Gillette and after the primary in- vited him to the White House. But Gillette was on the list and that fact, the informant said, is con- tributing real advantage to Dick inson, the Republican candidate, who is an energetic campaigner.
 That same condition, it was argued, may weigh against Sena- tor Tydings of Maryland, actively opposed by the President and against Senator McCarran of Ne vada, a purge candidate who es- capped active presidential opposi- tion. McCarran is opposed in the general election by former Senator Cddie, who fell before McCarran by a narrow 1,700-vote margin in the Democratic landslide of 1892.
 All in all, as the purge manage ment seems to see it, those inde- pendent Democratic Senators who outride the purge may survive the general elections by narrow mar gins, so that their independence may be decidedly tempered. And if they lose, it will be much easier for Roosevelt forces to control se- lection of delegates to the national convention in 1940.

Q909-1D study of glaciers by Dr. Ralph s. Tarr and Dr, Lawrence Martin The study involved per sonal interviews with 250 named glaciers throughout the coastal cres- cent, and others unnamed. The information gathered by Dr. Tarr and Dr. Martin was published by the society as Alaskan Glacier Studies" a comprehensive survey which has not since been equaled.
 The most sustained inland in- vestigation was the work of the U. S.-Canada Boundary Commis- sion, which marked the interna- tional frontier from summit to summit along the mountains of the Alaskan panhandle. pushed through the ascending attitudes of the St. Elias range, and finally turned the boundary to follow the 141st merid- ian to the Arctic Ocean.
 In recent years aviation has lift ed Alaskan exploration straight out of the pedestrian stage, and know ledge has progressed by wings and camera. The flights this summer of the Harvard University National Geographic Society Alaska Expedi- ton, under Bradford WaShburn, climax MT. Washburn's eight years of mountain climbing and aerial mapping in or near Alaska. By 1884 he had climbed or photographed the main coastal peaks and glaciers between Cape Spencer and Icy Bay on the Malaspina, with special at tention to the difficult ascent of Mount Crillon (12,725 feet high.)
 Since then, with the exception of year devoted to study of Mount Mckinley, North Americas highest peak, MT. Washburn's explorations for the society have been progress ing gradually northward along the entire St. Elias Range, with dis coveries of lofty peaks. such as those named for the late King George and the Dowager Queen Mary of England, until today no large area remains unknown.

MT. Washburn reports that this is Ieasily the largest mass of glacial ice outside the polar regions.
 Hitherto the largest known ice field outside the Arctic and An tarctic Circles was patch of glaciers 75 miles across on Alaska's Kenai Peninsula, about 300 miles to the west. The Kenai icecap, with 36 glaciers radiating from it, was added to the map in 1911 by R. H. Sargent of the U. s. Geo. logical Survey.
 Until now, however, no one has known what burden of ice high in the Chugach and St. Elias Noun tains has given impetus to glacial fringes that crushed mans attempt led conquest Would-be gold miners, lured to Alaska's interior by the Klondike gold strike in 1898, tried short cuts inland over the glaciers paths through the mountains, and vanished. Veins of gold have been opened along it's edges and ad- ,vances of ice have wiped mines off the map. A railroad built too boldly near a sleeping glaciers bed was wrecked. In places forests have been reported flourishing around a glaciers foot. When lumbermen arrived, they found. instead, a lake with entire trees floating uprooted on its melted surface.
 Three Nations Seek Fur Trade
 Two centuries ago, maps of North America showed California as an island, and the continents west coast sloping northeastward from California to Hudson Bay.
 England, France, and Russia were equally in terest d in exploring northern hunting grounds for their fur traders. The first two pushed across Canada westward, and bat tered for a century at the barrier of mountains. But Peter the Great, of Russia, ordered an expedition from the Pacific Coast of Asia into an uncharted sea. The Russian expedition set sail from Siberia in two small ships built with materials transportd acorss a continent. The St. Peter was commanded by Dane in the Czar's service, Ivan Ivanovich Boring; the St. Paul, by Chirikov.
 In July, 1741, the long arm of Russian dominion touched a new coast in two places at practically the same time, for the ships had been separated The lookout on Bering's ship sighted a mountain looming faintly above the horizon, and Russian America was discov- cred. The peak they called Mount St. Elias. The Commanders name marks one of the most spectacular features of the coastline he dis covered-gigantic Boring Glacier.
 Survivors of Berings last voyage eventually made their way back to Siberia with a small fortune in furs. Promptly fur traders, in small ships crudely built with rawhide thongs joining the blanks instead of iron, swarmed along the island chains between the two continents.

What IS the " Statue of Liberty" play!
 Answer: A man fakes as though throwing a pass and while he has the ball cooked in a position to throw, another ball carrier takes it off his hand and runs. It IS sometimes executed from fake kicking position, the ball being taken by another ball carrier when the posed punter swings it behind him in the bunting mo- tions. The Statue of Liberty IS one of the oldest pieces of foot ball legerdemain.
