MIAMI, Fla. Mar. 11-Louis E.
Wolfson, the 45-year-old fin
ancial genius who heads a S235
million corporate empire and
who in the last "a months has

vehicles crossed the big span as
compared to 655, 5,039 in November
1856. This drop of 1898 vehicles

 Fl saw the first scheduled air. plane service to the States. I saw the passing of the passenger steamers to the territory. Having witnessed the past where it was a struggle just to get a simple mes sage thru, it is quite impressive to pass another milestone the Integrated Communication System and to see the, progress to a place where you can dial to reach almost any place." Sundstrom says.
 SundStrom has been a licensed radio operator sin4e 1895 and first came to Alaska with a Bureau of Fisheries patrol boat in 1889. Af- ter that he was with Pacific Alas ka Airways, a subsidiary of Pan American Airlines, which at that time flew a line from Fairbanks to Nome via Ruby, Nulato and Koyuk. He was stationed at the latter village, which boasted an airstrip and maintained communi- cations and weather station.
 Sundstrom recalls that the sin gle engine planes flying the Fair banks-Nome route tried to make 1t twice a week, but sometimes they'd have to sit down along the way and were weathered in for two weeks at a time.''
 While with Pan American, he spent two years in Nome in charge of communications, and several years with PAA in other Alaskan areas. During World War II he sailed with Alaska Steamship Co.
