with both teams about evenly
matched But in the second quar-

has been in these parts in ages.

SEAL SALE HAS
 GOOD RESPONSE:

Indications are that Alaska has gone lover the top in it's Christ mas Seal Sale, according to Secre- tary of Alaska E. w. Griffin, Chair man of the sale committee for the Alaska Tuberculosis Association.
 Although final returns from the campaign will not be in until the latter part of next month, when all the more remote communities will have been heard from, the drive is said to have elicited generous re- sponse.
 "The Tuber uolsis Association would like to thank all those who have responded to our call to help fight the white plague,' Griffin said today. Public response to this worthy cause has been most gratifying"
 The association, through funds raised by public subscription and a possible appropriation by the next Legislature, plans to make a sur vey of tuberculosis in Alaska, on the basis of which at least two sanitariums in the Territory will be sought.

CHILDREN LAUDED
 FOR FINE WAY THEY
 AIDED SANTA CLAUS

Contributions of canned goods made by the many children that filled the Capitol Theatre last Mon day afternoon as guests of the Elks for Santa Claus visit were responsible for making the Elks' annual Christmas to needy families a complete success, according to expression of Walter P. Scott, Chairman of the Elks committee, today.
 The response was most gener- ous,' MT. Scott said, "and it en- abled us to complete filling Christ mas baskets and taking a holiday greeting to those less fortunate. We went especially to thank the children and their parents for their fine cooperation.
 And, we want to compliment the youngsters on their excellent be- havior. It was the best behaved large group of children ever saw, and, truly, they have made the Elks Christmas more than happy"

REQUEST NUMBERS TRANSMITTED OVER
 AIR, STATION KINY

Many residents of Juneau un- willingly became amateur radio announcers from station KINY yes- terday afternoon during the re quest number" period, customarily from l to pm, but extended to pm. yesterday because of the unusual number of requests.
 A microphone was installed near the telephone in the studio, and for about twenty minutes both sides of all telephone conversations were on the air AS each telephone call came in the receiver was held before the microphone, broadcasting the voice of the person calling the studio, and the studio attendants replies were picked up by the mic rophone as well as the telephone transmitter.
 Within a short time so many persons called the station to report "an open microphone' or short circuit" that the practice was abandoned.

 Thumb Biting Stops Theft
 Che of the Navy backs tried to pull
 tho ball out of Meyers arms in the clash of the service elevens on Frank lin Field. The Middle managed to get his hands around the ball but just as he was about to give it tug Monk buried his teeth in his tor rsntos's thumb. There was no fum- ole.
 When the Middle complained about he thumb-biting episode Meyer
 anne right back with a threat to bite eff his whole hand if he repeated his efforts to "stealn the ball.
 Meyer owes his football success at West Point entirely to Lieut.. Gar Davidson, for the capable Army coach refused to quit on him when his friends insisted that he was just wasting his time trying to make a football player out of the Monkey, " Davidson never gave up and he was amply rewarded for the hours spent in schooling Meyer when the little fellow came through in such fine fashion this year.

HURDLES STAR NEXT PREXY OF
 BRITAIN'S AAU
Lord Burghley Scheduled to Succeed Aging
 Athletics Chief

LONDON, Dec. 26.-One of the greatest of all track murders, Lord Burghley, will shortly be holding the office of President of the Brit ish Amateur Athletic Association.
 He has not yet been elected to the post of the 80-year-old Lord Desborough, who has been unanl- mously nominated by the A. A. A. committee and is certain of being finally approved at the annual meeting of that body next March.
 Lord Burghley commanded con- siderable hero worship when he was in the game actively not only because of his talents but becaure he was also good mixer. When at his best there was none to touch him over the 440-yard low hurdles and he was an unusually good quarter r-miler.
 Champion of Britain for several years, he set the seal of his career by winning the Olympic 4o0 mete s at Amsterdam, beating the Ameri- can cracks, Cuhel and Taylor.
 He will be the fifth A, A. A. President and the youngest to ever take office. He was 30 years old last February and it is doubtful that any national sports organiza- tion has had one so young at it's head

