the cost of living.
All territorial barber and
beauty shops are permitted to
charge the higest price they
charged during the period of
December 19 to January 25.
Any increases since that time

Clark Wins
Award
Donald W. Clark, saluta
torian of the Kodiak High
School graduating class of
1951, was the winner of the
Phipps scholarship for 1951
52, Dr. Terris Moore, presi
dent of the University of A
Iaska, announced this week.
Donald is a son of Mr. and
Mrs. Basil Clark.
The Phipps scholarship is
awarded for the highest
average grade in the com
petitive examinations given
each year. With the scholar
ship goes an award of $150
each year for the four years a
student attends the Univer
sity of Alaska.
Dr. Moore planned to an
nounce the award during the
commencement exercises from
the speaker’s platform. He
was unable to attend the
exercises here, for which he
was scheduled to be speaker,
because of inclement weather.
This makes Clark’s second
scholarship to the University.
At the local high school
graduation last month, he was
awarded a scholarship given
by the university each year
to the highest standing stu
dent, or the salutatorian, in
each graduating class in the
territory. That Scholarship is
worth $100 per year.
Clark is employed this fish
ing season by the Fish and
Wildlife Service as a stream
guard at Litnik. He plans to
enter the U of A this fall.
This is the second time a Ko
diak student has won the
Phipps scholarship.
Bob Lear, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Les Sorum won the
award two years ago.
