Taku Wind Blo,us, How and Why; Weather Man
 H.J. Thompson Explains

cold glaciers as water passes through a funnel. The small spill ways" tend to give high velocity to the wind.
 That is why smoke" on GaSti- neau Channel is noticed at the southern end of Douglas Island often when the wind is not blowing hard here. The entrance to Taku Glacier-a natural "spillway'-is found at that end of the Channel
 The term "Taku" is local ex- precision, Thompson pointed out. Residents of Wrangell experience the same kind of wind but call it "Stikine", from the river by that name near that city.
 Discussion Of local names for winds brought mention of other more or less notorious winds in other parts of the world
 of course, one of the most well-known winds in the world is the so-called Chinook" Thompson said This wind, found all over the globe, is called a Chinook on- ly in the Western states. Elsewhere it is termed a 'foehn' wind. It is warm, dry wind, and has been known to wipe out a heavy fall of snow in few minutes. Seattle, which had ten inches of snow on Sunday, felt the Chinook on Mon day, with the result that warm rain turned the snow to slush."
 Similar to Juneau's Taku is the mistral wind in the Rhone Val ley of Italy. Another wind of this type is the buran or purga, found in Russia and Central Asia. Still another of this kind-and one with a real name-is the williwaus of Terra del Fuego, found in Pata- gonia.

Just what is a Taku wind2

Just what is a T'aku wind?
 What causes those icy, gusty blasts that strike Juneau in the winter and bring discomfiture and often danger?
 Driven, perhaps, by the city's recent visitation of the Taku, an inouiring Empire reporter found solace in United States Weather Observer Howard J. Thompson's warm office in the Federal and Territorial Building and asked those questions.
 The answers, given readily and completely. were interesting.
 T liken the cause of a Taku wind to water backed up by a high dam Thompson explained. You know. of course, that when water is damned up, the pressure at the bottom of the dam, where a sman spillway is often found, is terrific. That is a rough idea of the vary Ing pressure diCdS WlllCll SduSC lllC wind we know here as Taku."
 Thompson went on to point out that the ideal condition for a Taku occurs when there is a high pressure area over the Yukon country and How pressure area south Of Southeast Alaska over the Pacific Ocean.
 Air naturally flows from a high pressure region to one Of low pres sure. The mountains along the coast of Southeast Alaska form the dam. Here, and elsewhere along the coast. there are valley openings or "spillways' which permit the air to rush through.
 So. when the varying pressure areas are established, the air-in the form of a whistiing wind pours through the valleys over ice

RESTORATION OF SIGNAL CORPS SYSTEM ASKED
Isolated Districts Hit by Discrimination of Com
 munciation Lines, Claim

Restoration of United States Sig nal Corps telegraphic service in isolated parts of Alaska where it has been discontinued, is asked in the memorial introduced in the Senate today by Senator John B. Powers of Eagle.
 The Senator points out in his memorial that the radio phone has not proven successful and that many Of the districts in the inte- rior are in need of additional serv- ice.
 Not only will it assist the min ing and fishing industry, he says, but it will increase opportunity for employment.
 In case of sickness or other emergency cases the communica- ton system would prove invalu- able, the memorial cites.

 Juneau wants a change in it's liquor dispensation system and wants closer restrictions with Ter ritorial control according to the complete returns of the City Coun- cf's liquor questionnaire made pub lie today.
 A vote of 626 to 2l5 favored a .hanee in the present system.
 That the voters indicate a Ter ritorially- operated liquor store on a profit-sharing basis with the city is wanted is shown by vote of 525 o 3oe on that question. The ball lots showed a negative trend to- ward a city controlled liquor store Closing of both liquor stores and beer parlors on Sundays and clos ing of both establishments from 1 o'clock to o'clock in the morn ing were propositions which re- ceved a majority of 'yesv votes. Three tabulstorsi worked two days compiling the SIP votes re- turned on the l2-p3int question naire. More than 1.6o0 ballots were sent oua.

 On the other hand, the Canadian fishermen were reported as favor ing the Americans demand for the minimum price scale. Fishermen expressed the opinion that unit ca front" was needed to accom- plish both demands.
 Desirability of preventing the sale of Japanese-caught halibut in the United States also was dis cussed. uat1
 Because there were no represen- tatives present from Canadian fish companies, definite action on all questions was postponed pending further negotiations.

