FOOTBALL
NEW YORK, UP) — Only four
major colleges — Louisiana State,
Mississippi, Colorado and Rut
gers — remained unbeaten and,
untied today as the nation’s list
dwindled to 33.
LSU and Mississippi each has
won six games, Colorado and
Rutgers five apiece.
Rochester, N. Y., is the only
one of the 33 which has not
yielded a point while chalking up
five victories.

Wide Campaigning
(Continued from Page One)
Butrovieh has been basing much
of his campaign on the promise of
a state school board independent
in the selection of a commis
sioner of education for the new
State. Democrats have answered
that such talk is premature.
Brad Phillips of Anchorage,
GOP candidate for Secretary of
State, has been traveling with Bu
trovich on his campaign swing.
Territorial Treasurer, Hugh J.
Wade of Juneau, Democratic Sec
retary of State nominee, has cam
paigned briefly but apparently
awaits Egan’s final drive to in
tensify his efforts.
Both Secretary of State candi-"
dates are limited to support of
their Gubemtorial running mates.
There will be no place on the bal
lot to vote for a Secretary of
State — without casting the same
vote for the candidate’s teammate
as Governor.
The Miners And Merchants
The Miner would rather go broke and live on beans
Just lo be out in the open and mine the streams
The Old time Miner can't be changed
Regardless of the price of gold
He would ask for twenty dollars an ounce
And fight the mosquitos and cold
| He will come to town when the pits freeze over
Waiting for the coming season to do it all over _
They are the Alaskans we all love
The old time miner who will never say mud
I would have made out this summer but the season was dry
But wait until next summer and I will be living high
On the second of Oct, I panned out an ounce
God what a sight. On the third of Oct. it was froze up tight
So you see I know I am on the pay
So just give me a little credit to last me until May
Once many years ago this happened lo me
And merchant Polet answered my plea
As miracles go I came out ahead
But many others are legend that are dead
As long as there is a Nome on the Bering Sea
And kindly merchants lo assure the miners plea
There will be miners traveling on a lonely Creek
Seeking the gold all theirs to keep
Until God lays them away in a peaceful sleep.

Soviets Charge
Nobel Award Is
Cold War Plot
By . HAROLD K. MILKS
MOSCOW, UP) — The Soviet
union charged Saturday the award
of the 1958 Nobel Prize for lit
erature to Boris Pasternak was
a cold war plot against Russia.
The Literary Gazette said the
award announced Thursday in
Stockholm was “a hostile political
act directed against the Soviet
State.” This was the first official
Russian comment on the award.
The Swedish Academy of Let
ters voted the prize to Pasternak
for his novel “Doctor Zhivago,”
which sharply critici/es life in
Russia under the Communists. A
best-seller abroad, the novel has
been withheld from publication
inside the Soviet Union.
Pasternak said in an interview
he did not believe the Nobel Prize
would mean publication of his
novel at home. But neither did he 1
expect to be affected adversely j
because of the attention focused ]
by the award, the 68-year-old
poet and translator added.
Pasternak said he was over
whelmed and overjoyed at selec
tion for the world’s top literary
award. A cable received in Stock
holm said he hoped to go to the
Swedish capital December 10 for
presentation of the award and the
$41,4-20 that goes with it.
But there was no official word |
here whether Pasternak would be
permitted to make the trip.
The Literary Gazette criticized
both the selection of Pasternak
and the book itself, which had
been attacked in Russia several
times since it was first published
in Italy last year.
The journal called the novel
“an artistically squalid, malicious
work replete with the hatred of
Socialism Communism,” and said |
it was “the life story of a wicked,
narrow-minded enemy of the rev- |
olution . . . petty, useless, mean.”
