COAL DEALERS
TRIAL DELAYED
Ordinance Against Misuse
of Names Attacked.

without bringing his client into
court, Bernard Stroyman, attorney,
obtained a second continuance in
Municipal Judge Paul G. Wetter's
court today for H. H. Page, Negro
coal dealer and cousin of Rufus
Page, Negro Republican politician.
Page is charged with substituting
lower grade of coal for Pocahontas.
Continuance until Nov. 80 was
granted, when Stroyman pointed out
that the circuit court appeal of Paul
Hughes, from municipal court con-
viction on a similar charge, has
not be decided.
Page operates the H. H. Page, Red
River and Meridian Coal Companies.
The charge against him came IN
City Coal Inspector Charles A.
Howe's drive against short-weigl1t
and Misrepresentation by coal deal
ers.
1.-THE ordinance under which Page
was arrested clearly is invalid"
Stroyman contended, "for it is dis
criminatory in not applying to The
sale OF coal in lots of under 100
pounds or in car load lots. Its pro-
visions, therefore, apply only to the
middle class dealer
Stroyman will carry appeal to the
United States courts if municipal and
county courts do not acquit Page OF

JUNEAU LOSES LAST BATTLE,
 BY 12-5 SCORE
Play Tight Ball but Weak en in Last Half of Telling
 Basketball Game

Petersburg last night defeated the Juneau High School cagers by a score of 12 to 5, winning the Southeast Alaska Conference bas- ketbal title and cup, and the right to meet Fairbanks for the Alaska high school championship. It was a sensational battle all the way and the Hilltoppers lost largely through the effectiveness of Pe- tersburg's checking and their own inability to shoot either from the foul line or the field.
 Last nights victory gave Pe- tersburg two out of the three games played, the visitors winning the first and last with the locals taking the second game.
 Defense Game
 The game last night was played largely on defense by both teams. Both combined made but single point in the first 20 minutes of play, Petersburg scoring on gift throw while Juneau missed several from the foul line. The first half ended with Petersburg leading on a one to nothing score.
 The Hilltoppers speeded up on the offensive in the second half at the expense of their defense. Su- perior shooting by their opponents kept them in the lead with two or three point margin at all stages.
 Petersburg Scores First
 The first counter of the game was by Kahklen when he converted on foul by Nelson about one min- ute after the match started. Soon after making the one pointer Kah- k1en fouled and then Nelson had a chance to even up. but missed wide. Mcdonald then fouled Brandt who failed to toss through the hoop. Score at first quarter, To.
 Fouls that were to mark the match began to show up. Nelson personaled and Mjorud failed to 
 convert. Juneau at this point had a closeup opportunity but J. Orme, after working through, shot wild. Mjorud fouled J. Orme, who at the try, failed. Kahklen then fouled and Nelson missed. Half end, score 10.
 Things went a little differently starting the last half Juneau start ed a more aggressive game that re- suited in some scores for her, but thus weakening her guard gave the visitors the awaited chance, which easily kept Petersburg's score in the lead.
 Mcdonald made the first field of the event, then after not a minute

of play made One-pointer on a foul by Berggren. Mjorud fouled, J. Orme, who missed. Juneau could. not find it's shooting eye for the foul shots. J. Orme after the miss, came in with a field, the first pointer for his home team, and soon after Wasvick did the same for the visitors, which left the score just about the same ratio. Mcdonald fouled Nelson, who con- verted then he turned around and made a slip on Mac who converted which still left the chalked up dope on the same basis. F. Orme failed to convert on foul by Kahklen, then Wasvick made an error and J. Orme made both resulting free throws. Third quarter ended 7-5 for Petersburg.
 The last period was about the same. Brandt fouled and Mjorud missed. Runstad made a field and soon after this play Mcdonald did the same, which raised their scores materially. Runstad fouled and Brandt missed; then Mjorud fouled and Brandt missed again With the score 11-5 and with 30 seconds to go Petersburg called time out. Starting, the visitors played tight game, apparently content to let matters stand "as was" On a foul by Brandt Runstad made the last counter of the game, one-pointer conversion. Game score, 12-5.

 head toward the arrows caused some comment and later was looked upon as prophetic. President Hard ing and President Coolidge retained the war presidents standard un- changed but whether MT. Hoover may desire a change in view of the symbolism remains to be seen.
 All the flags for the president are made by hand, expert seamstress- es embroidering the coat-of-arms. Their task, they say, is not with out it's thrills. Miss Jean Erskine claims the honor of having worked on the flags of three presidents Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson.
 President Wilson's flag which has done service for three administra- tions, has blue field with the coat -of-arms in the center and four white stars at right angles well within the field Feathers of the eagle are white shaded with black, another point in which the Wilson flag differed from those of his predecessors.

