Lindbergh in Paris
(New York Times)

The vast American public which has long admired the courage and modesty of Charles A. Lindbergh must be glad to know that it is Paris, not Berlin that the Lindbergh family have selected for their headquarters this winter. Colonel Lindbergh has suffered tragically from the public interest in his goings and comings. One would wish him at all times the peace and seclu- sion" he has sought since leaving the United States, together with the opportunity to live a normal life and do his work in his own way without interruption.
 But Colonel Lindbergh, thru no will of his own has been made a symbol His words and actions carry weight that he may not always wish them to have. If he had gone to Berlin the Nazi propagandists would not have conceded what is doubtless the simple fact, that he is not much interested in public affairs and is a good deal interested in tech nological progress in aviation. They would have made him a figurehead, seemingly condoning their own inhuman policies. One hopes that he will be happier in Paris, the scene of his first amaz ing triumph. His American

Wednesday night developed first class headaches for fans trying to pick the eventual lea que champions. Hammons easily won from a weakened Alaskan team 13 to 4 while Nome in a complete reversal of champion ship form lost a disasterous game to the Commercial 8 to IS. The Commercials, Hammons, and Nome teams are now tied for top honors, the Alaskans being alone in the cellar.
 What started as free hitting Nome-Commercial slugfest sud- denly ended when Miller reliev- ed Jones for the Commercials in the third inning. Ost was far from effective for Nome and re- ceived poor support hence the one-sided score.
 Slack of the Commercials play ed an outstanding all-round game and O'Leary of Hammons earned a thousand per cent bat ting average for the evening.
 Next week the Hammon-Com- mercial game high lights the ev- ening. The winner will have a material advantage for the three games remaining to be played Nome, meeting the Alaskans, has a good chance to maintain its tie in the standings.

Norlitement Hear About
 Life In Second Division

"If any of you boys want to give speech afterward, you're perfectly welcome to do it--but not here"
 The admonition was from Gro yer Vim, master of ceremonies at the recent legislative banquet given by the Norlitemen for the Territorial senators and repre- sentatives in the Northern Light church parlors in Juneau; and it set the tone for the entire gath ering.
 About 125 Norlitemen were present with their guests, and heard Senator Leroy M. Sullivan of Nome describe life maong the residents of the Second Division on the western and northern coast of Alaska. Sullivan has tra- versed the Boring coast from Pt. Barrow to the mouth of the Yu- kon, and if his part of the Terri tory is the most isolated, in his opinion, it is the most livable.
 eve have all the modern, con- veniences at Nome" Sullivan said, land since the 1884 fire, we have been building an up-to-date modern city" The senator said that the fire, which completely destroyed the towns business district, was the dying gasp of the old Nome of the gold rush days of go and '00, which attract ed ten to fifteen thousand men and women to its glistening beaches. Since the blaze, streets have been widened, shacks elim mated, and the horse drawn fire apparatus abandoned in favor of motorized equipment.
 "You should not forget that all of Alaska does not lie in Gas tineau Channel Sullivan said. "The people of the Boring Coast are among the finest alive, and we are blessed with lasting friendships" He described some of the church work being 1lnder-  taken by various determinations in the region.
 The other legislators who were introduced by Winn at the affair included Senators Walker, Ro- den, La Boyteaux and Rivers, and Representatives Davis, Dowd, Gordon, GlaCormick, Me Cutchaon, Rogse, Smith, Spencer and Walker.
