Wiseman Merchant Finally Cuts Red Tape to Bring
 Wife from Jugoslavia

A happy ending to complicated story has made life liveable again for Martin Slisco, sourdough mer- chant from Wiseman, who despite the tangles of immigration red tape has at last been allowed to bring his wife to the United States from Jugoslavia.
 Slisco this week greeted his bride dark-eyed Para Krka, whom he married last winter. Mrs. Slisco arriving in New York on the Aqui- tania, had been forbidden entrance into the United States for several months because of technicalities only recently waved.
 Slisco plans to leave soon for AL aska to take bis bride to the Roy ukuk center where he is owner of the main store and roadhouse. 53 years old, he has lived in Wiseman since 1910, and took out U. s. Citi- zenship papers in 1929 His visit to his home town in Jugoslavia last Christmas was his first trip outside in 29 years, and immediately upon his arrival at home he went bride hunting. After looking over 30 girls he was about to give up and return to Alaska, but then found Para Krka, g. daughter of pensioned gendafme. ''f

Mer oh ants Even Minor League Series With Win
 Over Cards Last Night

Tn another attempt to break the Douglas jinx, the Moose ball club will this evening endeavor to re- verse the verdict of its Tuesday evenings battle with the Douglas Islanders. Claude Erskine set the Paps back 12 to Tuesday, but they figure that Bob Kimball can turn the tables on the Island squad to- night. Manager Andrews choice of a Douglas hurler appears to lie be- tween Jimmy Manning and Mark Jensen.
 The game is slated to get under way at 6:30 o'clock this evening al Firemen's Park, and is another o1 the mixes that had to be postponed earlier in the season. Douglas now leads the Gastineau Channel League by a margin so narrow that a win for the Moose tonight will put them right back on top of the heap. M
 Tn the Minor League tussle here last evening, Ed Atkinson started on the hin for the Cardinals, but was pounded for seven Merchant tallies in the first two innings be- fore he was relieved and the Mer- chant scoring stopped for the night.
 The Cardinals tried to come back but could touch the Merchant man. ager-hurler, Elmer Lindstrom. and his mound successor, Ralph Bardi, for only two markers The Cards were somewhat handicapped by the absence of their manager, Fry flag erup, who was on the sidelines with a leg injury. The count in the bush league series now stands at two wins for each team.
