 townsite trustee to forward his check covering the forest townsite refund to the Terri torial Road Commissioners, 50 that the funds would be avail able for use with the remain der of the legislative appropri- ation.
 s. P. Fitzgerald thought it might be a good plan to carry the river through an adjacent creek channel, instead of thru the slough, the former chan nel being somewhat lower. It was decided after some discuss ion that the Sommers plan was the best. Mir. Fitzgerald also proposed a vote of thanks to Grover c. Vim, First division Representative, the Alaska Legislature, and such others as helped to secure the flood re- lief appropriation.
 William Gray asked if a ditch should not be dug into the slough from the river to assist in turning the stream. MT. Som- mers expressed the view that it would not be necessary, as the water could be turned by dragging out the debris and fip-rapping across the maiE stream.
 John Hovland warmly con- mended the plans offered by MT. Sommers. Arthur Moa also spoke in the same vein.
 A motion was then passed to the effect that the Chamber of Commerce endorse and back the Sommers plan to the full est extent possible. President Richenback then made a little talk on past troubles of the community in connection with the river and thanked MT. Som- mers for coming to it's rescue with practical plan for pre- venting future difficulties from the same source. In replying to the chairman MT. Sommers stated that U. s. Commission CT A. w. Fox had played an important part in securing the legislative appropriation while in Juneau. Thereupon the chair rendered MT. Fox the thanks of the Chamber. Judge Fox in reply said he was glad to lend such assistance as he could. He knew but little about the river, he said, but wanted it to keep it's place and not overrun Hyder.
 Following his arrival Sunday, MT. Sommers spent a large part of his time Investigating conditions along the river in company with MT. Evans. He left for Juneau Wednesday to make final arrangements for carrying on the river project and plans to again visit the camp later in the season.
 Work on the river will start as soon as possible and will be carried forward as fast as con- ditions permit. Herman Nich- ols, whose earlier experiences in connection with local at temps to curb the river make his services of especial value, has been engaged by MT. Ev- ans to act as overseer of the

EVENTS IN THE NORTH AS PORTRAYED IN THE
 PRESS OF ALASKA

F. c. McMullen, Seward busi- ness man, has been awarded the contract for the removal of 50 bodies of soldiers from four cemeteries in Alaska. The cemeteries in which some of the bodies have rested many years are at Eagle, Fort Gib- bon, at Tanana; Ft. Davis, in the vicinity of Nome, and at Ft. St Michael, at the mouth of the Yukon. The bodies will be reintered in outside military cemeteries.
 Word has been received in Wrangell of a new gold strike 45 miles south of Telegraph Creek. The discovery is said to have been made by Indians on a small, unnamed creek which empties into the Little Iskut. The discoverers are re- ported to have brought two ounces of gold into Telegraph Creek.
 One of the most complete bootlegging plants ever found in the Fairbanks district was seized recently by federal of- ficers, when they raided the home of Gabe Vendetti. In addition to a complete stilling outfit of 35-gallon capacity, the officers found over fifty gallons of moonshine and " quarts of beer. Vendetti was not at home and has not been seen since.
 The whole lower end of the business district of Ruby was wiped out in the big fire May The loss included more than a dozen buildings on both sides of the main street and the en- tire street would have been de- stroyed but for a sudden shift ing of the wind after the fire was we'll under way.

Sixth Installment Geology (continuedl

In the Salmon River area of the Hyder district there are beds along the international boundary east of Salmon River that strike northwest and dip steeply southwest; but in gen eral within the area covered by this report the trend of the folds of the bedded rocks, of the gneissic structure of the Texas Creek batholith, and of the schistose structure of the greenstones is within 20 deg rees of true east and is there fore completely out of har- mony with the prevailing structure of the surrounding country.
 The granodiorite that forms the core of the Texas Creek botholith has a marked fine banding or gneissic structure. There are many slickensided planes of movement within the rock; but thin sections examin- ed with the microscope usual ly show no evidence of crush ing or metamorphism such as might have produced the foli- ation. The gneissic or banded structure is due in large part to the parallel orientation of the conspicuous crystals of black hornblende and of the large phenocrysts of potash feldspar and therefore had its origin in flowage currents within the magma during its crystaliizat- ion and consolidation. As this foliation is of primary origin and strikes N. 600-9O0 E., it follows that the peculiar struct- ural trend of this area had it's inception prior to the intrusion

