Nome CAP Reactiyates and Plans Are
Made For Cadet Exchange Program

A meeting of Civil Air Patrol
was called Wednesday evening at
the home of Maj. George Weyer,
acting commander of the Nome
Squadron. In addition to Maj. and
Mrs. Weyer, members present
were Les Bronson, Charles Stack,
Alice Hudson, Clint Gray, and
Dan Berrettini.
The meeting was the first of
the reactivated Nome Squadron,
and in the future, meetings will
be held the second and fourth
Thursdays of the month starting
at 800 pm. For the present, or
until a suitable headquarters is
located, meetings will be held at
the home Of Maj. Weyer, 663
First Ave.
Weyer announced that a mail
box had been rented so that any
correspondence with the CAP may
be addressed to Box 337, Nome.
Weyer outlined the reason and
functions of CAP and told of his
plans for recruiting a corps of Of
ficers to get the squadron operat-
ing as soon as possible. Present
plans call for about fifteen active
officers and members.
Civil Air Patrol is a service
organization beside being an aux
iliary Of the Air Force and its
main functions fall into three
classifications: Air activities, the
Cadet program, and Communica-
tons. Due to local conditions,
for the present at least, the CAP
will confine itself mainly to the
Cadet program and to organizing
a flying program.
Particular emphasis will be
placed on recruiting young people
Of high school age to join the
Cadets and actively participate
in that program SO that they may
be eligible to participate in the
encampments and exchange pro-
grams next year.
The Alaska CAP exchanges
Cadets with other CAP units in
The Nome nugget., 1954-06-11

the States and with like units in
foreign countries: Canada, South
America, and Europe. Under this
program Nome Cadet will be
a guest of the Michigan and IL
linois Wing Of CAP for a 15-day
tour of the Midwest in July.
Another example of CAP ser
vice was demonstrated last week
when four Cadets were taken to
DR.. Jiaroli, Nome Field dentist,
and given dental examinations.
They were. Geri Fagerstrom,
Gladys Drake, James Roth, and
Chuckie Fagerstrom.
A group of Girl Cadets from
the States on exchange to the
Alaska Wing at Anchorage is ex-
pected to make an overnight visit
to Nome this summer.

Alaska Wing officers from An
chorage will visit the Nome
Squadron. Plans now are to en-
terrain the visitors with a dinner
at the Boring Sea Club with a
roundtable discussion of Civil Air
Patrol to follow.

After Watson Roper's discussion
of Modern Trends in Law Enforce
ment" at their regular luncheon
meeting yesterday, RotarianS were
of the opinion that crime very de-
finitely doesn't pay.
Roper. who has had many years
experience as an FBI agent, told
the club members that it was en-
couraging to see that all over the
United States, law enforcement
forces were taking advantage of
training in "criminalistics"
use of modern scientific devices
and together the picture of crime
from small bits of evidence.

He said FBI files and labora-
tories are available to help solve
crimes in any part of the country,
and that FBI technicians can an
alyze a blood stain and tell wheth-
er it is human or animal. They
have the facilities to identify bombs

Age Groups, Sea
D
Of Sufferers
Told Natl Group

There have been no polio
cases among teenagers here
this year and more females
than males had the disease.
Those facts were contain
ed in a report sent today to
the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis by DR.. c.
w. Morrison, county health
officer.
The report details the polio sit
uation' here so far this year.
1.-THE age groups effected" reads
the report, reveal some interest
ing comparisons.
Age Brackets
''Those under age of 10 and those
ranging in age brackets from 20
to 80 suffered an incidence of 13
case each, while no case occurred
among the teenagers. There were
five cases in the 30 to 40 year
bracket and two cases in the group
over 40"
Thirty three polio case have been
reported here this year and none
of them have been Negroes.
The last case was reported three
weeks ago yesterday.
The youngest polio patient was
nine-day-old infant. The oldest
was a 49-year-old housewife, the
report shows.
Of the 10 females who had the
disease, Is of them had the paraly-
tic type of polio. However, only
five of the IA male patients had a
paralytic form of the disease.
Of the total of 80 cases this year,
% of them were Navy personnel
or Navy dependents; nine we're
civilians; and one each was report
ed from the Army and Coast
Guard.
&C NEGOTIATIONS
Referring to the mass GG inocu-
lations May 6 and 7, the report
says gamma globulin has ap-
parently been of distinct value in
reducing the incidence of polio
myelitis.
In conclusion, the report states:
= THE Monroe County Health
Department acknowledges with
deep gratitude the roles played
by the American Red Cross, the
National Foundation for Infantlle
Paralysis, and the Florida State
Board of Health.
I'm completing the mass inocula'
ton, the experience gained in a
similar procedure carried out IN
October, 1853, under the meticu
lous planning of the late D. r
]. Dalton proved of inestimable
value and made the task infinitely
easier.
