Plan Slimmer Migration
To Kenai Peninsula
DETROIT, — The leader of
another group of 125 Detroit fam
ilies which plan to leave for Alas
ka in June said today he isn’t
discouraged by difficulties en
countered by the first caravan
now enroute.
•‘We warned them about over
loading and about leaving this
time of year,” said Harry Tacina,
a 36-year-old automotive sales
manager who quit his job recently
to plan the June 22 journey.
Tacina, an ex-Marine who has
been to Alaska, said he foresaw
a lot of the troubles which have
slowed the ’59ers. The group was
bogged down at Fort Nelson, B. C.,
five days behind schedule and
1,300 miles from their destination
— the Kenai Peninsula.
He said some 600 persons due
to leave this summer are part of
the same group of ’59ers. “We’re
just going in two different cara
vans,” he said. i

Elvis’ First Appearance
Will Be Telecast After
His Army Discharge
MEMPHIS, Tenn., (J)—A closed
circuit telecast from Memphis
probably will be Elvis Presley’s
first public appearance after his
release from the Army next year.
Presley’s manager, Col. Tom
Parker, yesterday said the tele
cast, originating in City Auditor
ium, would be piped to theaters
across the country in March or
April, 1960.
“It’s the only way to satisfy all
the requests Elvis has received
for personal appearances,” Parker
explained. “He has got enough re
quests to tie him up through 1964.
it’s impossible for him to fill but
a small percentage of them.”

I Summit Meeting
O-K’d At Ike -
MacMillan Confab
GETTYSBURG, Pa., UP> — Presi
dent Eisenhower and British
Prime Minister Harold MacMillan
agreed Saturday on a formula for
offering to Soviet Premier Nkita
Khrushchev the prospect of a
summit conference later this year.
A proposed draft of the summit
meetping plan was dispatched im
mediately to the French and Ger
man governments and the other
NATO allies for their reaction.
The Western powers had already
agreed to propose a foreign min
isters meeting at Geneva begin
ning May 11 — and hold out at
least the possiblity of a follow
up summit conference.
The Anglo-American agreement
was a compromise, diplomatic of
ficials of both nations told news
men. None of the officials, how
ever, was ready immediately to
sketch the outlines in advance of
its submission to the Allied gov
ernments.
The agreement was disclosed
less than two hours after Eisen
hower and MacMillan began the
second day of their talks at Camp
David, in the nearby Catoctin
Mountains of Maryland.
MacMillan had come to the
United States hoping to persuade
Eisenhower, according to all ac
counts, to make a firm pledge for
a summit meeting this summer.
With the agreement on the sum
mit issue out of the way, Eisen
hower and MacMillan were ready
to turn to other topics, such as
suspension of nuclear weapons
tests.
The general European situation
also was open to review.

PNA Stewardesses Sign
Contract Without Mention
Of Cold Weather Wear
SEATTLE, OB — Pacific North
ern Airlines stewardesses last
week signed a contract calling for
a $35 a month pay raise, and a
company proposal that steward
esses be subject to retirement at
the age of 32 was dropped.
The controversial matter of the
wearing of ski pants by steward
esses in cold Alaska climes was
not mentioned in the contract,
either as prohibited or permitted
attire.
Officials said the company re
tained the right to determine the
type of uniform worn.
Said a company spokesman:
“They’re not considered part of
the official uniform. We don’t in
tend to let our stewardesses wear
them — unless the company de
cides they’re appropriate.”

W ade Requests
Special Funds For
Fish Trap Fight *
JUNEAU, W — A bill to pro
vide a $25,000 emergency appro
priation requested toy acting Gov
ernor Hugh J. Wade was intro
duced in the Alaska House late
Friday.
There was no immediate expla
nation from tiie Governor’s office
or legislative leaders on what
emergency the appropriation was
to cover. But it seemed clear the
money would toe used to hire spe
cial legal counsel for Alaska’s
proposed intervention in the fish
trap owners’ suit against the In
terior Department ban.
Wade asked the Legislature for
special funds for a legal fight
against what was then only an ex
pected challenge of the ban. The
suit has since been filed. The In
terior Depadtment will handle the
case against the trap owners’ re
quested injunction and Alaska is
expected to intervene on the side
of the government.
The first successful cross
country radio transmission from
jn airplane was received by xne
Naval Research Laboratory in
1928.
