News Reel Movies
Nome Queens
Planned
A wire was recently received
hy Frank Whaley from the Uni
versal News Reel of New York
City stating they would like tc
have a short moving picture shot
of the Nome Queen Beauty Con
testants on the ice of Bering Sea
The movie requested is to be us
ed for news reel purposes and
shown throughout the United Stal
es and territories.
The girls are to be photograph
ed in fur clothing and bathing
suits. The contestants inter
viewed so far have all agreed tc
co-operate in the filming of these
pictures and are looking forward
With much delight to the pros
pects of seeing themselves in the
News Reel.
In preparation for the oocasior
several queen enthusiasts have
constructed a fair sized igloo jus'
west of Snake River jetty. Thi:
will be used as headquarter:
while filming the pictures. This
igloo has been built under the
supervision of George Taggart
i and is made in true Eskimo style
of snow blocks only. There will
be a stove in the igloo where the
girls can warm up.
Since the weather and photo
graphic conditions will have to
be favorable before the pictures
can be taken and as this cannot
be determined in advance, ar
rangements have been made with
Chief Laws as follows: On the
first favorable day after this no
tice when the photographic con
ditions are right, the fire station
whistle will add three blasts
right after the regular noon
whistle. This will serve as a sig
nal to all who are to take part
in the filming of the pictures that
(they are to be on location at the
! igloo in one hour—or at 1 p m.
of that day.
This will be a wonderful op
portunity for home movie and
'camera enthusiasts to get some
unique pictures. Everyone who
'can get Sway is cordially invited
'to take in the show and for the
i purpose of atmosphere are re
quested to wear their fur par
kas and mukluks.
Bring your dog team if you
have one as this will all add to
the pictures. It is believed that
this will be a wonderful oppor
tunity for a little national pub
licity for Nome as still pictures
are to be taken and sent to Seat
tle and New York papers where
it is believed they will be used
for roto-gravure purposes.
All queen candidates are re
quested to be at Whaley’s home
at 9:15 p.m. tonight to get full
particulars regarding the pictur
es also a moving picture roll will
be shown at that time of the last
year’s Fairbanks ice carnival
where they can get a good look
at last year's Miss Alaska.
Don’t forget that when the
noon whistle is immediately fol
lowed by three blasts, that
means that the pictures are to be
taken in one hour at the igloo
just west of the Snake River
jetty.
The public and especially child
ren is requested not to experi
ment with the strength of the
snow igloo, or to cause it any
damage, as considerable Work
Vvould be necessary to again place
it in readiness for the picture
shots.

NOME PASSENGERS HAVE
THRILL OF LIVES WHEN
PLANE NOSES OVER
AT FAIRBANKS
A definite argument for better
airfield maintenance was seen to
day when the PAA Electra nosed
over into a snow bank with five
passengers.,No one was injured,
says the Fairbanks News-Miner
of Feb. 16th, just received.
The big ship was on wheels,
taxiing down the runway cleared
by the PAA, when one wheel hat
into snow that had drifted onto
the runway. This turned the
airplane into deeper snow, and
eased it completely over. The
accident occurred on the west
end of the field where the plane
nosed over, and capsized on the
south side of the runway.
No One Hurt
Neither Pilot Robbins nor Co
pilot Hall were hurt, according to
Joe Crosson, manager of the PAA
in Fairbanks.
The plane was taking off for
Whitehorse and Juneau, where
there is no snow for landing, so
it was using wheels instead of
skiis.
“Fairbanks should have better
field maintenance to prevent this
sort of difficulty,.' Mr. Crosson
said. The plane operators have
been maintaining a narrow run
way for ships on wheels.
Plenty of Room
There is plenty of room avail
able for the maintenance of dou
ble runways, for either wheels or
skiis.
Under normal conditions the
PAA runway is adequate.
The wings of the Electra were
not damaged in this morning’s
turnover.
Passengers were: Miss A. Leo,
John Tomrik, Mr. and Mrs. Ross
J. Kinney and Mrs. B. J. MicCon
aghy.