Games would be ensured if the tour lzt traffic keeps growing proportion ately with the imminence Of the Games.
 Troubles Shadow Outlook
 Clouds on the political horizon and the mood of the weather god during the first half of August next are two vital points of consideration for all preliminary estimates of the balance sheet of the 1886 Olympics.
 Barring unforeseen incidents, the Nazi economic service" predicts a boom in tourist traffic and a record attendance and at the same time em- phasizes that the harvest of ringing cons is not as important as the char acter and spiritual value"
 German sports authorities estimate an attendance nearly twice that of the Los Angeles Olympics, namely 600,0O0 to 100000 visitors.
 Berlins location in the heart Of Europe, within easy reach of the various European capitals and with a denSely populated country sur rounding it, is considered so ideal that it will easily outdo Los Angeles sports writers say.
 Financially, however the Berlin Games will remain far behind the 1892 Olympics. While official fore casts of expenditures are lacking, it is generally estimated that the total cost of construction of the various Olympic sports grounds, the stadium and the Olympic Village will run be- yond 30 million Reichsmarks.
 Changed economic conditions es- pecially are expected greatly to react on the spending abilities of each visitor.
 Boosting is nSt the idea of Olym- pic thought hae been adopted as a new slogan, wherefore estimates generally have it that the average Olympic visitor will spend 12 ReichS- marks ($4.75)
 It's SelIOut
 Between ' and million Reiclls- marks are expected to be the actual economic yield" for Berlin while an additional five million marks should flow through the box offices at the Olympic stadium.
 Meanwhile the Olympic committee reports the season tickets for the du- ration of the games have been sold cut. The German railways admins l. trationiis already adjusting it's time tables to permit the running of hun dreds of special trains from abroad which have been announced from various European countries.

 Meyer Sheds Pounds
 You've got to take your nat of to these little fellows who match speed, brains and ruggedness against the orawn of the giant football piaysrs. Little Monk Meyers of Army be- lcngs in that class.
 The football program carrie q Meyers weight as l59 pounds all season. He di weigh that much be- fore the season got under way. But the thumpings he took gradually whittled hlm oown. Against Yale he scaled 145 pounds. When Army Tired up against Notre Dame Monk was down to Al and coupe of weeks later he took all Navy tossed his way weighing exactly l39. Twenty pounds is a lot of weight to trim off a spare figure like Meyers, but the loss did not impair his effectiveness. As matter of fact, he improved with each contest and was the spark plug of the Army eleven all season.
 Meyer emerged from the 1884 sea- son with the unenviabie reputation of being a fumbler. He had lost the ball on several occasions but he has always insisted that he did not fum- ble, that the ball was snatched from his arms by opponents. He came out

Fight against Democracy

Representative Mccormack is introducing
bills into Congress this week making it felony
to spread subversive doctrines amongst civil
employees, students, soldiers, sailors.
The first he entered Monday 1t provided
fine of 5000 and two years Imprisonment for
anyone who spreads "un-American propaganda
among enlisted men of the nations armed
forces"
These bills smash all civil rights guaranteed
by the Constitution of the United States of
America. They make of free speech and free
press a mOckery.
To Mccormack and Hearst any liberal, pro-
gressive or radical idea is "subversive." To them
the right of a man to join labor union is Sub
yersive" To them the right of man to join a
labS9Ss-union is "un-American propaganda" Wit
ness the refusal to take back Jennings, Frisco
newspaper man fired by Hearst for union act
ivity even after the NRA labor board ordered
his reinstatement; and the subsequent cam
paign by newspapers nationwide that attempts
to organize newswriters was contrary to Amer
lean principles.
Under the Mccormack legislation selling the
Voice of Action or giving copy to friend will
become a crime punishable by prison and by
heavy fine
Mccormack says in introducing his bills
This will be fight to the finish"
He knows not the truth of his words. Deluge
Congress with demands that his fascist legsla-
tion be killed.
