Eugene McRoberts, 14-year-old son of MT. and Mrs. Boris Cher nikoff, is at St. Ann's Hospital suffering from slight concus- sion, a deep gash in the left arm and possible skull fracture as the result of an accident which occurred shortly before noon today when the youth was struck by a car driven by Duane Haffner. He was still unconscious late this afternoon, according to Dr. c. 0. Garter, attending physician.
 An Empire news seller, young McRoberts was on his way from school to sign up for this after hoon,s papers.

 symptoms: Tnfantile paralysis beings as an acute illness wi h sudden onset, usually associated with fever, headache, stomach up- sets, such as vomiting or constipa- tion; drowsiness, associated at times with an irritability, and when fairly we'll developed, some stiffness of the neck and spine usually with pain when the head is brought forward towards the chest. It is usually impossible to diagnose the disease with certainty until actual paralysis develops Thus, the disease is often missed in its early stages and commonly diagnosed as a cold or an attack of influenza.
 Under the present circumstance es in Juneau and Haines, the oc- currence of these four cases should cause no real alarm, but one should be aware of the fact that an cpl demic form of infantile paralysis can appear very suddenly. Parents whose children show signs of the symptoms as described above should contact their family physician im- mediately to rule out the possi- bility of the presence of infantile paralysis"

Psychologists say people who draw weird hieroglyphics on pads during telephone conversations are generally worried about something. These probers of the human mind should range along the 52nd Street bars and watch the bar-dawdlerS for a few hours.
 There is a frequent guest at Leon & Eddie's who sits at the bar hours on end beating out tunes with a spoon. I have seen him there at intervals of weeks or months for the last several year, and the rou- tine never varies.
 Another frequent imbiber, though I have never known him to be in toxicated, sits for hours in Twenty One ripping paper matches apart and piling them into little rows like cordwood. He does it every night of his life. Now when he comes in, the walters gravely place a dozen or so folders of matches before him.

Under ruling Of Attorney General
John w. Bonner, it is possible for a
tenant in common of an interest in
real property to redeem such interest
from a tax sale by paying the taxes,
interest and penalty proportionate TO
his interest. This is believed to apply
to mineral interests as well as to
mortgage or other lien. There Is no
question but that an undivided inter-

is held in common, is property in the
same sense and meaning as though 1t
