REINDEER DRIVE. ACROSS ALASKA IS SUCCESSFUL
First Lap of Journey for 5000 Animals AL
 ready Negotiated

WINNIPEG, Man, Oct. 15.- Can ada's herd of over 5000 reindeer which started in December, 1929, on the 1,000-mile GrIvc across Alas ka and Northwestern Canada to the selected area east of the delta of the Mackenzie River is halted in the Hunt River, having complet- ed the first lap of the journey east ward.
 Satisfactory progress has been made in the movement of the ami mals purchased by the Canadian Department of the Interior through it's Northwest territories and Yukon branch in Alaska for the establish ment of herds in Northern Canada to supplement the supplies of food and clothing of natives along the Arctic coast.
 Many Difficulties Many unforeseen difficulties. arose during the early part of the drive which greatly retarded progress, with the result that the halt for fawning had to be called consider ably short of the objective-the Col vile River Valley However, it IS expected that when the movement is resumed this month much better progress will be made and that the herd will be delivered on the east bank of the Mackenzie early in the spring of 1881.
 The herd began the long drive on December Is from the assembling point on the Napaktoolik River in Western Alaska. The chief diff culty encountered by the Lapp and Eskimo herders in charge Of the drive was the fact that the animals for the greater part were young and consequently intractable. The purpose in selecting the young ami mals was that they had only been a short time on the range and they would not be under the same urge as the older animals to return to their former feeding ground.

 So far as known there is only one other copy in existence, in the Bodleian library at Oxford.
 Hoyle, the weight of whose au- thority is indicated by the fact that the phrase according to Hoyle" is a proverb, was born in 1872.
 His early life is lost in the mists of history, and it is not until l74l that he emerges as a teacher of whist in Queen Square, London.
 He compiled handbook on whist playing which circulated among his students and which finally develop ed into his famous Short Trea- tise on the Game of Whist" pulp lished in 1742.
 Hoyle continued to be regarded as authoritative until 1864, after which his laws gradually were superseded by new rules adopted by Arlington and Portland clubs in that year.

KEEPS KEEN EYE ON
 WORLD OPIUM TRADE

GENEVA, Oct. 15.-No keener eyes watch the League of Nations efforts to control world trade in opium and other narcotics than the twinkling orbs of Alfredo E. Blanco anti-drug crusader and colorful cos mopolite.
 This handsome Spaniard has spent no more than three months of his life in Spain. He was born in England, married an Irishwoman, worked for a quarter of century in China, knows Europe intimately and looks to the United States as the hope of mankind. He says:
 Half a dozen picked, public spirited Americans, by combining their energies, could stop the illicit narcotic business of the world The Americans have tackled and solved bigger problems than this"
 Senor Blanco was formerly an expert in the leagues narcotic sec- tion, but now directs the Anti Opium Information Bureau, which he founded. He presses tirelessly for an international agreement to restrict manufacture of narcotics to the worlds medical and scientific needs.
 He says the work is handicapped because most of the leagues com mittee on the opium traffic repre- sent countries which are financially interested in the manufacture of narcotics.
