Rain Hinders Work of

Roland Hetherington of the
Geodetic Survey with headquart
ers in Fairbanks passed through
Nome, having completed another
season of mapping in the First,
Third and Second Divisions with
105 men (divided in three groups)
who used 7 ’copters, 6 cubs and
3 other planes to carry out their
work.
Hetherington, who has been
with the department since 1946,
states that this year’s operations
were hindered with an excess of
rain. He was very enthusiastic of
the beauty of the Arctic and stat
ed that ptarmigan, sheep and cari
bou were in abundance.
This year’s operations were in
western Alaska from Bristol Bay
to1 the Arctic.
Police Commissioner
Visits Nome With View
Establish 2nd Div. Office
W. B. Healy, Territorial Police
commissioner, visited Nome over
the weekend in the interest of
setting up a Second Division ter
ritorial law enforcement office
here.
While here he studied suitable
sites for a modern office and liv
ing quarters building to serve this
area.
Healy said times have changed
when territorial officers were just
speed cops on the highway. Since
the enactment of the Territorial
Police Law at the last session,
these men are now law enforce
ment officers, well trained and
specially oriented with the prob
lems of Alaska.
Local young men interested in
entering this service may write
the Juneau office for application
forms, state Healy, who has been
a marshall in the Third Division.
The new office will be set up as
soon as funds are made available
by the legislature, he stated, and
he feels reasonably sure that the
Second Division will get its share
in this department.
