Course Training

A beer party would seem to have
little relation to the highly concen-
trated instruction in the science
and methods of sanitation now be-
ing studied by the class in Restau-

Yesterday afternoon, and it was
strictly business-though pleasant
ly SO.
Demonstrating the proper method
of washing food and drink recep-
tacles and disproving the charge
that chlorination of the utensils
leaves an unpleasant taste, was the
purpose of the demonstration con-
Quoted by sanitary engineer Rich
ard Green and public health engin-
eer John Hall.
Glasses were thoroughly washed
in soapy water, rinsed in clear hot
water and then dipped in the prop
err chlorinated solution, following
which the men were served glasses
of beer in them.
Dish Washing
Demonstrated by an additional
test was the fact that dishes not
entirely freed from food particles
before submersion in the chlorine
solution are not sterilized properly
since the organic matter absorbs
the chlorine and leaves none in
the solution.
The highly convincing film Lets
Eat Out" was again shown this
morning to the class who demon
strated their increased awareness
of food handling methods by the
comments turned in. A brief re-
view of the entire course was made
by Mr.. Hall and Mr.. Green, and
laboratory demonstrations were
viewed under the explanatory di-
rection of Fora Dragich, director
During the afternoon the sani-
tarians visited a dairy, a pasteuriz-
ing plant and an ice cream factory,
gauging the methods of sanitation
employed by the standards demon
strated in class work.
Saturday sessions will involve
written examinations and general
discussion, following which written
answers will be reviewed and re-
turned with comments to the men.

new NAMES
COMING UP
FOR AL(AN
Laskadian, 'CandIdskd,
'Stimson' Among Sug-
gestions for Road

WASHINGTON, March 19.-The
name Alcan for the new Alaska
Canada Highway which to Alaska
Delegate Anthony J. Dimond sounds
like "ashcan," should go just there,
he said today After opening many
letters suggesting other names.
Writers from Canada to the
Texas coast have been sending Di-
mond and Rep. Warren c. Magnu-
son ideas regarding what would
constitute a more fitting name for
the road.
Two policemen in Jamestown,
North Dakota, suggested "Laska-
dian" Wrote Magnuson, we tried
it on a number of people, telling
them the name had been changed
| to Laskadian and they were
very pleased with the new choice.
A sourdough who lived in Alaska
during the gold rush days wrote
Dimond that the name "Alcan
sticks in your throat, is not eupho-
NOUS, and is an abomination to
those who love the North"
He suggested that the road be
called "A-C," the classic name in
the north which stands for the
Alaska Commercial Company, the
pioneer trading company which
bought out the Russian trading
company.
Names Pour In
Continuing to pour in, names
submitted include that of a writer
who suggested "Stimson Highway
in honor of the Secretary of War.
From Alberta, Canada, came the
suggestion Good Neighbor High
way" while another suggested
"Canalaska, and added, "Alaskans
get the best of it because they get
the last of the word"
Doubts of how the Canadians
felt about it were answered in a
letter Dimond received from George
Black, member of the Canadian
Parliament from the Yukon, who
said that Canadians did not OBJ
ject to having the highway called
the Alaska Highway Said Blacks
letter further, Canadians are not
anxious to have the name Canada
in any way included in the name
of the highway. 1t is true that 5I6
of the road is through Canada but
that is no reason why is shouldn't
be called the Alaska Highway
There is no jealousy OF illwill on
the part of the Canadians nor does
1T matter what the highway to Al
aska should be called" Dimond and
Magnuson said they have not yet
reached a decision about REMAIN
ing the highway.

Lions Again to Play
At Briggs Stadium
BY LEWIS II. WALTER

There's a black outlook for col
lege football, but the National
Football League and the Detroit
Lions in particular. see hope
ahead for next fall, Coach Charles
+. Dorais said Saturday.
Detroit's professional football
club is counting on u veterans
for next season. has plans II
round up the rest Of its squad
and has already arranged to play
all its games in Briggs Stadium
Dorais revealed.
"We're not the only ones who
figure we can put a team In the
field" said the Lions new
coach. Eve talked with several
other owners in Chicago and
they feel the same way.
THE one thing that has inn
pressed me In my first few
weeks on the job is the attitude
of the clubs, the determination
TO keep the league going and
the spOrtsnfanship Of the own
ers, especially Fred Mandel, the
one I'm closest TO.
May Lose Money
"Mandel knows he r.iay lose
money again but he's ready 10
take the rap to give Detroit as
good a football team as possible
this fall-when the Lions may
be the only weekend attraction
In big time football around these
parts-due to the college sit
uation."
Dorais doesn't see how college
football can operate on anything
like the old basis this fan. -
"Not with youngsters under
draft age, the physically unfit
and a few upperclass chemists
and engineers, who seldom have
time for football anyway, as the
only material"
The Lions expect. most of theil
players will hold defense jobs ir
Detroit and will offer to obtair
jobs for players they are seeking
As a result of their work Dorais
takes it for granted they won't
have the usual time for practice
But he says as long as the players
are In condition il won't matter
quite so much.
MANY q good college player
has been just a game player.
Remember Ernie Wick of Michi-
gan was one who made All
America with few appearances
on the practice field"
Back at Stadium
Despite the catch-as-ean ap-
proach to next seasons problems,
Dorais said the Lions manage
ment has shown no inclination to
move TO smaller quarters or do
things in a smaller way. Mandel,
he said. renewed the Lions con-
tract for Briggs Stadium on a
recent visit.
"Of course, IL Is n conditional
one-the league must operate"
said Dorais.
Dorais' material for next year
must come from the ranks of
players, men with de-
pendents. The dozen Lions whom
he expects to form the nucleus of
his squad are mostly backs and
ends. so he is now looking for
linemen. Some of them may come
from the ranks of college assistant
coaches now out of employment.
Lloyd Cardwell. veteran half
back. who is now ranching in Ne
DraSka, tops the Lions list. Card
