NANOOKS FINALLY
WIN FIRST GAME
In the second game of the
double header Friday night, the
new, exciting, Nome High School
basketball squad finally hit the
win column after several near
misses. The hapless victims were
the Jaycee crew.
The High School boys, leading
all the way, were not to be denied.
The brightest spot in the Nanook
win was the way Bill Oman
“racked” the boards. “Big” Bill, a
new comer to the line-up was
gradually gaining confidence in
himself and is proving to be a
ball player to be reckoned with.
The Nanooks completely domin
ated their offensive boards the
whole game.
Leading the point making de
partment was Johnny Herman
with 14 and Ronnie Locke with 8.
The Jaycees, conquerers of the
mighty National Guard, just
couldn’t seem to find the hoop.
Pete Hahn was high with 11 and
George Bell following with 9.
In the preliminary game Polar
Hornets beat ANB 73-57. Tony
Willoya led all scorers with 30
points.

TO ALL ALASKANS ---
To the people of all Alaska and especially
the people of this northwestern area, I am hon
ored to be appointed to fill the Senate seat of the
late Senator William E. Beltz who worked so
diligently for the development of this area and
all of Alaska. It will be a difficult task for me
to fill his place but with the cooperation of all
the people in this northwestern district, we will
succeed in developing this area which has been
so sadly neglected. I offer you my full support to
work with our legislators from this area for the
betterment and development of all Alaska.
With our great newly - elected President,
John F. Kennedy, his well-chosen cabinet mem
bers of the highest caliber, our Alaskan delega
tion in Congress, our governor, William A. Egan,
our state legislature and the good people in this
wonderful state of Alaska, I know we will go
forward in the proper direction and at a pace
heretofore unequalled.
PEARSE (Pete) M. WALSH
