62-36 Victory In
1st League Flay

to lead the Bronson Merchants to
a convincing 62-36 basketball- win
• over the Nome High School Na
, nooks. Between them, George

10, totaled more than the losers
final score.
Joe Senungetuk was top man
for the High School, with 13 points
followed by Aaron Bell and Oxer
■ok, Victor with 8 apiece.
The Merchants had little trouble
with the younger and smaller op
position, and demonstrated that
they have one of the better fives
in the local league.
The ACS-CAA quintet won the
second contest of the night with
a likewise wide spread, with a
56-28 victory, despite the inces
sant control of both boards by
the losing Polar Hornets’ Wally

in the second half turned a close
contest into a one-sided victory
for the winners.

for the winners with 22 points,
followed by Frank Austin with 11,
who played most of the second
half with the handicap of four
fouls, but managed to finish the'

Hornets kept thisgs close for a
time, ending up with 13 points fol
lowed by Parker with eight.

END OF CAMPAIGN . . .1
(Continued from Page One)
appeared to hold a slight edge
over Democrat Ernest Gruening,
71, in a battle between two for
mer Alaska governors for the
other Senate seat.
The length of the terms the first
Alaska Senators will serve will be
determined by a drawing when
they take their seats in January.
The Congressional contest be
tween Democrat Ralph Rivers, 55,
and Republican Henry Benson, 48,
appeared a tossup. Rivers was far
ahead in the early campaigning,
but there was speculation that the
'big margin had vanished in the
late days of the campaign.
Democrat William Egan, 44. was
favored to win the Governorship
over John Butrovich Jr., 48, the
Republican nominee. Victory for
Egan would carry into office as
Secretary of State his Democratic
running mate, Hugh J. Wade, 57.
However, Butrovich and Brad
Phillips, 33, GOP choice for Sec
retary, of State, appeared within
striking distance if a Republican
trend developed.
Two Independent candidates,
Mike Dollinter for Governor and
Donald Holton for Secretary,
were considered no factor in the
outcome of the race.
Democrats were expected-to win
control of the first State Legisla
ture, perhaps with as great a ma
jority as they held in the last Ter
ritorial lawmaking session. In the
1957 Legislature, the Democrats
had a 21-3 edge in the House and
an 11-5 margin in the Senate.
Robert Groseclose of Fairbanks,
chairman of the GOP Central
Committee, placed a 38,000 esti
mate on the total vote. His Demo
cratic counterpart, Felix Toner of
Juneau, placed it somewhere be
tween 35,000 and 40,000.
More than 46,000 voted in Aug
ust at a special referendum at
which Alaskans accepted State
hood by a 5-1 margin. The high
est previous vote in a strictly Ter
ritorial election came in 1956,
when 28,903 Alaskans went to the
polls.
PHOEBE OFFICERS ELECTED
The officers of the Phoebe
Circle of the Covenant Church
elected at a recent meeting are as
follows:
President, Helen Carlson; Vice
President, Jennie Oksoktaruk;

retary, Frances Walker; Treas
urer, Margaret Olson.
The Circle members are contin
uing their felt jacket project,
which aids in the support of the
Covenant missionaries at Nuni
vak Island: Ellen and Howard
Slowooko, formerly of Nome.
