GRATEFUL THANKS

We wish to express our sincere thanks to the firemen and kind friends who helped us during the Goldstein fire, when burning en- bers showered our home and Mis- sion, and most of all, we thank and praise God, our Heavenly Father, who tanned the Taku" and answered prayer that the fire spread no farther. We also wish to express our sympathy to those who lost their possessions in this disastrous fire, which is another warning to the people of Alaska of the awful results of drinking and smoking.

5kIERS TO HAVE TOUGH WORKOUT,
 D0WNHILL RACE
Olympic CaIibre" Course 10 Be Run for Hen-
 hing Cup Sunday

Gastineau Channel skiers will re- ceive test of downhill ski-racing "a la Olympics' Sunday when the Juneau Ski Club holds it's first competition over the new downhill course laid out above the second meadow last spring by Darroch Crookes, U. s. Olympic skier.
 The course was cleared last fall by CCC workers under direction of the Forest Service as another step ill development of the Doug las Ski Area, and now has received a sufficient fall of snow to be ready for its first test.
 The race, which is one of the events in the Henning Cup Com petition, will start sharply at noon from the crest of the ridge above the second meadow, and will be a point to point" event, finishing at the shelter cabin at the head of the first meadow, just below the Treadwell Ditch
 Starting at minute intervals, the racers will be at liberty to choose their own courses through the open reaches above timberline, ,, but 1t is very likely that all courses will converge at the head of the cut trail down the steepest part of the hill and through the woods. The trail laid out is figured to be the most feasible route over that sec. tion of the course. Skiers choosing other paths, no matter how expert, are inviting disaster; however. a few may attempt more direct routes.
 Breaking out of the woods at the head of the slalom course on the second meadow, the racers will hit express speed" straight down the open stretch, but will be brought up short by the new shelter cabin, by the necessity of navigating the sharp curve onto the new woods cutoff down to the first meadow. which is figured to be far the most popular course, because it is short- est. Ee
 It is suggested to spectators that the best spot from which to view the thrills of Sundays races will be at the shelter cabin on the sec ond meadow. There the skiers are expected to hit their greatest speeds, with consequent spills and thrills as they endeavor to nego- tiate the rough terrain and curve at the bottom of the slalom course. It is also likely that slalom event will be held on the second meadow course, following the downhill race.
 Difficulties of the new downhill course, which has been pronounced one of the toughest and truest tests of skiing ability on the entire Pa- cific Coast, are apparent when one considers that in the brief distance of the race, but little more than one mile, the course falls an esti- mated l,200 feet of elevation. Though some slopes at the upper and lower extremities of the course are rather gradual, other reaches, through the tirnbered section, are precipitous.
 Though Sundays race is for the Henning trophy, toward which only Ski Club members can score points. other skiers are well come to enter the race and try their skill against the clubs ex- perts.
 Officials for the event have been selected by the Clubs racing con- nittee, and they ask that all en- rants be registered at the head Of the course and ready to start by ll:30 o'clock in the forenoon.

 Coming into the last quarter with the count 34 to 28 against them, the sailors--with Waldron, Love, and Nagy hitting the hoop-almost got over the hump. With two minutes to go the big center dropped brace of counters bringing the count up to 37 for the Haida and Pavlat wound up the rally by dropping basket for the final score. The Haida team had tallied five baskets in row before the gun stopped them.
