That there is great and growing interest in the sport in Juneau, was evident by the many who at- tended last night's meeting as their first appearance in ski club activities. The main business of the even- ing was the election of officers for the coming year, with the balloting resulting in the choice of Ernest Parsons as presizeny; Dr. William Blanton, vice-president, and Orin Kimball, secretary-treasurer. The new president stressed the importance of expanding the club considerably if it is to be most ef- fective in the promotion of the sport, and encouraged all those present to turn out for all club ac- tivities, whether members or not. Another meeting will be held soon President Parsons said, and asked everyone to be sure to be on hand, and to bring any others that may be interested. Committees will then! be appointed. Applications for membership were received from Ray Abrahamson, Glenn Wald, Everett Erickson, Ted Cowling, Bob Kimball and pros- pective junior member Dean Allen.
