ANCHORAGE-Three special
lists on arctic and subarctic build
ing and airfield construction have
arrived at the office Of the Alas
ka District Corps Of Engineers to
observe and test methods now
used by the Alaska district in
building on permafrost.
The noted trio are Dr. Arthur
Casagrande, consultant to the
chief Of engineers, US. Army;
Frank B. Hennion, airfields
branch, office Of the chief Of en-
gineers; and Kenneth A. Linell
Of the Arctic construction and
frost effects laboratory of the
Corps Of Engineers, Boston.
They will visit Bethel, Nome,
Kotzebue and other permafrost
areas where the Alaska District is
supervising military defense con-
struction in the arctic for the Air
Force and Army.
Accompanying them will be

Arctic Building Specialists Will Test
Alaska Engineers Permafrost Method

John Ireton, foundation specialist
of the Alaska District engineer
division; James @. Patrick, from
the North Pacific Division, and
Fred Kitzie Of the Fairbanks frost
effects experiment station. Their
findings and reports are expected
to be of material value to progress
in permanent arctic construction,
such as the far-north defense rim.
DR.. Casagrande summarized con-
struction on permafrost as trying
to build firm foundations on a
dirty cake of ice"
Don't thaw it-Freeze it! The
process works like mammoth set
Of refrigerator coils under the
buildings. Keep the permafrost
frozen solid and foundations will
stay solid"
This is not a simple process.
Permafrost is perpetually frozen
earth in various types of soil ex-
tending from one to 1900 or more
feet under an insulating blanket
Of tundra. Permafrost in silt may
contain 90 to 100 percent water in
the thin ice layers which interlace
the soil. When the tundra is brok-
en- heat flows into the ground
the permafrost melts-and foun-
dations slump.

Having first-hand information
on the recent helicopter freight
lift to the Ross-Adams property
from Kendrick Bay, we think
many Alaskan prospectors and
mining operators will be interest
ed in knowing what a helicopter
can do under favorable conditions.
The property is located at an
elevation of 1000 feet and a dis
lance of IA to 112 miles from
salt water. Eight and one-half
tons of drilling euipment and
supplies were lifted from a barge
to the camp in less than seven
hours.
Forty-seven trips were made,
and the heaviest loads were 40
pounds. Some of the loads were
placed on the side racks of the
'copter, but the heaviest were
slung underneath. 1t is obvious
that there were efficient ground
crews on both ends Of the run.

AUSTIN'S TITLE
is CHANGED TO
ACTING CAPTAIN

Boyd Austin, who has serv-
ed as Acting Chief of Port
Clinton police departm e n t
since Nov. % when George
Lemaster was removed from
office, will have his title
changed to Acting Captain" with
resultant decrease in pay of $51
a month.
Mayor Harold Jeremy said he
and Safety Service Director Walter
Wagener had conferred with solici-
tor Adair Wilber and a decision
was reached that an acting cap
tain" rather than an "acting chief"
would be adequate in the depart
ment to cover the situation pend
ing outcome of the Lemaster man
damuS suit against the city.
He said he had asked the Civil
Service Commission to give Mr..
Austin an oral non-competitive ex-
animation for the captain rating.
H. V. Frederick, Commission
chairman, said the captain exam
would probably be given Mr.. Aus
tin within the next week. He said
any appointment as captain result
ing from non-competitive exam
would have to be on a temporary
basis, according to Civil Service
rulings.
Following instructions from
Council last week, Mr.. Austin is
taking an outside trick of duty
along with handling the chiefs
clerical work.
Asked if as Acting Captain" Mr..
Austin still has full authority as
head of the police department,
Mayor Jeremy said: "Well, he's
still top man there"

