WAY FOR HONEYMOONERS OAKLAND, Calif, Oct. 4—Out- side of Alaska the first time in 12 years, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Ringen plan to see a little bit of “high life” this winter with the $133,000 they won in the Tanana River Ice: Break-up Pool last spring. The trip is also somewhat of a belated honeymoon. Ringen, a prospector, and Mrs. Rita Hard- ing pooled their entry in the con- test, entering 80 guesses. When they won, they split' the pot. Then, in August, they were married and the winnings from their consolidated entry likewise consolidated. They will travel this winter and also buy a little farm for Mrs. Ringen’s 77-year-old mother, Mrs. Bessie Golden of Oakland, before returning north next spring. .- — DOVNEY IN JUNEAU Jack Dovney arrived from Cor- dova yesterday and is a guest at the Baranof Hotel. e NOTICE Ir.
