M. J. Walsh of Nome
Is Elected President Of
Pioneer’s Grand Igloo
The Pioneers of Alaska con
cluded their three-day convention
of Grand Igloo Sunday night with
a banquet honoring the new
Grand President, M. J. Walsh of
■Nome.
A wonderful time is reported
by Nomeites attending the meet
ing, where many of the older resi
dents of the territory met and
talked over old times.
The meeting was not altogether
one of past events, however, as
resolutions were adopted for the
future development of the terri
tory.
Some of the recommendations
of the Nome group, Igloo No. 1,
included a resolution for the
building of the Nome-Fairbanks
road; the admittance of all sons
and daughters to the organization
upon reaching the age of 21 years
(girls at 18); and statehood for
Alaska and legislation to estab
lish Feb. 7th as Pioneer Day in
the territory.
Correction:- The infant son of
Roy Tobuck, which died last week
was named Bruce instead of Roy
Jr. as stated.
Nome School Paper "North Star"
Will Be Printed This Year
A new project at Nome School
has just been announced. The
school is planning to publish a
school paper printed by local
printers. Heretofore, the school
paper has been mimeographed by
the students. It is felt that by
printing the pap£r, students will
get more practical experience.
And in order to accomplish this
it will be necessary to raise funds.
So the staff of the ‘‘North Star” is
sponsoring a Hallowe’en dance,
scheduled for Oct. 29.
