of the tennis courts have been repalnted and two of the park tables are freshly painted and ready to be placed in the park for the public use. Both toilets have fresh coats of paint and have been thoroughly cleaned. The swimming lines and depths have been painted in the new pool to help complete that for use as soon as the neces- sary construction work has been completed.
 . Work on Pool M
 It has been necessary to do considerable amount of excavating work in the front of the pool where the dressing rooms are to be con- str,icted. This dirt shas been car- ried to the front and sides to level the ground around the pool. Also certain amount of landscaping has been done in the park and it is hoped that more can be- done before the summer is over Most of the grass has been cut in the park and around the tennis courts but there still remains the entire ball field to be cut and raked. The pathways into the Bowl are in bad shape and work will be started upon them as soon as some of the other more urgent work has been com pleted.
 The mems soft ball league has q poor start so far as only one team has reported, the Luther League. Any other persons managing teams are urged to call the office and get their team entered immediately. 70 that they will be eligible for the soft ball trophy.
 Adults are urged to use the Bowl as their recreation center. Few cities in the States have as fine 2 place for picnic dinner as the park affords the city of Juneau. Containers will be placed in t h 2 park so that picnickers can place their refuse in them. Especial care is suggested in disposing of bottles to avoid broken glass. With your help and cooperation Juneau can have park and playground of which she can be proud, says Harold F. Roth, Recreational Di- rector of Evergreen Bowl.

It appeared last night that the Douglas Red Coats have the first half of the league schedule in lead pipe cinch, after ignonimously whip ping the handicapped Elks in nine inning contest that saw Claude Erskine almost at his pitching best as he famed IA men and lead the Islanders to a 2 to victory over the Elkmen.
 Two more games the Douglas nine has to play in this half and both are scheduled against the lowly, eel Jared Elks.
 | The Elks ran out onto the field half-hour after slated starting time, after waiting in vain for the remainder of the squad to show. Then as rainbow hung over Mount Roberts in the rain-cleared air, the Elkmen went up to bat to take the first run of the evening in game that was alternately fast game of screwball and close, wi ley ball handling.
 Dizzy Start
 The first frame started right in with the unusual and the unac- countable as little Sammy Taguchi leaned one on his last strike to send it out to center field for a double. Nielsen grounded out and Lewis came up. knocked high fly into right field. Andy Andrews step ped in under it, caught it, dropped it and allowed Taguchi to come in after the pebble. But Lewis, limping from foot injury, was put out on first for three way after Taguchi made the run and Andrews recov- cred. s
 The Islanders immediately retail lated when they switched field to chalk up three runs in the remainder of the frame. Manning singled Wiley who had taken base on balls, and then Rusty Rustad clipped into the longest home run of the season as he clipped one out over the left center fence and brought in Man ming
 Pitchers Duel : Then came hurlers' battle as Erskine and Koski bore, down on the bat and the two outfields held the score at standstill until the sixth. Then Rustad pulled in his second run of the game as he walk ed, got knocked in by Rollers single, only score of the inning.
 Koski repeated the first canto in the seventh when he walked Wiley. then gave single to Erskine to bring in the Douglas catcher, mere ly the beginning of three-run frame. Jimmy Manning took a single from Koski. and Eddy Nielsen chalk ed up an error for himself, trotted in another run. Claude Erskine made the last score of the game after taking a one-base hit as he nonchalantly made home on a pass ed ball by Reischl, only catcher in the league with a good arm for second base, but also tops in the passed balls section.
 The score stood 2 to at this stage of the game and then the boys calm ed down for the remainder, scoring no more.

RAPID CITY, s. D. = Lincoln Borglum first saw Mount Rush more from the back of a pony while accompanying his sculptor father on a week-long tour of the Black Hills IT years ago.
 Young Borglum was Il years old then. Today at the age of 28 he surveys the heights of Rushmore from scaffolds and swinging chairs as he directs the final touches to the gigantic mountain memorial his father decided upon as a result of that early horseback trip.
 Gutzon Borglum's dreams of IT years ago began taking form three years later when he started carv- ing on the great granite uplife the faces of four American Presidents, Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt.
 The Borglum's father-son rela- tionship in the memorial project expanded gradually from the day when the boy probably could view his fathers dreams with little more than curiosity as they rode the mountain trails together.
 The father found the son an eager pupil, not only in the art of mountain carving but ill the whole field of scul1t1I1e
 As the work progressed they stepped naturally into the roles oi master and apprentice. In 1922, Lincoln became his fathers first assistant. It was natural that the memorial commission should choose him to carry on after his fathers death last March 6.
 Little remains to be done to finish the work as father planned it," he said. T want only to carry on as he wished
 Carving of the faces, 65 feet from chin to crown, was completed be- fore the father died, and Lincoln has said the features Of the folr Presidents will not be touched.
 fs.We've got to finish the hair on Jefferson, Roosevelt and. Lincoln. do some work on Lincoln's collar and on his head,9 young Borglu.n explained. That's the immediate program and we'll complete it by July of this year. a'N
 Lincoln said he hoped Congress would appropriate additional funds to carry out the comprehensive memorial plan worked by bis father. This includes an 800-foot stone stairway from the studio at the foot of the granite escarpment to the heads on top and a hall of records which Borglum two years ago began chiseling out in a cleft behind the figures.
