 ARE HOME FROM .SKACWAY JAUNT
Local High School Cagers Return from Skagway
 with Northern Title

After a Victorious invasion of Skagway where they won the northern section cage champion ship of the Southeast Alaska In- terschool Association, the Crimson Bears of Juneau High returned home yesterday on the steamer Victoria. Coach Harold Regele was gratified with the performance of the squad which still has to face the strong Wrangell five in the fi- nal series to decide the association championship.
 The Bears are title defenders by virtue of winning the 1932-33 cage crown from Ketchikan. They will go to Wrangell for the series.
 No date has been definitely an nounced for the series. Local fans, delighted with the teams showing in local games, are urging that it be sent to Petersburg and Ketchi- kan before meeting the Wrangell veterans. However, Coach Regele is not depending on that to sea son his men for the titular games. He is putting it through a stiff practice schedule and may work it against some of the stronger senior cagers in the interim to give it some needed experience. IT, Men making the Skagway trip were: Haglund and Lindstrom, for wards; Hansen and Scott, centers; Behrends, Paul and Ficken, guards. All of them came through the game without injury and in good shape.

.SLUMS GREATEST
EXPENSE OF CITY
Found to Cost Twice as
Much as Other Metro
poIitan Areas.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, April 5.-Cold. hard
figures showing that slum districts,
despite their congestion, squalor and
low standards of living, cost a city
more than twice as much as an aver
age metropolitan area Of equal pop
ulation, were presented yesterday in
one of the most complete surveys Of
its kind ever prepared.
The survey, taking a Cleveland slum
as an example, was prepared with
the counsel of Howard Whipple Green,
consultant of the P. w. AS division
of housing. at the request of Robert
D. Kohn, Federal housing director.
In typical area of Cleveland's
slums, the survey found 2.47 per cent
of the citys population. which be-
cause of problems peculiar to slum
areas. required 14.4 per cent Of the
city's fire department costs, 6.5 per
cent of the police costs and many
other expenses as high or higher.
The areas cost for all expenses was
approximately per cent of the city's
total.
Expensive Problem.
With a population of 22,236. an
appraised value of s8.153, 900 for pri-
vate land and buildings and tax rate
income of s225,000 this slum area
in 1882 cost the city, county and
Board of Education $l.357,000 and
charity organizations.
Describing the slums as perhaps
the city's most expensive luxury. !"
Green showed the District was re-
ceiving approximately s1,177,C00 per
year more than the $3.50 required
by average areas here of equal popu-
lation.
While not all of the excess cost
could be eliminated as long as part
of it represents charity, the econo-
mics which could be effected, Green
asserted, would more than justify a
rebuilding of the area as a slum-
clearance project. He particularly
pointed out that all private buildings
in the District have combined total
value of only $4,985,000.
Cut in Fire Costs.
Probably the largest single economy
which might be expected if the area
we're rebuilt would be in the cost of
fire protection. This item, now cost
ing $4O6,l59. would be only about s70,-
900 if the district was at the average
of the whole city.
The report asserted if the district
we're rebuilt police costs also should
drop considerably, and added that
"the misery of the inhabitants should
become less acute and the menace to
the community in which any section
of crime, vice, delinquency and dis
ease is bound to be. should be greatly
reduced If not entirely eliminated"
