SCHOOL NOTES
0 Events of the past and coming
week present occurrences of ut
smost interest:
The high school Biology class is
stepping forward again with a
radio production concerning local
as well as factual mat'ers in the
field of tuberculosis. This will be
^ presented on or near March 28*h.
As tuberculosis is extremely
prevalent in this sector, we feel it
ultimately important that it re
ceives due considera on in behalf
of our health and clean-up cam
paign.
The most outstanding among
passing events, involved the St
Patrick’s Day skiing party.
Transportation was afforded
through the liberalness of the
Sommers Construction Co., as
far as Sadelite Field, where the
clear road terminated. The re
maining two miles to the ski lodge
was accomplished on skiis, afoot,
or by dog team. Although the
snow was heavy and deep, other
weather conditions proved satis
factory The student body pro
vided refreshments, consisting of
hamburger sandwiches, pickles
and other side issues. As a high
school function, we consider it a
success.

PROCLAMATION
VICTORY GARDENS. 1944
WHEREAS, inreesed produc
tion of food is vital to tbe suc
cessful prosecution of the war:
and
WHEREAS shipping space is
limited, it is therefore obvious
ly desirable that Alaskans make
every effort to increase such
food production as lies withtr.
the Territories and their capa
bilities; and
WHEREAS a good beginning
has been made in recent years
with the planting and cultiva
tion of Victory Gardens which
have, to some degree, increased
the local food supply and in
creasingly taken a burden off
cargo space to Alaska; and
WHEREAS the Uniled Stales
Department of Agriculture has,
through the Extension Service.,
assigned a full-time field repre
sentative to assist Alaskans in
the growing of these Victory .
Garden food crops;
l
NOW THEREFORE. I, GOV
ERNOR GRUENING, do urge
all Alaskans to join in the
planting and cultivation of Vic
tory Gardens on a larger scale
than ever before and I urge
them +o begin now to make ade
quate preparation for the com
ing planting.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF. I
have hereunto subscribed my
hand and caused the Seal of the
Territory of Alaska lo be af
