Gen. Malin Craig is preparing to
turn over his Job as War Depart

this week, weeks ahead Of schedule.
And without referring directly to
other officers who in retirement
have done otherwise, he said crisply

1885. Already expanding, the Air
Corps Is on the eve of trebling its
strength. Arms, supplies and hous-

Now, at the close of a strenuous
and colorful 45-year career, Gen.
Craig is frankly loath to devote his
days to golf and travel alone.
There was no such civil admins
trative opening for him as for Ad-
miral William D. Leahy, retiring
chief of naval operations, whom
President Roosevelt made Governor
of Puerto Rico.
Gen. Craig turned down overtures

he commented.
With Mrs. Craig, the general is
going to make an automobile tour

brother and son, both Army officers,
at Fort Sill, Okla. Then they are
going house hunting in the vicinity

 But the sinking proposition is another thing Petersburg Coach Les Wingard brings his fast-break- ing Norsemen to Juneau with the promise that the title will go back to Petersburg.
 Petersburg does have basket ball team. They have range, speed, and good basket eyes. Petersburg has fine gymnasium and the squad has made good use of it, whipping up High School basket ball aggregation that would do credit to any High Sctool.
 It will be the first time this sea son that local fans have seen Ju- neau Highs Crimson Bears up against any real competition in their own age brackets. They have played Haines and Douglas, and beaten them easily, but those two schools lacked the size to turn out number one basketball squads,
 Petersburg has cracking good squad, and Juneau has another fine team. It adds up to "gcsi contest"

A STRATEGIC MOVE

5. Just to be sure that Mussolni would have no further excuse to re- main in Spain, France and Great Britain recognized Franco as soon as it was certain he'd won. Tardy recognition of the Franco regime would have been the one excuse for Mussolini's troops to stick around in Spain to guarantee. that Franco's victory stuck. But now Spain has been recognized. It's Mussolini's move.
 G. That's what put Mussolini on the spot. If he expects trouble in Europe soon--some military move ment by Hitler, say, or a flare-back from his quarrel with France over African colonies-he would natur- ally find some plausible excuse to keep Italian troops in Span.
 Italian troops in Spain are a di- rect threat to France, forcing her to plan defenses of both her Italian and Spanish borders. Spanish air planes and submarines in the Bal earics-where they now are-could menace Branch communciati ton with her African possessions.
 So Italian military positions in Spain give Mussolini something of a drop on France. And since France is Great Britain's first line of de- fense, those positions are not so agreeable in London, either. If a fel- low expects trouble, and he has the drop on his adversary, he doesn't quietly put his gun in the holster he keeps the barrel up and his finger on the trigger.
 Those are the big reasons why experts here are watching Musso- lini. If his intentions are peaceful, and if he expects no European fur ore in the immediate future, he'll put his gun away Otherwise. he may keep it drawn. The experts say either move will telegraph his in tentioris to the world.

MRS. RAY DAY RETURNS FROM
 VACATION TRIP
Juneau Woman Back After Four-Month Sojourn
 in South

After four months of leisure, which time was spent visiting in
 Washington, D. C., Los Angeles Miami, Florida, and Havana, Cuba, Mrs. Ray c. Day returned home Hast night on the Northland, and
 today, feeling almost like a bride, baked a cake, the first since her departure from this city, which, quoting the wellknown Juneau woman. looked like someone had sat on it."
 Going south shortly after Thanks giving, Mrs. Day went direct to
 washington. D, O., for the wedding of her niece. When asked if she
 had seen the President, the reply was negative, and that she had
 been too busy While in the Cap
 ital City, Mrs Day lunched with Delegate Anthony J. Dimond, and
 Mrs. Mae Jernburg, formerly of this city, and also enjoyed luncheon engagement with Saddle R. Dunbar,
 National President for the Woman's
 Club, of which Mrs. Day is Past
 President for the Juneau Division.
 After a seven weeks stay in
 Washington, Mrs. Day motored to
 Miami, Fla, for six weeks stay.
 Tt was in this city that she felt
 Midas touch, winning a deluxe tour
 to Havana, Cuba. Leaving Miami on the luxurious liner Florida, Mrs.
 Day enjoyed five-day vacation trip in the tropics. Staying at the
 Bristol Hotel in Havana. she was
 taken on tour of the city. visit
 ing the National Casino the Bacar-
 di distillery, all of the night clubs,
 including Sloppy Joe's." She was
 fortunate in being able to view the twenty carat diamond at the
 beautiful capital city and enjoyed
 la drive into the country, visiting various farms, plantations and the
 botanical gardens Also trip to
 Moro Castle was enjoyed, where |she saw dungeons and torture chambers used many years ago by Cuba's rulers. A portion of the huge fort, explained Mrs. Day, is now being used as a military training
 school. She visited the home of the President and Commander in n-chief of the Army, and marveled at the beautiful buildings and residences of
 Havana, which are now being made from chalk-like substance, which substance, when exposed to the air, becomes as hard as marble. This new building material is pure white, and may be used only in warm
 countries. Cuba, to Mrs Day is gorgeous sight, and, but for the
 millions of beggars, would be almost
 Utopia.
 !, Returning from Havana, Mrs. Day went to New Orleans for the Mardi Gras, and was fortunate in getting a front -lire-view of the parade, which lasted for two and one-half hours. From there she left for Los Angeles. where she spent a great deal of time, then visited the Worlds Fair at San Francisco. Treasure Island proved great dis appointment to her. as it is only about 85 percent finished. Some structures are complete, said Mrs. Day, and are really marvellous. but
 the unfinished portion really spells the effect,
 However, with all the unrest found in the States, Mrs. Day is glad to be home again. and has all
 this pleasant memory, and an ex- perience never to be forgotten.
