Incidentally, Mr. Parks is a former Governor of the Territory, and served for three years as Teasurer of the Council, be- coming its second President at the ceginning of last year. The Alaska Council is divided into four districts, centering re- spectively around the four major cities of Anchorage, Fairbanks, Ket- chikan and Juneau. Largest of the four districts is that in the An- chorage area, known as the “Chu- zach District.” The total member- ship of 868 is included within its boundaries, stretching from Adak to Palmer and from Homer to Cor- dova. Second largest of the four districts is the “Midnight Sun Dis- trict” with Fairbanks as its head- quarters city. This district has 468 registered members, with troops at such far-off communities as Bethel and Anvik in the west; Nome, Kot~ zebue and Barrow to the north; and Big Delta and Healy Forks to the south. This district’s tremendous area is larger than that of any state-side council, and it includes some of the most difficult geogra- phy in the world. Over 1500 miles to the south of it is the “Southern” district, cent- ered around the fishing capital ot | Ketchikan. Southern district has 346 of the Alaska Council's 2,128 members, and its roster includes the native Indian village of Hyda- burg, as well as the modern and progressive towns of Wrangell and Petersburg. Completing the roster of districts which make up the Council, is that known as “Gastineau District,” with headquarters at Juneau. Here also is the Council's administrative of- fice, presided over by the Council's chief professional leader, scout den evergreens and heathers, Mrs Petrich’s garden, Mrs. W. J.
