VA triumph that was as stun
- ming as 1t was decisive. Herb
Shenkin and Ray Stocklinski
- became the local public parks
doubles champions yesterday. when
they upset the No. team, Allie and
Nate Ritzenberg, on the Rock Greek
tennis courts.
Their victory, within 2 points Of
being in straight sets, came after
four rather comparatively easy sets,
with scores Of IS, 13, 81, 81.
Thus did the duo Of Shenkin and
Stocklinski, the lowest-ranked team
Of the seeded entrants, neither of
whom ever had passed the quarter
finals Of this tournament before, sue
ceed to the one-year proprietorship
Of The Evening Star Trophies, an
nually awarded to the doubles victors.
Three semi-flnal matches, running
true to form, set the stage for the
title matches in three events today
-women's and mems singles and
women's doubles.
Pat Deck and Nate Ritzenberg, the
seeded No. l and entrants, earned
the right to meet for the singles
crown, at $3.50 O'Clock, when they
routed Stocklinski and Allie Ritzen-
berg, respectively, in straight sets.
Deck put the bee on q thoroughly
stage-struck Stocklinski, 6-1, 6-3,
while Nate exercised his former jinx
over his younger brother, 60, 60.
Match Decides Two Titles.
THE latter's victory, incidentally,
gave Nate the prep school tennis
championship, as G. C. Callan, presi-
dent and founder of the Prep School
League, had asked the brothers to
consider their semi-final match of the
public parks tournament as the final
OF the prep school tournament, in
which they were the centenders. CAL
Ian presented them with cups.
While Sara Moore, the defending
champion. and Dorette Miller, her
doubles partner, already had reached
the final Of the women's singles,
which will open this afternoons
triple-header at o'clock, those two
paired late yesterday to gain the
doubles final by repulsing the threat
OF little Willie O'Steen and Joan
Bransford after three surprisingly
difficult sets.
Miss O'Steen and Mrs. Bransford
had a 4-3 lead on the favorites in the
third set, but Sara and Dorette rallied
to take the last three games and the
match, 60, 1-6, Ga.

POPULATION WILL OPEN UP ALASKA
 RESOURCES

Rex Beach Aaska's Ambassador without port folio, may be trfe optimistic in his belief that open ing of Glacier Bay National Monument to prospecting and mining will start another gold rush within 30 days but the Territorys best known booster is cer- tainly the right track and Alaskans can well be apprecative of his efforts in behalf of promoting mineral development The old time Alaskan knows that Alaskas initial progress out of the ground and if the Territory is to accomplish anything in an industrial way it will have to open up the earth again and bring forth the yellow metal
 It is a well known fact in Alaska even If it hasn't seeped through yet to the members of Congress that the Glacier Bay holds valuable deposits of gold silver, copper and other minerals. B. D. Stewart, Territorial Commissioner of Mines has ample evil dence of positive proof that high grade pay dirt has actually been tapped in various parts of the area. AS Mir Beach told the Senate committee it is almost possible to prospect with field glasses and throw hat into the highly mineraliaed belts.
 But of course, back about 10 years ago some one got the bright idea that nature such a grand and glorious thing in Glacier Bay that it should be preserved for posterity and got President Coolidge to issue a proclamation keeping it nviolate from human hands, ad minimum, step toward tying up every piece of public land in Alaska that supports as much a tree. It's nice idea but how are the people in Alaska going to make living and how are we to offer any inducement for others to come and build up population unless we can develop our mineral resources?
 Some will tell you that what need in Alaska is capital True But what need a great deal more is half million million people whose in- fluence be felt in the halls of Congress If we actually want to develop Alaska instead of talking about it, we should encourage them to come north in hordes The right sort will stick the others will go back. And the best to how they will make a living, is the simple fact that the record book fails to show yet where thousand, let alone half million, people starved to death in a land of plenty They didn't starve Plymouth Rock and they won't starve in Alaska, but they will make country out of it.
