AIR FORCE AID SOCIETY
FUND DRIVE CONTRIBUTED
TO BY NOME MERCHANTS
The annual Air Force Aid So
ciety Campaign conducted in;
Nome on Aug. 7 was very suc
cessful.
The money donated by the mer
chants and individuals of the town
will be used to assist airmen who
encounter financial difficulties
due to transfer or for other rea
sons. The money is usually paid
back to the Aid Society in small
monthly installments without in
terest, or if the airman should be
unable to pay his debt, it is can
celled.
Much of the credit for the suc
cessful drive was due to the Beta
Sigma Phi sorority and the fol
lowing members: Terry Jackson,
Carol Jones, Shirley Goedde, and
Vivian Haymes.
Lt. Col. Harold I. Williams,
commander of Nome Field, ex
pressed his appreciation to the
business houses and individuals
who so generously contributed to
such a worth while cause. .
IN COMMISSIONER'S COURT
Gregory Ayac was sentenced
to 30 days in Federal jail for
being drunk and disorderly.

Enforcing Traffic Laws
Mapy people were surprised to
find traffic tickets on their cars
this morning for a wide variety
of traffic violations which are
now being enforced by the City
Council.
The city magistrate, Carrie Mc
Lain, advises that in most cases
the first violation will not carry
a fine, insomuch as the traffic
rules have not been observed for
some time and people will be
given an opportunity to learn
what is the right way and the
right place to park. Violations
consist of parking by hydrants,
having faulty brakes, no vehicle
permit stickers, no licenses (both
territorial and city) and exceeding
the speed limit.
