Rotarians Honor District
Governor George Maloney
At Dinner Last Evening
Rotarians held a dinner meeting
last night honoring District Gov
ernor George Maloney, who gave
an inspiring talk to' the Nome
club.
Featured on the program was a
film made in Kotzebue last year
by Frank Whaley. It showed the
life of an interesting little Alas
kan bird known as the murre, a
sea bird which lays its very large
pointed eggs on rock ledges. This
bird is sometimes called the Al
aska penguin, as it is a dark bird
with a light breast. Whaley spent
considerable time last year climb
ing places almost inaccessible to
photograph these nests.
The picture is one of a series
prepared by Whaley for a TV
show completed last month.
Mrs. Diannah Garland of Bel
lingham arrived today for her
first visit in Nome with her
daughter, Mrs. Ben Gillette.

cousin of Mrs. Gillette, will also
be a house guest and enjoy a visit
here.
