In formal statement, Mr..

Our committee realizes the diff

While some progress has been
accomplished in connection with the

SCORES LAST NIGHT Wages Edge Out Sigacs, S4-93 Moose Same Over Officers. 2826

Two of the finest exhibitions of basketball were played on the Ju- neau High School gym last night before three women and a half dozen men as spectators, includ- ing the officials. Either the Juneau fans don't like basketball, or they're spending all their money on War Bonds.
 In the first racy contest, t h e Wages just barely defeated the Sigacs by one point in game that wasn't decided until the last whistle. Linhart cut loose with a close one just as the game ended, and if it had swished, the Sigacs would have walked off with the victory.
 Norris played nice game for the winners, but the S'gacs held the lank Waac down to 12 points, most of which he collected in the early minutes of the game. Kraus also pulled some nice shots for the Wages, getting right points.
 Krulikowski hit the hoop consis- tently for the Sigacs in the first game in many an evening, run ming up 10 points. The edge went to the Wages on foul shots.
 The second game was a little faster and just as good. The Moose outfit worked smoothly together and set a pace little too speedy for the Officers, who, as usual, used plenty of men, substituting often.
 Tommy Powers paced the Moose with eight points. Hickey and Blurl each rang up six markers It was a low scoring match, but fast all the way. The Officers slipped a little in the final period getting only three points as the leather kept slipping off the rim. Rosnov was high man for the Officers with seven. Frechling, who usually does well, was little off Ia t night, getting only two field goa4s for the losers as Hickey kept 2 close check on the lanky center.
 The next games will be played Friday in Juneau with Juneau High School vs. the Beavers and the Moose vs. the St. Louis Blues.
 Vacura and Lundeberg arc sched- uled to referee.

ancestry for more than brief Pc
riods unless they are charged with
being disloyal or subversive.
Myer. for the second consecutive

Japanese relocation camps.

THE detention of citizens of the

charges of disloyalty or subversive-

made, for longer than the minimum
period necessary to screen the loval

the necessary guidance for reloca-

said.
He said that neither Congress nor
President Roosevelt had given the

such confinement would be very
