BOOST PRICE ON
 SEAL STOMACHS

Due to the price of seal skins, Indians in the Sitka area have shown no enthusiasm to take seals, according to word from Warden Donold Hanley of the Bureau of Fisheries. Haley, who went there to get a hundred seals, the stomachs or which are to be sent to the Biological Survey in Washington for study to determine whether the seals feed on salmon and halibut, was to pay dollar a piece for the stomachs but got no response. Through L. G. Wingard, Alaska Agent for the Bureau, he has been authorized to raise the price to $2.5o. Only Indians are allowed to take the seals and they get the skins.

 Featured with the unit aince its organization, Kay Weber as vo- calist is as distinctive and disting- uIshed as the rhythms and the ar- engagements of the orchestra with which she sings. Her polished lyrics match perfectly the smo0th syncopation of the orchestra whose three trombones and one trumpet make the instrumental effects both original and unique.
 Both rhythm and comedy are contributed by the Dorsew trio, Skeets Herfurt, Rock Hillman and Don Mattison, all members of the original Dorsey orchestra. Jimmy Dorsey, master of the clarinet and saxophone, has based the bands modern style on his modern phras- ings of those instruments. Under his baton, the distinction of the orchestra is unforgettable and its musicianship unbeatable.

The Dorsey Brothers orchestra, headed for Hollywood and stardom by virtue of a 30-weeks contract on the Kraft program with Bing Crosby, will stop off en route at the Spanish gardens Sunday night in what will be their only New England appearance this fall. Sel- dom, in the annals of orchestral history, does an organization ex- perience the meteoric rise to fame that the Dorsey orchestra has en- joyed since its inception 17 months ago. Within the compara- tive short period of 17 months since their origin in April 1884, they have been featured at tho Palais Royal on Broadway, on NEG and Decca records. Since then, record breaking theater and ballroom engagements, the entire summer at Glen Island casino and now the crowning achievement- the Kraft program with Bing Crosby.

 According to present plans four feet of ledge is to be removed the entire length of the ledge and 8 power compressor drill is being used. This is expected to widen the road considerably and elimin- ate large part of the danger.
 The money for the project is coming from the balance left in the state dirt road appropriation. The total of this was $17,750 and $8,000 of this sum was used for oiling and repairing roads here this summer. There still remains quite a sizeable amount.

Members of the Naugatuck Women's club will be asked to supply machines. -,xpense to the town is expected to be small. Women on the wlfare list will be the first applicants con- sidered.
 During this discussion 1t was brought out that although Miss Katherine Brennan, social service investigator, is now paid by the town and the other investigator, Miss Adkins is paid by the EZRA, 1t is expected soon the state will pay 45 per cent of each persons s salary.
