estimation Of DR.. Laurence Gould, as

Balchen, SlOW-Spoken, quiet Norwegian
aviator, who piloted Byrd on his flight
over the Pole.
IF I were to go on a two-man ex-
pedition into the polar regions, or any
other place, I would want Bernt Bal

than any man / know. He was with
me on one flight to the Rockefeller
Mountains when we were marooned in
q heavy wind. He was such an able
person that did not worry at ALL"
The polar winds, Prof. Gould said,
were extraordinary. At one time, when
he and Balchen were attempting to
save the marooned plane, q gust of
wind swept the two men while they
were clinging to struts of the plane.
THE gale blew me into q horizontal
position and held me there for several

budget, of 10000, 900 lire to the avia-
ton budget and of 10000 900 lire to the
black-shirt militia budget.
This makes available for the equip
ping and arming Italy's forces next year
the total of half billion lire, which is
more than $26,000,000.
To raise this great sum the Duce
chiefly recommended raising the tax on
exchange transactions. TIE council

method Of enforcing and collecting the
money from the affected firms.
The possibility of further increases in
the italian defense budget was en-
visaged in the decision to leave the in

undetermined.
Several problems inherent in the ma
tional defense" were said in an official
communtque to have been discussed by

WEAVER FIGHTS TOUCH BATTLER
 IN VET SMOKER
Filipino Lad Most Exper- . fenced Opponent Weav-
 CT Has Had Here

Slugger Weaver, claimant of the lightweight boxing title of South east Alaska, faces the stiffest op- position of his career here next Wednesday night when he meets Migreel zamorra, Filipino battler in the six-round semi-final event of the American Legion smoker.
 Zamorra is the most experienced man Weaver has taken on since he came here to fight. The former has two draws with the late Pancho Villa, onetime king of the little fellows, to his credit. One of them was in a fifteen and the other in twenty round session.
 He has battled many of the leaders in his weight and fairly earned reputation for ability and gameness. He is lighter and small CT in stature than Weaver but his packers have no fear of the out come.
 The Vet card will have only four matches, three of which will be six-round affairs. The main event in which Butler tangles with Joe Manila, will also be six rounds Butler fought Collier last week with two painfully injured ribs, sus- tained in training for the go, but will be in splendid shape for the fight next week. Manila is train ing here and is right now ready to step into the ring.
 The other six-round battle will be between two little brown broth ers-Caesar DeGracia and Louis Nabalis. They are 115-pound boys, clever and fast. This bout should be as full of action as the semi final.
 Kid Lawrence, a Los Angeles product, and Virgil Hulse open the show in a four-round engagement. They will weigh in at about 150 pounds. Hulse is a battering ram type crapper who has won warm regard from local fans in former fights. Lawrence is newcomer but is said to be hard-hitting and heady boxer.
