RETIREMENT LIST
JUNEAU— Though twenty-two
teachers have been certified by
John Dapcevich, secretary of the
Teachers’ Retirement System and
approved for retirement benefits
by the Board of Education during
its recent session here, many of

ment salaries for several years.

To receive -a retirement salary
under the law, a teacher must
have taught 25 years, 15 of those
years in Alaska, and must be 55
years old.
The teachers, who have quali
fied for retirement salaries when
they reach 55 and who were all
approved by the board are:
Margaret Berlin, Helen Gray
Bond, Evelyn Borigo, Mary E.
Curry, Margaret Cutler, Susan P.
Drenth, Everett R. Erickson, Geo.
Fabricius, Ben. F. Frampton, Lu
cille McDermott, Marguerite I.
Nichols.
Elma O. Olson, Gertie Otnes,
Mariette S. Pilgrim, Olga N. Prit
chett, Helen E. Pruessing, Agnes
Schlosser, Marjorie Tillotson, Lola
C. Tilly, Josie L. Waskey, Rosa
mond Weller, Ralph G. Wright.
They are added to a list of 25
teachers, who have previously
qualified.
The Alaska law provides that
eligible teachers shall “be entitled
to receive for life from the Teach
ers’ Retirement Fund a salary of
$1,200 per year paid in four equal
quarterly installments.”
