DOOLITTLE IS
GIVEN HONORS
BY PIONEERS
General James Doolittle—
Jimmy to Alaskans and millions
of others—was given exceptional
recognition by Seattle Cabin No.
1 of the Alaska-Yukon Pioneers
at its regular meeting held recent
ly in Seattle. By unanimous vote
this illustrious Son of the North
land was made an honorary mem
ber of the order. A suitable testi
monial to the effect will be in
scribed and duly signed by North
ern Chief S. E. Lancaster, secre
tary A. J. Goddard, Assistant
Secretary John A. Buck and other
officers of the lodge, and forward
ed to the general at his head
quarters, where he commands the
American aviation forces in em
battled Europe.
Reared in Nome, where he re
ceived his preliminary education
and love of adventure and devel
oped his fearless characteristics,
he was knowTi far and wide in
Alaska long before he won world
renown. Beginning as a newsboy
on the old Nome Nugget when
Nome was the toughest town on
the face of the earth, he learned
there well how to fight his way
to the top, and still carries on in
the old spirit.
i The Pioneers at their recent
meeting, also paid high tribute to
James O Niell, noted Klondike
pioneer, who passed away recent
I
ly in California, and adopted res
olutions of esteem and regreV
which will be forwarded to sur
vivors of his family.
