Dr. Albrecht Resigns
As Commissioner of
Alaska Board of Health
Mrs. Andrew Nerland returned
Monday from a meeting of the
Territorial Board of Health. She
reports that Dr. C. Earl Albrecht
asked the board to accept his res
ignation as commissioner of
health.
The Board of Health named Dr.
Charles R. Hayman, pxesent dep
uty health commissioner to serve
as acting commissioner of health
to fill Dr. Albrecht’s term of two
years.
Dr. Albrecht has accepted the
position of assistant director of
the Ohio Mental Hygiene and Cor
rection Department during the
coming year in order to gain med
ical administrative experience in
that field. He has held the position
of health commissioner of the Al
aska Department of Health since
1945.
In his letter to the Board, Dr.
Albrecht stated:
“I feel that in my own best in
terests and those of the Alaska
Department of Health the Board
should accept my resignation as
commissioner of health and ap
point a successor as soon as possi
ble. As much as I dislike leaving
the position of commissioner of
health and Alaska, I feel I should
accept the position which I have
been offered. It presents a very
attractive opportunity which will
give me excellent experience in
developing a mental hygiene pro
gram, participating in an exten
sive mental care facilities con
sti'uction program as well as as
sisting in the medical administra
tion of many institutions.”
Dr. Albrecht plans to leave Al
aska in February for his new
headquarters in Columbus, Ohio,
whei'e his family will join him.
Mrs. Nei'land visited with Mrs.
Selmar Johnson and Mrs. Ray
Tveter while in Anchorage and
also saw Carrie Ahsaruk and Mrs.
Mary Sims.

Snowplow for City's D-8
There was considerable discus
sion on the possibility of having a
snowplow made for the D-8 be
longing to the city. The matter
was left in the hands of the street
committee.
New School Playfield
Another matter brought up for
discussion was the playfield which
is scheduled for the north of the
school and about which the school
board was interested so that the
grounds can be gravelled next
summer. The matter was referred
to the incoming council, as it was
not included in the present budget.
Steps were taken to clear up an
old estate so that the land can be
cleared for the playfield.
