Salmon Packers Have Smallest
 Stock in Years
Unsold Cases Number Only 199,355 Cases and Sales
 Total Hits Record

SEATTLE, July 8.-The canned salmon industry closed the year ending July l with the lowest carry over of unsold stocks in packers hands in more than decade.
 Figures of the Association of Pa cific Fisheries show unsold stocks still owned by packers is only 199,- 355 cases as compared with 868, Al cases the year before, and 1,478,4 ,482 cases two years ago.
 The total of unsold and unshipped stocks amounts to 344,935 cases.
 Total sales for the year reached a new record of 9,652,935 cases, ap- proximately 3,000000 cases more than the preceding year. Sales in Alaska reds amounted to 2541,412 cases which cut the available sup ply to 1,441 cases. Sales of pink salmon set a new record of 5,023, 1888 cases.
 Bookings of new business during June, however did not contribute much to the years total. Sales in June amounted to only l01, ,579 cases, attributed to the uncertainty of the size of this years pack, the price situation, increased labor and ma- terial costs, which boosted produc- tion costs about 25 percent.

It's an effort to maintain that fresh -as-a lettuce leaf look when the thermometer is racing up re- lentlesSly
 Most of us just sit back and re- sign ourselves to staying wilted.
 But even on the hottest days one can be immaculate.
 Here's the first step: Shake off inertia and resolve to do differently this summer
 Second, trot out all the bath preparations you own and prepare to bathe frequently. Baths usually should be taken in water of body temperature, since cold water in- creases circulation.
 If you haven't time for a tub bath or shower, take quick sponge bath. It's very refreshing.
 Bath salts are appreciated partic- ularly in summer. So is toilet wa ter, which should be patted all over the skin immediately after drying. Bath powder helps keep you cool for hours because it helps absorb per- spiration.
 Deodorants are also a summer necessity. There are any number of good, harmless ones, cream or lotion, on the market. Deodorant powders now are odorless or slightly perfumed Avoid heavy perfumes.
 Try not to get that carroty look that comes from an overdose of sun. Sacrifice a few hours outdoors, if necessary, to avoid the skin-peel- ing stage.
 Take better care of your feet Wear comfortable shoes, use foot powder now and then. An alcohol foot rub does wonders. Feet, you know, have a lot to do with un- happy expressions.
 With makeup, the rule is-keep away from daytime cosmetics with too much of a cream base Other wise you'll find your makeup streaming down your face.

 B. F. Shearer, motion picture mag nate and guest of the Chamber, pointed out the progress being made in Seattle through recreation fa- cilities for boys and girls. In the districts where play fields, for ex- ample, have been established, he lsaid, crime and trouble with young sters has practically disappeared. In districts where such facilities were not available, the reports were just the opposite.
 Certainly" he said, "a city the |size of Juneau should have a swim ming pool and recreation facilities for it's children. As a visitor to your city, I can but suggest that it cer- tainly would be worthwhile un- dertaking for this Chamber"
 John w. Jones said that it was his understanding that plans had been drawn by some of the city of- ficials for such project and he sug- gested contact be made with the Council and other officials to see what steps, if any, had been ta- ken
 In appointing his committee, President Folta instructed it's mem bers that they had broad authority to contact all sources and groups from which they could receive in- formation and help.

C Communication System History

First Tn ere Were Land Wires, then Gable and

The history of communication in Alaska between Alaska and the United States begins with the Act of Congress approved May 26, 1900, which authorized the War Depart ment to establish an electrical com- munication system, primarily for military use, in affording commun- ication between the various Army garrisons stationed in Alaska, for the purpose of maintaining law and order and, secondarily, for the pur- pose of handling commercial traf- fic.
 The communications system first established consisted of land tele- graph lines between important points. During the period 1900 to 1904 these land telegraph lines were

augmented with short lengths of submarine cable and in 1904 a sub marine cable was laid between Se- attle, Valdez and Seward, when the first direct communication between Alaska and the United States was inaugurated.
 This means of communication between the continental United States and Alaska was continued until 1881 when the submarine ca ble was supplanted by network of radio stations for communication within, and to and from Alaska. This network of radio stations, known as the Alaska Communica- tion System, represents the prime cipal means of communication for the Territory of Alaska and has been no small factor in the con- mercial development of the Terri tory.
 The new Seattle-Juneau radio telephone channel constitutes an added means of communication be- tween the Territory of Alaska and the continental United States.

Cowboys Rope
Tricks Lure to
Shorehom
BY FRANCOIS

There's a tall, angular drug
store cowboy doing rope tricks and
other entertainment chores on the
Shoreham Terrace program this
week. Breezy as a Texas bronco
buster fresh from the plains, the
lad has a nice personality in front
of the tables, but to tell the truth
he admits having never been west
Of Washington. His great-great-
grandpop, as warden of the Old
North Church in Boston, hung out
lantern for Paul Revere. Yes, sir,
he's Don, the last Of the Hootens.
Much Of the credit for the
charming atmosphere and hoSpi-
tally at the Cafe Mayfair belongs
rightly to Miss Dell Reilly, whose
experience in the hostessing game
has netted her more than 100000
handclasps.

tackle on the grid team: alternated
at first base and the outfield on the
baseball team; and performed in
brilliant fashion on the basketball
team. After year at Vermont,
Schmarr enrolled at Catholic uni
versity, where his prowess on the
various freshman teams soon stamp
ed him as an exceptionally brilliant
athlete.
Playing tackle on the freshman
grid eleven, Schmarr was moved
over to an end post midway his
first season on the varsity and per-
formed so we'll that before the
schedule was concluded, he had TAX
ell over the spot held down by a
veteran performer. His sterling play
during his junior year at Catholic
university aided considerably in the
Cardinals receiving the bid. to
play against Mississippi university
in the Orange Bowl game at Miami
New Years day, 1896. At the con-
clusion of the season, which Is the
greatest in the history Of the grid
sport at the Cardinal institution
Schmarr was unanimously elected
captain of the 1887 football team.
Equal to his fine performances on
the gridiron, Schmarr's feats on the
basketball floor has been outstand-
ing throughout his three years at
Catholic U. Since his sophomore
year, he has led the scorers Of the
college court teams of the District
of Columbia and surrounding terri
tory each season and has averaged
close to II points per game each
campaign. Recently che set high
game score of 81 points, which is
believed to be record for basket

Schmarr will graduate in June
with an A. B. degree. Already he

can professional football leagues,
but he has turned these aside with
the hope of landing high school
coaching position. incidentally he
is on the preferred" draft list OF
the National pro grid loop.
Although 1t has not yet been an
nounced, 1t is a foregone conclusion
that Hermie Schmarr will be award

honor that can be bestowed on a
