"I heard of the crash that day George, I'm sorry to have lost one hand for us and others. He did his duty to the people, John Kulowoyi, of Savoonga. wrote George Mark ham upon learning of the death of Jack E. Davis, Sanitation Aide Su- pervisor for the Bethel Area for the State of Alaska's Department of Health and Welfare. Jack Davis died in a plane crash during whiteout while returning to Bethel from field trip.
 John Kulowiyi has reflected the profound feelings of the natives upon the loss of a public servant whose dedicated efforts were so valuable in bettering the living conditions in native villages.
 Jack Davis had something more to offer besides the work he was doing. He had respect for people he worked with and for the natives for whom he worked to help. This quality could not but help him gain genuine respect from his fellow workers and from the natives.
 The Sanitation Aide, publication of Division of Public Health, sani- tation section, had there words to say of Jack E. Davis:
 Ut is not out of order to con- sider some of the reasons for this respect and affection. Jack had a sincere respect for others-their rights were important in anything he planned He was conscientious in carrying out his duties but not only those he was expected to do but also those where he could lend a hand.
 Jack was well qualified in a professional way for the work he was doing as Sanitarian. And it was this combination of qualities and skill which fitted him so well for his work.
 Jack Davis left a mark against which all of us will do well to measure ourselves. The best tribute that we can pay to his memory will be to carry on the work he left us in the same spirit of service and love of his fellow man."
 And so to Jack E. Davis, loved by those he served, whose dedicated service in behalf of the natives, as we'll as others, whose vital service in the betterment of sanitation in villages, whose untimely death ended fine humanitarian career, goes the Tundra Times North Star Award dedicated to his memory and the unselfish services he gave for the benefit of the people of Alaska.

 Winter Tourism

We all admit that Nome has wonderful winter tourist potential that unique and could attract winter tourists and organized winter tours What good pofen- ta if we don't do something about promoting t? doesnr have to be subsidized it doesn't require bonding issue, we don't have to vote on it. All needsis little planning and promoting.
 This past week several people have passed through Nome who wanted to do something different than they could do back in the lower fortyegh and talk about and some of them couldn't get dog team ride. Then there gracious white haired lady, who wanted to accomplish something worthwhile while on the tarthest west peninsula of North America and being the kind ot person she was she planned her tour and seeing things and doing things other visitors wish they might have done, and has set an example of what should be available for all visitors
 What did she do? She rented sno-Traveer and was taken 10 Anvil Creek where gold discovered a the turn of inc century, she had dog team ride she went fishing; she will the Iron Curtain from St. Lawrence Island; she 10 Diomede Island, but she did it her own initiative.
 There should be some place in our community where dog team owners registered and prices set for dog rides to various places; where SnowTraveer rentals available to the foothills the Bering Sea- where tom-cod line be rented; where information be ob taned side trips 10 St. Lawrence Island or Domede, or Teller
 All this information must be available at some bus- ness house in town tous is to be promoted Dog rides mean income for families that could use it. Umak rides extra income for Eskimo families next month but there must be central place for people who want to do things to make contact.
 Whose job is it? Why hasn't it been done? Why don't change this potential into pleased enthusiastic guests who leave Nome to fell of inc excing and unusual ex- perences they had in inc best known city of Alaska

My heart is an arctic wasteland,
 Frozen, hard and bleak; Permafr0st of grief. My Heart is a long. long winter,
 Night is never gone, Hidden is the sun. My heart is a barren glacier,
 Treasured, bitter. cold. Windswept, is my soul.

