Bartley Howard Wants To Succeed Dan
 Sutherland

As predicted by the Petersburg Alaskan published by the Alaska Native Brotherhood, Bartley Howard announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination to succeed Dan Sutherland in Congress-
 Many things are revealed to the writer by this announcement. The queer antics of Bartley Howard at the last legislature, his chest mess, his sureness, all these are now known to have sprung from the plan worked out in Juneau, to- wit; that Bartley Howard has been selected by the Juneau politicians to be the man to destroy Dan Suth- erland and his followers.
 But for a man who seeks public endorsement, We ask, why did he cause the defeat of the Controller Bill, that measure which merely gives the people of Alaska the right to elect their own Treasurer, their own Secretary, and their own Controller exactly as Howard now wishes done for himself?
 Bartley Howard is the candidate of the Canneries, the fish trust, the trap interests, and big capital in it's worst sense. Tn his announcement. he promises in advance to be good dog and give Alaska away to

ney for the first time, showed some sense, when he came over to Dick Sundquist and asked his help. Sund- quist quickly wrote a bill, submit ted it to General Steese, secured his approval of it, submitted it to the House, and got UNANIMOUS consent to advance the bill, and it was passed UNANIMOUSLY. I'm here to tell the people of Nome that Dick Sundquist is worker Calf ney tries to club his way through and wonders why he fails, while Dick smiles his way through).
 ''The senate passed the House measure changing the Territorial system of refunding money to schools increasing territorial school aid to eighty-fve per cent"
 Of this were a Gaffney bill, he would have said, '"The Senate pass ed the Gaffney bill increasing aid to schools to eighty-five per cent But since the bill was introduced by William L. Paul, of course Tom gives no credit. The increase to the city of Nome through Pauls bill amounts to $2,OOO; Juneau and Ketchikan get the largest amount, $1O,OOO although their percentage is the lowest, about 658o. MT. Paul tried to get the refund increased to 9O%, but Lomen and others oppos- ed it. We seriously doubt if Lomen and Gaffney would have opposed the bill if it were proposed in crease for the Lomen Transporta- tion and Reindeer Corporation. This business of giving greater aid to public schools doesn't have the "direct" appeal to some statesmen.)
 TT MAKES A DIFFERENCE
 (The ship subsidy for the Lomen Transportation Company had the unanimous support of Lomen, Calf ney and Rydeen. But when the bill subsidizing a line to run from Ju- neau to Prince Rupert connecting with the railroad there, a service that is not given because of Seattle opposition, was before the House,

 tT have just completed an ex- tensive tour of Alaska" he said (although he never set foot in Southeastern Alaska) and "T am convinced the people of the Terri tory desire a change in the Dele- gate to Congress"
 He made this announcement in Nome, just after consulting with Ralph Lomen and Company who un- dOubtedly promised him the major ity of the 738 votes cast in the Nome Division. Lots of power that division has. There was time when enemies of labor like Tom Gaffney, Ralph Lomen, "Slim" Ry- deen, and Tom Jenson, could not have been elected from that Divi- sioE. That was when John Wilson was alive; when Rev. Decker was there to warn the workers; when Charlie Brown looked the special interests in the eye.
 ''The people believe great results for Alaska can be obtained by Delegate in accord with the Admin istration at Washington" Bartley recites the piece written for him by the fish trust
 Let Candidate Howard who has consulted the Juneau Empire. with Senator John Dunn who betrayel his constituents, and the Reindeer herders, tell in detail what he means by being in "accord with the Ad- ministration at Washington"
 Does he mean that he will sup port the fish policies of Herber, Hoover? Does he endorse Henry O'Malley? Does he wish to continue the policy of bringing in fishermen from the Sound to catch over 75@o of all the fish canned in Alaska?

holes for his back field and stopped
practically every opposing play headed
his way Besides his regular line work.
Cary can be called upon to carry the
ball with considerable frequency, al
ways for good gain. He made two
touchdowns yesterday, one on a
straight line buck, the other on a
tackle-around play. Any all-state
team without Cary would be minus
the services of the best tackle in any
Arizona high school in the opinion of
local players. Maloney, who plays
right guard beside Cary, put out his
usual excellent game IND probably
has no superior at that position in
the state.
Douglas has a backfield comparable
to any in the state Cummins re-
turned to the form he displayed
against Mesa, gaining consistently and
stopping everything on defense that
came his way Two thrilling features
of the day were provided by Cunlnins.
Once he intercepted a NogaleS pass
and ran SO yards through a broken
field for touchdown. On another oc-
casion he carried the ball on a cross
buck 40 yards for touchdown. Every
time Cummins carried the ball it re-
quired from two to four tacklers to
stop him.
Hoods generalship was smart, he
made one touchdown and came near
making another after receiving pass.
Miller, chunky halfback, looked very
good today. He gained consistently
from scrimmage and his return Of
punts was the best seen in this state
for several years. On the return oil
every punt Miller lodged, pivoted and
sped his way back through broken
field for long gains Miller was too
slippery for the Nogales boys, throw
ing off as many as half dozen tack
.lers sometimes before they could stop

will make all-state, possibly two

The program provides for the main
event of 10 rounds and the three pre-

WILDCATS CLAW
BRUINS TO WIN
BY score 1918

TUCSON, Nov. 10 lP-With the
eyes of Arizona upon them, the Ari-
zona Wildcats scratched and claweo
the University of California at Los
Angeles Bruins into submission, break
ing tie in the last minute of play
with perfect place kick by Milton
Morse, quarterback, to win 16 to 13
The thrilling climax to a brilliant
game as 1000 spectators, many of them
graduates back for home coming day,
clamored for a touchdown after the
Wildcats had come back in the last
period to tie the score
The locals were at their best. RED"
Crouch, one of the best fullbacks that
has ever donned the moleskins at Ari-
zona, was there with his slashing
drives at the line, and he could not be
stopped 1t was Crouch who carried
the ball over for the two touchdowns.
He was always good for yards when
they were needed.
However the victory came as a re-
suit of chances, Arizona punted often,
Diebold averaging 35 yards for the
afternoon. When the punch was
needed, though, the Wildcats had just
a little more fight and with an ad-
vantage of warm weather, that ex-
hausted the Bruins, they won the
game
The Bruins scored early in the first
quarter when pass netted 35 yards,
and another Immediately following, to
La Brucherie, was good for 20 yards
and touchdown. Fleming converted.
