work were presented to employees
of the Alaska Road Commission by

conference of ARC District Engin
eers.
An award for meritorious service
to Frank Nash, retired District

oi the Commission in the Fair
banks distrist, was presented to
Kenneth Goodsen, present District
Engineer at Fairbanks, for Mr.
Nash. A silver medal and a life

of the United States was also
awarded Mr. Nash in recognition
of the years of his service and the
excellence of performance of his
work fcr the Commission. The mer
itorious service award is signed
by Oscar Chapman, Secretary o'
the Department of the Interior.
Nash retired last year after more
than 30 years service with the Road
Commission.
Second Year Winner
For the second time in the past
two years the Anchorage district
won the ARC Safety Award. The
rccident incidents were slightly low
er in 1949 than in the previous
year and the race for the Safety
Award was close between the three
large districts, Anchorage, Fair
banks and Valdez, the Commission'
er announced.
Col. Noyes pointed out that an
accident which was practically un
avoidable and for which no per- J
sons could be held accountable I
early last season in the Nome J
district was the reason for a high- 1
er rate of accident occurrance be
ing shown in that district.
The Safety Award plaque and j
pennant were presented to Thor j
Rivenes, District Engineer at An- j
chorage. Averages in accident oc- i
curances for the season were: An- j
chorage, 21.64; Fairbanks 23.72; i
Valdez, 23.90; Nome, 48.04; Ju-!
neau-Haines, 8.18. The latter two
districts require considerably less
id work than the other three |
,.ud aie not included in the contest j
for salety awards.
Letters of commendation for per
formance of work were presented
to Alaska Road Commission em
ployees whose posts were not in
line for promotions or other types
of recognition but whose work was
considered particularly worthy.
Those receiving letters of com
mendation were as follows: Juneau

Mrs. Helen Jewett, Mrs. Elizabeth
Nordling, Miss Lois Smith, Miss
Jennie Hartlman: Haines—Fred

Col. Noyes said that the day
ret aside for presenting awards of
achievement to employees of the
Alaska Road Commission was al
ways an outstanding day for him.
"I am tremendously proud of the
Alaska Road Commission and all
the people in it," he declared.
Photographs of the presentations
were made by J. Malcolm Greany,
local photographer.

MAYBE GLOBE
TROTTERS TO
BE HERE SAT.
The Harlem Globetrotters arrived
in Juneau oi; Alaska Coastal Air
ways this forenoon after an over
night delay in Petersburg due to
weather. They were scheduled to
play a basketball game here last
night. The team boarded an An
chorage-bound PNA plane this af
ternoon at 3 o’clock to make its
scheduled game in Anchorage to
night.
Art Hedges, chairman of the
Lions Club basketball committee,
said this afternoon that arrange-j
ments were being made for the
Trotters to play the Juneau All- j
Stars here Saturday night. That is
dependent upon confirmation of
the arrangement by the Chicago of- ;
fice of the team and if the weather
permits their return to Juneau in
time and if they don’t blow away
at some point to the westward.
Anyone who wishes to cash in his
tickets may do so at the Juneau
Young Hardware or Clarence War
field’s drug store, Hedges stated,
but hang on to them until Saturday
unless you need the dough.