CD TRAINING SET
AT CAMP PERRY

Camp Perry will become a vital
focus in the national Civilian De-
fense picture May 14-15 when
some 5000 persons will be coming
here for 4th Area School For
Combined Services, sponsored by
the Ohio Civil Defense Corps. Ohio
is the first state to have such a
school.
The Northwestern Ohio Volun-
teer Firemen's Organization, of
which Port Clinton'S Jack Riddle
is president, will participate in the
fire school and rescue sections
which are an important part of the
course.
Purpose of the school is to train
CD personnel in emergency opera
tions, based on specified training
courses, in order to increase the
operational efficiency of CD forces
within the state. Trainees will en-
roll basically from the 4th Area,
comprising the % counties of
northwestern Ohio but applications
from outside will be considered.
Each enrolee will pay his tr&yeling
expenses, but tuition, food and
lodging will be on a no-charge bas-
is. Instructors will be specialists in
the various services. Certificates
will be given by the Ohio Civil
Defense Corps.
An actual stimulation of an atom
bomb will be part of the course.
Fifteen different courses, covering
all phases of civilian defense, will
be available. Six of them designat
ed as open to women.

HUNT FOR CH|LD'S ATTACkER IS ON
SALK POLIO
VACCINE May
BE GIVEN HERE

Preliminary arrangements
for the possible administra-
ton of polio vaccine to all
first and second grade child
ren in Ottawa county are be-
ing made by DR.. James |.
Rhiel, county health commissioner.
Whether the program will be
carried out here, said DR.. Rhiel,
will depend on a report expected
to be released in April, which will
announce the results of the evalu-
alton study now being conducted
at the University of Michigan.
If the report shows that the vac
cine given to 100000 children last
spring was effective in preventing
paralytic polio, state health au-
thorities will issue the order to
proceed with administration of the
Salk preparation to all first and
second grade youngsters. 1t also
will be available to others, thru
physicians, at the same time. The
vaccine will be furnished by the
National Foundation for Infantile
Paralysis.
Vaccination of local children will
probably start immediately if the
report gives the go-ahead signal,
said Dr. Rhiel. The program will
be carried on at schools. Consent
of parents must be given in each
case.
AS much preliminary work as
possible has been already com
pleted by DR.. Rhiel and his staff,
so that the big program can get
underway with minimum of de-
Law if the pending report is favor
able.

80 days and fines totaIling $3.50
Friday on three charges. = COM
panion was cited to court on two
charges of being drunk and dis
orderly, and on carrying a con-
eealed weapon.
Police received a call last Thurs
day night of shooting near Erie
Tavern. Officer Harold MaSing, in
the cruiser, answered the call and
was assisted by Officer William
Keesor in bringing in Walter
Stacey, %, Erie-twp, and William
Clipps, %, Erie Gardens.
Police said Stacey fired the gun
inside Erie Tavern, blasting a hole
in the wall, and then shot across
the street toward the theater. The
gun was thrown beneath a car
parked On Madison-st as the police
appeared, and was retrieved Stacey
had purchased it short time

PLANS FOR new
HOSPITAL WING
TAKEN TO STATE

Magruder hospitals badly need
ed new wing is one step closer to
actual beginning
Plans for the $3.50 900 addition
have been taken to Columbus by
hospital superintendent Florence
Specht and John Richards of the
Toledo firm of architects. They
are now in the hands of the state
department of health, for approval
and possible suggestions of inn
provements. But at first glance,
officials expressed high approval
of the double corridor" idea in
corporated in the addition plans.
Attending meeting of the Ohio
Hospital Association at Cincinnati
last week, Miss Specht learned that
Magruder is fifth on the list for
federal funds which are being
sought to provide $4,000 Cor a
third of the estimated construc-
tion cost.
A recent survey showed that
this area has only 25 percent of
the number of hospital beds need
ed, and this is expected to be
factor in a quicker appropriation
of federal aid
The $300,0O0 goal set for the
expansion fund locally came to
within $4,000 or so of success,
and it is believed there will be
no difficulty in raising this amount
once actual construction begins.
Pledges are coming in well, with
about $150,O00 already turned in.

mately 100 per year, to a total of
approximately 2300 in 1864.
Over this period, enrolment in
