Men and Women Take Valdez, Cordova In Ti-CitY Basketball Jamboree

Driving conditions on the Rich ardson were excellent, it was agreed. Those who made the trip say the highway is in better con- dition now than it normally is in midsummer. They admit that temperatures were cool in spots Ca minus 50 at Copper Center) and that the wind blows at Valdez, too Ca freight trailer was over turned in a Valdez street when gust of wind slipped up on it)
 Cordova, which also partici- pated in the tri-town basketball jamboree, made the trip to Val dez by power barge.

We couldn't even pay for our cigarettes while we were there, and they loaded us down with souvenirs to bring back. All in all, we had one of the finest trips we've ever made" <"

 This famous wind of '50 blew so hard and long that it severed telephone lines like silken hair nets. It snatched the roof from the vegetable grading heous on the Railroad docks and then caved in it's walls. It filched gar bage cans and oil barrels that weren't battened down, and it twisted hood covers from auto mobiles and tossed them up to shatter the windshields of those vehicles.
 It packed snowdrifts so hard that caterpillar tracks could bare ly dent the surface of the snow that was piled eight feet high in some places. It filled roads deep with the cement-like snow and left farm fields as bare as early spring.

The Tale Of The Matanuska And How It Blew In 1850

The big wind of 1950-it blew and blew and blew. It blew for l5 days in the Matanuska Valley. For eleven days it blew from the north and it piled all the snow of the fields in Valley roads. Road clearing equipment swept it away. Then for four more days it blew from the east and it swept the snow right back in the road again.
 This wind that blew was one of no respect for persons, either. It snatched hats and tossed them over buildings. It blew a small girls valentines right out of the box in which she carried them home, and when she went to gather back the first missing one or two, then it blew until the box she put down was empty.
 This was the wind that stole the hat of F. L. Kerzie, Coop auditor, as he crossed the tracks to board bus and leave this Val icy behind, with no regrets. And when he would have reclaimed

RPOnATION IS
 ALMOST ESSENTIAL AHA DIRECTOR SAYS

Valley residents who attended a housing meeting last night to hear E. Glen Wilder, Alaska Housing Authority executive di- rector, found that housing and incorporation are so completely entwined in Alaska that Palmer isn't likely to get one without the other.
 MT. Wilder opened the meeting by sketching the. background of the Alaska Housing Act, which he said had simplified the re- quirementS for Federal Housing Authority to make it easier to serve Alaska, and which made it possible for the services of the Federal National Mortgage Ad- ministration to be extended to the territory.
 The director explained in de tail methods by which AHA may lend money for construction of housing to private sponsors, or may undertake that construction itself, if no private sponsor is available.
 Since AHA is limited in it's lending power to dealing with corporations only, he told how private individuals might band together in type of cooperative and make application for AHA aid for construction of homes.
 However. he made it clear that the many problems of utilities required by FILA make it almost to effect such con in any incorporated area, where utilities do not exist, or where existing utilities can not be proved to be adequate for future needs.
