Indian Bureau May
 Take Over Schools

Transfer of education of Alaska Indians and Eskimos from the Office of Education, where it has always been, to the Federal Bureau of Indian Affairs, is provided for in the regular Interior Department appropriations bill which was passed by the lower house of Congress, according to press dispatch from Washington.
 It is understood that the change was first proposed by Representative Louis c. Cram ton, and was approved by Secretary Ray Lyman Wilbur of the Interior Department.
 Alaska delegate to Congress Dan Sutherland fought vainly on the floor of the House to prevent transfer of the schools, offering an amendment to the department of the interior SUD- ply bill striking from the bill the words Bureau of Indian Affairs and substituting Office of Education. The amendment, however, was rejected by the House.

Progress in Game Stocking

The game restocking pro- gram made possible through funds provided by the Alaska Legislature and carried out under the Alaska Game Cnm- mission by direction of the Governor, is proving of con siderable value. Recent re- ports indicate that the elk brought from the Olympic Peninsula in the State of Washington and placed on Kruzof and Afognak islands. are we'll satisfied with their new homes and satisfactory increases are reported from the herds this year.
 The herd of buffalo brought from Montana and released in the Big Delta region east of Fairbanks, is ranging over a considerable area. An increase of eight animals is reported in it since it's introduction there. Reports have also been re- ceived to the effect that the beavers transplanted to Baran- of and Kodiak islands are in- creasing. The muskrats plant ed on Prince of Wales Island and the islands of the Kodiak Afognak district are, also, be- coming well established.

 A bond issue of $893, 400 was retired out of earnings before the dividend was de- clared.
 Alaska-Juneau has been op- erating at a profit since the middle of 1928. No dividends had been paid, however, since 1897.

Big Radio Now Building

Numerous local inquiries rel ative to the recent announce ment that radio broadcasting station XIX, at Hollywood, Cal, had been authorized to establish a 50,000 watt station are answered in a recent issue of the Juneau Empire, stating that several months will elapse before the new station will be in operation.
 The big station, which will no doubt overcome most of the present reception difficult ies experienced by Alaska rad 10 owners, is now under con- struction, according to a com munication received direct from XIX by Ludwig Nelson of the Juneau Radio Club in re- sponse to telegram sent by him to the station asking veri- fication of the press reports that a high power station had been authorized. The reply re- ceived by MT. Nelson was as follows:
 "New 5O,000-watt station be- ing built. Will require several months. Will let you. know in- augural date. Best regards"

NEW SEARCH ON
 FOR CAPT. RENEHAN

To search for traces of Robin Renehan, Frank Hatcher and Sam Clerf, aviators missing since October 28, the halibut schooner Dorothea, with Larry Parks, captain, and a volunteer crew of 20 experienced sea- men arrived recently at Ketchikan.
 The mission of the Dorothea will be to scan carefully the various beach lines in the hope of obtaining either from wreckage or from Indians, fishermen or ranchers some evidence of the whereabouts or the fate of the unfortunate airmen. The idea of the ex- pedition is that closer search can be made by the slow mov- ing boat than by a fast flying plane.
 The first suggestion for a boat search of the kind started by the Dorothea was made by Phil Jolie of Juneau when he was in Seattle recently. He spoke before the Rotary, Kiwanis and numerous other service cl1bs. His talks and efforts resulted in contribu- tions totaling $3,000, to be used in putting his plan into effect. The money was turn ed over to the Alaska-Wash- ington Airways, with which the missing aviators were as- sociated and with which Larry Parks is connected.

Radio Officials Heed
 Request From Alaska

Acknowledgement of re- ceipt of the indorsement given by the Alaska Territorial Chamber of Commerce to the application of broadcasting station KOMO, Seattle for a 15,O0O-watt power license, has been received from the Federal Radio Commission, says the Juneau Empire. In a letter to MT. M. s. Whittier, secretary of the Chamber, Harold L. LaFount, member of the commission, promises that the application of KOMO will receive .sserious and careful consideration"
 KOMO is operating on a 1,0OO-watt basis. If a 15,000 license is granted, the Seattle stations broadcasts will be re- ceived throughout Alaska more clearly and. with greater satisfaction than at present, it is expected.
