ALASKA PRODUCES 70 MILLION
 POUNDS OF COPPER

The copper production of Alaska in 1918 was 69.224,951 pounds. valued at 17,098,563, according to a report on the Alaska mining industry in 1918 just issued by the U. $. Geological Sur vey, Department of the Interior. This is less than the production in 1917, which was SS.793.400 pounds. valued at $24,240.598 The, reduction in out put is stated to be due to shortage of labor and ships. During the year IT copper mines were operated, the same number as in 1917. A copper prospect on the Alaska Peninsula is under de- veIopmen,t and interest still continues. the report states in the copper de- posits of the Talkeetna and Broad Pass districts The copper deposits in the Alaska Range recently reported are still attracting attention, although lit tie work has been done on them. The deposit of copper discovered in 1915 on Rainy Creek, tributary of the South Fork of Delta River miles above Mill ler's roadhouse, is said to be large body of low grade ore on which con- siderable crosscuttins has been done, There is also a low-grade copper de- posit in the gulch 1 12 or 2 miles west of Paxson's roadhouse. A copper lode on McLaren River, tributary to the Susitna, is said to be 10 feet wide and of high grade. It was reported that an outfit was to be taken in on the to p0?nd wadtf dawtd fadtW daftdat snow in the winter of 1s18-19 to pros- pect this deposit.

ACADEMY PLAYS WINDHAM
 AT WilLIMANTtC TODAY

This afternoon in Willimantic, Windham High will have last chance at humbling Coach Eddie McKay's oval pursuers. However it looks like pretty slim chance. considering the easy time N. F. A. had in winning, at their last meeting in Norwich few weeks ago. The Norwich boys are very confident and expect to roll up a big score for the benefit of BulkeIey, whose stock by the way. is sinking at an alarming rate. Judging by the way the Academy is improving lately it looks as though they will run away with Bulkeley next Saturday.
 In preparation for the Bulkeley game, MT. Mckay has doped out sev- eral new plays, with which he expects to make the New London boys look like "also rans." Friday afternoon was spent in drilling on these plays and they looked good from where we sat. They will not be used in today's battle.
 Markoff is now fixture in the backfield and he rounds it off in fine style. He is fast on his feet and is clever in a broken field besides being hard and sure tackler. s.., There is a chance that Capt. Su- plicki may get into harness by next but is still weak. His presence in the lineup will put lot of confidence in- to his teammates.
 There will be no changes in the l lineup in today's game
