But the moun- tains that enclose the town ex- cept for the ribbon of Gastincau Channel winding past the commun- ity’s threshold may defeat the pro- ject.

Mr. Banfield is making some studies of weather data with R. C. Mize, Meteorologist in Charge, and a general investigation of condi- tions to determine whether it is feasible to establish the station.
