By LEW WILLIAMS. Jr.

After dropping one to the fast semi-pro Metlakatla team Saturday night, Wrangell Highs Wolves came! back to take Douglas High in stride Wednesday night as they pointed for the "big games" tonight and to- morrow night in the local gym with Petersburg Highs Vikings.
 Wolves go into this week ends games slight faVorites as Coach Wingard's hoopsters dropped three in a row to Kayhi last week on their home floor, making Kayhi the big hurdle for the Wolves before they can tie into Skagway for the South east championship. Tonight and to- morrow, however, are THE games for the Wolves and Vikings. They stand now one and one so the week end games should be killer-dillers as the famed rivalry of years standing keys players and spectators to top pitch.
 Last Saturday night Metlakatla beat the Wolves 16 to 40. The local boys did their best but were defin- lely OuIclaSSeu Dy the Oluef anu much more experienced Metlakatlans who, though they couldn't go through the Wrangell defense, shot over it. The outsiders showed the crowd some very pretty shots from out by the center line.
 Wednesday was quite different as the Wolves tore into the Douglas Hi lads, from up north, and defeated them to the tune of 25-7. It was probably the toughest game seen on this floor in years. Wrangell com- mitted 15 personal fouls to Douglas's s 16. The last quarter Wrangell lost 3 centers on fouls. Wies went out first and Lewis replaced hm, in four minutes he committed four fouls which put him off the floor, with Lloyd replacing him. Lloyd got iris ky in a few minutes and was put out for unnecessary roughness 'Stokes finished the last few minutes as center. Douglas last 2 men go ing out on personal fouls.

ABINGDON - The Japanese attack on the Salween river line wavered and broke in the Paan area before a stout British imperial defense and bayonet charge in another vital sec tor sent the invaders scrambling for cover, abandoning their weapons. The British command said a violent enemy attack in the Paan area of the river front 30 miles above Mar taban was successfully defended af- ter heavy fighting and the Japanese temporarily have abandoned oper- ations."
 At Martaban a unit of the York shire light infantry got to close quarters with the invaders and charged with bayonets. The enemy fled, throwing away their weapons and suffering considerable casual ties, the communique said.

 Just before young Otto Teller and his brother Albert started from the dock Saturday morning they had a fire in one of the hunks. They threw sleeping bag and blankets oY- erboard, and thought they had eX- tinguished the blaze. Nearing High Island, bound for Dry Straits to fish shrimp, they again smelled smoke and dashed below to locate and put it out. While they were doing so, the boat got ill so close to the beach that she struck before they could Yeer off, the boys reported to their father. Next day they hailed Jim Harvey who was passing in his boat and were taken off Insurance Ad- juster E. M.

Thornton W. Burgess

Hardly had Sammy settled himself
in the evergreen tree when he saw
Chatterer the Red Squirrel jump to
the roof of the corncrib from the
limb of the tree which overhung it.,
Almost In flash Chatterer had
disappeared through hole just
under the edge of the roof. No
sooner was he out of sight than
Reddy Fox ran swiftly across to the
old stone wall on the edge of the
Old orchard and hid behind it..
Right away Sammy Jay guessed
that Chatterer had had something
to do with the terrible fright he had
had at the corncrib. when his bill
was caught as he pecked at the corn
between the cracks in the wall.
TT wasn't trap at all, but Chat
terer!" thought Sammy, and right
away he grew so angry that he
could hardly sit still. But he
wanted to see what Chatterer would
do next, so he bit his tongue to
keep it still. Pretty soon out came
Chatterer with his cheeks stuffed
full of corn. That was too much
for Sammy Jay. He forgot all about
his promise not to make a sound.
He darted out of his hiding place
and few at Chatterer in a terrible
rage, screaming at the top of his
voice and calling Chatterer every
bad thing he could think Of. OF
course, Chatterer couldn't reply be-
cause his cheeks were so stuffed
with corn. but he could run. Like
