 FIELD SURVEY

After a summer spent on the south end of Admiralty Isla d m aking subdivisional surveys, Charles P. Seelye, engineer, and a crew of seven men of the U. s. Public Surveys returned here this morning. In addition to the sub- divisions, a line was run across the island from Kootznahoo Inlet on Chatham Strait to Mole Harbor, Seymour Canal.
 The party traversed some entire ly new country, some of which showed no sign of having ever been explored by any white man before them. Lakes, some of them not shown on any existing map, were discovered. In crossing them, the party built its own boats and rafts.
 The surveys made this summer will facilitate the selection of pulp timber areas by the Cameron Chandlar syndicate and further materially the pulp and paper pro- gram of those interests when they begin to close contracts with the Government for timber supplies.

Seuenth Big Series for Old Muck Star
By ALAN J. GOULD
 GA. P. Sports Editor)


 NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-This will be the seventh worlds series for Ed ward Trobridge Collins over a per- iod of exactly 20 years, 1910 to 1929 but the first he has ever entered es a second stringer.
 Collins is back on the Mack board of strategy after g years n baseball, the longest stretch of service of any man still in uni form.
 The one-time Columbia short stop now spends his afternoons on the coaching line opposite third base instead of gliding about the keystone sack in action, but he is nevertheless an important cog in the machine of the new American League champions.
 There has been talk, ever since Collins returned to the Athletics in 1926, that he was slated to take over the managership when Mack was ready to step down.
 Collins played against the Chi cago Cubs in his first world series, in 1910, and turned in probably his greatest all-around performance Then only 23, the subsequent king of second basemen" batted .429 stole four bases. and shone with the rest of the Mack cast that beat the famous Chicago outfit in four out of five games.

Attractions At Theatres
BOB STEEL IS AT
 COLISEUM TONIGHT

Once again Bob Steele, FBO's young Western star protege, comes to the Coliseum tonight. With his daring horsemanship and his su- perb acting, young Steele consist ontly holds up his record of hard riding through fast-running, ac- tion-packed Western tales.
 In this picture Steele is ably SUD- ported by such actors and actresses as Dorothy Kitchen, George Bun ny, Leo White and Larry Fisher.
 The love interest is more than held in this picture of the early days of California when the Span iards held sway. The possibility of an unhealthy and unhappy mar riage of a beautiful Spanish girl to a coward from across the water and the final conquest of young Collins, played by Steele-forms the theme of this romance. 4

Change l

Heraclitus, the Greek philosopher, looked at the world and decided that its sole reality was change. Change was the only thing that he could be sure of = there was no other actuality
 So it IS with the communities that are served by this power company. People are always moving from one place to another; many of our GUS toners are installing new electrical appliances; industries are expanding or changing their plants; new streets are opened and the demand for cleo tricity IS constantly increasing.
 To keep abreast of these changes, to keep far enough ahead of them so that there will never. be any delay in delivering light and power where it IS needed and when 1t IS needed, this Company is forever changing.
 There can be no standing still in the business of supplying electric light and power.
