The following named passen
gers are reported to be still mar
ooned at Koyukuk Station, await
in.g transportation to Nome via
plane: Miss Marguerite Lee, Ed.
M. Moore, Curly Boulanger,
John Kinchin, Jimmy Harper, H.
M. Coker, Herb Wackrow, and
Elmer Tveeter. It is also report
ed that the roadhouse has run
out of meat and other staple ar
ticles and that patience has lost
its virtue, among those remain
ing. Several stories, which would
make good reading for Adven
ture Magazines, are being told
by the arrivals, and when one
refers to “Capt. Hawks adventur
es” being shown at the local
theater, they say that it is tame
to what is taking place at Nome’s
suburban roadhouse.
Among a number of other pas
sengers who are awaiting pllane
transportation at Fairbanks, it is
learned, are:
George Waldheim
Jimmy Baldwin
Paul Rasmussen
‘Frank Nordstrom
Mr. Blunkum
It is also reported that tihere
are probably a dozen others at
Fairbanks whose names are not
known, and some 20 or 30 more
enroute on the next sailing from
Seattle, alii of whom are enroute
to Nome and whom will be en
gaged in mining operations.
Adverse weather was again
responsible for the postponement
of the Nome Ski Club’s First An
nual Ski Championships. Three
events are to be run: Slalom,
Downhill and Cross-country.
Afil skiers wtho are interested
in participating should let the
following board members give
them the details. Thomas Givan,
Dave Livingstone, Marvin Jor
dan, Milton Seavey, and Chuck
O'Leary. Spectators are cordially
invited, the only fee being the
transportation costs. The Club
,has their cabin where coffee will
be served gratis, so come on,
you fireside enthusiasts, break
loose. See you Sunday—the time? i
9:30. The place?—Nevada Grill.
