WILL TOUR ALASKA FIRST
Mr. and Mrs. Bob Reddiway are
leaving on vacation and are
“seeing Alaska first” as they plan
to spend part of their vacation
visiting within the state before
taking off for the “outside.”
Alaska is busy trying to sell
itself to tourists of other states
and too few take time to see its
wonders themselves.

Keeping Her
Balance Is a
Hazardous Job
NEW YORK (A) — While most
young ladies of her age are fuss
ing over hair-dos, perfumes and
frilly frocks, Elizabeth Wamboldt
worries about keeping her balance
on a whirling log.
Elizabeth is a log-roller. More
than that, she is the best woman
log-roller in the world and, ac
cording to some observers, equal
to many men in the tricky and
hazardous art.
The pretty Canadian lass—23,
blonde and a trim 130 pounds—
currently is a hit of the National
Outdoor Exposition at the Coli
seum.
Here, she, her father and two
male opponents engage daily in
log-rolling and canoe-tilting con
tests — rough and ready pas
times which rugged timbermen
made popular in the pioneer era
of the North American continent.
Elizabeth doesn’t look the part.
She is shy, quiet and even frail
looking for all her well-uphol
stered five-foot-eight chassis.
“I began log-rolling when I
was eight but I didn’t become
reasonably competent until I was
14,” she says. “When you start,
you fall and fall and fall until
you develop balance.”
In log-rolling, competitors get
on a spinning piece of timber and
try to stay on until an opponent
falls. Elizabeth frequently out
lasts the men.
Besides log-rolling, Elizabeth is
a standout swimmer, skier, basket
ball and tennis player. She is a
crack shot with shotgun, rifle
and pistol.
And men friends? She has some,
but none serious. “It’s just that
I haven’t caught up with them
yet,” she says.

Workmen's Compensation
Is Serious Deterrent to
Economic Expansion
JUNEAU (/Pi — Alaska’s work
men’s compensation and employ
ment security rates are “becom
ing a serious deterrent to the
economic expansion of the state,”
the Alaska Chamber of Com
merce said todav.
Walter J. Hickel, Chairman of
the Chamber’s Economic Develop
ment Committee, said in the log
ging industry, for example, Alas
ka’s w o r k m a n’s compensation
rates are almost three times
Washington’s rates and almost
five times British Columbia’s
rates.
“The employment security pic
ture is in an even more serious
situation from a competitive point
of view,” Hickel said.
He said the average cost to
cover a worker per year in Alaska
is approximately $252, compared
with $81 in Washington a'd $49
in British Columbia.
The cost per man hoi”- fnv
workmen’s compensation in Alas
ka is 61 cents, Mickel said. In
Washington it’s 21 cents and in
British Columbia it’s 12 cents.
“If the state wishes to continue
to have economic expansion it
would appear some adjustment in
these rates must be done at the
earliest possible date by the Leg
islature and the governor.
“We are at a vital stage of
transition in our present economy
and every effort must be made
now to evaluate our competitive
position to encourage new pay
rolls, thereby reducing unemploy
ment and making new employ
ment available to all Alaskans.
We need to create a good econo
mic climate to bring in more em
ployment rather than the subsi
dizing of unemployment.”
