CLUBS MUST PAY
 LICENSE SELL 4 LIQUOR

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov 2-The Federal Court of Appeals today hand ed down a decision denying the peti- tion for a rehearing in the case of the Eni Club of Nome, Alaska, which had appealed from a decision of Judge Tucker of the Second Division requir- ing the Club to take out a 5000 liquor license if it wished to sell intoxicants members. The decision has been awaited with great deal of interest throughout Alaska, as the Tilikum Club in Valdez, and the Panama Club in Fairbanks were similarly effected by the ruling of Judge Tucker. The attorneys for the Eni Club pleaded that the men in Alaska outnumbered the women five to one and because of the lack of home life and ties, the men needed the recreation afforded by clubs of this character, for without them they would patronize the saloons, and the morals of the com munty were better preserved in a club. In it's decision the court said that the lack of women in the Terri tory had nothing to do with the mat ter as the judges were bound by the law and could not consider the social aspect of the case, and that on legal grounds there was no error in the decision of Judge Tucker which must be upheld.
