Lord Tell of Trip Icy Alaska Could Be America's New Frontier "Go west young man" has long been America's call to adventure and opportunity but Mr. and Mrs. George W. Lord predict a direction change to the north. Mr.

and Mrs. Lord, who live at 324 Donald recently returned a tour of Alaska where they heard our part of the country frequently referred to as "the lower 4S." "If I were young man I'd go to Alaska," says Mrs. Lord, "because it's the coming country." The Lords visited some modern cities in southern Alaska but they also visited Nome and Kotzebue which are villages inside the Artie Circle. Much of northern Alaska is still frontier but the Lords say that many avenues of progress are opening for the natives. They say the people are friendly, good-natured and eager to iearn.

Transportation is a major problem in Alaska because of the cold and snow. Many people own their own planes and air strips. Mrs. Lord says that 20 per cent of the world's planes are in Alaska. Of course, the dog sled is still fhe major means of transportation for the natives.

The Lords took a short sled ride while in Kotzebue. An uneven number of dogs pull the sled. The lead dog receives directions verbally from the driver who uses no reins. The other dogs follow the lead dog. Mr.

Lord says a good lead dog is worth $1,000 in Alaska. The dogs are kept hungry during the summer months so they will be willing to travel. Mr. Lord says the dogs are so willing that they actually resent being left behind. The average age in Alaska, according to the Lords, is between Summer Bride Contrary to popular belief, Es- 19 and 23.

The older people have kimos do not live in igloos. The a custom called "leave taking" Lords say the natives use igloos when they go into the wilderness to i in emergency situations in the die. They do this so they won't i jbe a burden to the younger people. Most a i i live in one room! "They look forward to their leave taking as a relief," says Mrs. Lord.

Alaskans practice a sport called "blanket tossing" which developed from an old i custom. In earlier days hunters would toss a man high in the air to look and determine in which direction the animals were. Today this is done for enjoyment. Talking around a patio table at a party Saturday which honored Miss Dorothy Summers, bride-elect, are Mrs. Rudolph Dallmeyer, mother of the prospective bridegoom; Miss Summers; Mrs.

Joseph Summers, mother of the honoree; Miss Jean i i and Miss Nicki Nichols, hostesses. Dorothy Summers rday About 125 Attending huts.
