Description: The New Legion Clubhouse for Alfred Erickson Post 186 has been recently acquired by the Hancock body from the Houghton County Board of supervisors. Built in the late 30's by the N.Y.A., it will be completely renovated, moved back 20 feet from the road and set upon a new concrete basement. The Hancock legionnaires plan to spend several thousands of dollars to make this structure one of the finest in the Copper Country. The structure is a "T" shaped building and is 84 feet in length. Located on M-203 in west Hancock, the property will encompass several additional lots which will be used for parking area. On hand recently to open study of renovating plans were from left, Gabriel Masini, John Jacobson, Richard Hoyer, Dan MacDonald, W. H. Rahio, Arvid Wedmark, Ed Gillest, John Niemi and Al Murphy. [The men wearing their legion hats, stand in the tall grass outside of the building.]
