 Trucks Along AItan

DETROIT, March 19.--lR-- Six Army trucks used in frigid, 4.682- mile Arctic Test" along the Alcan Highway were being studied today by Army ordnance experts.
 The trucks were driven here from Fairbanks, Alaska, as a test of the Army's newest winterization kit. The trip took 16 days.
 Col Joseph M. Colby, chief of the Development Engineering Di- vision at the Detroit Arsenal, said the kit contained special lubri- cant that could be used in ex- tremely low temperatures.
 We made a successful test with the winterization kit in Alaska and the convoy lost no time in moving through hazardous conditions along the Alcan Highway" Colby said.
 Previously, lie added, general use machinery was unable to function properly with other lubricants in extremely cold temperatures.

 APPOINTMENT JUDGE DIM0ND E ExpECTED
By Alice Frein Johnson

WASHINGTON, March 13.-An- thony J. Dimond, District Judge for Alaska's Third Division (An- chorage), today was reappointed to the position by President Truman.
 Judge Dimond, Territorial Con- gressional Delegate from 1883 to I945, has many friends here in legislative and judicial circles. Lit tie, if any, opposition to his re- appointment is expected, Senate leaders said.
 Members of the judiciary com mittee who will report on the nomination before it is voted by the full Senate, are.
 Senators Alexander Wiley, Wis consin: William Langer, North Dakota; Homer Ferguson, Michi- gan; Chapman Revercomb, West Virginia E. H. Moore, Oklahoma; Forrest c. Donnell, Missouri John s. Cooper, Kentucky-al Repub- licans; Pat McCarran, Nevada; Harley M. Kilgore, West Virginia, James o. Eastland, Mississippi; Warren G. Magnuson, Washing ton; J. William Fullbright, Arkan- sas, and J. Howard McGrath, Rhode Island-Democrats.
 Senator Wiley, chairman, said the reappointment would be con- sidered only on it's merits, and that the fact Judge Dimond was a Democrat would not bear on the committees decision.
 Several Senators, not on the committee, are reported having told Wiley his committee was fav- oring the re-appointment of too many Democrats.
 John Henry Dimond, and his wife, Roberta, son and daughter in-law of Judge Dimcnd, will re- turn to Alaska this summer. He recently passed the District of Columbia bar examination, four. before he will be graduat- cd from the George Washington law school here.
 Young Dimond said he would practice in Alaska-but not in Anchorage.
 Mrs. Dimond is assistant secre- cary to E. L. Bartlett, Alaska Dele gate. The couple lives in Silver springs, Md

MANY VISITORS SEE MENDENHALL GLACIER

Nugget Creek Registration Booth books on the east side of Men denhall Glacier have been remov- ed and compiled for the calendar year of 1947 by District Forest Ranger Larry Zach. Some in- teresting revelations resulted.
 4 total of 3,735 visitors register ed at the station. Of this total, 2,s95 were visitors from the United State: 233 from foreign countries; the balance. or GIT, gave cities within the Territory as their ad dress, Among the States and Territories, California leads with a total of S99 registered visitors. The State of Washington followed with 542 Third on the list was Illinois with l73 Oregon follow ed with 158. All other states had less than a hundred visitors; however. every state in the Un- ion was represented by at least iWO NlSiLOIS-
 Among the foreign countries, Canada led with 19l; followed by England Other countries repre- sented include Australia, France, Nova Scotia, Scotland, Spain, Swed- en, Switzerland, Russia and some of the South American republics.
 Among Alaska cities, 461 Juneau ties took the trouble to register Obviously there were a great many who did not register. Douglas, Ketchikan, Anchorage, Sitka and Petersburg followed in that order with the number of registrants. Nearly all the communities in south eastern Alaska were repre- sented. Such better known cities in the interior as Nome, Palmer and Fairbanks were represented.
 Ranger Zach says that he does not know what proportion of the visitors normally register, but this is good indications of the wide spread appeal the Mendenhall Gla- cier makes to visitors.
