Nome Bowling Board Meets With Brunswick Corp.

Brunswick Corp. came to Nome last week 10 meet with the man. agement of Aukruk Lanes. They were.
 MT. Harold Larson, Western Branch manager and Mir. Pat Car tee, Alaska representative.
 A four hour meeting was held with available members, at which time Mir Larson went through the bowling records in an effort to help the board and stockholders continue in business.
 He stated that the Brunswick Corp. viewed the Nome operation as a poor risk and that unless pay mentS were made 1t would be necessary 10 start foreclosure pro- ceedlngs. Since no payments had been made in the past year it was impossible to refinanee at this time.
 Mir. Larson asked the board 10 submit an estimated cost of operation for the next 12 months, which was done as follows:
 Heat, S2,310; lights, s2,438.42;; telephone, s195.2l: wages S3,240;; city sales tax, s5l4. insurance, sl,934o2;; taxes, s19521; total of s10,827
 In June the board had sub mitted to Brunswick an operating cost of s16.943 66 based on the 1861 figures. Volunteer ne. and do- mated services plus an overall cut in utilities has lowered the operat- ing expense.
 MT. Larson said that he would recommend to Brunswick that the Nome Alleys be allowed to operate providing. that make pay ments of $500 per month plus some thing toward the old balance He will do this, as 1t is evident that an alI-out effort is being made to put the alleys on a pay ing basis. He said that our lanes and pinsetters are in fine working shape and the board gives thanks 10 Dick Deems for his free time this summer. Mir. Larson gave his opinion that the Nome Alleys can not continue in operation with the revenue as it is now. Unless the stockholders and the town people utilize the one and only recreation al facility more in the future 1t will be necessary to remove same from Nome.
 The board went on record that they would make an all-out effort 10 meet the payments during the next 12 months. This means pay ments to Brunswick and the SEA, plus monthly operating costs. To be able to do this there must be revenue of S24,O0o and at this time we estimate only S18,0OO in the next 12 months. Where is the extra S6,0O0 going to come from, only If the people will bowl as often as there pocketbook will allow, stated Tom Martin. chair man of the board of directors.
 In this figure of S24,OOO there is not one cent that can be paid on accounts payable, property rent to the city, loan payment to the M X M Bank, let alone over 5000 due on property taxes. Interest is growing on these accounts every day that are not paid The stock holders have approximately a s6O.- 900 equity in these alleys. Are the people of Nome going to sit by and watch this hard work and money of theirs go down the draln?' Martin asked.
 Let's set goal of s3O,OOO in the next l2 months and pay off this indebtedness so we can proudly say these are Nome's alleys"
 The board will post the weekly revenue on the bulletin board at the bowling alley so YOU can

budding artist will love you
dearly for it, too.
An 18-inch square of wash
able fabric is all that is
needed. You may be able to
make the apron from rem
nants Of denim or any other
heavy cotton fabric. If there
are two children in the fam
lily, a half a yard will make
an apron for each.
Your gift will be even more
exciting if you wrap a color
Ing book and a box Of crayons
with it. This will surely bring
squeals of delight from the
child who receives it.
You'll Need: 18-inch square
OF blue denim or heavy cot.
