Voices Opposition to Dole in
Speech to Labor Convention
President Green Srs Annual Meeting of A. F. of L. to
Enthusiasm by Demand for Immediate 5-Hour Day

There was a goodly round of ap-
plause when the president entered
and another when he concluded. There
was nothing that could be called an
enthusiastic outbreak, perhaps be-
cause most of those in the hall did
not know what had been said.
In the morning session of the open
ing day President Green had brought
cheers declaring for the five-day week
Immediately, putting his full empha-
sis back of that demand. Speaking to
the largest convention ever held, ex-
cept the convention held in this same
city in 1908, President Green said it
was his desire "that the five-day week
should be inaugurated Immediately in
all industries outside the service in
dustries," and he said it ought to be
labor's "infiexible purpose to press
upon industry an uncompromising de-
mand for the fve-day week"
Welcomed by Officials
The convention was welcomed by
officials of the city and state labor
bodies and by Mayor Curley and Gov
ernor Allen. Outside the convention
hall the city is and has been an Amer
lean Legion town. Bedlam reigns
bands march and countermarch
Cheering, singing throngs crowd the
hotel lobbies and corridors, from
which all furniture and hangings have
been removed.

FOR WEEKEND

Fishing prospects are good for
this weekend despite lull in
this sport early in the week, ac-
cording to old sea-dogs and river
fish-pursuers.
The lower Potomac continues
to send in the most attractive re

very far behind. Catches ranging
from 10 to 25 fish per party

both sectors. Plenty of fish are
handy but the rough weather
keeps them down.

Grigsby.
L. T. Faulconer, A. C. Rychard

drifting around Patuxent Beach.
One was four-and-a-half-pound

1Oday, Duuan Is OUT Oh GIle
picture for the present because Of
his injury. which is more painful
than serious; and Coach Orrel
Mitchell is bemoaning the fact
that he is retarded one day more
in congregating eleven men to-
gether in the idea of calling them
regulars.
Dunan is Mitchell's only hold
over from last year. Also one
of the heavy men on the squad.
Coach Orrel has had him in the
backfield for the past two weeks
because that department did not
have an experienced man to lead
it.
Now, Dunan's injury, slight as
it is. There's no trouble like
real trouble, according to Mitch
ell. Du1an's forced inactivity is
real trouble in this instance.
The GOnzaga eleven is 60
ing to be light this year. In
fact, very light. And to make
matters more complicated,
the team is going to be in
experienced. Coach Mitchell
really has q job on his hands,
and it's no sob story from
him either.
Everything is a question mark
for the Eye Street Eleven. Botn
the backfield and line have to be
built, with nothing but green ma
terial to build it with. Right now
Coach Mitchell is continually
after the candidates in showing
them how to do this, how to do
that, and why. . .
At that the team probably will
come around and a commendable
showing made. The candidates
are all willing, and that's halt
of the problem, according to
Mitchell.
Although the squad as whole
does not average over 140 pounds,
Coach Orrel has two men outside
of Dunan, who weigh something.
Tommy Shipman, tackle, tips
the beams at 200, while Ernest
Viau, is a 170-pounder. The worth
of neither will be known until
after the Central game, however.
Dunan does not weigh so ter
ribly much. Yet he is a giant be-
side the many other candidates
on the field. Dan pulls the scales
at around 140 pounds.
Coach Mitchell has decided
on four men for regular posi-
tions at this time. Dunan Is
down as one Of the half
backs. Viau is expected to
play fuIlback. George Gin
gras at center and Eddie
DOnOhue, end, make up the
other Certainties.
Charlie Mills Is being groorned
for the quarterback post. He is
small, stocky lad, with promise,
Almost too small for the back
field, however. Yet he is best
of the lot.
Those who look promising for
the line include Irving Expert,
Dave James, George Lewis, Ed
Quigley, William Mills, Tommy
Shipman and Jim Donohoe.

tember 26 at the Mount Pleasant

Koenig was sent into the pox
against Boston as a relief man
Thursday. And, though wildness

Koenig will have everything he
needs when another year rolls

REDISTRICTINC OF FUR AREAS
 BEING PLANNED

Revision of Alaska fur districts is one of the most important subjects to be acted upon by the Alaska Game Commission when it holds it's annual meeting here, opening next week, in the opinion of H. w. Ter hume Executive Officer. The ses- sions are scheduled to begin on Mo- vember 19, and probably will con- tinue for week or more.
 Members of the Commission are all expected to reach here by the opening date. Dr. w. H. Chase, President, of Cordova, and Irving McK. Reed of Fairbanks, are due to arrive on the steamer Alameda on November 18, or 19. Frank P. Williams, St. Michael. and w. R.. Selfridge, Ketchikan, will arrive on the steamer Victoria, due here on November 18.
 Several Changes Likely
 A number of changes in the boundaries of existing fur districts involving an increase in the num- Der and alterations of opening and closing trapping dates, is antici- pated in the revision of fur dis tricts, MT. Terhune said.
 There are at present three fur districts The boundaries were fixed more or less arbitrarily without due regard for natural conditions which affect the fur-bearing animals. This has put some handicaps on trap pers and has not been as condu- cive to conservation of the animals as is desirable.
 Recognizing this to be true, the Commission two or three years ago began a study of the situation. fWardens have surveyed the field, trappers have been consulted, the fur take has been very carefully studied, and the Commission be- livees it now has sufficient data to make possible an efficient redistrict- ing.
 Climate Big Factor Climatic conditions, MT. Terhunc' said, will play a leading part in the revision of the districts. The boundaries will be largely fixed with view of including in each dis trict all areas in which the seasons are comparable. Climate and na- tural geographic lines of demarka-. ton will be the determining fac- tors. This, of course, will necessi- tate some changes in the open and closed season dates for trapping.
