The Wrangell sentinel. (Wrangell, Alaska) 1909-current, 1952-10-31

To the People of Wrangel
Dear Friends,
Once again the Alaska Crippled
Children's Association is asking
for help in the form of the One
Dollar per year membership fee.
This year for the first time form
letters are being sent out through
the mail with an enclosed stamped
envelope for your convenience and
your membership card will be mail
ed to you if so desired.
The local chapter has not been
as active as We would like it to be
although to me it seems not 50
much lack of interest but rather,
lack OF time We have since decid-
ed that the membership drive and
the sale of the Alaska Crippled
Childrens cook books and almanacs
wiki be the sum total of the activ-
ity in the future
I would like to quote from a
bulletin sent out from headquart-
ers in Anchorage telling of the
trip into the interior of Alaska by
DR.. Moore, orthopedie surgeon at
Mt. Edgeeumbe; Dr. Elizabeth
Bishop, OF the Crippled Children's
division Of the Alaska Department
of Health and Miss Mary Jerome,
orthopedic nurse. In all, they visit
ed z6 villages, travelling by bush
airline and dog sled. They examin-
ed 297 people with Gripping con-
ditions. most of whom were child
rem. DR.. Bishop reported that OF
the 297. disqualification should be
provided for 20 of them immed-
lately if they are to be saved.
Miss Jerome's story, however,
should be shouted from the house
tops. She said she didn't think

Southeast Citizens
Hear keneipp Defend
His Traffic Record

Traffic Director George NJ. Ke-
neipp last night defended his rec
ord in the face of recent criticism
growing out Of his failure to in
stall traffic light at Southeast
intersection where child was
killed weeks ago by a hit-run
driver.
Mr.. Keniepp, referring to the
Anacostia citizens complaint, said
traffic signals and stop signs are
not in themselves the answer to
accidents. He produced statistics
which he said indicate that care
less drivers are the chief causes Of
traffic fatalities.
Despite the signalized inter-
section at Fifteenth and H streets
NV" the traffic director asserted,
there were SO accidents there last
YEAR"
Stands by Decision.
Mr.. Keneipp. whose resignation
was demanded recently by the An
acostia Citizens Association, re-
affirmed his stand on the inter-
section of Minnesota avenue.
Fourteenth street and Good Hope
road Sc, where the boy was
killed. He told a delegation from
the Anacostia group, meeting last
might with the Southeast Council
of Citizens Associations, that their
petition for a traffic light fails to
meet the criteria set up by his
Office.
John Fallon, president of the
AnacoStia group, who has led the
fight for Mr.. Keneipp's removal
as traffic director, accused him
of wasting too much time and
money on the engineering phase"
of the traffic program.
II think you have underempha-
sized the Importance of traffic
education and enforcement Of ex-
listing regulations" Mr.. Fulton
said.
| Mr.. Keneipp denied this, point
ing out that since he became
traffic director in 1946 the Dis
trict has won several national
safety awards.
"As for enforcement, that's out
of my Jurisdiction" he said. He
added, however, that $4,000 traffic
Iviolators were arrested last year
in the District, 1000 of whom had
their licenses revoked. All traffic
violators have to attend a traffic
school. he said.
Many Transient Drivers.
Mr.. Keneipp also remarked that
lat least half of the motorists in
the District are transients, thou
sands of whom have never taken
drivers tests.
II don't see how we can educate
these people," he told the South
east group.
Mr.. Fallon told reporters later
he was dissatisfied" with Mr..
|Keneipp's attempts to explain
away" his record as traffic direc-
tor and that he intends to take
the Anacostia associations de-
|nfand for Mr.. Keneipp's removal
to Congress IN January. The Com
missioners have rejected the de-
|mand.
The council met in the YMCA,

We lost that game with Alabama. 1t was

around the railroad station waiting to go

Things like that are enough to make man

Speaking of the Chicago Bears reminds me
of Bronco Naguski, the big fullback from
Minnesota. They used to say the Bronc could

There's story that once he hit goal post
with his head, bounced off and caromed into
the concrete part of the stadium. His team
mates rushed up to give him aid. The Bronc
shook his head and said, "I'm okay, but that
