MARTIN WILLOYA
PASSES AWAY
Martin Willoya died at home

ed from the hospital last Thurs

month.
Martin contracted a cold which
develop:d into pneumonia while
driving cat for the CAA.
He was born in Teller on Nov
ember 25, 1917, and was the son
of Mrs. Emma Willoya. He was
raised in Nome and had graduat
ed from the Nome High School
two y:ars ago.
Martin was very well liked by
every one and will be missed by
his companions.
Funeral arrangements have not

Cl PID HAS NO CHANCE
WITH ARMY’S BOYS
ANCHORAGE — “ Hands off ”
j signs were posted by Uncle Sam
in advising husband seekers to
keep away from his soldiers, be
cause Uncle Sam positively ref us
es to play the role of Cupid.
Co. John H. Hood, command
er of Fort Richardson, called at
| tention to present Army policy,
which is designed to discourage
enisled men below the top three
grades from taking wiws with
out the permission of their com
manders.
“And that permission is seldom
given, because a soldier below
the first three grad-s cannot sup
port a wife,” said Colonel Hood.
Soldiers ignoring Army restric
tions and taking wives without
: the required approval are auto
matically disqualified from re
enlisting wh n their term expir
es. Meanwhile, the Army makes
none of the customary allowanc
es for the wife as the man is
treated as a single man. Ha must
live in the barracks, he has no
housing allowance, and his wife
is not permitted passage on Army
transports.
“The restructions against mar
riage among enlist, d men are bas
ed on the economics involved,”
said Colonel Hood. “The enlisted
men do. not have enough money
to pay for rent, fuel, food and
other expenses in maintaining a
home off the post. Also, the men
are subject to transfer to other
1 posts at any time.”
The post commander pointed
out for the benefit of young lad
ies who may not already know,
the soldiers in Alaska “are here
today and gone tomorrow.” Some
of them may appear flush with
money and ready spenders, but
this appearance of wealth is only
sufficient to last a day or two af
ter pay day.
“A soldier is flush right after
pay day. but after a night or
two of spending, he must go out '
of circulation and live on the
post without the frills of night
life in the bright spots,” Colonel j
Hood said. The Army furnishes!
him board, room, clothing, med
ical care and all other necessit- j
ies, so he needs no cash on the
post.” j
Colonel Hood said he did notj
know whether Alaskans — and
particularly those at the age
where they are “setting their
caps” were aware of these Army
rules and conditions, so, to avoid
possible misunderstandings and
grief, he thought he would point
them out for special attention.
The effect of his statements
were to direct attention of hus
band seekers to master, technical
and staff sergeants, lieutenants
and captains. As a matter of re
cord, it might be added that all
officers above the rank of captain
at Fort Richardson are married.

Odd Fellows Entertain Rebekahs
Last Friday night after thei
meeting a good sized crowd of Re
bekahs and Odd Felows gather-!
ed in the Lodge Room for a good
time. If the expressions are any
criterion, all must have had a
good time, as the opinion was
general.
The entertainment began with
a very warm welcome by Chair-!
man Chas. Lewis who acted also!
in behalf of Noble Grand Bob
Baldwin who was indisposed and
could not attend. It was followed I
by 12 gamoe of cards and before!
the awarding of prizes a treat
was in store for those present.
Mr. W. Bousher, who had been
playing some of the finest music
that can be obtained anywhere in
the world by the most renowned
artists, at this point sprung a sur
prise, by reproducing the inter
view of Miss Alaska over station
KFAR. The same was broadcast
through Nome and we hope that
everyone here has heard it. Miss
Jones is entited to all she attain
ed and Nome is proud of her. She
did not mince any words, Nome
is her home and she did boost for
her Home Town.
A. Polet next on the program
spoke on Odd Fellowship and eu
logized Miss Alaska. The refresh
ment served were up to standard
and everyone enjoyed same.
The winners at cards were as
follows:
Ladies: 1st Mary Goble, 2nd

G. Hoven.
Gents: 1st Peter X. Peterson,
2nd Ellis Hedson, consolation

with the other councilmen and
try for a prize at the Hard Times
Party next Saturday.
