Even with some unexpected last-minute reshuffling of teachers, nearly all Territorial schools opened today for the 1950-51 year, according to Dr. James C. Ryan, Commissioner of Education.
Dr. Ryan and two Education Department supervisors will leave shortly on their annual fall tours throughout the Territory. Dr. Ryan is booked via Pacific Northern Airlines Saturday, planning to cover the Bristol Bay and Kuskokwim areas, as well as the railroad belt. He expects to return October 1.
Dr. Dorothy Novatney will leave early next week for more remote outposts, going to Sitka to board a Fish and Wildlife craft, for the Pribilof Islands and stops in the Aleutians. She also will visit schools on the Kenai Peninsula and around Prince William Sound before returning to Juneau for Thanksgiving.
Kenneth Clem will be a Pan American passenger Saturday, booked to Nome. His tour of approximately two months will also take him to other communities on Seward Peninsula, and he also will cover the Yukon district, Richardson and Glenn Highway schools and, possibly, the Matanuska Valley.
In Dr. Ryan's absence, Everett Erickson, Deputy Commissioner of Education, will be in charge of the headquarters office in Juneau.
