ed their lead in the Rio Grande
Valley league Sunday by trouncing
the hapless Raymondville entry 1910
at San Benito. This victory kept the
Saints a half game ahead OF the
Harrington nine, which defeated the
Broncs at Brownsville IA in a
tightly fought contest.
Topper Rigney's boys took over
undisputed possession Of second
place as the McAllen club, which
previously tied with Harrington. had
an off day in the league schedule.
This circumstance placed the Har-
lingen nine a half game ahead OF
the Macks.
In the remaining game of the day.
Eddie hamburger and his Mission
Grapefruiters came back strong to
sink the Boosters 5-4 at La Feria.
The victory pushed the Fruits up to
a $3.50 break. tieing them with
Brownsville in fifth position.
Due TO illness Of Ward Rowland's
mother. tn eDonna-Rio Hondo con-
test was postponed.
A hot contest looms for next Sun
day when the Saints and Macks
tangle at McAllen. This will be the
most important game so far this
season and a lot will depend upon
its outcome. With the league lead
ers and McAllen cutting Threats.
Harrington gets an excellent oppor
tunity to grab off first honors'
Another scrap which will likely
furnish some interesting baseball
will be the Brownsville Booster con-
test at La Feria.

ALASKAN AIRWAYS TO MAKE USE OF PARACHUTES

The Alaskan Airways recently re- ceived a shipment of four Irving parachutes. They are the approy- ed department of commerce type used by mail carriers in the states and by the army and navy. The ehutes are 24 feet in diameter and are made of the highest quality Canton silk.
 Tt is not our intention to use the paraehutes for service on regu- lar commercial routes" said Arthur W. Johnson, Airways manager. "They will be used in test flights when a plane is put through all the maneuvers and given vigorous test after being overhauled and repair ed; ion special flights such as night flying; both passengers and pilots will be required to use them in flights to new territory which might be hazardous; and in exhibition fly ing.

LOmen's Trail Herd Meets Obstacles;
 Supplies Go By Air
REINDEER ON LONG TREK TO CANADA BALK AT CROSSING GLARE ICE ON HUNT RIVER

The reindeer herd which is being driven by the Lomen Reindeer Cor poration from the west coast of Al aska to the Mackenzie riven for de- livery to the Canadian government, is having difficulties in getting started on the winters trek. reports Pilot Robbins, Alaskan Airways fiyeyr.
 A year ago the deer started out from the Kotzebue Sound country and now they are at the Hunt Riv- CT. a tributary of the Kobuk. For three weeks efforts have been made to get the. deer across the river but the crossing cannot b accomplish ed because of glare ice.
 Under the leadership of Andy Barr, herders have tried every strat- attempts have been futile. The ice has been made rough by chopping and snow has been spread on it., but the animals are still on the wrong side of the river.
 Acting on information gleaned from Eskimo residents in the coun- try where. the herd is now located, Barr has been forced to change the route which he had planned on fol- lowing through the Brooks range. The course which had been plotted led north from the Hunt to the Aniuk river and thence through a pass about a hundred miles long to the Arctic slope.
 But the Eskimos said the pass would be a death trap for the herd. They said it was the scene of local and severe storms in which nothing could live. Every spring. they add ed, the bodies of caribou which could not weather the storms are found in the pass.
 Now Barr has charted on his map a line which will carry the herd to the east of the pass and take it to the Arctic through other water gaps.
 During the stay at Hunt river the herders have been engaged in train ing sled deer which will pull sup plies on the trek. Until they are but in use a speedier method of transportation is being employed, the Lomens having contracted with the Alaskan Airways to freight B. 900 pounds of equipment from the junction of the Ambler with the Ko- bulk to a point on the Noatak near the confluence of that stream and the Aniuk.
 Robbins made a flight over the pass which the Eskimos advised Barr against taking, and he says their judgment was sound. As he flew high in comparatively calm air Robbins could seen the storm swirl ing below him in the pass. Tossed about by what must have been a veritable gale, clouds of snow rose 5000 feet in the air.
