definitely scheduled each year. Trips to the Westward and to oth- CT points were made as often as weather a d travelling conditions permitted. In addition she was sub ject to call at any time.
 Travel Modes
 She covered her territory by means of dog team, boat and occasionally by plane.
 Miss Keaton found the last two winters fairly mild although the ice, this year did not leave Wainwright until July Is. Besides the Radio Signal Corps, she had little contact with the Outside with the eXcep- ton of the four scheduled mails a year and an occasional surprise bit of mail brought in by chartered plane.
 Miss Keaton refuses to admit that there is anything spectacular about her work and says that the pub licity attached to her activities is misinterpretation by well meaning friends.
 Flies To Fairbanks
 She left Barrow the first part of September on the Redwood to Nome. From Nome she flew to Fairbanks. She was a passenger on train to Seward where she took passage on the Denali to Juneau.
 After leaving Juneau, Miss Kea- ton will visit for a time with her father who lives in Everett Her plans for the remainder of her years leave are indefinite but Alaskan friends expect to see her back in the Territory at the end of that time.

OUTDOOR ALASKA
by I'M ONEIL

This has been very unusual year for fish and fishing; the salmon runs have not been exactly normal and as a rule several weeks late. There have been many exotic and unusual fish taken in Alaskan waters during the season. Shad have been report ed at Petersburg and as far west as Prince William Sound These are Atlantic shad which were trans planted several years ago in San Francisco Bay and have, from all evidence multiplied and spread over the Pacific Coast. Several California barracuda have been caught at Sitka.
 A very unusual occurrence of pink salmon (humpback) was re- ported in July off the west coast of Admiralty Island. Schools of thou sands were seen in coastal waters These were spawned in 1888, matched this year and will return in 1940, as the humpback is invariably two- year fish.
 The first reports from the Prib- ilofs show that the seal herd has again increased its usual eight per cent, now being numbered over D. 100000. Sixty thousand skins were taken this year. Japan, Russia, Eng land and the United States all share1 in the annual pelting.
 The seal herd in 1910 numbered only 125,0O0 but through wise hus- bandry and the treaty of 1911, which eliminated the illegal killing, the herd has reached it's present count.
 A certain doctor and sportsman of Juneau has the boys guessing. Twice in the last week he has gone ifs h ing and returned with large catches of cut-throat trout and the last time nine-pound steelhead for good measure.
 He claims all fish were caught in the outlet of Aux Lake-the other fishermen can't seem to catch any no matter where they fish or what bait they use. Come on "doc"-give us hint.

Accounts of HeIgoIdnd Baf. file Differ, Buf Many
 Graft Are Lost
lnv Associated Pressl


 A Russian air raid on Helsinki, German aerial attacks on British fishing vessels and accounts or the Helgoland air battle, today stressed the importance of air- craft in Europe's two wars.
 At least two Soviet bombers and possibly two others were downed by aircraft fire during the Helsinki raid in which eleven bombs dropped harmlessly near suburb of the Finnish Capital City. ne British trawler was sunk and four others attacked by German air raiders and four lives are re- ported lost.
 That HeIog0land Fight
 The extent of the air battle off Helgoland, German naval base yes- terday afternoon, is disputed as to extent in the British and German accounts.
 Germany has increased from A to 52 the number of British planes that were in the attack and the British report that only 34 or 36 planes were engaged
 The British trawler was sunk and British planes are unaccounted for and assert that 12 of the A de- lending German bombers were doWned.
 The German news agency, DNB, asserts that 34 British planes were shot down but only three German planes were lost while the British claim 12 German Messerschmidt planes fell under the fire of the English airmen.
 The DNB calls the encounter the greatest aerial battle in history.
 In Paris, the Allied Supreme War Council is reported to have agreed upon both moral and material aid to Finland.
 Raid Sudden
 Regarding the raid on Helsinki, late reports state that the attack was sudden one, the first raid since the second day of the pres- ent undeclared war by Russia
 Sirens sounded the warning and almost instantly the bombers swept low but at Helsinki anti-aircraft guns did effective work and few bombs were dropped.
 The raiders, however, made on attack on Viborg and Apo, but slight damage was done. During the raid two planes were shot down and possibly two others.
