Lease Of Town Farm
 Causes Hot Dispute
Naugatuck Public Welfare Board Names Marshall
 McCann Superintendent for One-Year Period

Naugatuck, February 12 A hot dispute on whether or not the town farm should be leased this year to anybody, featured the meeting of the board of public well fare last night in the town hall. Marshall McCann Of Millville, who has had experience working there under other superintendents, was chosen superintendent of the town farm, but his duties are still to be defined.
 MT McCann's appointment is for a one-year period, this being the usual term. It was suggested that it be for two years, but Richard Durkin, board member, objected on the grounds it would be easier to remove him at the end of a one-year term If his work proved not suitable.
 Warden John J. Sheridan vigor- ously opposed leasing the farm to Mir McCann or onybody else. He pointed out that if the superin- tendent leased the farm, there would always be criticism of him when he was working for himself and not for the town. Tt is his duty to take care of the inmates of the eown farm, and this comes first. You would never know where to look for him if he leased It."
 He said he did not believe the same order of things should con- tinue. The leasing is not profitable he said. The sum of $480 was realized from the lease last year, but there was, 6 $500 materials expense. Patrick Scully pointed out the town hall is leased to make a few dollars, "why not in the town farm?" he asked. Will liam Mariana expressed himself in favor of leasing it instead of let ting 1t lay idle.
 At this point, MT Durkin crl- ticized the running of the town farm by the former superintend- ent, Elmer Anderson.

 He claimed this official was not at the farm two hours week dur

The fact there were about POI names from the third ward en- tered with the registrars lists at the session Saturday indicates a campaign is being made there to line up votese by respective can- didates.
 It has also been reported that Howard Brennan might be a can didate.
 Just what factions will line up with MT. Burkus and with the other candidate Is not known yet. MT. Burkus has been considered part of the Judge of Probate D. al disputes between Warden John J. Sheridan and he at borough board meetings have indicated there Is not the best of feeling be- tive enthe town head and the man who took his place as third ward burgess.
 There is plenty of political talk around the third ward, especially the Union City portion these days. It seems the main topic of con- versation, even the Hauptmann trial taking a back seat.

LOOKS OVER FOOTBALL
 TO CREW HOPES
Coach of Champion Bear Eight Thinks About
 Olympics, 1856

OAKLAND, Cal, Sept. 12.-Al- though most sports fans are won dering just which college football team will be named champion, there is one man here to whom the grid iron game holds little appeal. lie is Ky Ebright, California's dimin- utive and bespectacled rowing coach.
 A graduate of the University of Washington, Ebright now is known the nation over as the producer of the last two Poughkeepsie inter collegiate rowing champion crews. He also is known as the man who tutored the California crew that represented the United States in the 1892 Olympic Games.
 But today, the cocky little coach isn't worrying about football as everyone else is-his thoughts are on crew, and the 1886 Olympics to he held in Berlin. Ebright wants to have Bear crew as the 1886
The Daily Alaska empire., 1935-09-12

U. s. Standard -bearer-of course, But he also knows that several other crew coaches have their hopes pinned. on the same goal.
 Rates Huslxies
 Caught beIore he could slip away for a fall vacation trip, Ebright told reporters, The boys had a pretty good season, but what I am concerned with right now is next year. Washington should be strong CT than ever, and then there's Navy and Pennsylvania and Cor nell and Penn A. c. and all the rest of them'
 The California coach admitted that he was well fixed" for an Olympic bid next year Of the crew that drove to a Poughkeepsie win over the four mile course and then earned sprint honors as well at San Diego, Cal, later, the Bears lose only two men Ray Anderson, No. 5, and Jack Yates, No. 2, by graduation. That gives Ebright a veteran nucleus of six men, to say nothing of the capable freshmen who will come up" from last sea- son.
 But said Ky, "one years cham pions are next years also-rans more often than not. Look at our crew this year. We won at Pough- keepsie in 1894 and the same men came back this spring. It looked like a natural but those veterans let a bunch of sophomores drive them out of the varsity for the dual race with Washington.
 Staged Comeback
 We lost by but six feet, but it made the Poughkeepsie victory pos sible. The veterans of 1894 finally realized they couldn't get by on their regulations alone.
 And, although Ebright concluded by saying that he felt he'd have the same trouble next year and that he might rot pull out of it in time for the Olympic trials there is many another crew coach in the United States who'll :nurmur doubting, "Oh, yeah?"

