DIARY ...
We wish to apologize for an
error in the story last week that
listed Dora Naughton as a guest
at a party. Our reporter turned
in the name Dora Gregoroff but
we knew Dora Gregoroff had
married and become a Naughton
so we changed the name to
Naughton but Dora Gregoroff
Naughton was not at the party;
instead it was Dora Gregoroff,
her sister-in-law who didn’t
used to be a Gregoroff but be
came Dora Gregoroff when she
married Dora Gregoroff’s bro
ther.
j We don’t see how we ever
made such a mistake.

"Wiseman was given wide
publicity several years ago by
Robert Marshall in his book,
“Arctic Village” but the little
community has changed since
then,” Jack McCord, widely
known Alaskan from Kodiak,
declared in Fairbanks after a
tiip to the old-time camp.
“Before the war Wiseman had
a considerable population, com
posed of Whites and Natives.
Now most of its pre-war resid
ents of both races have moved
away.
“The camp has only 12 White
men, one White woman ana a
few Natives.
“The town's White men range
from 93 to 60, the average being
about 75 years
“For instance, Carl Frank,
minei, is 93; J. Creacy, Negro,
Spanish-American war veteran,
mining on Kelly’s Mistake, is
80; Hans Christenson, miner,
78; Albert Nash, mining on
Goldbot'om, 76; Ace Wilcox,
miner, 76; Nick Skovich, mining
on Mascot, 73; Billy English, U.
S. Commissioner and storekeep
er, 70; Joe Ulan, radio operator,
who repoits the weather hourly
13 hours a day, 68; Sm th Wana
maker, mining on Nolan Creek,
60; his wife is the only White
woman.
“Almost all of Wiseman’s in
habitants have lived there more
than 40 years, and they are un
usually active for their ages, and
lack none of the necessities of
life, even with the airplane
freight rate from Fairbanks 12
cents a pound.
“Wiseman is now a camp of
fine men and coarse gold. Be
cause of its yellow metal re
sources, its growth and develop
ment are certain when peace
comes again.”
Mrs. Ruth Breckburg, who re
turned to Kodiak on the Cor
dova, has written the following
impression of her trip, which
provides an interesting sidelight
on how the great Outside looks
to a traveler from Kodiak:
“The Cinderella curfew—all
entertainment places are closed
at midnight sharp—and the
blackout of outside advertising
in the large Eastern cities com
bine to give the States a differ
ent aspect now. I just got back
on the Cordova from an 8,000
mile jaunt—my first Outside
