WEATHER CHIEF TOPIC OF CONVERSATIONS

New Englanders in the valley region must feel right at home this week with the abrupt chang es in the weather that have been experienced the past few days.
 On Wednesday of last week the official weather report stated 19 inches of snow on the level in Palmer. By Sunday morning a great majority of this snow has turned to moisture and was locat- ed in a score of city-dwellers basements. The quick thaW caught most home owners un- aware and presented problems for the street department. The preview of Spring came to halt Monday night when snow fell and again Tuesday night when even more of the winter white came down. Driving was hazardous up until about noon Wednesday: many office workers were late in punching the time clock and several rural route school chil- dren got an extra day off when bus drivers were unable to reach their rendezvous points.
 Whats the weather going to be like from now on? Alaskans have saying for laymen who try to predict the weather :. ".. must be a cheechako or dang fool.

MOOSE BRING NATIONS ATTENTION TO PALMER

The city of Palmer and the Ma tanuska Valley came in for na- tional publicity this past week when an Anchorage United Press correspondent sent out story on wild moose on the rampage" in Palmer.
 Interesting letters ard clippings are being received by valley 4dwellers from their families in the States. Some of the folks at home are worried others, who have visited the territory, are treating it with question. One amusing re- action was received shis week by MT. and Mrs. Charles Wilson from a friend in Oregon who sent along a clever Rube Goldberg Moose Trap to take care of invading .mooses in the vicinity of Palmer, Alaska, drawing the blue print was complete with trip ropes, slid ing doors, a manager for fancy food, such as lettuce, cabbage, peas, etc., and a 500-pound moose slugger.
 Police Chief Bouwens, who was featured in the UP release, has received suggestions from the states on ways to handle a moose problem.
 
 Locally, Jack Hermons assisted by the Boy Scout troops, has been knocking down small trees and brush to make feeding easier for the young calves. By increasing their feed in the outlying areas, Hermon's project, which has the backing of the Sportsmen, and others, will help keep the moose in the woods and out of the back yards of home owners.
 Al Hjellen, Wasilla correspond eft for The Frontiersman, report ed he's now a member of that select fraternity. A moose ran out of Mommsen's driveway up Was fila way and smack-dabbed into the side of Hjellen's car, smash ing two windows.
 Anyhow, there's one sure thing about the moose in Palmer, they won't De within miles next fall during hunting season.