Women Employed
 At Local SawmilI

Women were employed for the first time in the sawmill history in Alaska when a small crew was put to work last week in the Wran- gell Lumber & Box Go.
 The local mill is getting out an order of butter, cheese and poultry boxes for shipment to middle west points. The boxes are made mostly from salmon box waste, and besides utilizing the waste they provide an additional payroll. Women are par ticularly adapted for this form of work which requires accuracy and deftness in handling the small pieces with a minimum of muscular effort.
 N Nussbaumer, manager of the company, states that he has inaugu- rated this work with the hope that it will develop into a year round payroll.

MILLION DOLLARS OPIUM DISCOVERED LUGGAGE
 WIFE CHINESE OPTICAL

SAN FRANCISCO, July 9.-Three thousand tins of opium worth one mihion dollars at retail prices were found by Customs officials last night in the luggage of Mrs. Ting Kao, wife of the Chinese vice consul here.
 The Customs officials opened sev- en large wardrobe trunks and four suitcases in the presence of the Chinese vice consul and his wife. In addition to the opium the off cers are said to have discovered hundreds of pieces of expensive silks and fine laces upon which no duty was being paid. The trunks were placed in the liquor vaults at the Appraisers building, and Mrs. Ting and her young husband were permitted to leave.
 Mrs. Ting professed ignorance of the contents of her luggage, she told officers saying they were the property of friends in China who influenced her to use her diplomatic privileges to bring the baggage into this country.

NEW HARRINGTON HOME
 SHOWN IN SUNDAY TIMES

The Seattle Sunday Times of July 7th carries a picture of the new home of Captain and Mrs. S. c. Burlington at 1426 11th Ave. w, Queen Anne hill. The nine-room house was built last winter for their Seattle residence under the direc- tion of Mrs. Harrington. It is of Spanish design with stucco exterior and is lovely throughout. The liv- ing room is twenty-six by twenty nine feet and has a fireplace four feet, six inches in width. The lot on which the Barringtons built their new home is on the bluff fronting Elliott Bay and is one of the most desirable locations in Seat tie as it commands a full view of the bay and the Olympic Mountains in the distance. Caretakers have charge of the premises this sum- mer but at the close of navigation on the Stikine this fall Captain and Mrs. Harrington will furnish and occupy their new home where they say their greatest joy will be in acting as hosts to their friends and neighbors of the North when visit ing Seattle.

MISS CHISHOLM ENJOYS
 INTERESTING SCENIC TRIP

Miss Dorothy Chisholm, daughter of MT. and Mrs. L. B. Chisholm, will be home the latter part of this month and will spend the remainder of the summer vacation in Wran- gell. Following the close of school she took passage from Juneau in company with friends for trip to westward and interior points. She left the boat at Seward and went by rail to Anchorage where she spent week. She continued her trip to Fairbanks and Mt. Mckinley Park, stopping a night at Curry. She was in Fairbanks on the 26th day of June which that city cele- brates annually with daylight game of baseball played at mid night. She came back to the coast by way of the Richardson highway to Chitina and from there by rail to Cordova. Miss Chisholm is now camping at Lake Eyak, near Cor dova, where she is the guest of Mrs. Ray Douglas, a former Ketchikan teacher.

ARRIVES IN SKIN BOAT
 FEN ROUTE NEW YORK CITY

Flying the German and American colors, Al Voight of Hartonstein, Germany, arrived here Wednesday morning in a 16-foot boat made of walrus skin over canvas. While the boat is of the Eskimo kayak type it was built in Germany with many improved features over the strictly Eskimo model.
 Voight came north the latter part of May from Los Angeles. His objective was to paddle from Sew ard to New York City via the Pan anna Canal, and to that end he set off from Seward the first of June. After battling with a choppy sea for week or more he returned to Seward and engaged passage to Ju- neau on a steamer.
 Leaving Juneau June 26th, Voight says it took him about five and one-half days to Petersburg as he encountered stormy weather and head winds all the way. On Tues day, he was able to use his sails for the first time, and left Peters burg about 3:30 Tuesday afternoon arriving in Wrangell at nine We'd nesday morning. Voight says he can make about three miles an hour padding when the tide Is with him and about five or six with the sails. He expects to arrive in New York in a year, although to do so, he may have to go across Nicaragua instead of through the Panama canal. He may remain in Wrangell until tomorrow.

