Alaska Methodist
U.’s First President
Resigns from Post
PORTLAND, — The first
president of Alaska Methodist
University, now in the formative
stage, resigned Friday and the top
Methodist clergyman in Alaska
was named acting president.
Dr. Donald F. Enright, who
came to Anchorage two years ago
from the University of Chicago,
resigned for personal reasons.
Bishop A. Raymond Grant,
Methodist Bishop of the Portland
area that includes Alaska, said
the Rev. Mr. Fred W. McGinnis
was named in place of Dr.
Ebright.
The Rev. Mr. McGinnis is super
intendent of Methodist work in
Alaska. He was graduated from
Emory University, Atlanta, Ga.,
in 1945, and received his theologi
cal education as Asbury College,
Wilmore, Ky.
Bishop Grant, chairman of the
college’s board of trustees adopted
an operating budget for the 1960
61 academic year, to be the
school’s first, of $350,000 inde
pendent of planned building.
He said they also approved
construction of a $650,000 dormi
tory for 100 students and five
faculty members and authorized
exploration of plans to develop
faculty housing on the campus.
The Rev. Mr. McGinnis has
been for nine years ' minister of
First Methodist Church, Juneau.
The liberal arts college will ;
have divisions of humanities, so- j
cial science and natural science.
“We are not in a position to
name the faculty members at
this time,” the Rev. Mr. McGinnis
said.

‘Wonderful Time’
Given Eisenhower
In Rome Visit
ROME, OP — President Eisen
hower had a truly wonderful
time.
That’s the way the President
himself put it in expressing
thanks to his hosts, Italy’s Presi
dent apd Mrs. Giovanni Gronchi,
after dinner and a reception m
his honor Friday night at the 400
year-old Quirinal Palace.
It was a swanky affair which
brought out the high society of
the political world, as well as bish
ops and other members of the
hierarchy of the Roman Catholic
Church.
At dinner there was only a small
group which included the Presi-1
dent’s son and daughter-in-law, :
Army Major and Mrs. John Eis
enhower. They are accompanying
the President on his goodwill mis
sion to 11 nations in Europe,
Asia and Africa.
About 3,000 guests were invited i
to the reception after dinner by
the Gronchis and it’s a safe bet
not many of them missed it.
For about 45 minutes Eisen
hower wandered through a dozen
lavishly decorated rooms of the
ancient palace, once the residence
of Popes. From all sides the ap
plauding guests moved in on the
President.
Beaming all the while, Eisen
hower occasionally spotted a fa
miliar face and stopped to shake
hands. Often he returned the
greetings of strangers.

ANB Routs ’Nooks,
Guards Trounce
Indies Friday Night
In the preliminary basketball
game Friday night, the National
Guard five, led by Captain Bill
Caldwell and “Prince” Hal Bell,
swamped the improving Inde
pendent five with a deluge of bas
kets. The Defenders of the North,
apparently the team to beat in
this season’s race, completely dom
inated all phases of play. They
swept both boards, were contin
ually blocking shots, and were
practically scoring at will.
The Independents were encour
aged tremendously by a marked
improvement in their shooting
percentage, which last week had
reached an all time low.
In the feature event of the pro
gram, the Alaska Native Brother
hood, with Arnie Castel at the
helm, had things completely their
own way, as they routed the High
School Nanooks. The scrappy
Nanook five, hustling all the way,
were just not up to matching the
larger, more experienced ANB.
Veteran Freddy Kungesuk finally
started to hit his stride as he led
the Nanooks with 14 points. High ;
men for the winners were Gary
Longley with 15, Jerry Trigg with
11, Jake Titus with 10, and Art
Trigg with 9 points.
The results of Friday night’s
play leave the ANB and the Na
tional Guard deadlocked, with two
wins and no losses, for the league
leadership. Tomorrow night the
twin bill scheduled will pit the
Merchants against the Polar Hor- j
nets in the preliminary, and the
Nome High five will try to upset
the high flying Guardsmen in
the nightcap.

Brazilian Air Force
Officers’ Revolt
Snuffed Out Fast
RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil, UP
— President Juseelino Kubits
chek has snuffed out the second
revolt against his regime.
About 25 rebel Brazilian Air
Force and Army officers have been
scattered since seizing five planes
early Thursday. At least two
oficers fled to Argentina in a hi
jacked airliner and were given
asylum. Several others were cap
tured and the rest headed deep
into the jungles of northwest
Brazil.
“I consider the incident closed,”
Kubitschek said Friday, declaring
that “events like these never will
be repeated in our country.”
The midget revolt aroused no
popular support and even anti-1
government politicians and news
papers rallied around Kubitschek.
Several of the ringleaders were
involved in a similar abortive re
cvolt in 1956 which was crushed
in 18 days. Kubitschek showed le
niency and granted pardons to the
officers then.
In the latest propaganda pro
test the officers charged the Ku
bitschek government with being
corrupt and Communist-tainted.
They flew the stolen planes to
the small jungle town of Aragara
cas, 1,100 miles northwest of here,
and sought to rally support.
Government paratroops took
over the town and its airstrip
early Friday, shortly after the
rebels pulled out.
Kubitschek said his government
will try to extradite the “air
pirates” from Argentina.
Louisiana Chief
Exec. Post Prize in
Religious Squabble
NEW ORLEANS, MP) — Religion
— Protestant versus Catholic —
could be a major factor in decid
ing Louisiana’s next Governor.
Governor Earl Long, shunned
by the voters in Saturday’s Demo
cratic primary, often has called
Louisiana tolerant. The January
9 showdown between New Or
leans Mayor Delesseps Morrison
and former Governor Jimmie
Davis may test this view.
Morrison, a Catholic, led the
record 11-man field. Davis, a Bap
tist, was next, trailing by more
than 60,000 votes.
Louisiana voters haven’t elected
a Catholic Governor this century.
Another important issue is seg
regation. Davis wasted no time
in bolstering his stand on this.
The 53-year-old hillbilly ballad
singer and movie actor said he
was convinced voters are con
cerned about their rights to de
cide their own problems.
Neither Davis nor Morrison
mentioned segregation much in
their campaigning for the first
primary, although both said they
favored it.
Long, barred by the constitution
from succeeding himself as Gov
ernor, was third in the Lieuten
ant Governor’s race.
