KETCHIKAN WILL HAVE
 PUBLIC HEALTH NURSE
Red Cross Chapter of First City En-
 gages Nurse to Carry Out Pro-
 gram of National Organization

Ketchikan chapter of the Red Cross will engage for eight months, commencing next September, a nurse to carry out the health pro- gram of the national organization
 To finance the undertaking the chapter will ask the national organ ization for refund of the 50 per cent of the roll call fees which now go to the states. It is also hoped that the work of the nurse will be sudh and bring such returns that the rollcall will be greatly increas- ed. An attempt also will be made to induce the federal bureau of ed ucation to donate literally to the cause inasmuch as many natives in the district will receive aid from this source.
 After the work Is undertaken during the winter months, so that the people may see just what it is and what may be expected if it is continued, the matter will be put up to the people to vote on at the spring election, to see whether they wish it continued as municipal undertaking. and at the expense of the municipality.
 If Miss Leroy, formerly govern ment nurse at Metlakatla, who is now taking a Red Cross course in the states, is availible, the national organization will be asked to 'as- sign her to the field in Ketchikan. Chronicle.

YUKON WINTER HOLDS NO
 TERR0Rs FOR CATERPILLAR

The following is from a recent issue of the Dawson Daily News. The. "cat" was purchased from the Wiley mining interests at Haines It was shipped to Skagway by steamer and from thence to White horse over the White Pass railroad. From the latter place it went by it's own power to Mayo. dragging with it three freight-laden trailsrs and a fourth which contained the home of the crew while en route:
 The Treadwell Yukon caterpillar arrived at Mayo about ten days ago after a successful trip over the win ter route from whitehorse. News or the arrival of the "cat"is brought by passengers who got in on the overland stage from Minto. Three mushers from Mayo arrived at Min to when the stage was there en route to Dawson, and reported they mao ste am yor ato routvbgkqjjjj met the "cat" two or three days prior only three miles out from Mayo and going strong. Thus prac- tically was completed the pioneer trip of a modern caterpillar across the Yukon under winter conditions in all kinds of temperatures and over deepest of snows. The trip is historic and epochal, as it demon strates the feasibility of the machine in winter and under most adverse conditions. The "cat" not only made it's own way but also hauled four trailers. three of which were laden with a total of ten tons of freight and the fourth was a ca boose comprising sleeping and kitchen accommodations for the crew Mark Manchester. electrical super intendent of the Yukon Gold Com pany. who was in Minto when the news of the arrival of the "cat" in the vicinity of Mayo was received says:
 We followed down the overland trail to Minto not long after the ma chine had passed that way and saw its tracks and could understand its wonderful performance. It crossed no bridges or culverts. Each time it came to such place it turned aside and took the gulch or creek bottom. Those who saw it negotiate those places, say it never hesitated, but plunged right down the steepest bank and crept up the opposite side and ramblel along and dragged over the trailers.
 ''We could see where the machine walked right over lighter trees and other growth. It would smash through elump of any number of trees the size of mans wrist. and smash them down like so many pipe stems. It performed just like it's big brother. the war tank, and has proved it can get there at any time in the winter in the Yukon"

AN APPRECIATION
(From Alaska School Bulletin)

(From Alaska School Bulletin)
 The thanks of Alaska teachers, pupils, and parents is due the three Red Cross nurses who have been rendering service in the Territory generally and in the Alaska schools particularly during the present school year
 Miss Ebba Djupe, Red Cross field representative for Alaska, has cov- cred all important points between ketchikan and Fairbasks since her advent in the Territory last summer and has aroused an intense interest in attention to the physical we'll be- ing of school children and children of pre-school age. She has person. ally conducted physical inspection of the majority of the pupils enroll ed in the schools of Southeastern Alaska. It is largely through her efforts that Miss Stella Fuller. Delano nurse, was stationed at Se- ward. from which point she has been serving the communities and schools in the isolated section to the Westward. where nurses and physi- clans are somewhat few and far be- tween.
 Miss Fuller has left behind her a record of good deeds performed in the communities which she has wis., ited, which has won for her the last ing regard and affection of all.
 Miss Marie Falldine, public health nurse in the employ of the Juneau Chapter. A. R. C.,>is theTer- ritory's latest acquisition. Her field is smaller than that of Miss Fuller. but there is every reason to believe that she will be busily em- ployed in looking after the interests of fifteen hundred school children in some fifteen communities within radius of 100 miles of Juneau.

GARDNER, CAPTAIN OF AMERICAN
 GOLF TEAM, CALLED "BIG BERTHA'
Former Yale Pole Vaulter's Great Driving Power Is Marvel of Golf Links.

New York, April 28 (By the Asso- cinted Press) )--Robert A. (Bob) Gard ner, captain of the American amateur golf team now in England for the British amateur championship and Walker cup matches, is known as the "big Bertha of American links be- cause of his terrific driving power. He held the national amateur cham pionship for two years 1909-i5 and was runner up in 1916 and 1921. In 1920 at Muirheld, Scotland he came within a putting inch of being the sec ond American to lift the British anna teur title.
 Old Yale Pole Vaulter
 As a pole vaulter at Yale, Gardner developed the powerful wrist and forearm that made him one of the premier drivers of the world. He is a natural shot maker his work on the links appearing as devoid of effort as winking ones eye. A notable in stance of his great driving was his match with Jesse Guilford the siege gun" of Boston in the final round of the amateur championship at St. Louis in 1921. He outdrove Guilford on al- most every hole but was defeated by the Bostonian's uncanny putting.
 Always in Trim
 Gardner never trains for his golf. I'm always in trim" he explains. Training takes off the edge"
 Although a star golfer at Yale. Gardner did not shine in the national until 1909 when he tied for the medal in the qualifying round of the national amateur and among others eliminated Walter J. Travis former British and American title holder on the way to victory over H. c. Egan of Chicago another former champion in the final round.
 Gardner was eliminated in the first round of amateur title play in both 1911 and 1913 and reached the third round in 1914 losing to Francis Oui-

TRADE SCHOOL HOOP.
 T0SSERS LOOK GOOD
Did Not Win Pennant But Make
 Fine SeaSOn'S Record

New Britain Trade school just closed one of the hardest, if not the
 hardest, schedules in the history of the school. Starting out with several defeats the trade boys came through to make an even break of the season. Although they failed to win the Voca- tional school championship they did hold the fast Bridgeport team to a So-26 score after having played a hard game in the morning of the same day. Unable to secure school games the traders were forced to seek games with independent teams such as the Winsted Y. M c. A., Triangles. Morse Business College and St. Thomas Seminary. At the start of the sea- son there were three lettermen left, Witham, Kulikowslei and Laurinaitis. Later on Patrus and Capt. Anderson, both of whom were on the sick list, were able to join the squad. Under the leadership of Capt. Anderson the team showed a wonderful fighting spirit, never acknowledging defeat until the last whistle blew and then always having a cheer whether vic- torious or vanquished. Of last years vets Miller showed a most wonderful improvement and all round ability, but it was vettorello, a newcomer to prove the sensation of the team. Teamed with the veteran Kulikowski in the latter part of the season this lad helped from an almost impene- trable defense and also turned out to be a star dribbler. Bowen also proved to be valuable addition although
