S.E. Legislators Polled Would Continue
Ice Classic, Permit Charitable Lotteries
ANCHORAGE, UPl — Five law
makers from this area in the First
State Legislature said Monday they
would favor legislation permitting
the operation of charitable lotter
ies and the continuance of the
Nenana Ice Classic.
The legislators said they were
not advocating open, legalized
gambling, however. All were of
the opinion that safeguards would
have to be written into legislation
to prevent such gambling.
The three senators from the
South Central District were more
conservative. All said they would
want to sound out public opinion
before taking steps to legalize any
type of lottery.
The situation came to a head
last week with the lottery convic
tion of Wendell Fix. The jurors
who convicted him demanded a
police crackdown on all lotteries
to end what they called a “double
standard” of law enforcement.
“We see lotteries all around us
and yet we convict Fix of lottery
operation,” said one juror.
Anchorage area law enforce
ment agencies have announced no
lotteries would be permitted to
operate here in the future, whe
! ther charitable or not.
The legislators were approached
by the Anchorage Times for their
opinions on the situation and
what, if anything, could be done
to save charitable lotteries or
raffles and the Nenana Ice Classic.
Here are some of the comments:
Rep. John Hellenthal—“I think
we could have state legislation,
like a provision in the New Jersey
constitution, permitting charitable
non-profit bingo and raffles un
der strict supervision. This legis
lation also could include the Ne
nana ice pool. This would be un
der the supervision of the state.”
Rep. Russ Meekins — “I think
that the overwhelming majority
of people favor continuation of
the Nenana Ice Classic, and also
various forms of charitable func
tions. I believe the most likely
solution would be to set up a
commission and issue permits, and
' ■— -, _
great care would have to be taken
so this would not become a spring
board to legalized gambling.”
Rep. Bruce Kendall of Valdez,
visiting here, had this to say: “As
far as I’m concerned any future -
legislation dealing with lottery
bingo or gambling should either be
prohibited or enforced, or it should
be open under stiff regulatory sta
tutes. All laws must apply to each
and every individual, regardless
of his station in life.”
Sen. Ralph Moody — “Whether
charitable organizations should be
allowed to continue to operate
lotteries will depend upon how
the majority of the people feel
about it. If I were convinced a
majority favored it, I would have
no opposition to it. I would favor
a special election to learn whether
such activities (charitable lotter
ies) are wanted.”
Getting Their Goat . . .
ROSEBURG, Ore., Iff) — Oregon
State College professors are tak
ing an interest in the goats who
forecast Roseburg’s weather.
These goats roam wild on Mt.
Nebo above Roseburg. Residents
watch their movements closely.
“The goats are up,” is a heart
ening cry in Roseburg. Picnics
are planned, golf dates are made
and fishing trips planned. Invar
iably the sun shines.
But when the goats come down
from Mt. Nebo to the shelter of
shallow caves, bad weather inev
itably follows.
How do they know what the
weather will be?
That’s what OSC professors
want to know. Stephen Shou, Ore
gon State College librarian, has
written asking for extra copies of
a recent Roseburg newspaper story
on the goats. He said a number of
professors are interested in know
ing why townspeople remarked
‘‘The goats are down” last Sun
day.
The people here know why. It
rained on Monday.
