Free Movies on
 Nut'I Kids Day

The Palmer Kiwanis Club and movieman Al Hagen combine forces again this year to bring free movies for children of the Valley in commemoration of Ma .ional Kids Day, Saturday, Sept. 2.
 Every year Kiwanis Clubs all over the country observe this special day CD to bring to under priviliged children some of the opportunities normally enjoyed by more fortunate boys and girls, CD to focus attention both )n the achievements of youth and on problems associated with ju- venile delinquency, and (3) to emphasize adult responsibility in the training of useful citizens.

Goat Hunter Drowned In Raging Matanuska After Boat Cap apsizes

Swollen and swift from recent rains, the glacial Matanuska Riv- CT claimed the life of an Anchor age hunter shortly after Il am. Monday as he sought to cross the river near Milepost 72 on the Glenn Highway.
 Daniel Hurst. B, taxi driver for Red Cab, drowned in a swift current of the rlver while four hunting comprehensive on either side of the river-stood by helpless in horror. He had suc- cessfully reached a sandbar after the boat capsized, tossing him out. Deciding to swim back to shore, he plunged into the current, later described by companions as the toughest water in the river with white caps two and three feet high. He disappeared within a few seconds.
 The body was not recovered. The Palmer-based Highway Pa trol, after fruitless efforts to re- cover the body, doubted that 1t would ever be found.
 With Hurst at the time of the tragedy were Miles Crocker, Pal mer area homesteader; Fritz Liv- esay of Cordova; and two women from Milepost 71-Caroline Cash man and Rene Nielsen. The party

HuntIey Still Awaits Confirmation On Marshal Appointment

Associated Press and United Press announced Tuesday Presi- dent Truman's nomination of Walter E. Huntley as United States Marshall of the Third Di- vision, but by noon today the man most concerned had received no confirmatory word.
 Action on Huntley's appoint ment has been long overdue, and the present senator from the Third District has repeatedly in- sisted that he won't count on the job until he has the actual papers confirming it.
 Even if President Truman has indeed nominated him, Walter Huntley knows we'll that there IS still another hurdle before the appointment is final. The nomi- nation must be confirmed by the Senate. Papers confirming Hunt ley's appointment may not be forthcoming until such action takes place.
 Meanwhile, Huntley is getting a little weary of keeping his fing- CTS crossed. It has been nearly a year since he was first recom- mended for the position and near

Contract Award
 Expected Soon on EkIufna Tunnel Job

Four bids received for each of readvertisement of the Ek1utna tunnel project August 10, were opened Tuesday, September II, in the Denver office of the Bu- reau of Reclamation's chief en- gineer.
 Indications were that con- tract would be let this time. The low bid on Schedule l, which called for a low level tunnel iden- tical to that advertised last May was made jointly by Peter Kie- wit & Sons Co.,, Coker Construc- ton Co.,, and Morrison-Knudsen Co.,, Inc. Their $17, ,348,865 bid was lower than the engineers esti- mate of $18,175,568. On June 25, two of the above companies-Kie- wit and Morrison-Knudsen-bid more than $4 million more on the same project. Their bid and all the other bids made at that time were rejected.
 Low bidders on Schedule 2, which called for a high level tun- nel, were Giraffe Callahan, Rhoa- des, and fner-Gordon. Their bid of $16,391, ,192 was slightly higher than the engineers esti- mate of $15,687,384.
 Under the terms of the read vertisement the award was to be made under one of the schedules as best suited the government at the time bids were opened.
 Byron K. Felkner, construction engineer in charge of the Eklutna project was in the Denver office this week for the opening of the bids and planned to remain there until the award was made.
 According to information re- ceived at the local headquarters, the low bidders on Schedule l in- dicated recently that if they won the award construction on the tunnel would begin almost imme- diately.