of the younger Coast Range magmas which formed the Hy- der quartz monzonite and the Boundary granodiorite. It is thought, nevertheless, that the prevalent approximately east west structure of the bedded rocks of this area is in consid- erable part due to the thrusts eXerted by the intrusion of these younger Coast Range magmas. The northeastern con- tact of the Coast Range batho- lith as a whole usually trends northwest, but in this area it swings around to more nearly east-west, probably as a result of the control exerted by the elder structure of the Texas Creek batholith and the sur- rounding rocks, which had a similar strike.
 There is abundant evidence of the great pressure exerted by the younger magmas at the time of their intrusion. The Texas Creek granodiorite along it's southern boundary adjacent to the Hyder quartz monzonite is partly or com pletely pulverized as a result of the pressure exerted by the intrusion of the magma that consolidated as the Hyder quartz monzonite and grades away from the contact through an augen gneiss into the nor nal granodiorite. To the west of the Texas Creek granodio- rite the Hyder quartz monzo- mite magma comes into con- tact with the graywacke-slatc division of the Hazelton group and produced in those rocks close folds overthrust toward the north. On the north side
Hyder weekly herald., 1929-07-20

of the area the magma of the Boundary granodiorite similar ly exerted a thrust upon the graywacke-slate division of the Hazelton group and produced close folds overturned toward the south. The bedded rocks were thus pinched between the Hyder quartz monzonite mag ma on the south and the Boundary granodiorite magma on the north, and the folds overturned ill opposite direct ions were the result. Micro scopic examination shows that locally, near the contacts with the intrusive masses, grains that compose the bedded rocks and the intrusive aplite dikes belonging to the Texas Creek batholith have been severely mashed and pulverized. It is probable that part of the schistose structure in the DOT phyry dikes associated with the Texas Creek granodiorite, the gneissic structure in some of the sulphide masses, and the crushing of some of the mineralized quartz veins also resulted from the pressure at tendant upon the intrusion of the younger Coast Range mag mas.
 On the cast side of Salmon River the contact between the Texas Creek batholith and the greenstones of the Hazelton group strikes about north. The gneissic structure of the grano- diorite, however, and the foli- ation of the greensboro both strike approximately east. The veins cross the structure of both rocks at an angle. There must have been, therefore, an epoch of marked deformation and folding slightly preceding and accompanying the intrus- ion of the Texas Creek batho- lith. Subsequently both the Texas Creek granodiorite and the Hazelton group were af- fected by a second epoch of de- formation accompanying the

intrusion of the Hyder quartz monzonite magma.
 The mapping is not sufficient ly detailed to indicate the gen. eral direction of strike of the porphyry dikes in the rocks of the Hazelton group. The gran odiorite porphyry dikes con- nected with the younger Coast Range intrusive rocks that cut both the Texas Creek granodi- orite and the Hazelton group, however, have in general a northwest strike ranging usu- ally from N. 2Oo w. to N. 7Oo w., but at some places their strike is northeast. In the dist rict to the north these dikes have a northwest strike.
 Hazelton Group
 General Character
 No fossils have been. found in the sedementary and volcanic beds of this area. The beds are assigned to the Hazelton group because of their lithologic sim- ilarity to the formations of that group to the southeast and north in British Columbia and because of similar structural relations to the Coast Range intrusive rocks. The Hazel ton group has been described by Ha :nson as consisting of a lower formation comprising volcanic turf, breccia, and flows of green or gray to purp- fish andesite rock and an up- per formation comprising arg illite, quartzite, and tuffa- ceous sandstone. The argillite of the upper division carries fossils which are referred to the Jurassic. The sedimentary and volcanic rocks found north of this area, on the British Col umbia side of the international boundary, are assigned by Schofield and Hanson to three conformable formations of probable Juarassic age.
 The greensboro, turf and vol canic breccia of the Alaskan side along the international boundary east of Salmon River are continuous with the similar rocks of the so-called Bear Riv- CT formation on the Canadian side and correspond to the low CT division of the Hazelton group.
 A bed resembling the Salmon River conglomerate of the Can adian Geological Survey was seen at one locality. This is a thin bed of fine conglomerate included in a porphyry dike at an altitude of about 4,5OO feet on the slope of Bear River Ridge east of the mouth of Thumb Creek. ~4S1s:-zs ez~
