At it's meeting held in Ketchi- kan September 15-19, the Alaska School Boards Association set down a group of recommendations which would affect the organiza- ton of the educational system in Alaska under the new state gov ernment
 The association recommended that the state department of edu- cation be organized as one single major department of the execu- tive branch of the government in accordance with Article 3, section 26 of the constitution. It is pro- posed that this major department be headed by lay board which shall have the power to appoint the principal executive officers of that department with the approv- al of the governor, to fix stand ards and to promulgate rules and regulations not inconsistent with law for the government of the schools of the state.
 They give as their reasons the following:
 1. The historical development of each of the AS state departments of education shows that these de- partments function best under a state board of education.
 2. A state board of education guarantees continuity of policy and function.
 3. A state board of education in sures stability of operation.
 4. A state board of education guarantees freedom from partisan politics.
 5. A state board of education represents all the people and not the majority alone.
 6. The non-partisan nature and universal influence of public edu- cation for all children of the state requires a guarantee of freedom from party influence that orly non-partisan state board of educa- tion can provide.
 7. A state board of education is more widely informed on public opinion through a. broader ac- quaintance of the needs and de- sire of the people it represents.

Alaska School Boards Association Seeks State Board. of Education

With regard to the local organi- zation of public schools, the as- sociation recommended that the legislature defer any treatment of this subject at the first session. The School Boards Association felt the problems incident to bor- ough organization are so little understood and apparently so complex that further study and research is necessary before cry stalizing the matter into law.
 The members affirmed their strong adherence to the principal of the separation of church and state.

HOW TO WIN ELECTIONS

Today is the last day for filing as candidate for office in the coming municipal election. The two vacancies are not being hotly contested at this writing, but if they Were-What kind of a cam paign would ensure success?
 The old tried and true prom ises of economy in government are always good. In the next breath, promise many civic inn nrorements-how you are going to reconcile the two is beside the point. Don't hesitate to advocate better roads, better schools, bet ter playgrounds, a better lighted city, balanced budget, by all means, cleaner streets, better fire ard police protection, good sew CTS, adequate water-pick 'em out of the hat-there are hundred others, all sure vote getters.

Here, There And Everywhere
A TIP FROM MARK TWAIN

A 1AA ENOM MANh VAIN
 Mark Twain's 1ovable Pudd'n- head wrote in his diary: October. This is peculiarly dangerous month to speculate in. The others are July, January, September, April, November. May, March, June, December, August and Jan- uary.
 In October, though, the electors of Kodiak will have to do some speculating on who is to fill the councilman vacancy. So far candi- dacy is in the talking stage, and only two to our knowledge have expressed the intention to run.
 CODFISH WAR
 Fortunately the codfish war be- tween the Iceland and British fishermen hasn't resulted in bull lets flying, mainly because resort to arms is out of character with these peace-loying people. Norm ally, hospitality is of the deep South variety. It's land of good food, excellent cooks, cultured cooks, cultured people, and un- ique system of peoples names, Less than 100 families have fam fly monikers The rest of the peo- pie are known by their fathers first names.
 A recent traveller to Iceland stated: Tt can be startling to have your host say I'm Magnus Jonsson. This is my wife, Helga Olafsdottir How do you do, Mrs. Jonsson Fine. But I'm not Mrs. Jonsson. I'm Helga Olafsdottir.
 But MT. Jonsson is your hus- band?"
 He's my husband, but he's real ly not MT. Jonsson. He's Magnus, the son of Jon, or Magnus Jons- son"
 But why aren't you Helga Jons. son?"
 Because my father was Olaf I'm Helga, the daughter of Olaf pr Helga Olafsdottir.
 And your son Whats his name?"
 He's Benedikt Magnuson."
 Not Benedikt Jonsson?"
 ''Of course not. His father, my husband, is Jon's son, or Jonsson He's our boy-he's Magnus' son which makes him Benedikt Mag nusOn."
 And your daughter "
 She's Inga Magnusdottir. It's all so simple"

CHOWDER WINNER

or maybe you could take your cue from James E. Coffin, known as the "Chowder Winner" A state senate candidate in Maine, he based his campaign largely on his special recipe for clam ChOWder and won-in district that had been Republican for A years!
 This opens up great possibili- ties for candidate. The chOWder angle would be appropriate m Kodiak. You could promise bigger and better bowls of clam chOwder if elected. Just think how far George Belmont Cafe) KappOs could go on platform like that. Or if you could just stick to the re- cipe angle.
 The only drawback would be that the two candidates - each with different recipe-one the Coney Island variety, with tOma- toes, and the other an advocate for the New England or r,i'k yer sion, would split the y3@ tt.5tlt down the middle.
 Then, of course, another Cantl- date could come up with a king crab recipe, resulting in the votes being split three ways. He could dazzle the voters with Crab Louie, Crab Fouie, Crab Sewage, crab ad infinetum, even crab tails. His mouth-watering admirers couldn't help themselves their votes would be assured.
 There's something to be said about this brand of politicking inn you get right down to the funda- mentals-your appeal is right where people are. after all, the most sensitive their stOmachS.
 By the time the campaign was over, it would be well-seasOned and peppered up. It probably would make tastier dish than the prospects hold forth at this writing.

The spirit of competition
among the services probably
had nothing to do with it
but the Army, the Navy
and the Air Force were busy
matching each other in off,
duty hours yesterday with
separate social events.
The Chief Of Naval Opera
tons and Mrs. Arleigh Burke
gave a party for newly
selected Admirals at Admiral's
House on Observatory Hill.

ing to a Navy wife,: There is
q certain quota of admirals
and as the vacancies occur
this year. those selected cap
tains will be chosen to fill
them in the order of their
class standings.
Waiting for the list of new
admirals to be announced
is apparently as hard on the
wives as it is on the eligible
captains. Mrs. Harry S.
Smith, whose husband was
promoted, recalled that she
badly needed distraction on
the day of the announce
ment. "A friend very kindly
took me to the Chevy Chase
Club and gave me lunch and
a martini" Then, she said,
she went off to the super
market to kill some more
time.
When she finally got home
and heard from her husband,
he was in a high dudgeon,
she said. HE wanted to know
where the blazes I'd been all
afternoon. He'd been trying
to reach me everywhere to
tell me the good news"
