DISCOVERED AS
PRANK OF BOYS
Two Juneau Youngsters
Make ExpIosives-Shake
Residential Area

City police, investigating myter-
ious blasts that shook the residential
district bordering Evergreen Bowl
Monday night and yesterday, traced
the trouble to two chemically am
bilious Juneau High School lads IN
their first years of the upper grades.
1t seems that Horace Adams, Jr.
freshman, ID, and Gilbert Monroe,
IS, sophomore, have the chemical
bug
Like most boys who play with
chemicals. they sought a mixture
that would explode, but when they
set off their Monday night formula,
they heard boom that exceeded
their widest expectations and they
tried it again the succeeding day.
+ The result was, that terrified resi-
dents called police, and the two boys
were traced down and given reprl-
mands by school officials and police
The mixture has something OF
other to do with potassium chloride
sulphur, and other ingredients

FOX FARMER OF

winter on the island
But Wilde isn't only getting ac-
! uuainted again. He is planting
germs of "fishermans ITCH" wher-
ever the subject of trout fishing
arises.
There has been a lot of discussion
as to the difference between Rain
bow Truot and Steelhead Trout.
Some say the steelhead is but sea-
going rainbow Others say the
steelhead is a salmon and distinct
species.
/ At any rate. Otto Wilde has fished
stream about six miles from En-
trance Island, where rainbows go
as heavy as twelve pounds"
Frank Dufresne, Executive Officer
of the Alaska Game Commission,
says the trout is different from steel
head. and certainly does look more
"trouty' than il does like salmon.
Otto doesn't fish much anymore,
he says He finds himself kept busy
on his fox ranch, and just offers the
information for those who would
appreciate catching such fish.
The Wildes have one of the pref
test spots in Southeast Alaska at
Entrance Island. with perfect har-
Dor. plenty of water, and plenty of
trees for wind protection.
This spring, Otto pelted 140 blue
foxes, and says he is still expand

marking the successful eonsumma-

with Socony- Vacuum Oil company
which is processing the crude in the
new Glacier Production refinery at
Cut Bank.
The first distribution was some
thing in excess of $4,000, based
on prices posted by Producers Re-
filming of 80 cents for Kelvin and
s1.1O for Cut Bank crude.
Eighteen producers banded to-
gether in this company pledged
their production and reserves to
make possible the entrance OF So
cony Vacuum Oil company into

to market only Montana-made pro-
ducts in this state. The new plant
went on stream during September

MOST ACTIVE

The north end Of the main Cut
Bank oil field again held attention
this week as a well with an ini-

and another well, directly north
of the main gas field, showed oil in
the Cut Bank sand.

southeast of the Lander pool, in

sand with no break" between the
Sunburst and Cut Bank sands, from
1885 to 1928, but its oil comes
from 2914 to 1925. Pipe was set
at 1881.

Wyoming refining industry Is
greatly overbuilt partially as result
of wartime and Immediate postwar
demand, but the people OF the state
and the oil companies want to keep
up the refining activity which has
become Wyoming's most important

TWO PEDESTRIANS ARE
KILLED ON HIGHWAYS

Rocky Mount, Oct. 31.-Two men
were killed and several cars were
badly smashed as Nash and Edge
combe counties experienced their
most violent weekend in several
months.
The first 1ala1 accident occurred
Saturday afternoon when Kelly
Parker, 55-year-o1d farmer Of
car driven by w. j. Baker, of
Oak Level township, and died on
the way to a Rocky Mount hos
pital. The accident happened on a
curve near Langley's Crossroads.
The coroner's jury met Sunday
afternoon and found that reckless
driving on the part Of Baker caused
the death.
Coroner M. C. Gulley said that
the car was evidently coming at
such a rate Of speed that it swung
over to the other side of the road
and hit the pedestrian when it at
tempted to make the curve.
The other accident, in which Des-
sic Proctor, 80, of route 1, Elm
City, was killed, occurred near
Temperance Hall in Edgecombe
county Sunday morning. Proctor
was instantly killed when struck
by a car driven by James ElWood
Proctor, "a, of Temperance Hall, as
he law in the Riddle of the dirt
::Oad.
Elwood Proctor brought the body
to Rocky Mount and reported the
accident.
Coroner j. C. Raby held an in
quest Sunday morning. 1t was in
dlcated that no action would be
taken against Elwood Proctor.
Considerable property damage
was done in other accidents, which
occurred in Red Oak, near Spring
Hope, in Edgecombe county, and
in three wrecks within Rocky
Mount. No injuries were sustained
in these despite the fact that two
of the cars rolled over two or three
times.
Funeral services were held for
both the victims Monday afternoon.
Mr.. Proctor is survived by his
wife, two sons, his parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. B. w. Proctor, two sisters and
four brothers.
