 Wrangells Mayor Fred Hanford landed the chairmanship of the powerful ways and means commit tee in the house Next to the speak CT it's the key post in the house. Hanford also headed up the com mittee on committees which lined up the standing committees for the session. Ways and means boss also was among the first to get bill in the hopper-a proposal to cover fishermen on boats under five-ton for disqualification. Likewise serv- ing at the bull moose of the First Division House delegation, Wran- gell's chief executive was being quite a busy man.
 Among the real firsts in the Legislature is Senator Andrew Ner- land of Fairbanks, one of the Ter ritory's best known pioneers. Ner- land went over the Dyea trail in the gold rush days, and he's stayed with the country ever since; has for years operated a successful fur niture business in the Golden Heart of the North.
 The Senator first came down to the Legislature in 1917 for it's tl.ird biennial session as member of the house from the fourth divi- sion. For 10 years he dropped out of the political picture, until 1887 when he came back to the house as the sole republican member of that body.
 Maybe Pm a couple of years early" remarks Andrew. "If l wait ed until 1947 it would have been just another 10 years"
 But up in the fourth they don't think so. He was elected to the sen ate without opposition. He's a fine asset to any legislature.
 Politics entered the 17th legisla' ture. with a bang on it's second day as two bills were introduced, ont calling for a blanket primary ani the other providing for direct cleo ton of national committee men ant committee women and for delegate to national conventions. Both wer' aimed at disrupting the presen
