Seeks Salmon Pictures
When Miles Brandon of Billing
ham returned to Washington ear
lier this month to rejoin the Cap
itol Police force, on which he
serves under a patronage appoint
ment by Sen. Gruening, he re
ported to the senator that some of
the salmon he had caught while
fishing in Bristol Bay in July
showed evidences of old net bums
and scars. Miles, like other Bristol
Bay fishermen, caught few salmon
this year, and he said burns occur
when fish temporarily entangled
in tightly woven nets manage to
escape.
The senator asked Brandon to
report his findings to the Office
of Emergency Planning and to the
Department of State. Miles later
reported that a State Department
representative nad expressed sur
prise to learn of the net burns
and scars on salmon and said it
would be helpful if the fisherman's
report could be documented with
photographs.
Sen. Gruening said he hoped
that fishermen or others having
photographic evidence of this kind
would send it to him in Washing
ton, D.C., at 4106 New Senate
Office Building. The senator said
he would forward the photographs
to the State Department.

Wealth of Churches Embarrassing
SIDNEY, Australia W — A Pres
byterian minister, back from two
months in the United States, says
he found the wealth of American
churches embarrassing.
"American ministers agreed with
me and are concerned with the
difficulty of keeping spiritual
values in sight above monetary
values,” said the Rev. Gordon.
The clergyman said some
churches he visited in the United
States had incomes ranging from
$200,000 to $600,000.

“The Big Blast"1
By Rev. Bob Leigh!
Occasionally we have presented
for the public and members of our
church a motion picture of a reli
gious nature. I wish to make this
announcement to all our friends
in Nome, that in presenting these
various films at the Bible Baptist
Church, we are in no way, nor
have any intentions of using them
as a substitute in place of a regulnr
service, consisting of congregation
al singing, special selections and
the preaching of the gospel.
‘‘The Big Blast,” as well as other
films in the past, and those that
are planned in the future, are al
ways presented as a “special” pre
sentation of the gospel of Jesus
Christ. These films are always in
“addition” to regularly scheduled
and planned services. I feel that
Audio Visual Aids in presenting
the truth of God’s word are a great
asset to Christian work in this
modem age of power and space
travel and world agitation and con
flict, and while many fine Christian
films have been produced by vari
ous film studios and Christian film
companies, they are still to be con
sidered, I feel, as secondary, to the
actual preaching and teaching of
the Bible. However, many fine
soun films have been used of God
to stir the hearts of millions of
people in these last 20 years.
The film, “The Big Blast” is
one of the latest Christian films,
and the story is certainly one most
different from all the rest. Good,
scriptual films I feel, make a most
lasting impression. “The Big Blast”
offers a new, outlook, fresh pre
sentation, and heretofore an un
thought of challenge to every in
dividual.
“The Big Blast” features actors,
Gregory Loren and Richard Jef
I feries. There is no admission charge
j for this film, and no offerings
taken for its sponsor. The public
is cordially invited, but come early
to get a seat. The service begins
at 7. See ad in this issue of the
Nugget.
“I always wished I could do
something with my hands. Never
could.” — Joe Louis, ex - boxing
champ.
