Nome Agent For Information
NWA C of C
Lauds M. Walsh
By RUTH McLEAN
“One of our citizens has re
ceived a singular recognition,”
James von der Heydt told the
NWA Chamber of Commerce at
their Monday meeting, and an
nounced that Michael J. Walsh,
life-time member of the Chamber,
had been asked to act as master of
ceremonies at the first State In
auguration in Juneau January 17.
Mr. Walsh stated that this was
meant in recognition of Nome, and
not of himself personally. Cham
ber President Jerry Manning re
plied that it was well known that
Mr. Walsh has been very impor- j
tant and instrumental in the work i
towards Statehood, and the Cham- j
ber was very proud that he had |
been asked to participate in the I
inaugural ceremonies.
The legislative and civic affairs i
committees of the Chamber will ]
make a presentation to the Legis-1
lative Council’s sub-committee
which meets in Nome January 8
and 9. The presentation will in
clude recommendations concern
ing the reorganization of the ex
ecutive and judicial branches of
the new State government, as well
as other matters of interest to
this area.
Chamber Manager John Mc
nees advised that he has been
corresponding with the Public Ad
ministration Service concerning
the resolution, in protest of the
PAS recommendation for three
administrative regions in the new
state.
A letter was received from the
director of military applications to
the Atomic Energy Commission in
answer to the Chamber’s inquiry
about the possibility of blasting a
deep-water harbor for Nome. The
reply stated that much experimen
tation must be done on atomic
energy before it can be used so
near a populated area.
A guest at the Monday luncheon
was Jack Aldworth, of Desilu
Productions, who is in Nome to
arrange for the filming of back
ground scenes for a Lucile Ball
Desi Arnaz - Red Skelton tele
vision show to be released from
Hollywood on February 9.
