 Spruce Project for

manufacture of a portion of the logs cut, while the bulk will be lowed to Puget Sound mills or to Portland.
 Final dressing of the wood will be taken care of in speciality shops.
 Burdick said that spruce grows more slowly in Alaska, producing a better quality of wood which is in demand by the airplane manu- lecturers.
 Juneau Comment
 Assistant Regional Forester We'll man Holbrook, meanwhile, an- nounced in Juneau that the project means that Alaska will be making an important contribution to the war effort.
 Holbrcok said that the Secretary of Agriculture approved on June 5 an agreement between the Com modity Credit Corporation and the Forest Service, under which the Forest Service. acting as a corpor- ation agent, will conduct the huge project for the logging of spruce logs from selected areas in the southwestern part of Tongass Ma tional Forest.
 Only the larger, and more high quality trees, he said, will be cut.
 Burdick In Charge
 RegionaI Forester Frank B. Heintzleman, now in Washington, and Holbrook will have general re- sponsibility for the project. Direct ly in charge, however, will be Bur dick and J. M. Wyckoff, Forest Inspector.
 The Commodity Credit Corpora ton will buy the stumpage from the Forest Service after which Re- gional Officers will contract the logging to numerous independent logging concerns, contract the as- sembly of logs into Davis raftS of around two million feet each, ar range for towing the rafts to Pu- get Sound, and offer the logs fer sale to mills which specialize in cutting spruce airplane stock.
 Holbrook pointed out that while some of the logs will be sawed by Alaska mills, since few of the AL aska mills are capable of handling the larger logs and because in- sufficient cargo space is available to handle shipments, rafting the great bulk of the logs to Seattle is necessary.
 Set Yearly Goal 1 The goal set by Forest Service officials in this region is 100 mil lion feet of high-grade logs per year for the duration.
 Heintzleman and Burdick have been in the States for some time for the purpose of perfecting the organization Of the large projects. Forest Service timber cruise par Continued on Page FiVe)

regulations was concerning the car
rying of cameras and firearms

Hunters Cooperation Asked.
With few exceptions it is almost
impossible for duckhunter to get
into blind without breaking the
one on guns, and installations in
these areas are too important to
allow every Tom, Dick and Harry
to wander around unhampered just
because those in charge of the
district would like to allow hunting
wherever possible.
Those hunting waterfowl on the
Chesapeake and it's tributaries will
find fewer restrictions than in other
areas, it is true, but there will be
some, and to keep them from becom-
ing stringent every hunter should
do everything possible to conform,
or stay at home.
Most important is that little mat
ter OF an Identification card from
the Coast Guard, and because it takes
several weeks to get one through,
now is the time to get started on it.
Even though they may not be re-
quired in the upper bay there are
other sections where they will be.
Having one will make getting around
easier anywhere.

Watch for a lot of fancy stuff
from Anacostias Indians when they
get going in the high school football
series next month. 1t will be a
matter of necessity. says Coach Joey
Kaufman. His boys lack the bulk
and strength present on many of
the other teams, so they will rely
mainly on trick plays, passing and
speed.
The Indians last season had their
best team in the schools short
athletic history, reaching the play
offs against Central, and a fair
number of experienced players have
returned. But it seems that they
mostly are the lighter boys.
Meet Coolidge in Opener.
1t is likely the Indians will be
untested until they begin series
competition on October 2 against
Coolidge, which will be making its
debut in championship company
There is game scheduled against
Martinsburg High Saturday, but
Kaufman can't find the necessary
. transportation and may have to
cancel. He has asked Martinsburg
to come here instead, but so far
nothing definite has been arranged
The tentative starting backfield
has three experienced players, Bob
Nelson. Grant Davidson and Frank
Burbach. and a newcomer. Don
Phillips, who gives promise of being
an exceptional blocker. He weighs
ITS pounds, which makes him a
heavy man among the Indians. Da-
wilson was reserve back last sea-
son and in the little playing he
did gave promise OF becoming good

New England Areas Posted.
Up New England way where the
waterfowl season opens shortly
Coast Guard authorities already
have posted many areas against any
kind of hunting or trespass. The
defense of the coast makes any other
course impossible. AS the opening
day for the intermediate zone rolls
around hunters will find additional
areas closed. The same will be true
in this area with the arrival of No
vember and the Southern season in
spite of the desire of Coast Guard
officials to allow wild waterfowl,
hunting to continue as nearly nor
NAL as possible.
Down on the Maryland coast
Assateague and the Isle of Wight
Bay areas have been closed to hunt
ers, and there is no doubt that much
of the shooting areas on the Gun
powder and Bush Rivers will be
barred before the opening of the
season due to the vastly expanded
operations of the arsenal at Edge
wood and on the Aberdeen Proving
Grounds. For the same reason some
areas down the Potomac might be
closed.
The Norfolk captain of the port
has said so far there are no regula-
tions restricting hunting in the 5th
Naval District which covers the
North Carolina sound country, but
at the same time draws attention
to the regulation that requires all
hunters to carry the Coast Guard

