Sorry for the late reply, Gerald (also answering Mark Thompson below). I'm accessing the 'net by sponging public places and real life intervened. Contemporary sources typically refer to "Mrs. Roy Peratrovich" if they mention her in a separate context at all. While that should be expected of the era, these sources do not exclusively paint a white-males-dominated view like a modern-day mindset would believe. Both Frank and Roy Peratrovich worked for the territorial government before the passage of the legislation, so they were familiar with the system and vice versa. I'm not intimately familiar with ANB/ANS, as it's more a Southeast thing and I haven't been there in years. Did ANS have significant pull/stature of their own, or was it more like the women's auxiliary of a fraternal organization? Perhaps Ross has the answer to that.

Vivian Stiver was on the Fairbanks city council and twice ran for mayor and lost by extremely close margins. She was also a legislative aide to Tammie Wilson.
