Council Turns
Down Plan for
Reduced Water
And Sewer Project
The Nome City Council met
Wednesday in a joint session with
the Nome Planning Commission to
discuss an unofficial proposal from
a Washington, D.C., source that
Nome might get Accelerated Pub
lic Works funds if the amount of
the application was substantially
reduced.
Many factors were considered
by the members of the two civic
groups which voiced an unanimous
opinion that Nome could not ac
cept any such proposal for many
reasons.
Among the reasons voiced were
that Nome has already put out
too much money to jeopardize the
project as a whole; that the people
from all over the community voted
whole-heartedly in favor of the
project although many of them
knew that the new modern serv
ice would not reach them, but
they voted in favor anyway so that
the school at least could be sani
tary for the children.
The consensus of ponion was that
the segment of the community
which would be served, should the
city be offered about one-third of
the amount in the application
in which was $840,000 there would
not be sufficient revenue to main
tain the small part of town served
or would be any hope for expan
sion of the service.
It was expressed that the amount
suggested for the Nome project
would probably only take care of
the sewage and utilidors. Without
water the project would and could
not function as many homes do
not have pressure systems.
Mayor Don Hoover, by vote of
the Council, was requested to con
vey the opinion of the Council
and Planning Commission to
HHFA while in Seattle this week
and try and find out why North
western Alaska is offered only
the crumbs from the Accelerated
Public Works fund when their
application has been in and ready
for a long time.
Drilling is now in progress for
the well and foundation of the
new power plant on the Sandspit
with the work being done by
Chuck Reader. George Silides, en
gineering from Fairbanks, is over
seeing the job, stated Manager
Howard Crinklaw.

Lt. Col. John Powers,
NASA Spokesman for
Astronauts, Is Losing Job
WASHINGTON Ufi — Air Force
Lt. Col. John Powers, controversial
spokesman for the U.S. astronauts,
is losing his job. »
This was confirmed today by a
source within the National Aero
nautics and Space Adiminstration.
The source said that while
Powers will remain at the Manned
Space Flight Center at Houston,
Tex., he “will not be in public
affairs.”
What Powers’ new job will be,
the source would not say. Powers
is on loan to NASA from the Air
Force and is eligible for retire
ment in February after 20 years
of duty, including World War II
and Korea.
An official NASA spokesman
had no comment on the report
other than to say, “We generally
agreed with what Powers said
yesterday. I expect an announce
ment will be made next week.”
Powers was in Washington
Thursday to meet with NASA ad
ministrator Hugh Dryden.
Afterwards, Powers commented,
“I am sure my role is going to
change.”
