Hunief Kill, Doe, Bui
 Fined

Frank Dufresne, executive officer of the Alaska Game Commission, today told a story of Juneau hunter who fearlessly brought a doe he had shot back to the city and was held entirely blameless.
 The man, whose name Dufresne did not divulge. was hunting yes terday with friend. The friend called, Here comes a buck just as deer broke through the brush. The hunter shot. but the charge brought down a doe which was preceding the buck through the woods and the buck escaped.
 Then arose the problem of whether to leave the dead doe there in the woods to spoil or to dress the animal out, bring the carcass back to the city and face fine for violation of a game law, plead ing only that the shot was an acci- dent
 The hunter chose the latter al- ternative. Arriving in Juneau with the doe, he gave the deer to Ark eta's Children's Home for meat and reported the incident to the game commission.
 T wish that all hunters con- fronted with the same problem would do the same thing" Dufresne declared today. "A certain number Of does are bound to be killed by accident every hunting season and t is much better that the meat be used. In the matter of prosecut- ing cases like this for game law violation, we always try to use some judgement"

 The fort comprises a huge area some 100 by 70 miles in size, he said, and composed of just the right sort of terrain for war games. Sta tioned there, he said, is the second army division, the nations best panzer troops, and the fourth di- vision, motorized. It Is also the place where parachute troops are trained, Walther explained, and at times the skies are full of soldiers parachuting from planes in prac- tice maneuvers.
 The first few weeks at the school, Georgia heat almost got the five Alaska men, Walther said, but they soon grew accustomed to 1t.
 One of the features at the school, Walther said, is troop trained to demonstrate all types of warfare. On a few hours notice. he declared, these crack troops could put on a great show, of any sort of man. euyres.

GAMBLING ENDS AID
 TO HIkER5
Peneovi( Evi(ted Buf Hofel Shelters Women and
 Children Free "A

Dr. F. H. Fencovic's recent run of good luck at the pan and poker tables of a Juneau cardroom to- day heaped hard luck upon the tall. bearded leader who brought his Telegraph Creek ex- petition to town last week.
 After receiving complaints that Pencovic had spent two evenings gambling at cards, the Territorial Department of Welfare, which has been paying the hotel and eating expenses of Pencovic. his wife, two children, his secretary a n d companion, issued the following 
 The Department of Public Well fare has notified the restaurant and hotel concerned that it no longer will pay food and lodging bills for Dr. F. H. Pencovic and party. Dr. Pencovic apparently has money enough to support his party. because he has money enough to gamble
 Evicted from Hotel
 First reaction to the, depart ment's notice came at the hotel, where Pencovic and his compan- ion, Edward Griffith of Arizona, were ordered to leave. Hotel of ficials said Mrs. Pencovic and the two children and the doctors sec- Miss Alice Britzell, would be given free lodging at the hotel.
 You can't evict helpless women and children it was explained at the hotel. But the two men have been asked to leave"
 Food for the party will not be- come a problem for a few days yet, welfare officials said, because they have not yet exhausted the credit the department originally es- .ablished for them at the restaur- ant where they have been eating.
 Pencovie and his party arrived from Wrangell last week after having been told in Petersburg to get back on the boat and keep going" Hoping to gather material for a book by covering route no other family has travelled, the party hiked from Hazelton, B. C., to Telegraph Creek through will derness country in A days. From Telegraph Creek they secured q free steamer ride down the Stikine River to Wrangell, where Pencovic and Griffith worked at manual labor for several days before board ing a northbound steamer which finally delivered the party here.
 Notified he would have to leave the hotel, PencoVic sadly accept- ed the information, thanked the hotel manager for permitting the women and children to remain and, at the request of the Juneau Police Department, called on City Magistrate Grover c. Vim at the City Hall. Judge Winn sug- gested that Pencovic and Griffith find work, possibly as miners.
 Willing to Work
 I'm looking for work Penco- vic explained later, and I've been looking for work since I arrived However, physical examination would reveal that I'm physically unable to stand hard labor any injured myself while work ing in Wrangell.
 But I'm willing to work. I'm an excellent mathematician, I've had drafting experience, can do of flee filing. I know survey work and could be of assistance to an architect, for instance, with lit tie practice
 Both Pencovic and Griffith have

registered with the Territorial En- ployment Service, the doctor said.
 As for that gambling-I admit it!" Pencovic said T bummed a cigarette from gentleman in the lobby of the hotel one evening and he gave me a dollar and told me to go buy some cigarettes None of us had any cash when we came to town.
 T went to the cardroom to buy the cigarettes but I noticed tn pan game and bought myself in. I won $5 at pan and then moved to the poker table where I won S7.50. r.
 Money to Wife
 Last night, after giving most of the money to my wife which had won the night before, I again played pan and poker, losing $50 at poker and then picking up S575 at pan.
 T don't see why such fuss is being made about my gambling. Everyone gambles-and after all, I was open and above board abo.lt it. didn't use any welfare money or anything like that. Of course, 
 gambling and the Department of Welfare was forced to shut off any aid to us. The department isn't to blame, but don't, see why people should resent my gambling. I could only have, lost one dol lar, and that was the dollar which was given to me. As it is, the chill dren and my wife derived some