TEAM MEETS DEFEAT
 AT KETCHIKAN

The revamped Ketehikan base ball team took the Wrangell club into camp last Sunday to the tune of seven to nothing. The score does not tell true story of the game. Too many errors for Wran- gell, coupled with some mighty fine pitching by Tom Smith proved too much for the local boys. Tom Smith pitched perfect ball, no man receiv- ing walk from him; also his sup port was functioning like the Phil adelphia Athletics are doing in their march toward the American League banner. According to the press box reports Ketchikan had two earned runs while the rest were gathered on errors. However, re- gardless of this, the First City's Club was one of the prettiest seen in ac- tion for some time in this neck of woods. George Fabricious pitched a good game of baseball, good enough to win any game if he had had some hitting behind him, but the best pitching in the world cannot win baseball games alone. Abbie Garn put up a nice exhibition of hitting, batting 1000 per cent in four times at bat, while he also had perfect fielding day, handling every chance without an error.
 Ed Doran, the go-geIter manager of the local club, has made tempor-
 ary arrangements with the ketchi- kan club for a return game in the latter part of August when the fsh- ing season is closed, and if the plans are completed the game will be some battle as the local club will have several of it's strongest players back who were unable to make the trip. Ketchikan has promised to bring a big crowd of supporters along if it comes.

KetChikan Gives Wrangell Visitors
 Royal Reception

If you belonged to the Boys Band, or played baseball, or had planned to go to Ketchikan to see the big game. you were up early Saturday morning, for between the hours of five and six, all who came under the above classification were busily astir. Those who did not, and are able to awaken at that hour, knew what was going on by the music on the street, by the hurry ing from homes and by the activity around the mill dock where the Ruby and the Edward Schenck lay in waiting. At six-thirty the start was made, and 76 persons were on their way for a visit to a neighbor- ing city. a days travel by water on a huge scow ahead of them.
 It was fine trip according to all reports. A piano, in fact full orchestra for dancing; band, lunches, hot dogs and coffee; a hol- iday mood and smooth water made the trip delightful, and their desti- nation was reached at 7:30, Wran- gell time. A rousing and spectacu- lar reception awaited them at Ketchikan. A brass band, fire works and crowds of the citizens gave them a royal welcome and from then on the city was theirs, The first event was big dance af- ter their arrival, free to the Wran- gell people, and those who were not too tired after the days travel en- joyed it to the limit.
 Members of the Boys Band may like Wrangell best yet, for there is no place like home, but it was great to get soda-pop and ice cream and a ride to the ball ground, etc., abso- lutely without charge. A picture that ought to be good was one taken of these members seated on empty boxes outside fruit stand, faces quite buried in thick, luscious slices of watermelon. Ketchikan was sure good to them.
 Wrangell was we'll represented in Ketchikan for in addition to those who went down on the Ruby, a crowd left here Saturday afternoon on the Queen Others, including Mayor Diemart, intended to go down by plane later in the day but the plane failed to come in. A number of the seow passengers waited over for the Alaska and re- turned Tuesday evening.

Presbyterian Church High School Quarters
 For Coming Year

The question of where to locate the upper and high school grades of the school next year has been pressing one with the school board and Of paramount importance to parents ever since the old build ing that has been a makeshift for so long was condemned, and d num- Der of available buildings have been given full consideration. Many things had to be considered, such as lighting, ventilation, heating cost, location, accessibility and suf- ticient room and privacy for the various classes.
 For some time it has been known that negotiations were being car ried on for the use of the Presby- terian Church and the announce ment is now being made that it has been secured and that it has been definitely decided to use it tempor- arily for a school, week days.
 The changes and additions which must be made even for a tempor- ary location will be decided upon at a joint meting of the school board and city council and an- nounced later. The main auditor ium of the church will be used for an assembly hall and the adjoining rooms for class rooms, and it is gen erally felt that the choice of this building is the best one possible under the circumstances. Since the arrangement is one of temporary nature, alterations that are abso- lutely necessary will be kept at a minimum. cost.
