EADIE RANDALL, Prop.
t Penn’s Hardware.
He began his business, then
located between the Ace of
Clubs and the Bear Den, in
1956 while still employed at
Wildwood Station as a heat
and power maintenance man.
Penn left the government
position in May of 1960 to de
vote fulltime to his growing
business. Since then he has ex
panded once, and plans to have
a future section built on his
new building this summer.
“When I first started,” Penn
wryly remarked, “I went to the
bank. They told me to see the
Salvation Army as a possible
backer.” But he couldn’t have
done all of it completely alone,
he admitted. Bettie Lande, who
started working for Penn in
1958, has been one of his main
supporters.
Penn came to Soldotna in
1949 and holds the distinction
of having been the first man on
the job digging test holes in the
spring of 1951 for Wildwood.
Before coming to Alaska he
attended Panhandle Agricul
tural and Mechanical College
in Oklahoma. He spent three
years in the submarine service
during World War II prior to
his college work.
Also helping Penn with his
expanded business is Bill Card
well.
New York City’s telephone
books contain about two and
one-half million listings.