Pro golfers around town, carrying
on their game in the face of certain
major curtailments next year and
possible elimination of all tourna-
ments, are planning what may be
their final splurge in october with
the playing of the Middle Atlantic
PGA championship.
Tomorrow they'll play at Indian
Spring in the Washington open, but
the PGA event is one they regard
as peculiarly their own, strictly a
pro show AL Houghton, who runs
the pro Journeys, explains it this
way: 1--WE don't know what will
happen next year, but with the
Tightening of travel restrictions, the
outlook for golf balls and the situa-
tion in general we'd better hold
our championship this year if we
can" So AL is working, with his
usual fair for promotional en-
thusiasm, at the job of lining up a
few dollars and good club for the
PGA championship. The club will
be easy to get, while bagging the
dollars will be tougher. People
nowadays are thinking more in
terms of buying War bonds or
donating to war relief than of giving
money for golf tournaments.
Isaacs Will Defend.
Jack Isaacs, the tall blond from
Tidewater Virginia, now in an Army
uniform, is the champ, and Jack un-
doubtedly will be able to get day
off from his Army duties to defend.
The date probably will be October

ington area. Meanwhile the bowling
alley operators are planning their
annual tourney for the pros and
sports writer's, probably to be played
at Kenwood october 10.
Match play will start tomorrow in
the East Potomac Park fall tourney.
with -o-medalists Earle Marcy and
AL Birmingham in opposite halves
of the draw. Marcy, winner of the
public links championship and the
spring tourney, will be playing with
a brand-new set of clubs. Earle
took one chance on a raff1ed set of
clubs at Fred McLeods golf shop,
and won 'em.

Mostly Heavy Boys Among Those to Be Lost;
Tackles Are Problem in Experienced Line

Garrett. Weighing only 145 pounds,
he can't do much plunging, but
he's a real speed merchant of the
scatback type, and some of Kauf-
mans plays have been designed
to shake him into the open. Once
clear, he'll be tough to catch. Also
fitting into the trick plays picture
is Albie Dreschler. He's particularly
handy on pass plays and throws a
long, accurate ball, but he also
kicks and runs well.
Sweeney on Injured List.
Tackles seem to present the main
problem in the lines. Bill Sweeney
was listed as Anacostias S big gun.
Weighing 100 pounds, he added
much-needed heft to the forward
wall, but he injured his collarbone
last week and likely will be missing
for several games. Listed as prob
able tackle starters now are George
Durham and Bob Etcher, both from
last years reserves. Kaufman also
has couple of holdovers, Elliott
Day and Dave Ross, as ends, and
Tom Yahraes back at center.
There is one experienced guard,
Bill Pilkerton, with plenty of good
candidates for the other spot, Pete
Ballard, John Shallcross, Moe Col
Inns and Ed Morris. This gives
Kaufman a line that can compare
with experience to any In the city,

Gloom Blankets Irish
And Badgers as They
Prepare 10 Clash
Ex-Notre Dame Grid Aces
Getting No Fun Out of
Meeting as Coaches
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PRESS.
CHICAGO, Sept. %. - They're
painting lot of gloom around
Coaches Frank Leahy of Notre
Dame and Harry Stuhldreher of
Wisconsin, whose football teams
meet this week in one of the Mid
vests topnotch games.
Both being former Notre Dame
gridders, one might lean to the per-
suasion there would be light in their
eyes and deviltry in their hearts
as they anticipate Saturdays con-
test.
But observers report Leahy glum
and pessimistic; Stuhldreher as dis
couraged.
Wisconsin Impresses Leahy.
Both watched Stuhldreher's Wis
consin team defeat Camp Grants
soldiers, TO last week. Leahy came
away impressed by the Badgers de-
fense. Stuhldreher commented: IF
we play like that against Notre
Dame, we'll lose, 60-0.'
Both are perturbed by a series
of injuries that have weakened their
squads and especially their ace ball
carriers-Pat Harder of Wisconsin
and Dippy Evans of Notre Dame.
Stuhldreher said, I'VE won't have
Bud Seelinger in the backfeld be-
cause of an injury to his hip and
his loss will hurt, especially on top
of Frank GRANTEES ineligibility.
Harder will play Saturday, I sup
pose, but he has been on the shelf
so long now he will have to get into
condition all over again"
Stars Doubtful to Play.
Leahy expressed much the same
concern about Evans and Creighton
Miller, alternate right half, who
have participated in few contact
drills since practice began. Yes
terday Leahy lost Left End Jack
lilly, who dislocated a shoulder.
Contributing to Leahy's pessimism
might have been the touch of flu he
suffered earlier in the week. Then,
too, he might have dug into past
Notre Dame Wisconsin records,
from which stem an analogous and
discomforting situation.
In 1908, Notre Dame had an un-
defeated team although it was tied
once. The following year Wisconsin
handed the Irish their worst defeat
in history, $50. It's not hard to
recall that Notre Dame was un-
beaten although tied once last year
Maybe Leahy is wondering if his
tory will repeat.
