POST BASKETBALL
LEAGUE COLLAPSEs

The "E" Company basketball team has given up the ghost. Haines has never been the same since her dis astrous Juneau trip, and the natives and the Au-Stars are on their last legs.
 Therefore, there is no alternative left but to call the basketball sea son "fnis'-over-doue with.
 The winner of the penuant re- mans a question. Co. "E" was lead ing when she coIlapsed-but had one game to play against the All Stars 10 cinch the pennant. The Natives haven't been heard of in in two months. and both Haines and the AIl-Stars were entirely out of the running. So the season winner remains in doubt. That argument will have to be settled in the squad or day rooms. We're no Judge Landis.
 But-and in sorrow we say it- the basketball league is now a thing of the past. The bowlers have the foor.-ChiIkat Post.

A Woman Who
 Saved the World

There were anxious hearts in Eng land that July morning over three centuries ago. The long-expected Inviucible Armada had been sight ed in the English channel, covering the seas as far as the eye could reach. Spain, mistress of the ocean, rich with the spells of the New World, and drunk with the lust of conquest, had dispatched this mighty fleet to destroy England, the only remaining obstacle in her path to world dominiOn-that England to whom the oppressed and outraged peoples of Continental Europe look ed as their sole protector and ref uge.
 But a Iion-hearted woman sat on the English throne, and Elizabeth was prepared. With smashing blows her gallant admirals drove their stout little ships against the giant, gilded galleons of Philip of Spain, scattering and shattering them, hanging on like wasps to the huge naval structures, as for ten days they drove the terrified DOns be fore them. while from every prom ontory on the shores anxious eyes strained through the smoke of bat tie, and heavy hearts grew lighter in prayers of thanksgiving as one by one the sails of the fleeing enemy disappeared beneath the waves.
 As in the World War. Englands fleet saved the day for civilization but it was a woman. Queen Eliza beth. who made England Mistress of the Seas.-Abbot. the Historian.

.rangeII Wants
 Movie Censor

A movement for the creation by law of a territorial board of moving picture censorship has been launch ed at Wrangell by the Parent Teachers association, according to information received by Territorial Commissioner Of Education L. n. Henderson. The alleged poor quail ity of some of the Rlms being eNhib- tied in various Alaskan towns is given by the WrangeI organization as the reason for It's action.
 The Wrangen Pareut-TeaChers association has taken the matter up with similar organizations In all Al aska towns for the purpose of se- curing cooperation from them in the movement. The secretary Of the WrangeII organization was also in structed to communicate with the attorney generals office for legal advice on the subject. Mir. Rust gard said today that he had heard nothing yet regarding the matter
 The plan of the WUangell body calls for drafting Of a suitable law creating the proposed board of cen sorship and presenting it to the next session Of the territorial legis- lature. The association is confident that if it is presented with the en- dorsemcnt of every Pareut-Teachers' association in the territory the bill will be enacted without serious dif- Empire.
