Collection Name	Ernest H. Gruening Papers, 1914-[1959-1969] 1974
Identifier	UAF-1976-21-53723
Title	RCA students calculate electronic requirements
Description	"An unusual record of achievement has been established by eight native Alaskans, who were graduated August 10 by the RCA Institutes in New York. Members of a pilot group, sponsored by the Bureau of Indian Affairs, they scored a notable success in completing an 18-months course in Industrial and Communications Electronics without a single drop-out or failure. This record far exceeds the performance normally anticipated in regular groups. Here (left to right) Arthur Petersen of Fort Yukon, Sam Kito, Jr., of Petersburg, and inductance coils in a master oscillator power amplifier at the RCA Institutes." Further information was supplied by Wilfrid Lane of Point Hope during the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) Convention held at the Carlson Center in Fairbanks, October 2005. Percy Ipalook Jr. is the man on the right end . Further information was supplied by Carolyn Smith during the Alaska Federation of Natives (AFN) Convention held at the Carlson Center in Fairbanks, October 2005. Sam Kito in the center ; Percy Ipalook Jr. on the right.
