Classes Proves
Popular Here
The Automotive 4-H Club which J
was organized last month under!
the leadership of Sgt. Wm. Bu- i
chanan, has elected officers for
the course, with Joe Amarok as j
president; Ernie Ailak as vice ,
president, and James Bell as sec
retary-treasurer. Other members
of this popular group includes
Dannv Rockne, Billy Joe, Sig Sa- j
vok, Roger Wallace, Allen Rylan- !
der, Bert James, Billy Muller, Lee I
Oman and Floyd Kugzruk.
Sgt. Buchanan states that the
community’s response, as well as
the popularity of the project, has
■been most satisfying. Mr. J.
Woodward of the Trading Post
has given space in back of his
store for classroom and shop; Carl
Glavinovich has contributed lum
ber to seal the building; the Na
tional Guard has furnished the
stove, and Barrow Morgan loaned
a truck for the hauling of ma
terial and supplies. The military
authorities are contributing films
used for a similar course, to assist
the program.
The group is starting by learn
ing how to make minor repairs on
cars and trucks, and from this
knowledge hope to pick up some
funds by making car repairs. Then
they will go into the engine of
cars and find out not only what
makes them work, but how to
repair them.
The course has proven so pop
ular that there has been a re
quest for a girl’s class in the
same work.
