Health Engineer Stops
Sale OF Outside Milk

Kaarld w Nasi, public health
engineer, department of health,
headquarters at juneau, in Ketchi-
kan Monday stressed the importance
of central pasteurized milk plant
for Ketchikan, states the Fishing
News.
His investigations, he said, indi-
Gated that pasteurized milk shipped
bacteria content allowed by law.
bacteria contents allowed by law.
He said that although the milk
when shipped from the outside was
thoroughly sterilized and according
to law, that pasteurized milk when
held any length of time rapidly in
ereases in bacteria content.
The bacteria content, ne said,
can be held down in another pro-
cess, but such milk when sold is
blue" and does not command a
ready sale.
In other words, according to Nasi,
milk furnished by local dairies is
the most safe and wholesome. On no
account, he says, should outside
pasteurized milk be furnished to in
fants.
He says the solution to the prob
lem is for the local diaries to add
more cows and furnish all the local
milk consumed, and also to coop
eratively agree on a pasteurized Gen.
trail plant, or else for a private COM
pany to put in such plant for the
benefit of all the local milk dealers
He says that at the present time
local diaries can furnish nearly all
the milk required.
Nasi said that sometimes house
wives are pleased because of the
manner in which Outside milk can
be whipped into cream. This is be-
cause, he says, of the large bac-
terra element. The engineer praised
the cleanliness and sanitation of the
Alaska dairymen.
Mr. Nasi will return to Ketchikan
in about two weeks to look over
municipal sanitation and food han
oilers.

Cocktail Bill Passes
Senate By ROden Vote

JUNEAU. Alaska, Feb. 3-lSpe-
eial to the Wrangell sentinel1-The
Walker cocktail bill passed the Sen
ate Thursday with a vote of To
3 and now goes to the House.
After two weeks of fiery debate
Roden switched to the wet side yes
terday assuring passage Of the bill.
Opposing were Rivers, Cochran and
Sullivan.
If successful the bill insures bar
drinks for all. Scores of protests
were unavailing. La BoyteauX de-
elared none of the protesters would
be forced to go inside a saloon to
take a drink Cochran GRATED a
solid hour in vain. He read a tele-
gram from Ketehikan beer dispen-
sers saying the big interests would
import outside bartenders to mix
drinks thus throwing locals out of
work.
Two other liquor bills are before
the House, demanding referendum
on Territorial control and Territor-

The House Thursday passed a bill
disallowing expenses of all Terri

WrangeIl Mans Name
Headquarters Ballot

A spirited election is anticipated
by Cannery Workers Auxiliary Tn
ion members when they cast ballots
next Wednesday for headquarters
officers.
The Wrangell local endorses sam
Murchison of Metlakatla for Bresl-
dent and Don Miller of Wrange!l for
secretary reasurer.
While the ballots have not been
received it is understood there are
other candidates for the office of
seeretary-treasurer For that reason
union leaders at Wrangell are urg-
ing every member not to neglect to
vote as Wrangell needs will be serv-
ed best by having a local man as
headquarters officer.
Miller was endorsed here, it is
said, because he has been largely
instrumental in making the Wran-

one of the organizers of the local

No Funds for Railroad


The budget for the fiscal year
1910 does not carry any appropri-
alton out of federal funds for the
Alaska Railroad for any purpose and
the only item Indicating the amount
of any appropriation is an item
designated Special Account Alaska
Railroad Special Fund-This fund
is derived from operating revenues
of the Alaska Railroad, reimburse
ments for materials and supplies and
special deposits for various purposes
AS N.S.C. 306; decision of comp
troller general A-35435). Estimate
1910, $2,625, 900. Appropriated 1888
$2,3O0,OOO. Revised 1899, $780,
O0O."
This means that the estimate of
income of the Alaska Railroad for
the fiscal year 1910 to end with
June 80, 1910, is $2,625,000. 1t is
understood that this estimate is
made by the bureau of the budget
and is not the estimate made by Of
ficials of the Alaska Railroad, nor
of the Interior Department. Howey-
er, even the estimates made by the
Alaska Railroad officials indicate
that the income of the railroad for
this period will be sufficient to
maintain the present wage scale.
Accordingly, there is no occasion to
ask Congress at the present time to
appropriate any money whatever TO
maintain the scale of wages paid to
employees of the railroad.
Beginning on July /, 1888, the
compensation of the employees of
the Alaska Railroad was increased
10 per- cent. In order to make GER
tain that the increased compensa-
ton could be paid Congress made
an appropriation of 100000, in
Guided in the Interior Department
appropriation bill for the fiscal year
1889, and by the report of the Sen
ate Appropriations Committee the
amount was virtually ear-marked to
take care of the increased wages
With the present outlook this will
not be necessary for the 1910 fiscal
year.
The budget, as indicated above
embraces no appropriation for new
funds for the railroad and hence lit
tie, if anything, will be available
with which to build new bridges OIL
do other necessary rehabilitation
work Whether Congress will ap-
propriate any funds for such pur-
poses, lacking an estimate from the
bureau of the budget, cannot be
known at this time.

