Floyd Kugzruk Enjoys
Trip to Miami, Fla.
Floyd Kugzruk, Nome student,
who is representing the Luther
League for the Nome group of
young people at the Lutheran
Church at a Miami conference
writes that he is having an amaz
ing time on his first trip to the
outside. By train to Chicago, he
enjoyed the trees and green
things, especially in Minnesota.
He was impressed in Chicago
with the speed of the elevator,
reaching the 40th floor of the
Prudential Bldg., in 27 seconds.
The 80 degree temperature there
helped prepare him for the heat
of Miami, whcih was over 90 de
grees.
He reports the train cavalcade
of several hundred young people
arrived in Miami very tired from
their week long trip. The white I
sainds of Florida reminded him
of Alaska snow, he writes.
Enroute the group stopped at
the capital and were impressed
with the Capitol Bldg.

Coast Guard SC-130B
Hercules Overnights Here
A giant Coast Guard SC-1 SOB
Hercules jet-prop cargo plane
landed at Nome airport last Fri
day afternoon after flying over
4,000 miles from its home base
at Elizabeth City, N. C.
The aircraft, capable of carry
ing a 35,000-pound payload at
over 300 mph was almost fully]
loaded for a supply mission to1
a Coast Guard facility in Alaska.
The plane’s pilot, Lt. Don L.
Nystrom of Chicago, and his crew
of nine were overwhelmed by the
hospitality displayed by the resi
dents of Nome.
“We’ve made stops in Ohio,
South Dakota, Montana, Alberta,
and Yukon Territory,” said Lt.
Nystrom, “but nowhere did they
roll out the red carpet for us as
they did in Nome.”
The officers and men of the
huge cargo plane took in the
sights of Nome, visited the skin
sewers, panned for gold, and en
joyed the delicacy of reindeer
steaks.
After spending an overnight
and part of the following day re
fueling at Nome, the Coast Guard
Hercules continued on its mission.
