TELEPHONE LINES GOING IN ON NEW MIA. SYSTEM

Construction of the telephone lines for the new Matanuska Telephone Association dial sys- tenn is going along very well, according to Robert Partridge, MTA manager. The Palmer to Sutton line is nearly completed, he said and crews expect to start the Big Lake line this week.
 Line construction is being done by the Bonneville Con- struction Company of Idaho. Skilled personnel was brought in for the specialized work and a few local men hired for the labor.
 Home phone installations are about one quarter complete, Partridge said. Subscribers in the Butte area are complete and phones are being installed in the Springer and Farm Loop, Wasilla and Sutton areas. These phones will be put in operation late this fall when the system is completed and cut in. If at all possible, Partridge said, emer- gency phones will be hooked up in the various areas before that time.
 Members this week were mail ed general information bulletins which should answer the major ity of questions and help the subscriber determine what type service he desires, the manager sai.s

WILLOW ROAD OPEN; REPORTED VERY GOOD

A large number of picniekers and fishermen took to the Little Susitna road over the holiday, many of whom went on to Will low over the road that was off cially opened on the Fourth. ARC personnel have done con siderable work on the road this past season, clearing brush and filling in chuck holes. The drive to Willow is often described as one of the most beautiful areas in Southwestern Alaska. Outside of a short distance where there is still some melting snow, the road was reported in very good condition.
 Along the Glenn Highway, where lot of traffic was also seen, travellers were using the new Bailey bridge erected over Moose Creek by the Alaska Road Commission to take the place of the old bridge which was damaged two weeks ago. The Bailey was set up down stream from the temporary crossing that was put in by the ARC immediately after the ac- cident.

Area Forest Fire Now Under Control

Two forest fires just off the Glenn Highway, and a brush fire at Sutton the past two days have kept fire fighters busy.
 Tuesday night a fire near the Meekin Log Cabins was report ed to the Palmer Fire Guard Station and 26 fire fighters and two fire control aides are out on the fire which covers 10 acres and is now under control. This fire is located near Mile 112 on the highway, at the south fork of the Matanuska River The cause of the fire is not yet known.
 A second fire, located in the Long Lake area, is also under control. Two fire fighters and two fire control aides are on this fire which covered approximate 1y three acres. The fire started along the edge Of the lake and is believed to be the fault of fishermen.
 The fire in the Sutton area oc- cured when all available fire fighters were out on the other two fires. Fire Chief Joseph Gallant of Palmer took the eity's Civil Defense Jeep to the area where Sutton residents had ob- tained dozer and the fire was brought under control.
 Because of extremely dry conditions in the woods and along the highways, motorists. fishermen and campers are urg- ed again by William Adams, ELM forester. and the city fire chief, to exercise great caution in discarding matches and cigar cites, in building and extinguish- ing camp fires. and burning rub bish or brush.

Palmer Man DYoWns Af Wolverine Lake

Franklin Haumehild, 28, of Lazy Mountain, is believed to have drowned last evening when an eight=feot boat from which he and two companions were fishing, overturned in the small lake at Wolverine Lake
 According to a report given Territorial Police by James W. Moody Of Anchorage, he and his son Harold, IT, had been fishing with the victim all day About 7:45 pm. both Harold and Haum- child caught fish at the same time. Haumchild had boated his fish and was reaching with a dip net to help Harold get his fish when the boat tipped over, throwing the trio into the water, about TO feet from shore. Moody said that he had difficulty in reaching shore but saw the top of head in the water about 10 feet off shore and went back in and brought his son to shore. The youth was not conscious and Moody reported he also blacked out at that time. He said he re- viyed first and then his son. They could not locate Haum- child.
 The father and son made their way for a distance of about mile to where the Haumchild truck was parked but couldn't get it started because the keys were in the pocket of the miss ing man. David Cameron Of An chorage, who was fishing in Wolverine Lake, drove the two to 6he Haumchild home and then drove into Palmer where he re- ported the accident to Territori- al Police.
 A search of the area last night failed to produce the victim. The search was to continue to- day.
 HaumehiId is survived by his wife, who is expecting their third child within a month, and a daughter Susan, 5 and son Danny, 3. Mrs. Haumchild is in the Valley Hospital under the care of her physician. The ehil- dren are being cared for at the neighborhood homes of Mrs. Evelyn Harter and Mrs. Gust Sehreibl.
 The Haumehild family have lived in the Lazy Mountain area for the past four years. The vic tim was employed in the power house at the Coop.
 Members of the local Airmens Association and a crew from the Coop have been in the lake area today assisting in the search for Haumchild's body. Territorial Police plan to seek the services of the Skin Divers Association in Anchorage.

Alaska Lines New Trainships to Offer Easier Service

The Alaska Steamship Com pany's two proposed Trainships for the Seattle-Alaska run nov ed step closer this week with the announcement by D. E. Skin ner, Alaska Lines president, that invitations to bid on the vessels were issued to shipyards June go on behalf of the com pany by George G. Sharp Co. of New York, naval architects who designed the vessels. Date set for the opening of bids is Aug ust 28.
 The two Trainships will be the largest commercial vessels reg ularly operating out of Seattle. An indication Of size is their bale cubic of 100000 as com pared to the 475, ,000 of Liberty ship.
 Specifications call for geared steam turbo turbine propulsion machinery driving twin screws, and a sustained sea speed of 18 knots under Alaska operating conditions with full load of no raiIcars, 40, 40-foot trailers and 13,000 barrels of cargo oil in addition to the ships fuel. They will be able to operate on an eighty-day turn-around be- tween Seattle and Whittier, pro viding a sailing from each port every four days. Trainships will thus provide the fastest surface transportation service available between the United States and the vast interior of Alaska, bringing that area from one to three weeks closer to stateside sources of supply. and make a notable contribution to- the fur ther development of Alaska and maintenance of strong defenses here.
 The entire project, involving an investment in ships, termin- als and other facilities in excess of $20,000,000 will be privately financed without aid of govern ment subsidies or funds it was emphasized.

Color Trend Towards
Clear, Clean Pastels

A recent report. showing ac-
tual color swatches of the IA
best-selling colors for home
decorating, indicates that
pastel yellows. coralS, aquas,
blues and wood tones are
leaders.
Apparently Mrs. America is
demanding more and more
and more color-but the
lighter and cleaner the better.
Deep green's and browns are
out of the picture. Such
popular favorites as gray
green's and yellow-greens have
taken a nose dive.
The report was issued re-
Gently by the California Ink
Co. worlds largest producer of

alike. One Of these blues is

down. On the upward track
is the clean pastel blue: going
down is the old favorite-the
pleasing dusty blue.

Patients Guided Visitors
DR.. Patton declared the Ash
vile institution has set UP a
number of patient groups and
committees to take over many of
the responsibilities formerly held
by nursing and staff personnel.
He said group meetings of pa
tients are often attended by
social workers as well as nurses
and doctors.
One innovation. he reported,
was the creation of patient COM
mittees to help orient new pa
tientS.
During mental health weeks
certain patient committees were
used as guides for visitors. DR..
Patton said. The formation of
patient groups working together
under what amounts to a more
distant supervision by the staff.
brought about more interest IN
all aspects of their environment.
