Thomas Johnson Talks
On Nome Power Needs
Thomas Johnson, president of
the Utilities Board, presented the
critical need of expansion of the
Nome Power & Light Utilities to
the participants of the Arctic Na
tive Brotherhood at their social
meeting last Friday evening, at
which about 70 persons were pre
sent.
Mr. Johnson explained how the
expansion will be done in a thor
oughly businesslike way and paid
for out of the revenue of the busi
ness and will not be reflected in
increased taxes or increased power
rates.
The assembled group, he stated,
headed by Jerome Trigg, indicated
their support in the election to
morrow.
Mr. Johnson also spoke before
the Mother’s Club last week, giving
a full explanation of the need and
how the expansion will materially
aid in the growth of the com
munity.
British Police Battle
Anti-Nuclear Marchers
LONDON UP>—British police bat
tled hordes of chanting, banner
waving anti - nuclear marchers
swarming into London tonight for
a rally. Police arrested 70 demon
strators in the opening clashes.
Some of the marchers sang “I
Love A Lassie” as they marched.
This was a reference to pamphlets
j being distributed containing gov
ernment secrets.
Police helmets were struck off
and several mounted officers were
nearly toppled from their horses
as the marchers dragged at stirrup
leathers.
Running fights developed along
the roadside. One marcher shoved
the shaft of his banner through
the rear wheel of a policeman’s
motorcycle, throwing him to the
ground.
Hundreds of extra police were
moved into the center of the city
as the ban - the - bomb columns
'neared the end of their four-day
Easter trek from the British nuc
lear weapons arsenal at Alder
maston. Estimates of the number
heading for a final rally in Hyde
Park varied from 15,000 to 30,000.
Thousands of pamphlets detail
ing secret government defense
plans in case of nuclear war were
distributed earlier to the demon
strators.
In Magistrate’s Court, Theodore
Okitkon was fined $25 with $20
suspended on a drunk charge.
At Chamber Today . . . \
At a meeting of the Chamber of :
Commerce this noon Mayor Don ;
Hoover, speaking about the power
expansion election tomorrow, said
that the election really stems from
work of the Chamber of Com
merce who two years ago spear
headed the movement for the vo
cational school, which gets under
construction this summer. At the
time the plans were drawn for the
school, the City of Nome assured
the State that Nome would supply
the power. Now the time has come
to have the power and it is “all
part of the package.”
Mrs. Jean Burand was welcomed
back, having been in Arizona
where she did some graduate work
at the University of Arizona.
Maurice Kelliher reported that
several applications and letters of
inquiry have been received re
cently from dentists in answer to
information recently placed in
dental magazines by Dr. R. Fen
stermacher.
Mr. Kelliher also announced that
a US. Navy recruiter is expected
here soon as there are several
young men interested in joining
the Navy.
Thomas Johnson, president of
the Utility Board, asked if anyone
had questions about the bonding
election tomorrow. Mrs. R. Rear
don stated that it was not clear
to her why the U.S. Smelting Co.
plant was not purchased as it
seemed to her to be the less expen
sive course. Due to the lateness of
the noon hour, Frank Couch closed
the meeting and Mrs. Reardon met
with Mr. Johnson, who had the
facts and figures as prepared by
the engineers of Retherford and
Associates.

Kennedy Hitches
A Sailboat Ride
PALM BEACH, Fla. </P> — A
barefooted President Kennedy suc
cumbed on Easter Sunday to the
lure of an unusual sailboat. He
hitched a boatride and soon was
at the tiller for a 15-minute sail,
taking a soaking from salt spray.
The crew rated the World War
II PT-boat skipper a good sailor
and one chuckled over having “or
dered the President of the United
States around.”
Kennedy had taken his family
on an afternoon cruise after they
attended a private mass at the
oceanfront home of his ailing 74
year-old father, former ambassa
dor Joseph P. Kennedy.
It had been a traditional Easter,
with the First Lady photographed
in her pale pink sleeveless sheath
Easter dress and Caroline, 5, and
John Jr., 2, enjoying a fluffy toy
bunny and taking part in egg
rolling.
The President took his daughter
for an Atlantic swim off the
yacht’s ladder, wearing an orange
life jacket.
Then, as the 92-foot presidential
yacht was ending a two - hour
cruise, a speedy twin-hulled, sloop
rigged catamaran swept in and
caught the President’s eye.
He stood up to watch it whip
past on close runs and finally
shouted: “Any chance of getting a
ride?”
A ladder was put over the side
of the Honey Fitz, Kennedy don
! ned a tan windbreaker, took off
his shoes and boarded the sail
boat with his friend and wartime
PT-boat buddy, Undersecretary of
the Navy Paul Fay.
SEND GREETINGS
Mary and Harold Pilcher sent
greetings to their friends from
New Orleans, stating they are
grateful for air conditioning as
the humidity is quite a change
from Nome weather. From New
Orleans they plan on going to
Jackson, Miss., and Chicago.
