JUNEAU CARvES NAME ON TROPHY
 CUP TWO TIMES
Crimson Bears Title Vic tory Second in Twelve
 Years Competition

Award of the silver trophy cup emblematic of the Southeast Alas ka High School basketball cham pionShip and won by Juneau this year, which was planned for pre- sentation at the High School gym nasium last night, will probably take place early next week, 1t was announced today.
 Since 1922, when the cup was put up by the Alaska Electric Light & Power Company, the names of the four winners have been in- scribed thereon. Douglas was champion three years straight, in 1922, 1928 and 1924, and did not win back the title until 1882. Ketchikan was on top in 1925, 1926 and 1927, resuming the coveted position in 1930 and 1881.
 Juneau was champion in 1928 and Petersburg had the honor the following year.
 There is a possibility that the Crimson ears will make. a trip to Petersburg and Wrangell fol games with the high school teams of those towns as a reward for their winning of the championship No games have been played out of town this year except the two at Douglas.
 Crimson Bears Coed
 Close followers of the game be- lieve that this years team is capable of holding it's own against the best of the high school quint- cts in the country. Coach Elmer G. Wentland, who came to the local institution last year, has suc- ceeded in whipping together an aggregation with unusual speed combined with almost perfect team work. He uses the man-to-man defense and fast-breaking and quick-passing offense, mixing an occasional long pass with snappy, short heaves. The dribble is em- ployed conservatively, and the boys have been taught to forget about individual point records and to work for the team. The system has proved a success.
 A noteworthy feature of the Crimson Bears play this year has been their sustained driving power. In every game they have played at top speed all the way and were al- ways in there fighting for every advantage.
 To Lose Three Regulars
 Graduation takes three regulars of this years team, whose ranks Coach Wentland must fill next season-Captain George Karabel- nikoff Boyd Marshall and Bob Hen- ming. Karabelnikoff has played a bang-up game at guard for two years and he also packs a danger ous scoring threat. Marshall, a quiet young man with a marathon reach, came to the front this sea- son for his steady, dependable de- fensive work. Henning played for ward last year and in tbe first twt

A TRAGIC DEATH

The tragic death of Mrs.
James w. Wise, Dover, and
the injuring of three others,
Mrs. Frank Hall Davis, Do
yer, and Mrs. Owen Knots
and son James, of Denton,
Md, in an auto accident in
Smyrna early Monday morn
ing was a shock to their
Smyrna as well as Dover
friends. 1t is one of those
unfortunate accidents which,
happening at this Christmas
season lends more than usual
sympathy. Mrs. Wise was
one of those whole-hearted
popular women of Dover, who
won a host of friends and
that her useful life should
have been cut off in the prime
of womanhood is mou1ned in
both towns. The others in
the party, we are glad to note
are recovering from their
frightful experience. The ac-
cident goes to show the need
of utmost care in driving on
the highways covered with
ice and snow these winter
Such accidents
happen all the time but when
it touches close to home,
among people we know, it
comes with more than usual

swollen Mississippi River has flooded
territory estimated at $4,000 acres in

Mississippi.
The levees were described by engi-
neers as in splendid condition, but
Mississippi River rises are always re-
f1ected in a bottling up of sectional
streams whose normal discharge into
the big river is retarded, resulting in
backwater accumulation behind the
levees
The most serious phase of the situa-
tion is the threat that these backwaters
may remain for weeks in the delta and
nearby territory, making Spring plant
ing impossible.

WARNED
Of TYPHOID

With the report of a new case
of typhoid fever in the suburban
area of Montgomery county, DR..
v. L. Ellicott, county health Of
ficer, has issued a warning to
parents not to allow children to
drink from streams.
According to DR.. Ellicott, the
present case is the fourth within
year in which the probable
source of infection was the drink
ing of water from a stream or
unprotected spring.
DR.. Ellicott said that parents
frequently ask whether it is safe
to allow children to go swimming
in streams. The danger of swim
ming is extRmely slight even if
the water is highly polluted, but
the danger from drinking the
water Is great he said.

REPORTERS

PEIPING Q.N.S)-All foreign
newspaper correspondents in Chi
ma must obtain a certificate OF
registration from the foreign of.
flee every two years, according to
announcement Of the intelligence
department Of that ministry.
It is stated these certificates
will be refused in the first in.
stance or Cancelled at will by the
government should the CORE
spondent be judged to act con-
trary to the ''law of publication"
promulgated by the national gov

The intelligence department is
in an excellent position to enforce
this SupercensorShip, since every
cabled message sent abroad, no
matter from what city in China,
is carefully read by an active Gen.
Sor. This censorship has never
been lifted during the past few
years although it varies in per-
sonnel from civilian to military
officers.
However, no attempt has been
made to censor mail stories post
ed by foreign correspondents, al
though there are repercussions in
China when the published arti-
cles find their way back to Off

ODD SCRIP P[AN
PUT INTO USE

SALT LAKE CITY GNS0-
Six district organizations of the
Mormon Church in Salt Lake
City recently put into operation
a novel stamped scrip experiment
in an effort to stimulate business,
alleviate distress and unemploy-
ment and further church con-
struction projects.
If the plan is successful it will
be expanded State wide, Gordon
Hyde. church project manager, de-
Clared.
For 81 of legal tender paid to
the presiding bishop of the
church, who acts as trustee, a
member receives a 81 certificate.
To make a purchase and put this
certificate into circulation he
must buy a 2-cent special stamp
and attach it to the scrip. Dur
ing each transaction thereafter
o stamp must be placed on the
certificate and If held more than
one week by one holder, he must
attach two stamps. The certifi-
cate is redeemable for 81 in cash
after SO stamps are attached.
In the meantime the church
has made $1.04 in the sale Of
stamps.
