Plan To Have
Baseball Park
In Use Sunday
Sunday was a busy day at the
future baseball park which is
shaping up in a hurry at the
north end of Steadman Ave., just
southeast of the U.S. Smelting
Co. shops.
Yesterday over a hundred loads
of gravel were dumped on the lo
cation by 11 p.m. with five vol
unteer dump trucks working all
day. Trucks were loaned by Pete
Reader, Chuck Reader, Les Bron
son, the ARC and the CAA. The
city loaned their bulldozer for
the day.
More gravel is to be hauled
again Tuesday evening starting at
6:00 p.m. and anyone owning a
dump truck and with a civic in
terest in the ball park are urged
to help out at this time.
Manpower with rakes and shov
els will be needed later in the
week, it was announced.
It is expected to have the field
in use starting next Sunday.

ALASKA STEAMSHIP CO., BOX 200, ANCHORAGE
Traders Inc. To
Open Sales Room
At Wallace Hotel
John Paden, a booster for Nome
for many years, is back to stay for
the summer and to organize the
setting up of the first branch of
fice of Traders Inc., a new sales
organization serving Alaska.
His office and sales room will
be located in the Wallace Hotel
where he will maintain a sample
line from many well known man
ufacturers.
He said that during the sum
mer he will announce the ap
pointment of a local resident, pos
sibly for the permanent manage
ment of Traders Inc., here and
then he will go to Sitka and
open another branch office there.
Paden also announced that Geo.
Madsen has been appointed sales
representative in the Washington
and Oregon territory for the com
pany and will handle several of
the lines carried.
Paden’s first customer was
waiting for him here when he
arrived. David Twitchell of Beth
el, who operates a general store,
believes that the establishment of
this office will be of much bene
fit to the remote trader. Another
trader who will arrive soon is
Peter Egrass, trader at McGrath,
who is coming here to do his buy
ing through Traders Inc.
Through many years of experi
ence while working and building
up ANICA, Paden has learned
many things about the problem
of the business men of northern
Alaska and has new theories on
giving better service and at the
same time creating a plan to unify
the people of the Second Division
while they are about their busi
ness, making Nome the buying
headquarters for the Second Div
ision.
Paden, who is on his fifth trip
to Alaska this year, stated that
Nome has always been his favor
ite Alaska town and that it is
like coming home to be located
here this summer.
