RAIN DROPS HOPES
 FOR BIG SKI TIME

Rains washing Juneau's streets clear of yesterdays snowfall have also washed out the high hopes of local skiers for a big weekend of slope slipping With naught but more rain in the offing, but little ac- tivity in the skiing line is looked for, however, Juneau Ski Club officials declared that there should be skiable snow above the Upper Cabin for those hardy enough to overcome the wearying trail conditions to get there
 It is pointed out to novices at the mountain sliding art that the type of heavy snow to. be expected can be very hazardous to those unable to swing their turns under full control

ROOSEVELT NAUCURATED FOURTH TERM
Soviet Attacks Called
 DiyersionarY 1atiits
 To Open Poland Route
By WILLIAM FRYE Associated Press War Correspondent


 LONDON, Jan. 20.--The possibil- ity that Russia's astounding ad- vances may crush Germany in a matter of weeks fills military circles in London with suppressed excite ment.
 No responsible military figure will predict the outcome, but informed persons make no secret of their inn pressions that the Red Army used diversionary attacks on scale hitherto undreamed of to catch the Germans off balance in Central Poland and they may have pierced the only Nazi line of Qualifications on the eastern front.
 As seen here. the Red Army kept important looking attacks jabbing the enemy left at isolated Latvia and cannily exploited the fanatical German fervor over holy soil of the Fatherland' with other assault threats at East Prussia.
 They surged also into Hungary while all the time they were massing their real strength for the big blow in a single area for the dash through Poland at the heart of Ger many.
 Observers point out the absence, as far as can be ascertained, of any system of Qualifications in eastern Germany comparable to the Sieg- fried line The enemy is believed to have some extensive field works west and back of the lower Vistula and some kind of pill-box system and other notifications in the gap be- tween the Vistula and the Warta Rivers If this is the case, the Red Army has already pierced this line,
 Observers lay the apparent soft ness of the German defense to the Nazi underestimation of the Red strength and failure to spot where the real power drive would be aimed.

Old Silver King
Mine Near Superior
Being Drilled

A drilling program is being start
ed at the famous old Silver King
mine near Superior, Arizona, by
William a. Nelson, consulting eng
ineer of Washington, D. c., Frank
Parker, also of Washington, and
the firm of Sprague and HenwoOd
Inc, Scranton, Pennsylvania The
drilling, which will be done by
Sprague and Henwood, will be-
carried on below the S00-foot level,
the depth to which the mine pre-
viously had been worked
The present operators acquired
the Silver King recently under bond
and lease from the owner, Bat
Gays. Nelson and James A. Ross,
president of Sprague and Henwood,
both are at the mine spotting the
drill holes.
The history of the property dates
back as far as 1873. At that time,
in campaign to stop Apache raids
in the district. General George
'Stoneman, commander Of the mill
tary department of the Territory
of Arizona established a camp a
bout two miles north Of what is
now the city of Superior One Of
his soldiers named Sullivan was the
first to discover the silver ore. but
it is presumed that he was killed
by the Apaches before being able
to develop the prospect.
The actual initial location of the
Silver King was made in March OF
1875, following the second discov-
cry of the property by Charles G.
Mason, Benjamin w. Reagan. Will
