Oberman Suggests
Strap Iron Drive
For Kiwanis Club
Dr. Ted Oberman. chairman ol
the Juneau Kiwanis Club prograrr
committee, tossed out a challenge
to the membership at a regulai
meeting at the Baranof Hotel
this noon.
"What this club needs, "Ob
erman declared. "Is project of
long range scope that will tie
the club together and also pro
duce funds to carry on other
projects requiring the expendi
ture of funds.”
He then suggested a scrap iron
drive as a project, pointing to the
success of the Seattle Chamber
of Commerce drive which netted
2,000 tons of old mining equip
ment from Nome.
"If it can be shipped from
Nome at a profit, there Is no
reason why we can’t do it here,”
Oberman insisted. "If we don't
get in the act here, some other
outfit is going to.”
"We might realize $500 or $2,000
from such a project," he said,
and urged that the members give
it some thought.
Necessary Steps
He outlined some of the steps
necessary, such as contacting pos
sible buyers, learning current pri
ces for scrap, transportation costs,
getting trucks for hauling, a lot
for storage, members to locate
sources of scrap and work teams
to load trucks. "The time is op
portune now while there is a de
mand for the scrap," Oberman
said.
It was Informally decided to in
vestigate the possibilities of such
a project.
Kids Day
Kenneth Morgan, chairman of
the youth services committee, rer
minded the club that National
Kid’s Day would be Sept. 22 and
asked for suggestions for an act
ivity that would entertain Juneau
children and at the same time
raise funds for the club’s project
of caring for under privileged
children.
Frank Ostrander of Seattle was
a visiting Kiwanian and * Steve
Smith, chief underwriter for the
Federal Housing Administration
here, was a guest.
Henry Leege will be program
chairman for next week.
