the porch of the Church of the Ascen-

the worshipers. DIR. Grant naively
explained that through some conspir-
acy or other against him the book has
not been selling SO fast as he could
wish, hence he was giving the church
goers an opportunity to get it, so to
speak, between prayers.
No sooner had the pious been prop
erly sDoked by this ecclesiastical
craftsmanship than the heritical re-
ceived shock of equal dimensions.

AED CAMPBELL TOO
 HEAVY FOR PRESCOTT

According to word received from | xetchikan Red Campbell proved to be too heavy for Ralph Prescott in the bout which took place in Ketchi- kan on the afternoon of Thanksgiv- ling Day. Upon reaching Ketchikan | it was found that Campbell was more than 50 pounds heavier than Prescott. However, Prescott was game enough to go into the ring with the odds greatly against him, both as to weight and reach. The bout was stopped in the fourth round as it was evident that the men were so unevenly matched that there was no hope of Prescott get ting the decision. Technically, this gives Campbell credit for having made another knockout.
 A recent issue of the Ketchikan Chronicle makes the following refer ence to Campbell's record:
 Knocked out Jess Engram. welter- weight champion of Northern Cali fornia and Southern Oregon in five rounds of 10-round bout; a To- round decision over George Fiddler; six and four round decision over Sewall Deane, welterweight cham pion of Idaho; Ground decision over Red Gallagher; six round decision I
 over Boy McCaslin; knockout of Robbie Wagner in the sixth round of a 10-round bout; knockout of George Eagles in fifth round of a 10-round bout; draw with Ran Miller of Spo- kane in six rounds; two six round decisions over Soldier Woods; draw for Truman Davis in six rounds; stepped Lem Lumsky in fourth round of a 10-round go; six rounds with Frisco Al Smith.
 Met young Mccarthy, champion of the state of Oregon five times. Lost the first decision in the sixth round. Won the second by a knockout in the
 fourth round Lost the third bout in the fifth round on a foul. Won the fourth decision in 10 rounds. The fifth fight ended in hard fought draw.
 Red" Campbell has met other men but this foregoing is sufficient 10 show that his young life has been fairly busy with those who know how to use their fists. Despite his lrecord there are those in Ketchikan who have seen Mickey Prescott in action who believe that he will give more than he will take when the two men meet in Ketchikan Thanks giving day to decide the middle weight championship of Alaska.

AN ALASKA RAILROAD IS TROUBLED BY HILL THAT
 REFUSES TO STAY PUT

We read about the hills that walk in China, and marvel, says the Me Carthy News, yet in the Copper Riv- CT Valley we have hill that is creeping, and take it as a matter of course. At any rate the officials oi the Copper River & Northwestern railroad would be enchanted if the hill at Mile 127 would quit creeping and learn to walk or get infantile paralysis or something just so long as it would not interfere with the train schedule. Trains are continu- ally being delayed by sliding rock Far up on the mountain side there is a six-foot crack that is slowly open ing, and below the creyasse there are thousands of tons of loose rock which continually works toward the track

ALASKA'S WILD LIFE ONE OF TERRITORY'S VALUABLE
 ASSETS, SAYS MIR. WALKER

One phase of the value of Alaska Wild Life not generally appreciated by Alaskans is shown in figures re- gently compiled by the Biological Survey.
 In response to a Questionaire sent by the Biological Survey, forty-four outside sportsmen who have hunted in Alaska on fifty-two trips reported expenditures in Alaska totaling |s1O7.5S6.50. Of this s5,001 was for licenses and export fees. The re- maining s102,5S5.5O was paid to Alaskans for guides, outfits. trans portation. curios, etc This averages s1,972.S7 per trip. -312 game ami mals were taken, at an average cost |of s32S.79 per animal.
 Of the forty-four individuals who reported seven have since become fi- nancialiy interested in the Territory.
 It is pointed out by MT. Walker of the Biological Survey, Juneau Office. that the money derived from this source is at no cost to Alaskans and by properly building up the game supply it can become a still greater attraction. By advertising to let it be known that Alaskans have the greatest wild life field remaining today we can profit much more than we have in the past.
 The returns received are from only small portion of the hunters who have been to the Territory the past few years.
 Scientific explorations and photo- graphic expeditions which spend as much or more were not included in the returns.

LEGION FILM RECEIVED
 WITH APPRECIATION

No film was ever before brought to Wrangell which drew such crowds as 'The Man Without a Country, /" that wonderful dramatization of Ed ward Everett Hale's story of the same name, which was presented in Wrangell last Thursday as part of the Legion's Americanization cam |paign.
 In the afternoon the picture was shown in the Starland Theatre free to the pupils of the Wrangell Public Schools, and this marvellous picturi- zation held the attention of the |young people from start to finish. In the evening the hall was again packed, this time with adults Before the first scene was thrown on the screen Captain Dancey made a short
 address in which he expressed his deep appreciation of the interest
 that had already been manifested in
 the Americanization program. He
 made no appeal for any contribution
 or special sacrifice All he asked was
 that we should be good clean cut
 Americans, true blue, and not tinged with pink, red, green. yellow, or
 ange or any other color.
 While the picture was being shown
 Carl Stoeckel was at the piano and
 furnished music appropriate for the
 many different situations shown on the screen.
