Working the ball to position di-

often intermixed these short at

which swished cleanly through the
basket. Lindbeck and Simonson With
~ and 10 goals each were especial

the hoop. Both counted on numer-
GUS occasions from seemingly I'M
possible positions. Dinsmore also
had an agreeable evening, scoring
six times. His floor work was essen

Kowalke and Somrock held the
heretofore strong scoring combina-
ton of Virginia at bay and only
by some excellent shooting was the
visiting aggregation able to score.
Most of their attempts were hurried,
long, hit or miss, affairs and Gilmore
secured FIVE of them. Both guards
contributed to the offense and put
in their best evenings work to date.
Ely got off to whirlwind start.
Lindbeck scored on a tip-off play
and after the next lineup Dinsmore
secured the ball and shot Ely's sec
ond goal. At the end of the quar-
ter Ely led 14-4. Simonson went
on a scoring spree in the next

. Junior College Win. One.

The Ely Junior College brought
their losing streak to an end when
they nosed out Coleraine at the lat
ter's city 20-19 Saturday night.
At Virginia Ely lost 32-17 Friday
night.
Virginia had things their own way
and romped to an easy victory but
at Coleraine. Ely played their best
ballS Of the season to win. Harri
wass strong on shooting scoring IL
markers. Mccarthy and Luhtanen
played good floor games. Although
Ely led at half time they were over
taken, but two free throws in the
final minutes gave the locals their
first victory of the season.

Crippled II. S. Team Loses.

Playing without the services of
Pluth and Anderson, two regulars,
Ely bowed to the strong Two lar
bors high school team at the Agate
Bay town Friday by a 29-14 score.
The North Shore men got OF to
q good start by taking advantage of
the evident nervousness and mex
perience Of the substitutes. Ely
played their adversaries on even
terms in the second and third quar-
tiers but in the other sessions Two
Hsrbors scored heavily. The Ely
team seemed unable to. work to-
gether and were weak on the de-
Tense. With a great advantage in
weight Two Harbors benefited by
the leniency Of the referee in the
rough game that ensued.
Two Harbors scored two baskets
shortly after the opening whistle and
at the end of the first period was
leading Ill. In the next period
Ely outseored their opponents & to
5 but still trailed 1917. The third
period was also evenly contested

The Alaska fisherman., 1925-05-15

Was Henry O'Malley aware of this fact? Did he pu1posely put the line at 58-4O to protect the Eldred Rock Trap?
 This trap belongs to the Alaska Consolidated Canneries, alias the Bank of California. The nearest cannery was at Tee Harbor. It burned last August 3rd. The watchman at the Eldred Trap was withdrawn but the trap not closed. When the storms came that destroyed the Eldred Rock trap, fishermen in that dis trict estimate that at least 15OOO salmon were destroyed with the trap; about 100000 pounds of salmon
 The annual pack of the Haines Packing Co.,, owned by small local capital, is 10000 cases, and requires about 15OOOO salmon to fill the entire pack. This cannery has been closed by that order of O'Maley's which closes fishing at 58-4O for that cannery is supplied entirely by native Indian fishermen. All this in the interest of conservation (of the Eldred Rock Trap). The waste of this one trap was enough to put up the entire pack of the small cannery at Haines.

Tt Appears Somebody Did Lie"

Tt Appears Somebody Did Lie"
 So begins an editorial in the ketchikan Alaska Chronicle in their issue of April 28, 1925
 Across the entire front page, the headline reads "GRAND JURY REFUTES SUFFER- LAND,'' and in subheadng says, Statements Made by Sutherland, Paul and Hunt' "Solely for Political and Spiteful Purposes; "Officias Held To Be Working Faithfully for Law Enforcement.
 We print the Grand Jury report elsewhere. Let us go on with the editorial, ''It appears somebody did le.'
 '"The grand jury of the United States district court, which completed it's labors yesterday, brought in report in which it emphatically stated Ketchikan is not town of laWlessness and corruption as stated by Delegate Dan Suth erland in a communication which he published in the Congressional Record and reiterated by Senator Forest J. Hunt and Representative William L. Paul in the halls of the legislature at Juneau.
 Instructed by Judge T. M. Reed, presiding over the court, to investigate, to if the laws being flagrantly violated, the grand conclusion found that there was utterly and ab- solutely no foundation for the charges of the Alaska representative in the national congress. Further, the grand jury even went so far as to conclude that these statements by Delegate Sutherland and Messrs. Hunt and Paul were solely for political and spteful purposes
The Alaska fisherman., 1925-05-15

commended. They hit the nail on the head and they had the courage to place the blame where the blame belonged
 And so the editorial ended.
 Two days after the Grand Jury had made it's report and after this editorial was published in the Ketchikan and Juneau papers, the Ketchikan Alaska Chronicle printed the following news item-not on the first page, or with large scare lines, but the last page in rather smaller type, and in the Juneau Empire, not at all: TWO INJURED IN SHOOTING HERE TODAY" Also, Mrs. Tiny Walker and Mrs. Ruth Bland Shot by Man in Early Morning."
 Hamilton told the police this morning that the two women had robbed him of two $2O gold pieces while guests at a farewell party given board his house boat last evening""
 The Ketchikan Chronicle was thoughtful enough to add:
 ''Police officers assert that Hamilton was per- fectly sober with evidence of having indulged in any intoxicating beverage"
 We should have thought that the whitewash just applied by the Grand Jury would have been enough to prove that no intoxicating liquor could have been imbibed by MT. Hamilton.
 The editorial Tt appears somebody did ie' was printed on April 28 The shooting occurred and reported April 30.
 We agree with the title of the editorial, for ill truth "TT APPEARS SOMEBODY DID LIE.'
 The Juneau Empire is pressing for full Terri torial form of government. If reports are to he credited it would appear that part of the last Ter ritorial government was full all the time-An- chorage Alaskan.
 Seattle cannot help thinking that Alaska exists for Seattle and all government should shape itself for the edificatOn of Seattle.
 The problem of building a greater Alaska is very simple. Alaska for Alaskans is the slogan.

Those who claim to be 1OO@ Americans have given themselves hard job, for the ideals of the perfect citizen are as high as the perfect Christian.
