Alaskans Rush I
To Gold Strike
Fairbanks. Alaska, Oct. 24 M
Merchants closed their shops and
workers threw down their tools
today to join the headlong rush
(or gold in a new strike Just
nine miles from the Arctic Cir
cle. Every plane tapable of getting
into the air was crowded with
veteran prospectors, construction
workers, trappers, storekeepers
and college students racing to
stake claims at the lite, located
on a sandbar in the storied Yu
kon river 180 miles north of
here.
The territory's fastest-grow
ing community was the tent city
beside the river which sprang
up after a fisherman discovered
nuggets the size of peas cling
ing to the webs of his fishtrap,
a wheel contraption operated by
the water s clow.
Airline terminals were full of
men trying to charter planes to
the impromptu town, appropri
ately nicknamed Fishweel,
Alaska.
Although the men were ex
cited to fever pitch by the age
old cry of "gold," no bloodshed
was reported in the race for the
diggings.
"Ramblin' Sam" Gamblin, a
veteran of the Sushanan strike
of 1913, said the filing of claims
was being carried out peaceful
ly. "They're not Jumping each
other's diggings like they did in
the Klondike rush of '98 and
the Sushanan strike of '13," he
said.
Gamblin, whose opinion is re
spected by Alaskans, said the
strike had "commercial possibilities."
