BOAT KARB0R DREDGING IS 65
 PERCENT DONE
Boats Warned 10 Keep Out UnfiI Big Dredge
 Finishes Task

Dredging of the Juneau small boat harbor will be finished about the first of the year, according to estimates of the dredging con- cern.
 The work was 65 percent com pleted this week, with more than 250,O0O yards moved out of the total of 294,00O called for in the contract.
 Dredgers ask that boats keep out of the harbor until after the work is done, as the big dredge is ham, pered in it's work by vessels seek ing premature anchorage inside the breakWater.
 The City has accepted delivery on large consignment of float logs and will begin as soon as the dredge moves out of the way tC set piling and build floats for tht harbor.
