LUMBER MILLS
 ARE IN DANGER
 SAYS GARDNER
Paper Boxes Menacing &c., curity of Industry,
 Chamber Warned

Declaring that the security of the lumber industry of Southeast Alaska is threatened by the in- creasing popularity with cannery- men of paper cartons, c. T. Gard ner today urged the Juneau Cham Der of Commerce to take some posi- tive action at the October 18 con- vention of cannerymen at Belling- ham, Wash, in an effort to keep the business in the Territory.
 Unless the canners are induced to break away from the present trend toward using paper boxes the lumber industry of the Pan handle will be ruined within a few years, MT. Gardner asserted.
 Seventeen hundred persons, he said, are dependent on the lumber business. The capacity of the Southeast Alaska mills is 2,50O,O0C cases a year. This year 100000 cases were cut, while the estimated output for next season is 500,00C cases. In three years time there will be no boxes manufactured if the present trend is allowed to con- thus, acording to MT Gardner.
 As an example of the ruinous re- suits of the importation of paper b1voe NHr carJ,,ar told tho (sba n, Der that of the three leading mills in Southeast Alaska, only one, the Juneau Lumber Mills. operated the full season.

STRIVES
To SAVE MEET

CAGo, April 9.-Amos
Alonzo Stagg, veteran football
coach of the University of Chi
cago, today appeared to be ore
pairing a lone fight to save the
University of Chicago's national
prep basketball tournament.
Opinions advanced by author
tiles of three western conference
universities today indicated he
would obtain slight support from
the conference.
These three schools indicated
an approval of the attitude
against the basketball and track
meets taken by the North Ce:1-
tral Association of Colleges and
second schools.
Should members of the board
of physical culture and athletics
at the university acquiesce on
April 26 to the stand taken by
the North Central Association,
the National tournament which
Stagg has fathered for IL years
will die.
Stagg has announced that he
will fight to the finish to save
the meet.

BLOODY BATTLE
To FIELDS

CLEVELAND. April 9.-"It was
a tough fight to lose" Tommy
Freeman, battered welter aSpirant,
mournfully murmured today, as
he nursed the gashed lip that
carried him out after the fourth
round of his scheduled 12-round
non-title bout with Jackie Fields
last night, leaving the world vel.
terweight champ holding a tech
nical knockout decision.
He added:
But it was a great guy TO
lose to-"
Champion Fields and Freeman
fought a great and bloody fight
last night while it lasted, but it
didn't last long enough to suit
the fans. Through three rounds
Freeman battled as he never has
before. He belted the champion
around plenty and got belted too.
Close to the bell in the third,
Freeman jolted Fields with a
hefty left and right to the
stomach and a right to the jaw,
which sent the champ to one
knee. But Fields jerked up be-
fore a count could be started and
took some more punishment be-
fore the bell gave him a rest.
Fields came back like the cham
pion that he is in the fourth
round and struck out for Free
man. One of Fields blows drove
Freeman's lip against a sharp
tooth. tearing an artery. And
