tract.
The Play
South had the opening lead. Az
his longest and strongest suit was
headed by three honors, the prop
err opening was the king of hearts.
South's shift to the six of dia-
monds made II difficult for Mrs
Fuller, who played the jack from
dummy. North won the trick
with the ace and returned the five
Of diamonds. which was won In
dummy with the king.
Mrs Fuller next played the ace
Of clubs from dummy and fol-
lowed with the queen Of clubs,
which North won with the king.
North now played the ten OF
diamonds. which Mrs Fuller won
with the queen. discarding q
spade from dummy. She returned
the queen OF hearts. South wisely
refused TO win. playing small
heart, trying TO block Mrs Fuller
from dummy. A small heart was
next played and South won with
the ace.
South was now helpless. Any
card that he might lead would put

The Diamond K Packing Com pany will operate its Wrangell salmon canning plant this season as usual, it was announced today by Karl T'heile, owner, and Secre- tary of Alaska, who returned here yesterday after four-weeks' busi- ness and vacation trip to Seat tie.
 A few men will be put to work this month getting the plant in readiness and about May l, addi- tions will be made to the force to get equipment and gear in shape for this fishing season.
 The salmon canners, while still handicapped by worldwide stagna- tion of all business are slowly working out some of their more serious problems, MT. Theile said. Pink salmon packs will be mater ially reduced below normal this year in an effort to stabilize that product.
 Many of the canneries in Sutf- east Alaska will remain closed down this year. Included in the list not to operate are; North western Fisheries and the New England Fisheries. both old com- panies with several plants.
 The Alaska Pacific Salmon Cor poration, one of the biggest op- eTieI.ors in Southeast Alaska, will operate only one plant, that at Port Althorp.

CORE DRILLING PROGRAM TO BE
 EXTENDED HERE
Moose Greek Section of Matanuska to Be Pros
 pected This Year

Extension of coal exploration of the Interior Department in the Matanuska Valley field was re- vealed today by Gov. George A. Parks. Bids, he said, are now being sought for core drilling on Moose Creek, considered by geologistS to be one of the best locations in the Matanuska field.
 A contract was let several months ago to Lynch Bros, wellknowr. diamond drillers, to core drill on Anthracite Ridge. The area in which the additional drilling will be done is about 25 miles from there, in an eaSterly direction.
 Coal of a good quality has been uncovered in the Moose Creek district where some prospecting was done by the United States Navy about 15 years ago. Former Senator Bartley Howard is now mining on the west side of the creek, pro- ducing excellent coal. The drilling to be done is intended to deter mine the probable extent of the deposit.
 The Matanlska field is badly broken up in many places, result ing in folded and faulted coal veins that mitigate against econo-. mis operations and lower the quail ity of the product for general uses. The fauIting on Moose Creek is said by geologists to be less than found to date in other sections of the field.
