Korean War Vel 

sas tSssasss~as
 l The War Department has notified Mrs. Peter Chichenof that 1t has made positive iden tttication of the body of her son Pfc. Roy Chichenof who ] was reported missing in action on July 29, 1850 in Korea. A recent letter to Mrs. Cich enolf sud Pic Chichenoff' body was found near Kyor . Korea, earlier anI interre i Tn the Uni5ad Nations Cemetery at FanGgok. Later it was re- moved to Japan where the U. 5. Army has a scientifically equipped laboratory for identi- flcation purposes.
 Pfc. Chichenof was one of the first casualties of the Korean War. In July 1850, Mrs. Chichenoff was notified by telegram vf her son being missing. The usual letters fol- lowed.
 The most recent letter in- formed her that her sons body would be buried in a National Cemetery or where ever she wished. She plans to have him buried in Kodiak.
 Roy Chichenoff was born in Kodiak and attended school here. He entered the Army two years before the outbreak of the Korean War and was in Kodiak in June prior to being sent to Korea with the First Cavalry Division. He was 26 years old.
 He is survived by his mother, father, sisters and brother.

Pravada Ridicules Idea
Of Western Assurances
Of Non-Aggressive Intent

MOSCOW, p The Commun-
list party newspaper Pravda ridi-
culed today the idea of non-ag-
gression guarantees from the
western powers aimed at insuring
the security of Europe and the
Soviet Union.
The implication was clear that
Russia takes an extremely dim
view Of such guarantees viewing
them as little more than baited
trap. Thus it seems there is vir-
tually no chance Of the Soviet
Union entertaining such proposals
from any Of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization powers.

Alaska Statehood Depends On Solving
Its Land Problem, Senators Assert

WASHINGTON, R- Chairman
Butler R-Neb) and Sen. Gordon
R-Ore) of the Senate Interior
Committee told Interior Depart
ment officials Friday that state
hood for Alaska largely depends
on working out the territory's land
problems.
Both senators were quoted as
urging action to pave the way for
release of public lands for private
development to accelerate settle
ment of the territory.
Butler and Gordon met with
Under-Secretary Ralph A. Tudor,
Assistant Secretary Orme Lewis
and Director William c. Strand of
the Office of Territories and Gov.
B. Frank Heintzleman of Alaska.
Secretary Mckay attended the
meeting briefly.
Heintzleman and Gordon point
ed to land problems as one Of the
greatest obstacles to Alaskan de-
velopment.
The department said later in a
news release:
"There is no hope for Alaska
until we release some of the land"
Gordon was quoted. Il want state
hood for Alaska, but l want state
hood to work up there, too, and
we'll have to take off some of the
restrictions to make it work"
Butler was described as having
ECHOED Sen. Cordon's views on
statehood"
alaska must become a state,
but it would be mistake to place
it on its own before it is ready"
Butler said. II am for doing ev-
erything we possibly can to get
the territory ready"
Heintzleman described the land
situation in the territory as ''ter-
rible" and said some people wait
10 to II years for surveys and
patents. He said there were not
enough Bureau of Land Manage
ment employees in Alaska to ham
die the work load.
Butler said 'It is the response
bility Of the federal government
to speed up these surveys and get
the lands into individual owner
ship.
He also said legislation which
would permit Alaska miners to
sell gold at the world price would
stimulate the territory's growth.

The money was the proceeds
from license sales. Half of such
money goes to the territory.

Beta Sigma Phi
By CAROLINE READER

Beta Sigma Phis met last
Thursday at Bev Morgan's home.
With the repeating of the opening
ritual the meeting began. After
much pro and con discussion, the
girls voted to adopt a budget sys-
tenn for the first half of the year
whereby we estimate our total
expenses for the year and try to
raise money to cover these ex-
penses which will eliminate dig
ging into our own pockets or our
husbands pockets. First project
coming up is our box social for
members and guests. We are
stressing attendance at our af-
fairs and if a girl does not plan
to attend she must send her bas-
ket which some of the guests can
take care of. We are trying the
budget system for part of the
year to test its efficacy.
Maybelle Lennert will repres-
ent our chapter this year in the
Valentine Contest sponsored by
Beta Sigma Phi. Any sorority
girl may send in large glossy
picture and realize the possibility
of becoming Valentine Girl of the
year with her picture on the COW
er Of the February Torch" our
magazine.
Bev, Harriet and Vivian sue
cessfully completed their pledge
work last week and are now
ready to receive their Ritual of
Jewels Degree which will make
them full members in Beta Sigma
Phi. This formal affair will take
place Thursday evening in the
home of Terry Jackson.
We are happy to have Rita
Harper back with us again. We
missed her presence at our meet
ings as well as her helpful advice
and assistance. Nellie Sindalar
honored us by attending our
meeting. Unusual guest of the
evening was "Sharky" Rita's
cocker spaniel.
The cultural program was led
by Omie and true to her profess
sion we were given test that
proved how attentive we were to
last meetings program. Then a
number of the girls discussed
quotations of Plato, Confucius,
William Lyon Phelps, Boris So
kolov and others. We also tried a
little self-analysis and discussed
the qualities necessary in order
to take an impersonal view of
ourselves. Caroline gave a talk
on using a library and the help
fullness of the card catalog in
locating material. The Dewey
Decimal System of classifying
books was briefly described.
Vivian and Ruth Ray served
individual pies to each girl which
were a treat, and by 1870 pm.
everyone was vending her way
home.
