Alaska Is In Good Position To Study Sputniks

FAIRBANKS, R-Alaska is in the same preferred" position to study Sputnik II as it was when Sputnik was launched.
 Scientists at the University of Alaska Geophysical Institute dis closed this yesterday after moni- toring seven consecutive passes of the 1,1OO-pound satellite which is circling the globe at 18,000 miles per hour.
 The radio transmissions on 20 me. and 40 me- are being recorded and the ''Doppler nulls" timed very accurately.
 The information on passage of the dog carrying satellite is being sent to the Vanguard control cen ter to add to the accumulation of United States information on the orbit
 ssWe are very close to the top of the orbits for Sputnik I and II which allows us to obtain these consecutive passes that the people in the states are not able to ob- tain," a spokesman for the insti- tute said.

Scandinavian Airlines Asks Permanent Right To Fly Polar Route

WASHINGTON R-S we d n, Norway and Denmark proposed Wednesday that their joint Scan- dinavian Airlines be granted per- manent right to fly a polar route to the American West Coast.
 The three countries made this request at the opening of commer- cial aviation talks with delega- tion representing the United States.
 Their spokesman suggested the three years of successful experi- ence in flying the polar route war ranted making such flights per- manent.
 Scandinavian Airlines has been flying to Los Angeles on three year temporary experimental ba- sis as well as making flights to New York and Chicago.

F'robisher Bay and Nome are In almost the exact same parallel of latitude, Nome being just a. bit farther north. Climate-wise they are quite similar. Here, however, there seems to be nothing but rock. The low, rolling hills seem to stretch for many miles in all directions. The highest in this area is some TOO feet. Only in few isolated spots does there seem to be any vegetation and that, of course, is tundra.
 The village and the airport, which is a part of a rather large US. Air Force base, are located at the headwaters of FrobiSher Bay. We are told that this bay was discovered in 1876 by Sir Martin Frobisher in his search for the northwest passage. Unlike Bering Sea, this body of water has a wide tide action-up to 40 feet and in that respect reminds one of the Cook Inlet area.
 Although the bay freezes, the ice is continually broken by each tide. I understand that boats can- not get in here before early Aug ust. There is a freighter lying irl the bay now and still discharging cargo. Meantime a great deal of ice is forming along the shore.
 While we have had a few cold days and some strong winds, the lowest the temperature has fallen is to plus 2. Today (Oct. 26) it is 30 and calm. We have experienced a few blizzards with winds to 60

W. o. Tate, 73, Dies After Illness

W.O. Tate, aged 73, well known resident and self styled "ivory carver" passed away Wednesday night following a short illness.
 He is survived by two daugh- ters living in Nome, Berda, and Marie Heagle, and two sons in service, Melvin and Glenn. Other children and grandchildren from previous marriages reside in the states.
 His funeral is tentatively set for Monday afternoon from the Community Methodist Church, pending the arrival of Glenn from Lincoln, Neb., and Melvin from Blaine, Wash.

 Meantime, PAA is constructing a staff house which will domicile the permanent personnel, 1ay-over crews, mechanics and the commls- sary people. It is scheduled for completion early in December This building will feature flush toilets-the first on Baffin Island and another PAA first.
 People of All Nations
 We see people of all nationali- ties and who speak all languages. They come from all corners of the earth, it seems, and it is ap- parently the common thing to travel from Australia or India or Honolulu or Los Angeles or Ma nila to London or Paris or Rome or Madrid Just last week we had large delegation of Indians en- route from San Francisco, where they had attended an information al industrial machinery exhibition back to their homes in New Delhi.
 I certainly did not imagine that when I came here I would ever meet anyone knew. However, it seems that on nearly every plane there has been someone with whom I am acquainted. Most of them are company employees or travel agents, but nonetheless I do enjoy talking with them and hear ing about their travels. The most pleasant surprise came when I met Chuck and Marguerite Nee) West enroute to Madrid. This cer- tainly fires ones urge to travel and see what is beyond the hori- zon.
 Keeping In Touch Through the NOME NUGGET, which Betty has been so good about sending, have been able to keep fairly well posted on the happenings in Nome.
 I was particularly pleased to note in a recent issue that the NWA Chamber of Commerce is to be represented in Juneau. This will help up great deal and am sure that with the support of the other divisions, Fairbanks partic- ularly, we will be able to secure our position insofar as Highway 97 and other road projects are concerned. We must never falter in our objective toward accom- plishing these two goals They will mean more to Nome than anvthino else

SNAIL STARTS FIRE

PADIHAM England, R-A snail set fire to Miss Mary Hartley's house yesterday.
 The moist little gastropod mol lusk crawled into an electrical socket, causing a short circuit.
 Damage to the house was minor ito the snail, total.

brightly painted and apparently well insulated. Since it is impos- sible to have basements because of the permafrost and rock, the houses here are set on concrete blocks few inches off the ground.
 On some of the buildings here on the base I notice that the doors are trimmed both top and bottom to prevent them from binding and many of the buildings tilt in several directions, reminding me very much of Nome's eternal struggle against the frost.
 The water, which by the way is very tasteful, comes from lake nearby and is pumped from a tank truck into the buildings. Oil stoves are used to heat and cook. The sanitary system is quite sim liar to Nome's-not of the flush variety.
 The government maintains a very modern little school and a small hospital for the Eskimo peo- pie. Instead of carving ivory like the Alaskan Eskimos do, these people carve a sort of soapstone. As yet I have not seen any sam pies of their fur products.
 The Hudson's Bay store is the only one here. It seems to stock only necessities and there is no fresh produce flown in. There is air service twice week from Montreal some 1,2OO miles to the south.
 Fueling Stop for PAA
 The Pan American planes use Frobisher for a fuel stop on the flights to and from the west coast and Europe. The route lies in a direct line from Seattle. San Fran cisco and Los Angeles to Frobish- CT, across the lower end of Green land to Prestwick, Scotland, and thence to London and Paris.
 While we do not yet have any facilities for the passengers dur ing the hour fuel stop they do not seem to mind. In spite of the cold nearly all of them deplane and walk around or stand in the shell ter of the big hangar. It gives them a chance to stretch and they like to send cards from Baffin Is- land, the worlds sixth largest.
 The Department of Transport, the equivalent of our CAA, is building a waiting room in one corner of the hangar. They are also working on a facility that will take care of the passengers in

mph but they lasted only a few hours.
 Discharging Freight a Chore
 Discharging cargo from ships is quite a chore. There are no dock ing facilities. Landing craft such as the Navy used in it's amphibi ous warfare during the Pacific campaign are used to get the car- go from the ships to the beach. The beaches are very rocky. There the freight is removed by cranes and placed above the high tide mark. It is hard work indeed, par ticularly at this time of year.
 The tanker which was in recent ly left about 8,O0O,OOO gallons of gasoline plus lubricating and fur mace oils. This is pumped from the ship to a stand on the shore through flexible hose. From there it is boosted to the tank farms some distance away. It is certain ly a quick and economical way of handling fuels.
 The Town of Frobisher
 We visited the town of Frobish- CT last week. It is quite a small place with population of 103. While it is predominately Eskimo, there are some white people living there. They are government en- ployees.
 This village was built in 1855 by the Department of Nortbern Affairs, which evidently admins ters this part of Canada and quite possibly is equivalent to our Blu reau of Indian Affairs of Alaska Native Service.
 The homes which they built for the Eskimo people are fine look ing places, all on the same plan,
