troops and to facilitate their mis- slon. The latter, of course, is to maintain the sleepless radar vigil on the vast unfriendly country that stretches back from just little east of Tin City for thousands of miles.
 Morale of Tin City troops, like the morale of the early-day min CTS, is problem. Morale concerns the US. military. Even if you have the highest hopes, as did the min- CTS in the early days, the country, the weather and the distance be- comes increasingly disappointing.
 Tin City is one of the very few remote stations which offers nothing in the way of diversion - no fishing, hunting - even walk ing Is dangerous because of fierce sudden storms, and then there is no place to go.
 The Army Engineers went back to Tin City this spring to build a tWo-lane bowling alley and a bas- ketball court as morale booster. These were completed in Novem- Der IS.
 The Commander of the 71Oth Squadron at Tin City, It. Col. AL exander J. Stomma, looks for ward to seeing some exciting bas- ketball games in the new gym. They will all be of the intramural variety, he says. No games will be scheduled with teams from the nearest town - in this case - a pace called Dezhnev, Siberia

Tin City Boasts Bowling, Basketball

Tin City is on the jawline of the Western World.
 It IS appropriate that a bowling alley should be there, and a bas- ketball court.
 You are 60 miles away from Si- beria at Tin City; about 1,5OO miles west of the Golden Gate, and some 500 miles west of Pearl liar Dor. You are still on the continent but at a point where it juts the farthest west, and a little south of the Arctic Circle.
 The city isn't a city, town or a village. Early miners, in about 1903, finding the only tin mine on the continent thought they had the makings of a city. That was before they gave it up because the enterprise was so distant it didn't pay. It's rude arctic country at Tin City. Winds blast it and it freezes there on the WarmeSt days of the year. The country is barren and not fit for much if it were not for its strategic location.
 That it was there, pressed closest to the hump of Asia, is probably the reason the Army Engineers came there in 1851 building a de- fense station one of a network of remarkably isolated stations stretching around the northern perimeter of the continent like a trip-line to give warning in case of a sneak attack.
 Ever since the Engineers first came to the outpost, there has been a siege that hasn't been lifted by sandblasting weather The En- gineers' job was to make life pos sible for the garrison of Air Force
