FORMER WASHINGTON
BASKETBALL PLAYER
NOW TRAVELLING MAN

Dick Merlin, former University
of Washington basketball letterman,
spent few summers working in
the Fairbanks placer fields while
earning his way through college.
Yesterday Merlin came to Juneau
as a travelling man, representing
Stolting and Sons, wallpaper, and a
complete line of furniture. Just ar
rived from the furniture exposition
in Seattle, Merlin is enthused over
his new work.
1t is his first trip to Alaska as
travelling man, but he has been
with the firms he is representing
for nearly two years in Seattle.
II couldn't get enough of Alaska
by just coming up to work in the
summers while going to school. y
Merlin said, and yet explained that
travelling mans job is the only
way he can ''see plenty of a swell
country" and still see a certain lit
tie Irish lass in Seattle" without
too much time in between visits.
Merlin is at the Gastineau Hotel
and will be in Juneau until Sat

Elks Considering
Handling Salmon
For Use of Needy

Plans for saving extra salmon
caught by sport fishermen to be
used for distribution among the
needy next winter were considered
by the Elks Lodge last night at its
regular meeting and committee
consisting of Herb Redman, Rod
Darnell and Howard Simmons was
named to handle the matter.
Suggestion has been made that
arrangements be worked out to have
sport fishermen who catch more
fish than they know what to Go
with turn them in at the cold stor-
age plant where they can be kept
until winter and then used for re-
lief purposes. Whether the lodge
will go ahead with the plan had not
yet been determined.

Santa May Hire
His Deerf from
His Uncle Sam

NOME, Alaska, Aug. 11.-Santa
Claus may find his Yuletide jaunts
under federal regulation soon, for
the government is preparing to take
over the reindeer business.
A commission appointed by Con-
gress is in the Far North to sur
vey the vast reindeer herds of the
Arctic with a view to government
purchase of all deer not owned by
natives.
The industrys size is uncertain,
because of native unconcern over
definite figures and because of in
frequent roundups on the sparsely
settled ranges. Estimates of total
reindeer in Alaska ranged from
100000 to 100000,
Action of Congress in buying
deer cold storage and butchering
plants may depend upon the COM
missions recommendation. Eskimo
and government leaders said the
purchase would aid natives in main
tanning food and clothing supplies,
so Congress enacted the purchase
bill last year and authorized but did
not appropriate 100000 If 5he
deer were bought, private companies
would go out of business.
Reindeer actually domesticat-
ed caribou-first were brought to
Alaska from Siberia in 1891. Later
Lapps were brought here to teach
the Alaskans reindeer husbandry.
7 The industry is plagued by natu-
raj hazards and handicapped by
Discrimination of natives to accept
a pastoral life.