neapolis, Minn., his home town. But, better than that, he played first string" football at the Uni- versity of Minnesota under two of the nations finest coaches, Fritz Crisler and the well-known Clar- ence (Doc) Spears, formerly of Dartmouth and Oregon. That he can get along with "the fellows" in first-rate style is evidenced by the fact that he has been with the Minnesota recreational staff for two years.
 Football, it seems, is to be just one of a series of many extra curricula athletic endeavors under taken by the boys in both the High School and Grade School under Hautala's direction. In CO., operation with A. B. Phillips, Haul tala has drawn up an ambitious intramural program which will ex- tend into next year.
 But let him tell about it in his own words:
 Tt seems to me that your inter- city High School sports competition is pretty limited because of trav- cling expenses he said. And, nat urally, your Grade School has no outside competition. So the thing to do is to organize an ample intra- mural series of contests, designed to give Juneau boys competition among themselves.
 This football league is just one idea along that line. We've got four High School teams and as many more from the Grade School. The High Schoolers will play every Monday and Wednesday afternoon in the Bowl after school, and the Grade School teams will compete on Tuesday and Thursdays. We'll play the games rain or shine. The older boys will play double round- robin, with each team meeting every other team twice. The Grade School elevens will play single round-robin schedule. We hope to arrange some kind of perpetual trophy.
 After we have had enough foot ball, we'll turn to other intra- mural activities. They will include tumbling, basketball, volleyball, in door baseball, and horseshoe pitch ing. Worked out on competitive basis, I think the program is bound to appeal to the fellows"

FOOTBALL BACK IN CITY WITH
 PREP LEAGUE
Hautala, New Athletic Coach, Organizes ln-
 tramural Program

Football, as regularly sched- uled competitive sport, came to Juneau yesterday for the first time in more than 20 years.
 Under the direction of Juneau High Schools new athletic coach, Walter Hautala, an intramural football game of the touch" var iety was played in Evergreen Bowl Ives terday afternoon, with the
 Sophomores taking the decision over the Freshmen, 6 to 0.
 Although the game itself was interesting and although the intra- mural round-robin series will prove more and more colorful as the competition becomes keener, the story behind" that football game yesterday and the part it plays in a revised boys athletic program in the city are the items to discuss today
 Remember Those Games? More than 20 years ago, while the famous Treadwell mine still was | in operation, some mighty football elevens under the tutelage of Tom
 McDonald, former University of Washington and Seattle Athletic Club grid star, were developed. The Icompetition was fierce and in the winter months, Douglas and Juneau knew little else than football ? But with the cave-in of the Tread well mine, the gridiron sport was dropped-partly because of the lack of organized backing and partly be- cause of the fact that winter con- ditions here are not conducive to good football Often the wind is too strong; and almost always the ground is frozen so that injuries are frequent among the players.
 But the kind of football that young Hautala is teaching High School and Grade School students these days is a bit different from the type played at Treadwell. In- stead of the regulation method of tackling the man with the ball, a system of touching" him is used. He is. according to the rules, re- quired to stop at the point where an opposition player touches him. No body contact is permitted, but the game is much faster and more open than the collegiate brand.
 Its advantages to Juneau, of course, are two-fold: the students, admittedly new to the finer points of football. are given an easy style to learn; and, secondly, the chance |of bumps and bruises are mini mixed.
 Some Record!
 Is this man Hautala qualified to run a football program in Ju- neau? Just look at this record. lie was football and basketball star at Washington High School in Min
