Petition Asks
 Improved Road Palmer Port

A petition was being circulated among Valley residents this week which seeks the improve ment of the road leading to the Palmer airport. This road, along which several Valley families have located their homes, is now so deeply rutted and so soft that it impossible to all vehicles ex- cept jeeps and trucks.
 Several loads of gravel were dumped on the upper stretch of the road last week, but the peti- tion seeks to have it permanent ly corrected, so that all Valley residents will have year-round access to the airport. It is point ed out that Palmer's airport sometimes is utilized in the case of medical emergencies,

Contest Entry
 Deadline Is Set

Valley residents have only un- til May 20 to enter their farm home in the home Identification contest being sponsored by Northland Pioneer Grange, Mrs. L. c. Stock of the contest com- mittee announced today. Entry blanks must be returned to Mrs. Roy Brock, Grange secretary, by that date in order to be eligible for a prize.
 Each entrant in the contest must take picture of his home as it appears now before the cleanup campaign is begun. Then a second picture must be made at the close of the contest next Aug. 25. Prize winners will be picked on the basis of these before and after pictures.
 Points which will be consid- cred in judging contest entrants will include these factors, ac- cording to Mrs. Stock:
 Lawns, roads, flowers, fence rows, shrubs, trees, walks, drive ways, building painting, shutters and general cleanup of the farm yards, both front and back.
 Further information concern ing this contest may be secured from Parker Lester at the Exten-

BOND DRIVE ENDS WITH FRIDAY BANQUET

The bond drive of the Valley Hospital Association will end on Friday, May 7, it was announced today by bond drive chairman w. c. Mau. MT. Mau stated that the drive was progressing slow ly' toward it's $50,000 goal. That sum has been fixed as the amount needed with which to begin construction of a new hos pital building.
 Fridays drive end will be marked by a banquet to be held in the basement of St. Johns Lutheran church under the spon- sorship of the Valley Chamber of Commerce.
 All bond captains. their hus- bands and wives, and all board

members and wives will be in- vited guests at the anquet. Three members of the Lutheran's Ladies Aid and three members from the Ladies Aid of the Unit ed Protestant church have been selected to plan and serve the banquet.
 Victor Rivers, Anchorage en- gineer and engineer in charge of plans for the new hospital, will be the guest speaker of the evening.
 During the evening chairman Mau plans to present a complete tabulation of all funds received from each captain during the drive, as well as 8 final account ing of drive proceeds.

Superintendent Goes To Kodiak

Carl Smelling, superintendent of Palmer school, last week an- nounced his acceptance of the po- sition of superintendent at a school to be established at the Naval Operations Base at Kodi- ak. This school is to be a new one, operated at the Navy base for the first time next term.
 MT. Smelling had earlier this year announced his resignation from the local superintendent's position. No one has yet been named to replace him.

will not be decided for some time yet. The top seven candidates in Valley voting, in the order of their ranking were: M. D. Snod- grass and Stanley McCutcheon, Republican and Democrat who tied in the voting with 157 each, Heinie Snider, Joseph Loyer, D. T. McMahon, Clarence Keat- ing and E. G. Bailey.
 MT. Loyer and MT. McMahon appear definitely defeated as Democratic nominees, but the position of the other candidates remains uncertain.
 Only three ballots were dis qualified at the Tuesday cleo tion. One disgruntled voter turned in a blank ballot upon which he had scribbled Favor a third party only.'
 Election judges reported that many ballots were incomplete, when voters failed to indicate a full choice of candidates for all offices.
 Judges who served at the pri- mary election were Victor Falk, Sr., Mrs. Harold Stephan and Mrs. Irwin NeWville.

COf CTO Hear ARR Official

l.. A. Moore, public relations officer of The Alaska Railroad, will be the guest speaker at Wednesdays Chamber of Com merce luncheon, it was an- nounced today by program chair man w. L. Zeile. He is expected to discuss plans for new rail- bus service for the Valley, soon to be scheduled for daily Palmer Anchorage runs.
 Railroad officials visiting Pal mer last week indicated that the service can begin almost immedi- ately, for double-end railbuses, equipped to carry both passen- gers and freight, were said to be available for use now. It may even be possible to plan for two round-trips daily, if these trips can be worked out within the eight-hour working day of crew. men, it was said.
 The railbus will be headuuar- tered in Palmer and trips will be routed from here. Schedules still are indefinite, but MT. Moore is expected to outline tentative pro- posals at Wednesdays meeting.

'Tisn't Legal, So Don't Do It

Postoffice employees are sure it's spring now, for that positive postal signpost of spring, the chain letter, has been popping up in the mail chute pretty regularly of late.
 However, contrary to most signs of spring, this particu- lar one is drowned upon by Uncle Sam. Yes sir, those harmless little tokens which you send to five friends, with instructions for them to do likewise, are agin' the law. It's all tied up with lotteries, which also are verboten.
 Anyway postmistress Be atrice Huntley wants the an onymous chainsters to know that some of their anonymity has slipped, and that further more, they're, committing a Federal offense punishable by law when they beguile warm spring evening with their chain correspondence.

Local Folk Capture Voters Fancy

The Valley strongly upheld it's own last week, when the voters Sf Palmer precinct cast decisive votes for local and former local residents. Last Tuesdays pri- mary vote was unusually light, however, for only 275 voters cast a ballot
 In Valley voting, former resi- dent Harry DeLand led Frank Boyle in the race for Democratic nomination for territorial audi tor. MT. DeLand has since con- |ceded the nomination to MT. Boyle.