Fishermen Pres ent Mini mum Scale Demands
 No Action Yet

 The fishermen reiterated their threat Of a strike if the minimum scale was not adopted. They pre- sented the following scale, suggest ed at an earlier meeting in Se- attle and ratified by fishermen in Alaska ports later: 10 and cents in Seattle. and 6 in Prince Ru- pert and Vancouver, B. C., and 8la and 5iz in Alaska ports.
 No Statements
 However, the fish company rep resentatives including delegates from ten of the largest organiza- tions of that kind in Sc cattle merely stated that they were pres ent at the meeting to gather in- formation and could not give out any statements as to what con- ditions the fish companies would require to consent to such mini mum prices"

CH|SOX ROCKIES
'CONERS'

White Sox seem to have come
up with couple of rockies who
smack of major league talent and
in the ordinary course of White
Sox procedure such phenomena
is tantamount striking a gusher.
There is still possibility that
the young men in question will be
back in the small time before
many days pass but Sundry of the
major league minds have decided
that John Whitehead and Daniel
Bud" Hafey are going to fill the
bill.
For example, the gracious Pie
Traynor, who could be unbiased
about the matter, announces that
he thinks Whitehead and Hafev
are certain to be major league ball
players.
Surefire Prospect
Whitehead is surefire major
league pitcher, Traynor thinks,
despite the fact that his Pirates
did everything but knock the
young mans head off during
spring exhibition games.
"He has everything, including
confidence" TraynOr said.
AS for Hafey, Traynor said:
"Hafey has the actions of a
great ball player. l hardly be-
lieve he is ready yet. But I'll tell
you one thing-I wish we had
him."
The Sox acquired Hafey in pc.
culiar manner. They bought Ohio
Nichols from Oklahoma City for
$4,000, then gave him outright to
the Missions of the Coast League
for an option on Hafey.
Until June l
They have until June / to de-
eide whether they will keep him
or send him home. If, at that
time, they decide they can make
use of him it will cost them
$4,000.
If not, they can either extend
the option or loan him out to a
class IA team.

FACE
FOOLS CASEY

Big league baseball is undoubt-
emily the major show of Abner
Doubleday's game, but people often
have a lot of fun messing with
amateur baseball.
Pop O'Brien, who recently re-
tired as superintendent of the
Prospect Park Parade Grounds, in
Brooklyn, N. =, after 80 years as
boss of the boys diamonds, tells
why he liked his little kingdom.
81 saw many fine games
played by the boys. I settled
arguments on rules and never
had q complaint.
"SOme of our best players
never went into big league
ball. We had a lot of famous
games, but the one I get my big
geSt laugh from was the time
Casey Stengel played here with
a Navy team.
'He had $50, so he picked an
honest face out of the crowd
and asked this stranger to hold
the money. After Casey hit his
daily homer he found him gone.
Remember, I Didn't say he was
one of my ball players"

COLD WEATHER
DELAYS CAME

(Continued from 1st Sport Pagc)
which sent Joe Cronin to the Hub
and delivered a cool quarter OF
a million into the vaults Of the
Washington club.
Powell In Center
In centerfield will be the cratic
and sometimes brilliant jake
Powell, who will replace Fred
Schultz. Powell may be one OF
the finds of the year. Against
certain types of pitching he will
hit a ball a long way. He can
bunt and he can run. Mechani'
cally he is a good fielder, but is
prone to make the most unusual
mistakes in throwing. Just as
soon as the infield relay make
perfects a signal system with
Powell, the latter will be just
about 20 per cent better bail
player.
On the bench for most of the
game at any rate, will be a former
member of the Senators returned
to his old hauntS, Bump Hadley,
acquired in the three-cornered
deal involving the White Sox and
Browns. There, too, will be Henry
Coppola, the young Italian lad
from Massachusetts,. You've heard
much of Coppola already, and
more will be heard. The lad has
q brilliant future.
Kuhel, whose magnanimous &C.
ton in turning his slide to pre-
vent spiking Charley Gehringer
last June resulted in him break
ing his own leg, will be on first
base. He was retired, you may
have read elsewhere. Joe is back,
and is playing fine ball. He is
hitting that ball.
The entire Washington team
Is playing heads-up baseball. You
are going to see scientific hitting,
dragging the ball along the ground
and smart bunting to cross up
efforts at making double plays.
Higgins Injured
In morning practice the Griffs
are showing the ball against top
speel pitching. 1t may be lost on
a lot of fans, but it won't be
lost in the run column.
I make this prediction, that
whether the Griffs finish in the
second division or win the pen
p nant, you will see baseball that
wins games.
With the Athletics, Connie Mack
said today that Pinkey Higgins
could not hope to play tomorrow
The big third sacker injured an
ankle against the Phillies and is
still sore and hobbling. The woe
of Mack in the loss of the hard
hitting Higgins is the gain OF
the Griffs, for Higgins was al
ways poison to the local team.
