Alaska was an important bulwark against possible Soviet aggression at the time. Photographs from this trip can be found in the Cecil H. Kornegay Photography Collection held in Alaska's Digital Archive. A short snorter is a bank note signed by members of a group traveling or meeting together and used to memorialize the occasion. When departing each person would sign the bill. When you next met them you were to produce the note. If you could not show them you owed them a drink or "snort." The tradition was started by bush pilots in Alaska in the 1920s and spread with the growth of aviation culminating with the extensive use during WWII. books

4778As President Eisenhower drew our pencil sketch which was part of a group of four pencil sketches three on White House "Agenda" stationery. The President dated this sketch "Mar 11 57." Since the three other sketches in the original group of four were drawn during scheduled White House meetings is it possible that this sketch was also drawn at the White House but not during a scheduled meeting as suggested by the informal paper Ike uses The President had a busy morning of meetings and an evening reception at the Senate Office Building but according to his daily schedule he had an open afternoon. Like two of the other drawings in the group of four this sketch may also be golf related. The sketch is rendered in pencil on a 5 1/2 x 5 3/4 inch page perforated at center. unknown books
