Boh Scott Attends
Boundary Commission
Meeting at Anchorage
Bob Scott leaves for Anchor*
age to attend a meeting of the
Boundary Commission.
Much research has been done
on boroughs and boundary lines
for the organized and unorganized
borough and some of the thinking
in the study tends to weaken the
city form of government entirely
within an organized borough.
A big question before the com
mission is where to make the
boundaries and how these lines
can be changed if they are not
adaptable or wanted.
On the Commission with Scott,
are Ben Fleenor of Ketchikan,
Mrs. Gordon Lyon of Anchorage,
Henry Camarot of Fairbanks. The
meeting is scheduled for Aug. 27
and 28.
