Gasser, Repri sentative Alden Wilbur and Repri ‘:m:lnuw Glen Franklin. Tickets are Iso obtainable at the desk of the }B ranof Hotel. | “Few citizens have devoted more energy to the public good than has Andrew Nerland, long-time legisla- tor and president of the University Board of Regents,” said Gronroos. Mr. Nerland was appointed to the | Regents in 1928 and has been presi- [dent of the Board for the past il‘l years. | | “The Alumni of the University wish to honor Mr. Nerland for his years of unselfish service for the good of the Territory and the Uni- | versity by this testimonial dinner,” Gronroos said. Mr. Nerland is regarded as the legislative father of the University, as he sponsored the bill in 1917 that provided $60,000 for the establish- ment of a College of Agriculture and School of Mines. Mr. Nerland did not run for the 1919 legislature and no appropriation was made for the college. So Nerland ran again, and the 1921 legislature appro- priated $42,000 to complete the buildings, hire a president, a faculty and open the doors to students. Since then Mr. Nerland has kept an active interest in the growth and progress of the University. Mr. Nerland was a member of the Territorial Senate five times, one time president of the senate, was seven times member of the House, including a term as Speaker. He is a Past Grand President of the Pioneers of Alaska and a 30 degree Mason. Guests at the Testimonial dinne: next Wednesday evening will in- clude Dr. Terris Moore, president of the University, and Mrs, Moore who will be Juneau visitors at the time. Dr. Moore will be here on official business as well as renew- ing his acquaintanceship with mem- pers of the Juneau Ice Reconnais- sance Party with whom he hac climbed mountains in Tibet, Canada and Europe. A BIRD WAS THE CAUSE OF IT ALL; THAT BLACKOUT The unscheduled electrical black- out last Sunday night was caused by a bird — a large bird, judging by the amount of feathers scattered workmen Who went to Annex Creek reported. The large bird had lit on the line causing a short which blew out an insulator — and blew up the bird. Similar incidents involving little birds have occurred before, but this is the first time a large bird got into the act. |(MPROVED PHONE SERVICE T0 AUK BAY CCMING SOON New Float for Fishing Ves- sels May Be Con- struded in Area Auk Gay residents will have their own telephone system within a short "SQUARE DANCE me, it was revealed last night by George F Cantillon, chairman of the board of directors of the Auk Bay Public Utilities District anc The A nder of the Auk Bay Post of Cantil ting with the Leg- on cutive Committee, said that negotiations are now in pregres: between the Auk Bay P.U.D. anc the U.
