they tired of
throwing paint, they used sand.
Then they doused the whole thing
with a bucket of water. It took
them 30 minutes.
To observe their handiwork, the
two drove a car behind the build
ing where the panel was, and turn
ed its headlights on the piece.
“We got some interesting ef
fects,” Brady said. “We liked it.”
The work, among 220 entries,
was placed in the top 12, got an
honorable mention. First prize
went to another painting—also an
abstraction.
