P-TA Meeting
Honors W. Angell
For School Service
Wm. Angell, superintendent of
Nome School, who is leaving at
the end of the school year, and who
is a charter member of the Par
ent-Teachers Association, was pre
sented with an engraved ivory
desk piece last evening in appre
ciation of his work in the or
ganization since it was formed
in 1954.
Mr. Angell came from Minne
sota in 1945 to take over the
school, and has been here since
that time with the exception of
two years, when he taught a
year in Wrangell and was with the
U. S. Marshal’s Office for a year.
He gave a brief resume of his life,
summing it up with “The happiest
days of my teaching career have
been here in Nome.”
He stated he was leaving be
cause at his age he felt he would
rather have a smaller school, and
will be at Elmendorf next year,
where he will have about 125
students.
The new president of P-TA,
Werner Bohrer, presented Dusty
Rhodes, who heads the C.A.P. in
this area, who told of the many
advantages students have for fur
ther education by participating in
C.AP. Cadet programs. He urged
the parents to cooperate by see
ing that the members attended
meetings regularly. Rhodes is
working toward having an elec
tive credit course given in Nome
High, on Aviation, which should
be of special value to all students
here, where travel is limited to
air transportation.
Mr. Rhode presented two out
standing cadets, Larry Gillespie
and Carolyn Johnson, who told
the audience something of their
experiences and what their plans
are for the summer in connec
tion with C.A.P. encampments.
The new officers, Werner Bohr
er, president; Mrs. J. Dunlap, vice
president; Mrs. Lloyd Sundstrom,
secretary, and James Oksakturak,
treasurer, met informally with
P-TA members during a social
hour, with refreshments served
by mothers o eighth grade
students.

Yukon Dam Planning Pushed By Sen.
Gruening, for Future Power Supply
By FRANK W. VAILLE
WASHINGTON, UP) — Senator
Ernest Gruening Tuesday urged
an early start on planning for
construction of Rampart Canyon
Dam, which would be the nation’s
biggest hydroelectric power
plant.
The massive structure would be
built on the Yukon River, 90 miles
northwest of Fairbanks. It would
create a reservoir so large that
meteorologists say it might warm
Interior Alaska.
Preliminary reports from the
chief of Army Engineers indicate
a 13-year schedule between the
start of planning and completion.
“By that time.” Gruening said,
“Alaska will have a lot of people
— one million would-be a conser
vative figure, maybe two million
— and will need the power.”

Wife of Soviet President,
Herself An Ardent Red,
Dies In Moscow
MOSCOW, UP) — Ekaterina Da
videvna Vereshilov, wife of So
viet President Klementi Vereshi
lov and a veteran Bolshevik her
self, died Sunday.
She had been ailing for some
time. Her 78-year-old husband
also has been seriously ill for
months. Her age was not given,
but presumably it was close to her
husband’s.
She became a revolutionist at
the turn of the century and in
1907 was sentenced to three years
imprisonment. She was active kr
the 1917 revolution and worked
as a party organizer among the
Red cavalry.
Fine Job Printing At The Nugget.
i mittee last week directed Army
Engineers to go ahead with the
study but $135,000 must be ap
propriated to finance the work be
fore it can be started. Gruening
said the Alaska Congressional del
egation will seek the appropria
tion for use in the fiscal year be
ginning July 1.
The Rampart Canyon project
would have an installed generat
ing capacity of nearly 5 million
kilowatts — more than twice that
of Grand Coulee Dam, now the
nation’s biggest hydro project.
Power costs at Rampart Canyon
have been estimated at two mills a
kilowatt hour, not including trans
mission costs. This rate, compar
able to that at Grand Coulee, com
pares with the present cost of
power delivered at Fairbanks,
which is in excess of five cents.
The dam’s reservoir would cover
an estimated 10,000 square miles.