Ice Cream ut 180 Gallons Per Hour Flows From Co-0p's New Plant

Ice-cold, smooth, flaVortul ice cream started pouring out of the Coop creamery's new continu- ous process Vogt freezer at 4 a. m. last Thursday morning at the rate of three gallons a minute. Thursday nights production was 1000 gallons.
 Once the freezer gets started, it doesn't stop, according to the creamery manager, Clarence Bell. People who are filling ice cream cartons from the spout can't be excused to answer the telephone. When ice cream starts creeping out of the doors and windows of the creamery and spilling slowly but inexorably into the streets of Palmer, everyone will know that some careless employe is asleep at the continuous freezer switch. Perhaps that's one reason why Manager Bell says it will take two people to take care of the freezer. A more obvious req son is seen in watching operations involved-supplying empty car tons, filling them, fastening the flaps and placing filled cartons in the cold room. Bell figures that man and a girl should be able to handle these operations efficiently. The girls job hasn't been filled yet.
 The steady flow of ice cream climaXes more than a month of renovation to make room for the equipment and the actual installa- ton. William Mckay, an engineer from Seattle's Monroe Dairy, was in Palmer last week to help in- stall the machine.
 Ice cream mix is piped from huge refrigerated chambers over to the univat where the desired flavor is added and mixed in thoroughly. From the univat, the favored mix is piped through the barrel where it is frozen to the consistency of an extremely thick malted-just pourable and that's all. This luscious looking stuff comes out of two-inch spout and into the carton that someone should be holding there.
 Ice cream shortages should be (Continued on Page l6)

APW AIIots $500,000 for City Water System
City Council Solves Some Problems But Accumulufes Still More

Compelling need for city ordi- nances on which Council mem- bers are working doggedly to get on paper, was brought out in two petitions to the City Council last night.
 Everett Yohn, representing city food merchants, asked for the adoption of an ordinance licens- ing peddlers in order to protect the city and the merchants.
 He cited the recent instance of a trucker with a load of water melons during the Fair. First he unloaded as many as he could to the merchants, and then he parked his truck on busy cor her and proceeded to undersell his wholesale customers. And that wasn't all. He failed to col feet sales taxes, and he left a big heap of refuse on the city streets.
 Police chief Bernie Bouwens says he'll be waiting for that par ticular peddler when he comes back in a few weeks with load of apples. Fine for the misde- meanor of cluttering up the streets is a possible $100. Sales tax evasion would bring still another fine, or jail or both.
 Ralp Horton wanted to find out how his plans for a new building on the corner of Valley St. and the Wasilla Highway would stand up under the pro- posed new building code.
 Still another request hinged on the adoption of taxi ordinance The building Code ordinance IS already being drawn up by City Attorney Harold Butcher. Coun- cilman Chet Sandvik was com missioned to contact Butcher in Anchorage today to have taxi and peddler ordinances drawn up A peddler ordinance comparable to Anchorage's is contemplated; it would involve a license fee orohibitive to "fly-by-nights".

The Weep has two places in the
Capitol reserved for vice presiden-
tial use: His regular Office that
opens off the cloakroom and an
office in back of the old Supreme
Court room. The latter came in
for considerable use recently when
the Senate chamber was being
redecorated and the Senators were
meeting in the old Supreme Court
room, but afterwards it again be-
came a place where the Vice Pres
ident can retire to do some quiet
thinking.
During the past several weeks,
however, this room was turned
into such a high-class art studio,
that the Weep, himself, hardly
recognized it when he walked in.
Not one, but two artists were hard
at work in the room; not one, but
two mediums were being used.
While Alben Barkley posed for
Finnish-born sculptor Kalervo
Kallio, who will soon turn out a
bronze bust of him now that the
clay model is finished, Jane Bark
ley sat in a beautiful pink slipper
satin gown for her portrait by
Bjorn Egeli. 1t was an interesting
picture-the kind that any maga-
zine would have beaten records to
get-the kind, strong face of the
Kentucky statesman being repro
duced in clay under the deft
fingers of the son of the late presi-
dent of Finland and sculptor of
the famous Forrestal bust at the
