steamer, after a winter spent in on the outside, it is'learned, that before gold was struck at Nome, q small band of prospectorS land ed a. the mouth of Sinrock River n ; 26 miles from Nome, and discovered gold near its mouth, finally they went upstream and found more gold, also other well known metals such as lead, cop per. coal and iron ore, but they became discouraged in their eff forts to develop that section due to the high cost of transportation. wt,fch-cost Si25.e0 pefa.eo,f ., : ts supplies landed 10 miles inland, and still today, the cost would be practically the same because that area has never had any roads built to help the prospector de- velop the mines.
 Four or five miles back from the beach there is likely dredging property of vast area. Gold min ing has been done 10 some ex- tent by the pick and shovel met bod as far back as l5 miles in a desultry manner.
 There is Irish Hill, some 8 or g miles from the beach, where in the early days an old channel or paystreak was discovered, ex- tending some 400 or 800 feet ab- ove sea level, rich in gold depos: it's from the grass roots down to known depth of 90 feet. Num- erouS shafts were sunk on this channel which is all thawed ground, and was considered in those days of tremendous high costs of transportation, to be tremendous hydraulic propoSi- tion. Nome mining men who were interested in it's develop ment caused a survey to be made for the construction of big ditch to bring water from Stewart riv- CT to mine the ground, but due to the excessive cost of construc- ton of the long ditch by the old and crude methods used in those days, the project was abandoned, and nothing has been done since to open this valuable piece of thawed ground. but lies dormant awaiting modern transportation and equipment.
 MT. Esch further states, that about l2 miles from the beach of Bering Sea, there is a field of iron ore, in one place it is expos ed 250 feet in depth by 500 feet in width. and has been traced over an area 10 miles wide by 25 miles long. This particular iron ore is known as "hemetite", the

RICH MINERAL AREA

 ATTENTION NATION

Thirty eight years have gone by since gold was first discovered in paying quantities in and around Nome, many millions of dollars in gold bullion has been taken from the bowels of mother earth, more millions are being extracted each and every year, and more millions will continue to be min ed as each succeeding year comes around-yet only the richest of the paystreaks have really been mined.
 Every year somebody invents some eFnew contraption that dJeS away with obsolete mechanical or hand methods ot operation & as a result, modern machinery is inst al led that makes not only more profits. but makes it posSi- ble in this day and age to work gold bearing ground that a few years ago was considered too low grade to be mined at a profit.
 To one who has watched the mining of gold in it's different stages throughout these 37 years, on the Seward Peninsula, from the days of the pick and shovel methods to the present modern way. with modern equipment, one cannot disbelieve the state ment made some 30 years ago by that famed and well known geo. logist, Alfred H. Brooks, now de- ceased, when he went on record as saying that the Seward Pen insula was one of the worlds greatest alluvial gold deposits known of, and that the tundra and low lands from the beach of Boring Sea from Cape Nome to Cape Rodney and back to the foot hills, would someday be mined by modern machinery and more modern equipment, still to be invented. which will make it possible to work even lower grade values.

 And yet, after all these years of mining there lies dormant, within 27 miles of Nome, to the westward, what is known as the Sinrock River area, rich, not only in gold, but copper, lead cinnabar and iron ore and coaEawaitlng roads, a harbor, and other means of transportation to make it pos sible to mine and operate these at fair profit.

 The two squads will be coached by James J. O'Neill and Michael Hayes.

Delay In Deciding
 On Painting Project Basis Of Difficulty
Walsh, HOpeyile Schools Involved in Temporary Arrangement of Morning, Afternoon Sessions;
 Two Different Crews Are at Work

Many parents residing in the Hopeville and Walsh school dis-
 Ticts, particularly the latter, are extremely annoyed at the present time as Q result, of a double session scheme which has been ineffect in both schools for the past month, 1t was learned today. Judging from re- ports received by The Democrat there IS Q possibility that these groups may appeal to the board of education for some action on the matter at the next session. .
 " Parents Peeved
 Parents are indignant, 1t was learned today, not so much as @ re- suit of the fact that the double- sessions are in effect so that the schools can be painted and repaired but because the work was begun at Hopeville and Walsh two weeks af- ter the opening of school. Spokes- men in the districts seem to feel that this work should have been done during the summer months.
 At the present time, 1t seems, half the children in the upper grades go to school from s:l5 in the morn- ing until 12:l6 and the other half
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-10-20

from l2:l6 until 4:lS in the after- noon.
 As far as could be learned today the men painting and repairing at Walsh school are WPA workers while those at Hopeville are mem- bers of the school department crew Under the present setup the WpA work schedule cannot be changed because of the limited number of hours per month the men work and because recent curtailments of work relief rolls have reduced the num- Der of available men.
 Studying Situation
 Burton Walker, a member of the board of education who resides in the Hopeville district and who has always been interested in the school, said today that he would make no statement in regard to the situation until he had looked into the matter more carefully.
