programs to the States, which
would receive grants-in-aid Mr..
Brunots plan would either call for
a congressional appropriation for
child care or would probably shift
administration o. Lanham Act funds
from FWA to the Children's Bureau
and Office of Education.
In the past year the ODHWS has
been making grants to States for
hiring supervisory child-care per-
sonnet. So far 80 States have OBJ
tanned these funds, which are di-
vided nationally between the Chill
drens Bureau and the Office of
Education. The District has ap-
piled for these supervisory funds
from the two Federal agencies
though it has not yet asked for
Lanham Act funds.
Mr.. Brunot said that the ODHWs
day-care plan is now before Paul V
McNutt, manpower commissioner
for approval.

proval in the next few months, so

SCORES SATURDAY.
Waacs Take Title, 1926
Juneau High Sunk, 1927

The Waacs, a story book team
that finished a poor fifth in the
regular season, are the champions
of the Gastineau Channel Basket
ball League. A record crowd
watched the serious team with a
silly name turn in the best per-
Torrance of the. year to edge the
Moose out by two small points.
Members of the Waacs will get
trophies from the League in the
form of silver basketball fobs, to
be awarded at later date.
The game was absolutely neck
and neck all the way. The score
was knotted SO many times that
neither team had safe edge at
any time. The contest was settled
with the score tied at 25-all, when
Krause, who scored eight points
during the evening, dumped in his
fourth field goal to send the Waacs
ahead, 27-25. A free throw that
Cereni tossed in few seconds later
wasn't needed, it proved. McClel-
Ian of the Moose gave the losers
their other point on a free throw
with 35 seconds to go. Eddie Mel
son tried long one just before
the game ended.
Cereni Hot
Cereni played a bang-up game
at guard for the winners, running
up II points, making four free
throws count. Norris, captain OF
the Waacs, turned m one OF his
best performances. He was the lone
player who had only one personal
foul chalked up against him in a
game that was otherwise very much
on the rough side.
Dishler of the victors went out
on fouls as did Vacura and Powers
of the Moose. McDaniels was high
for the losers with 7 points.
In the opener, a twice-defeated
Malamute team ran away from Ju-
neau High in the last period,
stretching a 23-17 lead into a 23-
II lead into a 1927 victory. Lunde-
berg snapped out of his slump and
ran up Is points, the highest string
Of the tournament. Mohn collected
IL points which also helped things
Johnny Bavard got 8 and Pas
guam got 10 for the High School
which did all right for the first
three periods and part of the last
but successive baskets by Lundeberg
and Mohn carried off the game.
The victory gave the Malamutes
third place. The Moose got second
place.

Is Skiers
Hit Trail il
On Sunday
Best Trip Of Year Reported
Experienced Snow
Conditions Good

The best all-around ski trip OF
the year was experienced yesterday
as an estimated rs skierS trekked tc
the Upper Ski Bowl and the ridges
beyond. The scenery from the tor
of Douglas Island was reported as
magnificent and it was possible to
see for many miles in every di-
rection.
Corn or spring snow on a crust
was the prevailing condition, al
though frozen areas in the shadows
of the mountains did not thaW
during the day, and skiers were
forced to ski carefully. 1t was
springlike and balmy on top of the
upper ridge and many people
peeled off their shirts.
Fully one half of those making
the trip yesterday were novice skiers
at the beginning of the year, and
for many it was the first trip into
the deep snow country.
The ski trail was previously re-
ported as icy, thawed out suffici-
emily throughout the day to pro-
vide an excellent run down as far
as the ditch. The trail from the
first meadow to the road was
closed to skiing yesterday, however
as it is badly rutted.
Thirty-five skierS met for break
fast at Percy's Cafe yesterday
morning, and similar gathering
is planned for next week.
