.Ra: Alnskn Air Base
p. J. K, Washington


p. J. X, Washington
My dear Mrs. E. B.: In
answer to your inquiry about
Ellison Air Force Base, it is on
the Richardson highway, be-
tween IS mile and 81 mile
posts: that is, between two
gates, one IS miles south of,
and one 81 miles south of,
Fairbanks. Alaska. This is
north Of the Alaska Range.
which means dry climate.
Temperatures are phenom-
inally low but need not cause
you any discomfort. II your
husband is a pilot of heavy
aircraft you will probably have
first choice of available hous-
ing. But If you are civilian, it
is questionable whether you
can be quartered on. the post.
! spent the summer of "a on
this base at which time much
construction was underway,
with emphasis on officers
quarters. At this time many
pilots were in off-post quar-
tiers, and the command was
anxious to get them on the
base-this affected congress
sional appropriations for this.
purpose. The IS building pro-
gram was even more expan-
sive. I'm sure your housing
opportunities will be better
now, on or of base. than they
were during my stay there.
Every item of food avail
able in the Washington mar
kets viii also be available
thereafter In the base COM
misSarieS, or at the Piggy
Wiggly markets in Fairbanks
(25 miles away)-at twice the
price.
In 1864 Ellison was being
turned into q very permanent
base. The utilities engineer
shop was better equipped than
any military engineer outfit ]
have ever seen: that is, their
stove-shop, oil burner me-
chanics functioned promptly
In every Incidental emergency.
II you are driving you'll find
the Alaska Highway easiest to
travel at this time Of year over
the snow. which Is perfectly
dry-quite unlike any in this
part Of the world. Your car is
much more likely to suffer
than you are. And winteriz-
ing techniques applied to cars
are more far-reaching in the
north. The cost Of operating
your car in Alaska through the
winter is several times greater
than here-unless it is abb
solutely essential to your hus-
bands business. you might
well contemplate lacking it up,
debating the tires and remov-
ing its battery to heated stor-
age until spring.
Your clothing should be the
heaviest obtainable. The Army
quartermaster here would be q
good source for such apparel.
When you reach Alaska this or
better clothing win be more
available. In the old days it
would have been fur; now it's
more likely to be alpaca pile
material for everyday wear,
though best-quality fur viii
also be available.
Going to Alaska at any time
Of year is an adventure, by
any means Of travel. Take 1t
all very slowly. particularly
driving. Muster your best re-
sistance to surprise and you
are likely to get much more
out Of it than you put in. An
elderly Swedish lady friend Of
mine in Alaska once told me
that Eat no time in the process
Of rearing o large family was

as a tossup at Madison Square

Signing Of KrehoW
And Minoso Eases
HoIdouf Problem
by the Associated Press

Managers of several major
league baseball training camps
could heave sighs of relief as the
holdout situation eased today.
Baltimore ended its troubles
with the signing Of Pitcher Lou
Kretlow for $4,000. The Boston
Red Sox expected Catcher SAM
my White to put his signature
on a contract today after holding
out until the club approved his
playing basketball during the
off-season. The Red Sox also
signed George Susce. a rookie
pitcher.
Minnie Minoso, the No.
White Sox holdout who had
asked for a 100 per cent increase,
finally had settled for a boost OF
$500 that raised his salary to
a reported $32, 500, but there con-
tinued to be some disturbing fac
tors.
The biggest holdout Of them
all, the mighty Ted Williams,
still had not appeared at the Red
Sox camp in Sarasota, Fla. And
Frank Thomas, slugging outfield-
er, had not signed a Pirates con-
tract, although the Pittsburgh
club said they had one for $18,-
900 waiting for him.
Probably the biggest surprise
to come out Of the training
camps this year was word that
Earl Torgeson. the Phillies' vet
eran first baseman. played 135
games last year with a dislocated
right shoulder.
Torgeson said he stayed in the
lineup and kept his injury secret
because II didn't want to get the
name of a putty ballplayer." A
putty" baseball player is cne
who is injured often and unavail-
able for play.
Meantime, 1t was learned that

second baseman, has played his
last game. He was hit in the
head by a pitched ball last Au-
gust. And Wednesday he COL
