rTVTL DEFENSE
BENEFIT SATURDAY
The Civil Defense benefit
! dance at the high school on Sat
urday night will be a gay affair
with all of Nome helping to fin*
. a nee th e purchase of new broad
| easting eou'pment for the local
; defense station.
; When it became necessary on
j short notice to establish defense
headquarters with some means
j of immediate communication
! with the entire community, such
pieces of wireless equipment as
were avai’able in town were as
sembled and a temporary broad
casting outfit was soon sending
messages and furnishing sustain
ing musical programs to the peo
ole of Nome. The temporary in
stallation has been petted along
and kept going by constant tin
kering and replacements at the
expense of the individuals who
were willing to work at it. The
average listener has probably
supposed that a first-class trans
mitter has been in use, but those
aro-und defense headquarters
know' the heavy handicaps un
der w'hich all broadcasts have
been made.
It is planned to purchase a new
transmitter which will make pos
sib’e the release of good musical
programs as well as of important
information on defense measur
es. These programs will reach
outlying districts which are con
nected with Nome by telephone
wires, but will not penetrate into
the ether far enough to consti
tute a danger.
Inasmuch as the Civil Defense
has no funds with which to carry
on its work the Home Arts Club
is sponsoring the dance Saturday
night to raise ‘.he money for this
equipment. Music by Johnson
and Milh pa ugh will insure
smooth dancing. Buy your tick
ets early and make .your dates.
It will be a big night.
DEMOCRATS ATTENTION
An important meeting of the
Nome Democratic Club will be
held in City Hall on Friday,
January 30th, at 9 o’clock p. m.
