GOVERNOR TROY PAYS TRIBUTE
 TO AIR PHASES
New Service Means Great CT Things for Terri
 tory of Northland

,'The advent of the Pacific AL aska Airways is probably the most important Alaska commercial avia- ton development. and this, marks the real beginning of that com pany's operations" said Gov. John w, Troy at the airline inauguration this afternoon at the PAA Airport. tThis is no spastnodic or emo- tional gathering MT. Peck and his associates have been working dili- gently and intelligently for the last three years toward this day.
 The Pacific Alaska Airways is subsidiary of the Pan American Airways, which may properly be termed the major United States commercial aviation company say major, because its operations are extending beyond the boundaries of the United States.
 Expansion Service
 Tt is not only developing new areas wherever 1t has projected it's trade and commerce, but it is ex- banding American industry and commerce. It is knitting together the United States and the outposts long established by establishing new outposts. It has pushed Am Ferican trade into Central and South America and the West h. dies and 1t is now preparing for Gts invasion of Alaska. It is for .unate for Alaska that we are in he pathway of it's far eastern James. igf
 Tt has been my fortune to fol- CIV closely Pacific Alaska Airways activities in Alaska and see them fitted in like jig-saw puzzle into the general plans of this great company.
 Premises Great Things
 This airport and this transpor- sation line that is being started oday has been carefully planned md it is a part of a picture which when completed will mean great hings for this Territory It means lot more than the average person san realize nov. there is nosdoubt. We are to be congratulated upon 1. sContinaed, op Page EghD

 During this two and one-half years of operation, total of two thousand four hundred and fifty passengers have been flown in the planes of the company to various points from Juneau to Point Bar row and official trips have also been made into Siberia from North western Alaska.

 The company is now operating eight planes in the Territory and beginning the first of this month is maintaining schedules in many parts of Alaska.

The gigantic Jack Torrance was tossing the 16-pound shot around the Madison Square Garden floor when I spotted Gunooat Smith the oldtime heavyweight fighter, eyeing every move the 270-pounder made.
 How would he do in the ring, Gunner?'
 With his size and strength, he would do all right inside the ropes if you're talking aaous wrest- ling" Gunboat allowed. With those huge legs he could break their backs"
 But I was referring to his chances of making the grade as a fighter, not as wrestler" l ex- plained.
 Gosh, I don't see how he could tote all that weight around the ring for more than couple of rounds" he ventured, Hes fast on his feet out there putting a shot but there's a whale of differ ence between seven foot circle and 20-foot ring. His legs are much too heavy for a fighter
 Points for Olympics
 As a matter of fact, Torrance is not giving the question of ca reer in the ring any serious con- sideration at present. His thoughts are focused on the 1886 Olympic games in Berlin. Jack wants to win the Olympic championship before re thinks of turning professional in any sport.
 Marty Burke, the former New Orleans heavy, does not share Gunboat Smiths views on Tor rance's ring potentialities. On the contrary, Burke feels that in two years the young giant could be developed into fine fighting man.
 He has the idea that Torrance might develop into quite punch CT, too The wrist flip employed in putting the shot should give him the snap necessary to real punch ing.
 Thecdoratcs Ambitious
 Burke's opinion is that Torrence's athletic background-the big fellow has been playing basketball and football as well as tossing weights since his high school days-would make the task of changing him into a fighter simple one.
 Being a record-breaking shot butter is grand thing" says Burke, but Jack hasn't been do- ing anything in particular since leaving college and the prospect of making big money might lure him into the ring"
 Another giant shot-putter, George Theodoratos, Washington State col lege football tackle and weight tosser, has trained his sights on the national A.AU. heavyweight title.
 The 240-pounder won the region al finals by knocking out Jim Miller, Oregon State heavyweight.
 Theodoratos won the national junior A. A. U. shot-put title last summer with a heave of more than 53 feet. xu
