COUNCIL ACTS
 TO HAVE PORT
 ERECTED HERE
Allots $4,000 Last Night for Construction of
 Airplane Port

Appropriating $4,o00 from the municipal general fund, the City Council last night initiated steps assuring the construction of an air. plane landing port here in cooper ation with the Territory. It is estimated that the total cost will be approximately $8,000, of which the Territory will furnish 50 per cent.
 The City's appropriation was made by the unanimous vote of all members of the Council. Action was taken following some discussion of the project in which R. E. Rob- ertson and J. E. Connors, repre- senting the Chamber of Commerce, and Highway Engineer R. J. Som mers, representing the Territory, participated.
 The site, heretofore approved, is on Glacier Highway, just south of the approach to the Salmon Creek power site. A port similar to the one recently completed at Ketchi- kan, consisting of a landing flat form connected by a ramp with deep water. and equipped with holsting apparatus, will be con- structed.
 Plans for the port were com pleted sometime ago by Engineer Sommers. The work will be done by contract. It is expected calls for bids will be issued within a short time.
 Elimination of a dangerous curve on Calhoun Avenue near the Gov ernor's Mansion is proposed in an agreement between the City and R. R. Hermann, who owns the property abutting the curve, which was approved by the Council last night. MT. Hermann offered tc dedicate to the City a 10-foot strip of land at the dangerous point making it possible to widen the street to that extent, conditioned on the construction of concrete bulkhead comparatively betwe e r himself and municipality.

 In it's consideration of the water situation, the Council was asked to take into consideration that the Alaska Juneau's steam plant must be kept in readiness for operation at all times during cold snaps on account of the necessity of it's fur nishing salt water to the town for fire protection purposes. This makes it imperative that fresh water be available for use by the steam plant.
 Council Wants Information
 The Council has invited MT. Beck to appear tonight and discuss the entire situation with it. It seeks information regarding what action the water company proposes to take to meet the requirements and conditions imposed by the Alaska Juneau and the power company before additional Gold Creek water will be forthcoming to prevent fu- ture water shortages.

TITLE ISN'T ENOUGH
FOR CENTENNIALS
150-Pound Champs Bemoan First
Grid Loss in Two Years, Hawks
Winning Final League Game.

Centennials today boast the Capital
City League 150-pound loop title, but,
despite this, they are not very happy
bunch of youngsters.
For yesterday they suffered their first
defeat in two years of league play
when they bowed to Brentwood Hawks
in a TO battle. In another 150-pound
match Northern Preps vanquished VOL
verines, to 0. The games ended Capt.
tai City League play. Mercurys won the
unlimited crown some time ago.
Hawks and Northerns, as the result
of their wins, finished in tie for sec
ond place, close on the heels of the
victorious Centennials.
w. Fellner scored the Hawks touch
down in the second quarter, when he
snagged an 8-yard pass from Williams
and ran about half the length of the
field. He also drop-kicked the extra
point. Aside from this one foray by
the Hawks, play was nip and tuck, with
each team making several scoring
threats. Cents were particularly dam
gerouS in the final minutes, when they
slashed to the Hawks 8-yard line. The
Marylanders, however, held for downs.
A 42-yard dash by Houston, Northern
quarterback, put the ball on the VOL
ver1nes' 16-yard line at the start of the
fourth quarter. Then Marshall, KesS-
Ter and Reed collaborated to crash to
the score, Reed taking the ball over.
Marshall drop-kicked the point. Each

1t will be played at the Yankee sta

Navys triumph over PENNSYLVANIA
Saturday has doomed interest in the
game. The midshipmen showed nm
suspected strength as they gave the
Quakers 26-to-O beating
Army Ranks High.
A victory over Penn still Is not
enough to place Navy on a par with its
rival In the pre-game calculations. AL
though the middies showed plenty of
power and new reserve force, they
have had only a mediocre season and
beat team which had had little more
success, while Army still can boast of
having been beaten only by Notre Dame
and tied by Yale.
The cadets hold place near the top
Of the Eastern ranking list, rivaling
colgate and Fordham for the highest
honorS.
Terror Alone Unbeaten.
Colgate still holds the topmost posi-
ton among the big colleges through
Saturdays 7-6 victory over New York
University. But it was only Len Mac
aluso's successful try for a point and
Johnny Orsi's dash that blocked Jim
Tanguay'S placement in the closing
minutes of the game that gave victory.
Western Maryland alone holds the
lead in the Eastern standing as the only
undefeated team. 1t defeated Maryland,

at Brookland.
Though Maryland will not, as usual.
