 The Anchorage girls put up a splendid fight in the second half but were apparently weakened by their efforts of the first period Nelson and Carlson both scored three field goals. Carlson was probably the in dividual star of the team breaking tip many of Stewards set plays before they got under way. Nelson and Snodgrass proved to be clever for wards and Staser an excellent guard.
 For Seward the individual honors unquestionably belong to Bert Nc Intosh. the backbone of the Seward offense. In spite of badly swollen neck gland, which would have kept many less plucky player on the side lines, she played a great all- round game, besides scoring the two winning baskets in the last two minutes of play. Elsa Larson also gave fine exhibition of clever floor work. Cecil Leslie and Katherine Neville were in the game all the time, breaking up everything that came their way.
 Nip" Johnson refereed to the sat- isfaction of all concerned. Three personal fouls were called on Sew ard, one on Anchorage. A technical foul was called on each team for breach of the substitution rule.

politicians at the conference, and
their coming is awaited with no little
interest.
DIR. and Mrs. Reinhold went to
Canada from Williamstown and,
after a series of visits there, will
make a tour of some important
American cities, reaching Wash.

Chicago home for few days. The
acquaintance Of General Dawes and
DR.. Reinhold began when the latter
was minister of finance Of Germany
and when the Vice President was
organizing the reparations plan to
which he gave his name.
1t soon ripened into friendship,
and both men are looking forward
to their second meeting. In Wash.

GOING HIM ONE BETTER.

"Alaskans should have more to say about t4e fisheries regulations than they are now permitted 10 say Senator .Bartey Howard told the tham- Der of Commerce Friday. The Empire has only one criticism to make Of that statement and that is il isn't strong enough. Alaskans should have the entire responsibility for controlling t fish cries industry They should he permitted to regli- late the industry without interference from any other source. II is their right by all precedent and by the force of all equitable argument.
 That some members of Congress take t1.s view is evidenced by q suggestion made on tho floor of the House of Representatives back in 1925 when the so-called White Fish Bill vas being discussed. At that time one Of the members of the House wanted to know if the whole quest 7n could not be turned to the Alaska Legts.a- ture to be handled by 1t. And Aaskas represen- tative vetoed the suggestion.

MEN WEAR SHOES LONGER

Men of the nation wearing their shoes a longer time this year than last year and that fact has the shoe style artists worrying More shoes and not less is their slogan. Last year, it has been estimated by statsticians employed by the manufacturers of foot wear, the average American man bought only 2.1 pairs of shoes as against 2.6 the year before Something must be done about it. but what to do?
 At meeting of representatives of manufact- urers and retailers held in New York recently, member of the Scope and Plan Committee gave three principle reasons why less shoes were worn by men: They forced to give women more money to buy shoes and had less to spend for their own; they slouch hats and bag coats which led to general carelessness in dress; the motor car has made for less walking and hence less need for shoes.
 The causes having been determined, the shoe manufacturing industry should follow the well recognized practice of removing them if it de- afras to remedy the resultant evil of which com plaint is made If they remove the first that is or {, merated the Order of Benedicts will rise uI ma call them blessed, but it and the third seen b.yond hope of remedy.

PHEAsANTs ARE PROTECTED.

While there were no Chinese pheasants in Alaska at the time the Alaska Game Law was passed in 1925 under the provisions of that statute. it seems apparent that they may not be killed legally until the Alaska Game Comms- sion permits that killing by regulation. Section eight of the law says, in part:
 That, unless and except permitted
 by this Act or by regulations made per
 suant to this Act, it shall be unlawful
 for any person to take. possess, trans
 port, sell, offer to sell, purchase or
 offer to purchase any game animal, land
 fur-bearing animal, wild bird, etc.
 Pheasants, as game birds. certainly come under the provisions of this section. By regua- ton the Commission has permitted the killing of certain game birds during specified seasons each year Any variety of game birds or game which is not mentioned in the regulations is protected.
 Protection for pheasants. which were brought here as an experiment by MT. w. w Taylor, + not necessary as far local sportsmen are con cerned The birds running at large will be as safe from them as though they were still penned It may be that there few thoughtless ol irresponsible individuals of the welknown game hog" variety, who might not hesitate to pot ont of the birds if the opportunity offered Against such hunters. closed offers the only protection With a good stin sentence staring them in the face should they be detected ant convicted if there be such persons, they vii hesitate to kill even if the opportunity offers Certainly there will be no deliberate hunting b, them.

The showing of the Alaska Railroad on freight hauage in 1922 is particularly gratifying when compared to the haulage of the railroads m the States where the huge tonnage carried in the first six months of the year showed an increase of only 1. 91 per cent over the first six months Inf the nrevious year while the Alaska roads in crease over the previous year in freight revenues was over 25 per cent.
 statement by the Interstate Commerce Commission shows that the freight tonnage car ried during the first six months or the year Was 191 per cent greater than in the first hali Iof 1926.
 The showing of the Alaska road of an in crease in excess of 20 per cent over the average increase of the freight carriers in the States lis indeed gratifying