I'M Club InstaIIs, Sets up! Meeting With Base Club

At lively and interesting meet ing Tuesday night at the Mont martre Inn, the Kodiak Island Toastmasters club installed its new officers for the year. John Warren was installed as president Will Troyer educational vice-president, Dave Fremming administrative vice-president, Dennis Duke secre- tary, Walter Baldwin treasurer, Karl Brunstad sergeant at arms.
 The jovial pace was set when Postmaster of the Evening, Russ Welborn introduced Karl Brun- stad, who directed the Tabletopics. Karls table topics succeeded in stirring enthusiasm and interest which followed throughout the meeting.
 Dr. Bob Johnson delivered a speech entitled "Sibernation," whose title and subject matter were interesting and intriguing.
 Bill Lencer delivered speech entitled Duty, Honor and Country. At the start of Bills speech it ap- peared that perhaps we had an old warrior in our midst but soon learned he was presenting a read ing speech which had been deliv- cred by a famous general.
 Constructive criticism of the speakers and the meeting was at the direction of George Cornelius.
 On Tuesday, Jan. p, a joint meeting will be held with the Base ToaStmasters Club which will be held at the Officers Club at 6 pm.
 The purpose of Toastmasters is to improve the speaking ability of each member. Members alternate in delivering speeches, presiding over meetings and evaluating each others speaking abilities.

VISITORS IMPRESSIONS


vide a hastily drawn composite
picture of the new President
at his desk-what he is doing
and what he is thinking.
He looks in first-rate con-
dition. There is no evidence
of fatigue. He moves and talks
with the old energy so char
acteristic of his Senate lead
ership. He returned from his
last trip abroad a bit over
weight - around 206 pounds.
But the pounds are evenly
distributed over a big frame.
He is taller than he looks
6 feet 3 inches. Careful
of his diet, conscious of ca
loric content, he plans to take
off at least ten pounds. He
cautions new servitors never
to serve him an underripe to-
mato. If it looks green. put
it on the window sill and let
it ripen in the sun. He has a

to mix.

and of her responsibility to
enforce prudent routines pro-
viding rest and plenty of sleep.
Perhaps the first minor in
ternational complication of
the new administration fol-
lowed the Presidents unex-
pectedly long interview with
President de Gaulle following
the Arlington ceremonies a
week ago yesterday. In their
exchange of amenities and
mutual assurances of friend
ship there may have been a
misunderstanding, or there
may have been a change Of
mind. But an impression that
President De Gaulle would
visit President johnson next
year was erased py a later
French suggestion that Gen.
de Gaulle would welcome a
visit from President johnson
implying disagreement in petty
protocol as to who should do
what first.
This doesn't bother the Pres
ident. Protocol bores him. What

exercise. The highly sensitive

fresh anxiety his every move.
There is no walking around
outdoors. There is a restric-
ton on the kind of car he
must ride in. On a quiet and
unannounced visit he paid an
old friend the other day, he
complained about the circuit
Gus route followed in getting
to his d stin tion. Those
charged with his security had
heard threat. The President
thought it was rather ridicu-
lous. He looks forward to COM
pletion of repairs that have
temporarily closed the White
House pool. There is a chance
for safe exercise there.
He can't get away from the
subject of his health. Every
body who sees him reminds
him of its Importance. Many

covered by a blanket. She
apparently was dead.
Mr.. earle called the police.
While waiting for them to
arrive the boy told Mr.. earle
he hadn't eaten since last
Wednesday.
The police, when they ar
rived, found the refrigerator
completely empty. The boy
told the police the last time
he talked to his mother was
several days ago. He also said
he was IA years old and in
the seventh grade.
Police found that the
woman was Mrs. Vera Eva
Kann, 80, a German war
bride who was divorced two
years ago from an Air Force
sergeant.
The boy was not her son
but her brother. She had
brought him to this country
when she married because

were dead.

head of the Prince Georges

there was no evidence of foul

He was very young. He
wore q new winter cap, an
old trenchcoat, ragged

on his face.
In his pocket was q stolen

But let the story come
from Kenneth earle, 80, as

At 8:15 last night Mr..
Carrie was returning to the
store when he saw the boy
trying to leave the store
through an entrance door.
Mr.. earle asked whether
he had anything he wanted
to pay for and the boy said
he did and produced a 80
cent box of chocolate-c covered
cookies.
AS. in all such cases, Mr..
Carrie took the boy to the
store office to get his name
and address. The youngster
appeared extmerely upset.
First, the boy gave a fic-
titious name and address.
Mr.. earle, realizing this,
told him to give the right
name or he would call the
police.
The boy begged him not to
call and gave another ad-
dress. The grocer took the
boy and the latter's bicycle
in his car and set out.
They stopped at an apart
meent building and went in
side. The boy hesitated.

you" Mr.. earle asked.
The boy said he didn't.
Then he gave an address in