ALASKA SHIPS
FROM SAILING

The sailings OF the North Coast
from Seattle this morning and the
Mount Mckinley tomorrow morning
have been indefinitely postponed
according to word received today by
the Mccormack Dock Company from
the Northland Transportation Com
pany and the Alaska Steamship
Company.
The transportation tieup, accord
ing to radio adyiees first received
here Thursday night, is due to the
demands Of the Masters, Mates and
Pilots union for higher pay and bet
ter living conditions aboard ship.
1t Is reported that the pay de-
mand is for an increase of $50
month, aud a guarantee of eleven
months of work in a year or eleven
months pay.
Local sympathy generally is ex-
pressed for the strikers as they car
ry heavy responsibilities and claim
their pay is far out of line at The
present with that of steamship en-
ployees in other departments.
From past experience it is be-.
lieyed here that if the dispute is
not settled soon, a Canadian liner
will bring mail and passengers to
southeastern Alaskan ports, but

Fairfax Champs Win

Coach Scott Captures
Sixth County Title
In 10 Compoiens
BY GEORGE HUBER.

JenerSOn High OF Falls Church,
Va, today became the first Fair
fax County school to receive an in
vitation to The Stars metropoli-
tan basket ball championship tour
nament since the series was inaugu-
rated seven years ago and infor-
mally accepted for the competition,
to open March 6 at Tech.
1t won its place in the tourney,
which decides the best schoolboy
quint in the Washington metro
politan area, by going undefeated
this season in IA games and win
ming the Fairfax County champion
ship for the second consecutive
year.
The title was cinched Tuesday,
when Jefferson defeated Fairfax
High, its traditional rival, 1926, in
a battle on the neutral Lee-Jack-
son court.
Not without overcoming several
handicaps did Jefferson attain the
distinction of being the only unde-
feated schoolboy five in and around
Washington. For one thing, it must
draw its material from a student
BODY that contains less than 100
boys. far fewer than at any of the
other schools it will meet in The
Star tourney.
Once organized, the team fur
ther was handicapped by having no
gymnasium of its own in which to
practice. For training sessions it
used an abandoned church in Falls
Church, and on good days it prac-
tlced outdoors.
But In spite of that, Coach Charles
Scott whipped together a quint that
has defeated every team it met
playing all its games on foreign
courts.
This years championship team
is the sixth titleholder that Scott
has turned out in 10 years at JET
ferson. and he considers it one of
the best. During his schoolboy days
he played at Marshall (Va.) High
and later attended William and
Mary, although not a member of the
varsity quint there.
The Falls Church championship
flVe is captained by Bunny Gibson
who, although one of the smallest
boys on the team, is its best floor
player and passer. Scoring honors
are divided almost equally between
Rubin McNab and Ed Gchabod)
Dixon.
The other starting members of the
Well-knit team are Monk Ward and
Willard Simpson, while players who
nave seen much service in utility
roles are Richard Elliott and Paul
Redington.

Glenn to Give Losh Needed
Lesson in 2-MiIe Timino

Glenn still has more than enough
sprint in his system to beat all the
mllers in the world, but it looks as
though he is ready now to expand
The change may be a boon to
Lash. This barrel -chested cop-he
chases motorists On foot for the
Indiana State police force, to give
the outfit a change of pace-is a
running fool in more ways than
one. He can hurl himself around
a track all day, but strictly without
benefit OF scince. Many a coach
has been kind enough to remark
that Lash doesn't know what the
heck he is doing in there
If he had Cunninghams sense
of pace, they figure, he could shoot
holes in the 2-mile record. Well.
Cunningham now is going out and
give Donald living sermon on the
art of timing.
It's satisfactory to know that
Cunningham still is at his peak.
This means he has a finish kick in
his SCARED, slender legs. Lash has
a murderous kick of his own. They
are apt to shave whole seconds off
the record in the stretch alone.
Paayo Nurmi was the father of
"even pace" Cunningham spon-
sored the faster second half as
applied to the mile. In the 2-mile,
though, he thinks it might be wise
to borrow from Nurmi.
What I'd shoot for" he said a
year ago, would be miles at about
APT apiece"
Now his hackers are talking about
a couple of 4:25 miles. That would
make total of $50, blowing the
record to bits.
It's worth looking into, and Cum
ningham will probe it right to the
bottom. He seldom undershoots
when he has real target. Remem-
ber Dartmouth and the four-four
mile.

