FATHER FINDS ALL WELL WITH
 YOUNG DIMOND
Youngster Expected to Be Out of Hospital in
 Few Weeks
GOLD MOVES

John Dimond, 16-year-old son of Delegate Anthony J. Dimond, was reported this afternoon by his at tending physician, Dr. w. w. Coun- cil, as progressing satisfactorily in his recovery from severe burns sus- tained Thursday night from a gasoline explosion on a 35-foot gasboat which he was operating.
 Young Dimond is in St. Ann's Hospital where he was taken by Everett Kirchofer, after Dimond had walked across the shoals near the PAA Airport, near where the boat was beached.
 The youngster was attempting to start the engine in boat in which he and Ed Levin and Kenneth Chisholm had been towing logs in Lynn Canal, for use in the Shrine of St. Terese, now under construc- ton. He was severaly burned on the face and hands.
 Condition Unchanged
 pr. Councils stated this after noon that wound Dimond's condi- ton is unchanged from last night,
 Delegate Dimond arrived on the North Sea today from Ketchikan and immediately called at the hos pital. He said after the visit that the boy is doing very well, and is in good condition and unless com plications develop, should be out of the hospital in two or three weeks, though 1t will take addi- tional weeks before he will en- tirely recover
 Delegate Dimond was assured at the hospital that there will be no permanent injuries as a result of the burns, with the exception of a few scars. And I guess that won't bother him much" said the father, considerably relieved over the gen. eral condition in which he found the boy.
 Plans to Enter College l Mir Dimond said he did not have an opportunity to talk with his son about his plans for college, but does not believe that the burns will cause him more than slight delay in starting his fall semester. MT. Dimond says he has not yet learned what college the boy in ttnds to enter, the decision in which has been left entirely to the young man.
