Community Club To Be Relocated
Standard Oil representative
Paul McAndrews met with the
Community Club committee,
consisting of Harry Drew, Tony
McGahan, Carl Seaman, and
Morris Porter, at the Seaman
home on Wednesday, June 28,
to discuss a Standard Oil offer
for relocating the Community
clubhouse. The offer made will

be discussed at a general club
meeting on Wednesday, July 5.
Nikiski? or North Kenai
North Kenai is tired of being
called North Kenai! They want
a name of their own, and vari
ous suggestions are being stud
ied to pick the most desirable
selection. With a refinery and
a school soon to be added to the
existing dock and local busi
nesses, a community will natur
ally develop, and it is felt that
a more individual and
characteristic name is needed.
"Nikiski” and “Foreland” have
been suggested, among others.
Pinochle Prizes
A new pinochle tournament
at the Community Club began
on Thursday, June 29, and will
run for a total of six weeks.
