LOS ANGELES ELKS WANT TO SEE ICE GO OUT AT NENANA An expedition from Los Angeles to Fairbanks to see the ice go out in the Tanana River at Nenana in the spring is being planned by a| group of Elks in Los Angeles, ac- cording to a letter received by the Fairbanks News-Miner from Charles W. Alcott, a member of a Los An- geles Elks lodge. Mr. Alcott asked in his letter for the approximate date when the ice goes out, in order that the Elks will know when to leave so as to make the trip in the shortest pos- sible time, as those planning to| come out in the party are employed | and do not want to take any more | time out than necessary. The members of the group, whom Mr. Alcott terms “The Happy-go-| Lucky Elks,” anticipate a merry time on their visit to the North. SEWARD ROAD MAN HERE ON BUSINESS R. C.

Twelve years ago, August Kompa, | the father, faced a grave crisis. Vir- tually penniless, suffering from war ;wounds. with no prospect of employ- ment, Kompa assembled his wife and three daughters and decided to i seek a new start in America. Leaving their German home at Essen, the Kompa family found new life in New York. Father Kompa found work and his daughters were {quick to adapt themselves to Ameri- can child life. Swimming, they found, was a lot of fun, and Elizabeth and Erna were! | quick to learn. | Beauty In Backstroke | “We liked backstroke best,” said Sister Elizabeth, “because it was such |a pretty stroke. So useless, but so | beautiful. I guess we both made this our specialty because neither one of us would let the other get very far ahead. We've always done things alike.” | Erna is 21 and Elizabeth 20. Both | are engaged in secretarial work, their | contribution to the family bread- | winning. ) Their striking resemblance leads !many to believe them twins. Both | jare blonde and wear similar coif- fures. “We're great pals everywhere ex- cept the swimming pool,” says Sister Erna. “We try just as hard to beat each other as we do other swimmers |in our race. I think it's perhaps this |sharp rivalry that accounts for what- ever we have achieved.” Eleanor Holm Jarrett was an in- spiration to the Kompas. They tried to pattern their style of swimming from Mrs. Jarrett’s. Relatives in Germany have sent the Kompa sisters newspaper clip- pings ‘about plans for the Olympics. Should they make the trip, their relatives will be confronted with a |fine dilemma. They must decide | whether to remain loyal and cheer for the Reich, or to favor their kin- ship by pulling for the Kompa girls, They Learned In U.
