School Notes

The school day for the 7th and sth grades has been heightened 45 minutes by continuing the work un- til 400 o'clock instead of dismiss sing at 3:15 as has previously been the custom. This makes the work day for the upper grades conform to the same hours as that of the high school However their working time is still thirty minutes less per day than is required of the high school students, since they have two recesses of fifteen minutes each and the high school students have none. The new schedule went into effect Monday morning as result of a conference between Principal Shum- way and Superintendent Hagie, looking toward more time for prepa- ration, in those grades, for the en- riched course of study which is be- ing put into effect this year. Be- sides the work in Manual Training which was offered last year, a course in Dramatic Art has been in troduced and time is being given to citizenship training along the lines of parliamentary practice and CO., operative participation in self gov ernment.

Petersburg Man
 frozen to Death

fetersburg passengers aboard the Alaska Wednesday brought news oi Hans Lee, who perished in thestorm last Saturday.
 Martin Enge, Knud Thompson, Hans Wick and Hans Lee left Peters burg last Saturday morning on the halibut boat Star for a deer hunt. They anchored the boat near Cap. Strait light on kupreanof Peninsula near Sockeye Island.
 The men had secured one deer when they saw the storm coming. They hastened down the mountain with the deer and found their skifi pounding on the rocks, with much of the ealking gone. They took off their socks and used them to calk the seams and thought they could make it out to where the Star was anchored, but a few feet from shore the boat filled and they were thrown into the water which was up to their necks. They got back tC shore and with the thermometer dropping and against the wind started to follow the rocky coast back to Petersburg. Their clothes were frozen to their bodies and the, were without socks. It was impossi- ble to build fire or secure shelter.
 They had not gone far when Lee collapsed. The others carried him over boulders and around cliffs un- til two more of the men weakened. The storm was increasing in inten sity and though all in the party were husky. capable outdoor men the ordeal was too much for them. Reluctantly they left Lee. now un- conscious, behind them and reached Harry Culp's ranch six miles from Petersburg after being out Is hours in the storm. They were badly frost bitten and could not possibly have lasted much longer.
 Boats left Petersburg Sunday tc bring back Lees body and to try tc salvage the Star but were unable tc land owing to breakers. The bod. ,of Lee was recovered Tuesday and was brought to Petersburg for bur ial.

MILLION AND HALF SALMON EGGS REACH
 SEWARD HATCHERY

With a million and a half king salmon eggs in his care, Supt. Karl Drager, of the Grouse Lake hatch cry, arrived on one of the last boats and safely transplanted his young charges in the hatchingtanks at the local plant MT. Drager also brought one million eggs for the Cordova hatchery and two million eggs were left in Ketchikan. The embryo fish came from Oregon andwere brought to Ketchikan by Supt. Wentworth of the Bureau of Fisheries, and after being given a short rest from tray- el, were safely transferred to the care of the local man. The eggs were kept alive by means of ice and wet moss, the moss being dampened oc- casionally.,
 MT. Drager believes that the kings placed in the local hatchery this week, will give Resurrection Bay a large supply of fish four years from now as the eggs are apparently hardy and already eyed.

 as far as Ketchikan with MT. Drager, continued on to Seattle, where she will visit for a time before return ing North-Ssward Gateway.

GRADE SCHOOL WINS
 BASKETBALL GAME
 FROM HIGH SCHOOL

On last Friday evening the bas' ketball teams of the Wrangel Schools played their first public game of the season. The attendance at the game was small due to tho fact that the evening was so cold The posters announcing the game had been out less than two days which may have also had an effect on the attendance.
 The evening opened with a "cur- tain raiser" by two teams of small CT boys from the grade school. The two groups are organized under tho names of Horseshoe Five and The Foxy Five. Those playing on the Horseshoe Five were Lloyd Benja- min and Sidney Tozier, forwards Gerald McGlinn and John Everson guards: and Albert Roaming, center The personnel of the Foxy Five wal Martin and Ingvald More, forwards; James Gleason and Andrew Dick guards; and Henry Bradley, center The Horseshoe Five got away with the long end of the score.
 The feature event of the evening was a game bteween the regular high school and grade school teams The teams are about as evenly matched as any two teams could be the grade team having the advan- taeg in weight and the high school boys the advantage in experience In practice the two teams have beer playing neck and neck, but in tho exhibition game the high school boys got started off on the wrong foot while the grade boys showed up in their best form and waltzed them around to the tune of final IT to score. The players and posi- tions were as follows:
 J. Wheeler F forward M. Goodrich L. Engstrom forward M. Loftus J. Waters center c. Callbreath J. Grant guard H. Bradley G. Case guard H. Bradley G. Case guard V. Hulse
 The game was a very interesting one and was closer than the score would indicate due to unusually hard luck on the part of the high school boys in shooting for baskets
