There were mostly silver heads
among the people at the Golden
Age Hobby Show when it opened
yesterday in the lobby of the
Commerce Department.
More than 200 entrants strolled
about looking at each others ex-
hibits or stood proudly by their
own. They are all men and
women over 60 who live in the
District and nearby areas. And
most of them can say they're
grandparents.
when you've raised a family
and have only yourself. you've
got to have more to do than just
sit around and think about YOUR
SELF" said one elderly grand
father.
And that's the purpose of the
nobny show put on for the first
time this year by The District Re-
creation Board and the United
Community Services. They want
to recognize and encourage the
activities of elderly people and
help to achieve a BROADER COM
munity understanding of their
needs.
II Works by Painter.
Louis Frederick Haynes, SO, of
6215 Forty-second avenue. Hyatts-
vile. has been devoting his time
to oil painting since he retired
from the Government Printing
Office seven years ago.
Among the II works he has
entered is a striking portrait of a
young girl with long, flowing,
blond hair.

did it by imagination-really," :"
Mr.. Haynes laughed. "You know,
I've been looking at pretty girls
now for so years."
Another painter, Arthur Neu-
man, who is SO. of 3700 Massa-
|chusetts avenue NV, started off
last year by creating colored pic
lures with a needle and thread.
He has two of them on exhibit,
along with several oils.
II never did any artistic work
before last year." he said. "It all
happened when I went with my
wife to the embroidery shop. She
knits a lot, so I decided to get
some thin yarn and start to
work"
1t takes Mr.. Neumsn from 80
to 40 hours for picture like
that.
Then one day." he said, "a
friend saw me at the embroidery
shop and said I ought to paint.
She sent me a canvas and some
linseed oil. I never had a
lesson. but started right in"
Not ALI Painting.
Painting is only a part of the
show, which occupies the entire
lobby, several smaller rooms and
a couple of halls.
In one part of the lobby is O
collection of Indian relics and
hand-painted pottery.
Nearby encased In glass, is q
piece of the dress Mrs. Lincoln
wore the night the President was
mortally shot. That belongs tc
r. Bentley Thomas, n. of Ashton
Md. who also has an origina,
pass to the trial of Guiteau. the
assassin of President Garfield
and other relics of the past.

out to help people in his old age.
1T all started" he said, when
radio program was advertising
ways of preventing accidents. And
some of the gadgets are pretty
expensive.
So Mr.. Merritt sat down and
began making safety devices. At
his booth he has a device fol
keeping rugs from slipping. "It's
really simple. All I did was sew
a jar rubber to some heavy mate
rial and sew one to each corner
of the rug"
He also has jars of sand, salt
and sawdust to keep old people
from slipping on wet pavements.

TENAkEE FLOAT
FIRST AVIATION
PROJECT FINISHED

!. Completion of the first project
undertaken by the Alaska Depart
ment of Aviation since its creation
last year, was announced today by
George S. CTony) Schwamm, de-
partment director.
u A seaplane landing float and ap-
proach at Tenakee was accepted
by Schwamm upon its completion
and being moved into place not III
minutes prior to his landing there
while on a tour of inspection OF
Southeast Alaska seaplane ports.
The float was constructed by
flames Paddock of Juneau. one OF
three emergency projects gotten
under way in the Federal Alrpor
Aid Program sponsored by the Civil
Aeronautics Administration.
Construction of seven airports
throughout Alaska and IA seaplane
bases, mostly in Southeast Alaska
are on the departments program in
conjunction with the program. Costs
of construction are divided so that
the federal government pays 7e
percent of the cost, with the Ter
ritory paying Is percent.
Funds for the department, part
7Aof the Alaska Aeronautical and
Communications Commission, are
derived from the gasoline tax.
HOOnah Float
A float at Hoonah will be ir
place in about 10 days, Paddock tolc
Schwamm. 1t is under construction
at Tenakee now, and will be toweo
there and be tied up with its ap-
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1950-05-10

proach at what is known as the
Standard Oil dock. This is the sec
ond float constructed under the
emergency clause of the program
allowed by the C.A.A. Na
A third float at Metlakatla has
not yet gotten under way, because
of technical difficulties in applying
contract. An organized village, the
town may not sign contract to
construct a float, Schwamm ex-
planned, but it must be let to an in
dividual under C.A.A. regulations.
This problem has stymied con-
.struction, but something is hoped
to be worked out soon, he said. The
work will be in combination with
the highway department.
All the emergency floats were not
let to contractors by calling for
bids, but negotiated in order to
save time and get them under way.
C.AA. officials cut procedure IN
order that the old floats-mostly
half sunk and in poor condition
might be replaced SO soon as pos
sible.
Bid Openings
Bids for the ID float landings will
be opened May II in Schwamm's
office in Anchorage, and will be
awarded as speedily as possible. he
said. After the awards are made,
Schwamm will return here to make
a more detailed survey OF float
conditions throughout the area.
Many repairs are on the depart
ment's agenda this season, as well as
new work, he said. Floats at Peters,
burg, Wrangell, Klawok and other
sites will be repaired and made
more disable as soon as possible, he
said.
I'VE have a policy OF installing
new floats to replace the worst ones
at first" Schwamm explained, land
will continue in that manner until
the program is complete. Thus-by
this staggering-they won't wear
out all at once"
Schwamm was flown to Sitka and
other points while on his tour here
by Sheldon Simmons, executive OF
Alaska Coastal Airlines.
Names of towns in which new
floats will be built following open
ing of bids are: Ketchikan, Craig,
Hyder, Sitka, Angoon, Gustavus,
