Drama Club Meets Emergency

The last issue of the Nome Nugget carried an announce ment that the Drama Club would present a play on Oct. 18th; but there was also an announcement of the postponement of the Fair to Oct. 20-22. This forces a change in the Drama Clubs plans, as it would be unwise to give the play just prior to the Fair opening. And since October
 18th is now a clear date, left vacant by the Fair postponement the Drama Club is pleased to be able to provide entertainment for that evening by presenting the play a week sooner than plann- ed. Only the good sportsmanship and ability of the gallant cast make this possible. Amateur plays are often postponed; but not often presented earlier than intended. Save October 18th; make it a lucky day for the Ora ma Club by attending the per

people wing their way South ddring November and December.
 The winter glory that once was Nome's, is fast becom- ing just another sourdough memory. While the annual pro- d=e.ion of gold, our principle contribution to the economic scheme of things. is perhaps slightly above former years, ex- cepting the years prior to the late world war and during the war, yet is seems apparent that more than ever Nome has been relagated to the status of sum mer mining camp. Last winter saw but little employment and minimum of people-it appears that the coming winter will be a repitition of the last.
 This situation is true of most of our northern Alaska towns whose life's blood jS dependent upon mining Secretary of the Interior Ickes hit the nail on the head when in a speech made at Juneau recently, he said. Alaska, with all it's great natural wealth and resources will never fulfil it's destiny, or achieve statehood until some method is devised to effect permanency of population far too many people are using the Territory to acquire a quick stake, with no interest in Alas ka's development beyond that. AlaSka's population is approxi- mately the same as it was 20 years ago, and So we may add is Nome's, but only through the large increase of late years in the native population.

The annual exodus of the King Islanders, l80 strong, occurred yesterday when the tribe board ed the M s. North Star for the return to their Boring Sea island home. This ends their annual hygeria to the mainland, and while it is undoubtedly to the best interests of this fine sturdy independent tribe of Eskimos to return to their rock-bound is land home, it nevertheless cuts a decided slice out of the cake of Nomes business and economic life.
 In day or so 150 Diomede Islanders return to their island home in Boring Straits. Add this number to the King Island total, plus the l20 recently departed on the s. s. Baranof, and you have a total of 450 people al- ready departing from the shores of Nome--and the last boat ex- odus is yet to come.

GIVEN TERMS
Judge Tells Thea Sem
fences Mild Compared to
German Procedures

NEW YORK, Dec. 8. (UP)-
The first sentences for espionage
in this area since the World war
were meted out yesterday to four
members Of a German spy ring
in federal court.
The longest sentence, six years,
was given to Otto Hermann Voss,
39-year-Old Germantown airplane
mechanic. who was accused of
stealing war secrets from an air
craft plant at Farmingdale, n. T.,
and peddling them to Nazi secret
agents.
Miss Johanna Hofmann, red
haired beautician aboard the Ger
man liner Europa, who acted as
"go-between" carrying messages
from German agents in Europe to
the members of the spy ring IN
the United States, was given
four-year sentence.
Erich Chaser, former army pri-
vate at Mitchell Field, n. Y, and
Guenther Gustave Rumrich, ex-
army sergeant and deserter, who
pleaded guilty and turned govern
ment's evidence, got two years
each. .,
The first three were convicted
earlier this week after jury de-
liberated "a hours in the case
which has drawn more attention,
due to it's international implica-
tions, than any spy trial since the
World war.
The jury told Federal Judge
John Knox that it had reached a
decision on Miss Hoffman, and
Yoss on the first ballot, but was
unable to reach a decision in the
case of Chaser, whose chief part
in the spy plot appeared to be in
connection with giving informa-
ton to Rumrich.
After re-reading the evidence
involving Chaser, the jury con-
victed him but recommended lem

LARGEST CROWD OF WINTER
SEASON IN TOWN; CHRISTMAS
BUYING STARTS EARLY HERE
Santa MingIes With Thou
sands of School Chill
dren From County

With Santa Claus as the chief
visitor, Hendedsonville was host
today to its largest crowd of the
winter season as several thousand
county school children mingled
with adult shoppers on the streets
and in the stores.
The occasion was county school
day, and as early as $50 a. M,
pupils from all parts of the county
began registering in the basement
of the city hall, facing King street,
in competition for three cash
prizes of S25, SIS and SO to be
awarded by Hendersonville mer-
chants to the schools having the
largest percentage of their enroll
ments in town, the distances the
children had to travel being taken
into consideration also.
Meanwhile, Santa Claus made
his way up and down the streets
greeting little tots and giving each
stick of candy, lollypop or other
favor. In new attire from head to
foot, Santa had difficulty making
progress in his travels. At almost
every step he was REQUIRED to stop,
greet a group of children. answer
numerous questions and pass out
the sweets, which were carried IN
a red mesh bag suspended from
one of his broad shoulders. He
was much pleased with the recep,,
ton given him here, he said, and
promised to return as soon as pos
sible.
At the city hall continuous
line of school pupils passed before
several registrars, gave their
names and indicated the schools
in which they are enrolled. This
accomplished, they fastened back
to Main street-many in search OF
Santa Claus.
Sales stats in the stores were
busy from early forenoon, and
merchants said they anticipated a
large volume of business through
out the day. They especially ex-
pressed satisfaction that the pub
lie apparently is beginning its
Christmas shopping early-in Hen
Jacksonville.
