salt; pour in the pan a cup OF

 Plans were discussed with MT. Williams concerning the extension of Cassiar street and it is believed that aid in it's building will be forth coming from the Bureau. With the extension of this street much of the heavy traffic will be diverted from the north section of Stikine avenue which is now in poor condition.
 MT Heintzleman in talking with Mayor Hanford expressed surprise that there is not a eco camp here. He stated that he had been in Wash ington attending conferences of the Northwest Planning Council for the past two months and was not fam iliar with recent details of his of Iice, but that he would investigate upon his return to Juneau He as sured Mr. Hanford of the establish ment of a CCC camp at Wrangell if enrolment can be secured.
 The Forest Service is not permit ted to put eco camps at work in incorporated towns, Mir Heintzle- man explained, with the excep- tion of Indian villages. For that reason. he is unable to grant the assistance asked by Wrangell in building an ice rink and tennis courts on the playground.
 Mr. Heintzleman said he felt the Indian cemetery project adjoining Redmen's cemetery is worthy one and he would recommend it, as 10 his knowledge it had not been rejected by his department, as has ,l-l .apOrted here.

 About siXty-five people attended ,he Elks Christmas Party last night.
 The lodge rooms were gaily decor tied, in keeping with the spirit of the season. There was even a bit of mistletoe.
 The nights fun included: the singing of Christmas Carols. under the direction of Miss Sue Harding, with Mrs. L. L.

G. anford; Musical Chairs, the prize for which went 10 Lars Eide: old faYorite songs by the Eight Singing Gypsies; and a Prize Waltz in which Miss Etolin Coulter and AIr. George Gunderson were judged to be the "smoothest' dancers.
 During the night another bit of fun was added by the delivery of an express package to "Custard Meadows and Co.," Because some of these men had intended to be away from Wrangell for Christmas. they decided to open the package from their unknown friend. The package contained a tiny Christmas tree and eight bright red bandanas for various young men of Wrangell-all of whom happened to be present. In eidentally. those bright red bandan- as seemed to be coveted by several young ladies. but it is not likely that they "got away" with any Of them

 Two versions of the same story to Valdez.
 From the Petersburg Press:
 All was not well Tuesday morn ing when the s. S. Yukon docked In Petersburg at 7:30. A COW, being shipped from Seattle to the West ward, was according to Natures iUl- mutable laws, about to become a mother, and Captain Charlie Glass; cock could summon no one on board with any experience in midwifery.
 He disclosed his problems to Earl Dinner and Elmer and Ray Swanson all of whom are familiar with cat tie and things pertaining thereto. In less time than it takes to tell 1t. Doc" Ohmer and his two assistants went to work, and with the mof Il and material support of members OL the Yukon crew, delivered the calf.
 Thanks to their efficiency, the Yukon was only a half hour late in sailing for Juneau. At that time it could not be reported that the COW and calf were doing we'll but at least Captain Glasscock was no longer confronted with a diaeoncert- ing dilemma

" RAN CELL
 TO GET NEW
 COLD STORAGE

Karl Thiele, president of the Dia- mond k Packing Company. was aboard the Princess Norah Sunday night on his way from a business trip to Juneau to join his family in Seattle.
 While his boat was in port here he conferred with F. c. Hanford and stated that he was leaving Seattle on Christmas night for New York 10 complete plans for a cold storage plant at Wrangell.
 The plant will be built on Shus- talk Point on a seyen-acre tract re- gently acquired by Mr Thiele, Mr Hanford and H. Kittilsby. The lo- cation at the tip of the peninsula of Wrangells inner harbor is ideal for the purpose. It is 200 feet across the peninsula at the site chosen for building the plant Fishing boats will unload at the inner harbor dock aboard ocean steamers on the op- posite side where the water of Zim- oyia Strait is deep.
 The plant will have a capacity of not less than two million pounds and will be one of the most modern in the Territory. Cost of construc- tion is placed at $200,000.
 Mr. Thiele will come directly to Wrangell upon his return in the first part of January from the east. He stated Sunday night that while business conditions are not so bright in the States, the cold storage plant is all financed and it only remains now to work out some of the de- tails

Wardens Finish Pre- Season
 Trapping Patrol

The Game Commission flagship Seal. Captain Ken Talmage, called in port last week with Wardens Douglas Gray and Hosea Sarber who were closing a three-weeks' pre- season trapping patrol of the Ju- neau and Petersburg districts.
 The results of this patrol have been gratifying" MT. Sarber said at Wrangell, "in that far less viola tions and lawlessness in the field have been noted On this patrol we covered the more outlying sections. Many fox farms were visited and most of the fox farmers were busily engaged in pelting their crop. There have been no complaints so far this season of fox poaching"
 The game wardens were accom- panied on the entire trip by L. Pal mer, biologist for the Biological Survey. whose headquarters are al Juneau. MT.

Thirty tons of Sitka harbor rocks that jabbed wide holes in the hull of the S. s. Dorothy Alexander last summer have gone to the place where the bad rocks go, according to Walter McCray, Seattle diver who supervised the removal of the naVi- gation menaces recently, states the Alaska Press of Juneau.
 After the Dorothy Alexander struck those rocks in Sitka harbor, the War Department decided to re- move the huge boulders," McCray explained. T found that one of the boulders weiged 20 tons and the other weighed 10 tons. At low tide they reared about eight feet above the floor of the harbor, so it's nc wonder that a large vessel struck them"
 Descending from a scow, McCray fastened steel cables around the smaller boulder and the ten tons oi solid rock rose to the surface with. out any complications. It was taken beyond the harbor and dumped in deep water.
 But te heavier boulder was a diff ferent matter Five times McCray put the cables around the boulder and the winches began to take UT the slack. And four times the cables snapped like silken threads under the tremendous weight.
 But the fifth effort was success ful-"We managed to get the boul der out into deep water, but tht strain on the cables was so great that we just had to strike the cable once with an axe to dump it into the ocean," McCray recalled.
 Besides handling the War Depart ment contracts in Alaska. McCray does the diving for the Astoria anC Puget Sound Canning Company a its various Alaskan plants, inspecti ship hulls in Seattle and does al underwater work for the Aberdeen and Hoquiam water companies.

Two versions of the same story given by the Petersburg Press and the Alaska Press of Juneau are herewith presented. Wrangell Sen tinel readers may take their choice, but it is certain all will have a chuckle at finding Earl Ohmer, the Shrimp King" given a rating as a veterinarian at Juneau. Here are the stories.
 From the Alaska Press:
 Tragedy ended the labor trouble which held the s. S. Yukon at Pe- tersburg for 5 minutes yesterday af- ternoOn, according to reports brought here by passengers from the ship.
 But it wasn't the fault of the c. I. o. or the A. F. L.
 A COW consigned to a farmer near Valdez, was the cause of it all. While the Yukon was in port, Mad anne Bovinus decided to become a mother. A local veterinarian was called and the boat remained for 45 extra minutes at Petersburg, while the veterinarian worked.
 However his effors availed naught and the calf died soon after birth. Madame Bovi~Ra. weak and weary,
