More Than 200 Boats in Wrangell'S
 Mosquito Fleet

A few days ago couple of local citizens, including a member of the town council, counted more than 200 gas boats in Wrangell harbor at one time Doubtless some of these boats were transients. Yet no one doubts that an increasing num- Der of boats are making Wrangell their home port.
 There is plenty of evidence that boat owners appreciate the fact that light, water, and telephone are available at the municipal float back of the breakwater. Local mer- chants report an increase in busi- ness since the float has been con- nected with town by an auto road. From present indications it is not unlikely that the size of the present float will have to be increased, and already one hears the suggestion from boat owners that they would like to see an extension built to the breakwater in order to afford protection for a larger number Of boats.

OFFICIAL ITINERARY OF GRAF ZEPPELIN ON
 ITS ARCTIC FLIGHT

An official itinerary of the route of the Graf Zeppelin when it begins it's Arctic flight, has just been re- ceived through the state and inte- rior departments. Three flights are proposed, the routes covering 5,2O0 to 7,200 meters. The initial flight will be between some north ern point in Norway, Varangel, Kirkeness or Tromso, to Fairbanks. It will start in April 1880, flying across the Arctic regions on the Greenland-American side of the pole to Fairbanks. There it will take on gas and supplies and re- turn to the Arctic, exploring the inner section of the unknown area towards the North Pole. Complet- ing that work it will return to it's base at Fairbanks. After taking on fresh supplies, it will take off on it's homeward flight. On this it will journey across the Arctic regions on the Siberian side of the pole, surveying the unknown Mich olas II Land, then returning to it's starting point in Norway and then back to it's home in Freder- shafen, Germany.
 The Zeppelin has a radius of ac- tion of 12,0O0 meters. Instruments are now being installed on the Graf Zeppelin for scientific investi- gations. A committee of fifteen Of the leading scientist of the world is experimenting this work, and after they are completed tests will be made in trial flights. Plans for the establishment of both perma- nent and temporary stations for Arctic observations are also being laid by the committee.
