MAYBE FIRST VOTE"
HELPED GIVE
MINNESOTA TO IKE

OF course. we have no way Of
knowing but Minnesota went to
Gen. Ike Eisenhower and maybe
the vote the first in her life for
President. of 93-year-old Mrs.
Aldena Leonard of Minnesota
helped give him that state. After
all, ones vote is ones secret.
At any rate. its no secret that
Mrs Leonard, sister of Mrs. Della
Coulter of Wrangell, cast her
first ballot for a President of the
United States for Minneapolis
daily. in its October p issue,
carried a news story and picture
of the event
Mrs. Leonard is a patient at
the Bethesda Invalid Home where
the head nurse, Sister Gertrude
Carlson decided that the homes
so residents should be given a
chance to exercise their right of
franchise. She arranged for all
who wished to cast absentee bal
lots. Mrs. Leonard was one who
wished.
Mrs. Leonard, another sister
who has now passe away,
and Mrs. Coulter, the youngest of
the three, were all born in Min
nesota. Mrs. Coulter came to Al
aska but Mrs. Leonard has spent
her entire life in her home state.
Asked by a Minneapolis report
er why she never had voted, Mrs.
Leonard said
''Well, you see, had four
children and I was kept so busy
through the years with house
hold duties that l Just never had
extra time to participate in polit-
ical life"
Her three daughters and one
son all live in the Twin Cities
and recently gave a party to eel
citrate Mrs. Leonard's 93rd birth
day. Among those attending were
seven grandchildren, IA great
grandchildren and 73-year-old
nephew.
Mrs. Coulter last saw her sister
in 1892 when she visited her for
mer home in Minnesota.

POSSIBILITIES FOR
ALASKA G0gERNORsvTP

SEATTLE - With the election
of a Republican President bringing
speculation as to who may be APP
pointed as the next Governor of AL
aska, the Seattle Times said The
names of b. Frank Hpfutzleman
and Ralph Lomen have been men,
toned as possibilities.
Gruening's term expires i'm April,
just after the end of the Territorial
legislature
Heintzleman, Regional Forester
in the Territory for many years,
has been hailed the past few years
for his efforts in bringing the pulp
industry to the Territory.
Lomen is a member of a long
time Nome family.
The Times also said that "best
guesses'' are that Gruening will re-
sign. The Governor of Hawaii said
Wednesday that he planned to do
so when Eisenhower becomes Pres
ident on January 20.
Gruening Tenure FASTENED
EisenhoWer's election as Presi-
dent unquestionably has FASTENED
the end of Ernest Gruening's ten
ure as Governor of Alaska.
The Territorys top political post
is not elective as are the governor
ships in the As states. The position
is filled by appointment of the
President. subject to confirmation
by the Senate.
Robert Reeve. unsuccessful Re
publican nominee for Alaskan dele
gate to Congress, has quoted Eisen-
hover as saying he would name an
Alaskan to the goyernorship if ell
ected The General never denied it
In any event. Gruenings depart
ure appears imminent He has been
Territorial Governor for - years.
First named to the job Dec. g.
1899, he has been reappointed
twice for four-year terms. The last
appointment was confirmed by the
Senate April s, 1919. Only if
Gruening extends Eisenhower his
resignation as a matter of courtesy
could he be removed before his
present term expires in April.

GRETA MENZEL

at the school for the second pro-
gram of the 1928 season.
Chosen as the most gifted and
personally charming among several
leading sopranos Miss Mcneil will
present a program here selected for
its popularity and general interest
To audiences where she has sung in
concert From a repertoire of dram
attic opera arias, Latin American
folklore and concert songs familiar
to all her program can be looked
forward to as one of the enjoyable
musical events of the year. Schu-
bert, Puccini Mozart and Tschai-
kowsky will be featured on her
program as well as the we'll known
modern songs, at Dawning," and
Tales of the Vienna Woods"
Following the Greta Mcneil con-
cert, the next artists will be Pierre
Samoan, French pianist, hailed as
one of the few great composer-art-
lists today, and Raymond Manton,
tenor, at whose debut the entire
audience of many thousand in the
San Francisco Civic Auditorium
stood and cheered the singer.
Piano Fund $500
WrangelPs piano fund has now
grown to over $500 with addition
al concert season ticket purchases,
Mrs. John o. Bangeman, ticket
chairman, said. She urged that
those who have not yet purchased
season tickets do so before Thurs
days concert as three concerts can
yet be heard for the low rate of
$3.50 whereas single admissions
are $3.50 and all income now from
ticket sales goes into the piano
fund. Anyone wishing to make
a contribution to the piano fund,
whether buying tickets or not, will
be most welcome to do so.
The new piano will be kept at
the school and will be a distinct
asset to the community. Mrs.
Bangeman said Maxim Schapiro
told the committee he can usually
find a very good used concert piano
at nominal cost sometimes from an
estate and when Wrangell. is ready
to purchase one he will be glad to
be of help. 1t is estimated the cost
would be about $1,0O9. Schapiro
helped Juneau get a concert grand
a few years ago. He got it from
the Baldwin Company at wholesale
price and the Baldwin people even
paid the freight to Juneau.
so plan to buy a concert ticket
now while you are enjoying the
concerts" Mrs. Bangeman urged.
AT the same time you will be con-
tributing to a lasting and worth
while community investment"

but Sadusky can't get him out
for the team. Roger is president
of the student council and this to-
gether with other school activities
is keeping him off the gridi1on.
Helping Sadusky are coaches of
three other sports at B-CC: Wey-
mouth Judkins. track: Bob Fin
negan, basketball, and Tom Day,
baseball. They and the new coach
are working hard with inexperi-
enced boys. some of whom have
never played the game before.
Look for the Barons to get better
as the season progresses.
B-CC has a rough schedule,
meeting Northwestern and West
ern. in addition to its Montgom-
cry County rival Montgomery
Blair, which seems powerful this
season. Last years Baron record
was 3-4-1 and the 1852 mark de-
ponds mainly on how much block
ing the green line can give to
Corse for his excellent running
and passing.

AL Sadusky, a former George
Washington University line coach,
is trying to build forward wall
at Bethesda Chevy Chase to go
with what is probably the best
schoolboy passing combination in
the area.
The BaronS are an inexperi-
enced team under a new coach
Ray Fehrman is now guidance
counselor at B-CC-but they have
Bill Corse and Jack Vance.
Cofse. at feet 8. 155 pounds,
does everything as well if not bet
ter than many bigger backs. Tail
back on Sadusky's single-wing. he
runs, punts and passes. but it is
In the pitching department that
Bill excells. Even the teams which
beat the Barons last year had
nothing but praise for Corse's
long, accurates heaves, and Bob
Callahan, BladenSburg coach, was
busy practicing his pass defense
after the Blades 1910 victory over
B-CC last week. Corse did every
thing but score with his passing.
Vance Is Top Receiver.
On the receiving end of Bills
aerialS most of the time is Jack
Vance, a 6-3. 19O-pound end.
Vance will give any team trouble
when CorSe is passing. jim
Pickett, 160. on the other end,
Is a good receiver, too. so pass de-
tense is the No. l item on the
practice schedule for teams play
ing B-CC.
