Merchant Marine Group
Authorized to Investigate
West Coast Labor Dispute
WASHINGTON, W—The House
Rules Committee Monday ap
proved a resolution giving the
. Merchant Marine Committee the
authority to investigate a labor
jurisdictional dispute on the West
Coast.
Chairman Bonner <D-NC> said
the Merchant Marine Committee
needs power to subpoena witness
es in connection with its proposed
inquiry into what he termed a
work slowdown resulting from a
dispute between the AFL Sailors
Union and the International Long
shoremen’s and Warehousemen’s
Union.
Delegate Farrington <R-Hawaii)
supported the inquiry. She said
shipping is the life blood of the
Hawaii economy and there should
be some legislation to protect the
islands from disruption of ship
transportation.
Mrs. Farrington said also the
situation has eased, and that
should provide an ideal basis for
a committee study of the problem
without prejudice to the rights of
the unions and the rights of the
shipping companies.

Liniment Squad Wins
41 to 24 Over A Fighting
Officers Basketball Team
Tuesday night at the school
gym the Nome High Huskies
evened the series with the
Alumni Girls by winning 47 to 42
in a fast-moving, exciting, and
well - played basketball game.
Scorers for the Huskies were
Marge Willoya, Madeline Piscoya
and Reba Tungwenuk with 21, 14
and 12 points respectively. With
two wins for each team the series
is all tied up, so another game
will be played soon to determine
which of these two fine girl
basketball teams is the best.
The second game of the eve
ning featured the fast - breaking
“Liniment Squad” and the fight
ing “Officers” from the base and
the final score of 41 to 24 in favor
of the town team, did not give a
true picture of the close, well
played and hard - fought garpe.
Good sportsmanship and clean
fun were keynotes of the evening
as the two team played with very
little practice for the game, and
it was truly a remarkable per
formance.
For the Liniment Squad, high
point men were: Minix, Warneke,
Carpenter and Havens, with 12,
8, 7, and 6 respectively. For the
Officers, Lamen, Davis, Pecorelli,
Hinds and Holla scored 6, 5. 5,
4 and 3 respectively.
A capacity crowd of local fans
were on hand for both games and
came away well satisfied with the
evening’s entertainment.
There are rumors in the breeze
that the Liniment Squad has an
other game in mind as soon as
the drug store can get in a
“tanker plane” with a new supply
of liniment.

Senate Judiciary Favors
50 Percent Pay Raise
For Congressmen
WASHINGTON, UP)—A 50 per
cent pay raise for members of
Congress was recommended yes
terday by the Senate Judiciary
Committee, along with substantial
salary hikes for federal judges.
A bill approved by the cor. mit
tee would raise the pay of House
and Senate members to $22,500 a
year. This compares with their
present pay of $13,000, including
a $2,588 expense allowance.
Federal judges would receive
pay boosts of $7,500 to $9,500 a
year, and the speaker of the
House and the Vice President
would have their pay raised $5,000
a year.
The proposed pay raises are
$5,000 less than recommended last
year by an 18-member commis
sion set up in 1953 to study con
gressional and judicial salaries. .

Cornpopping Is Fun!
There’s something mysteriously exciting about popping
corn, where small, hard kernels bounce like hail on a slate
roof then spectacularly burst into beautiful, fluffy white
popcorn. Even if it weren’t such wonderful eating—popu
lar with folks of all ages—popcorn would be worth mak
ing, just for the sheer fun of it!
Popped in hot Spry, popcorn is extra-crisp, extra
tender, extra-good! The purity of the shortening lets the
full flavor of the corn come through in all its natural
goodness. It’s especially delicious served with mugs of hot
cider spiced with clove.
Bowls of fluffy popcorn are a must for winter parties
and home entertaining. Here is the newest recipe devel
oped in the Lever Test Kitchens.
Home-Popped Popcorn
Melt 1/4 cup Spry in heavy skillet. Add 1/2 cup pop
corn and 1 teaspoon salt; stir until first kernel pops.
Cover and shake over high heat until all kernels are
popped. Turn out into large bowl. Serve piping hot.