fielding will get him by, but he must
hit during the exhibition games.
Vernon came as a pleasant sur
prise to Harris and Griffith. The
youngster, fresh out of Villanova,
was dug up and characteristiclly
touted by Scout Joe Cambria. The
little scout says that Vernon is bet
ter than Wasdell. So far nobody
is willing to agree completely, but
off what Vernon has shown so far
he is pretty close to Jimmy.
Vernon, like Aderholt, is a big boy.
He stands several inches taller than
Wasdell He is not long hitter,
but sharp, line-drive swatter.
This is the type for Griffith
Stadium, where even the longest
clouters cannot consistently hit over
the fences.
Wasdell is the favorite, as far as
1889 is concerned But Griffith is
envisioning the day when he will
have one of the youngest and ran
giest infields in the majors-Buddy
Lewis at third Cecil Travis at short,
Aderholt at second and Vernon on
first. 1T might happen" says Gri1.
Might happen in two years, as
matter of fact"
The only trouble with this infield
of the future is that, like the present
one. it will embrace all left-handed
hitters. Griff is beginning to be-
lieve they don't make right-handed
batters any more.
But while the Mats are preparing
to move to Tinker Field for the
fourth straight year, rumor has it
that Washington baseball forces
may be using the park for the last
time.
Griffith wants to return to Or
lando next year, but he also wants
to bring another major league club.
The Pirates are believed to be in
terested. If Pittsburgh joins the
Mats here next winter, then Griffith
will ask for, and undoubtedly re-
ceive. a new downtown ballyard, in
which event he will turn Tinker
Field over to the National Leaguers.

rious injury to my three best play
ers on such a treacherous floor?
You can say for me that as long
as I'm coach no Maryland basket
ball team will play at Tech High
again until the condition of the
floor is satisfactory"
That was Coach Burton Ship
ley's after-game statement and ex-
planation today as to why he kept
Capt. George Knepley, George De
Witt and Eddie johnson on the
bench in that 24-37 losing game
against George Washington yester-
day until the game hopelessly was
lost.
He didn't make his intentions
known before the game, which
brought howl of disapproval from
the close to 5000 spectators who
had expected close game between
the regular Maryland and G. w.
teams.
Shipley Considers Crowd.
Shipley, in using his three star
players, said he did so only be-
cause there was such a large crowd
at the game. He said that If he
had lost any one of the three he
would just as well have Cancelled
his entry in the Southern Con-
ference tourney next week.
AS a matter of fact. Tech is al
most as foreign" to G. w. as it is
to Maryland. The Colonials do not
practice there and have only nine
nome games this year. Coach
Bill Reinhart of G. w. doesn't say
Techs playing surface is perfect.
but he's willing to make the best of
the situation.
According to Shipley. however, any
future games he may play against
G. w. will be at College Park or on
some other satisfactory" floor.

Game a Rout From Start.
Even with Jack ButterWorth, in
eligible under Southern Conference
rules. and lacking the scoring eye
of Bob Faris, who had one of his
rare off days, G. w. turned the
game into runaway from the
start. 1t scored 13 points before Per-

it had 23-7 lead at half time.
Not until the score stood at 29-9
and Knepley, Johnson and De Witt
were inserted at intervals, did Mary

then the cause was hopeless.

Thrilling Tie Earns
Columbus Boxers
Clean Slate
Keody's Victory in Lost
Bout Brings Deadlock
With Louisiana Tech

Columbus University today owned
another undefeated boxing record,
hardly novel experience to the EX-
plorers, but the manner in which it
salvaged its season last night in
earning a A draw with Louisiana
Tech at Turner's Arena thrilled some
1900 spectators.
1t was Andy Ready, a heavy
weight, who was knocked out last
week, who saved Columbus unblem-
| lshed slate after being floored in
the first round. Ready rallied to
outpoint Bruce BaTlemay, to climax
the Explorers uphill scrap.
Explorers Away Limping.
Columbus was two down after the
first pair of engagements as Joe
Wojecki scored technical knockout
over Phil Appel in minute 20
seconds of the third round and Rob-
ert Hand grabbed a decision over
Leo Marcopolis.
Buddy Lazear temporarily halted
what appeared at that point to be
rout for Louisiana Tech by chilling
Edward Wiley after only 25 seconds
of the first round in the lightweight
engagement, with crushing right
to the midsection.
Issue Left to Ready.
Bill Wiley boosted Louisiana Tech
into 81 lead by outpointing Jim
Willis in the 145-pound class bout,
but Bert Parod won a third-round
technical Knockout over Guy Car
roll and Bill Crum outmaneuvered
Merton Barnett to place Columbus
on even terms.
Columbus Lou Hayman offered
little opposition to Rip Pipes in the
175-pound bout and the issue was
left up to Ready, who responded
with hard-earned victory.
