Crack Field Of Seven
In Jumping Contest
Al Laurel Today

LAUREL, Nd. Oct. 17-Seven of
the finest steeplechasers In train
ing are slated to go postward this
afternoon in the 32d renewal of
the $500 Chevy Chase 21a mile
test.
In the field is Floating Isle, owned
by Thomas T. Mott of Washington,
and trained by Judy johnson.
Floating Isle is top weight in the
field with Isl pounds, and If well
handled, stands a royal chance of
winning the most coveted jumping
event run here yearly.
Opposing Floating Isle are such
good ones as Mercator, winner of
the Grand National in New York; (;
Royal Archer, Corrigan, Raylywyn,
Shotlo and Kittiwake. 1t should be
a race any cross-country enthusiast
would be glad to travel miles to
witness.
Fqeetest, owned and trained by
Norman (Junie) Corbin of Wash
ington, seeks her ninth consecutive
victory when she battles it out in the
$1,000 Pnar Lap 34-mile sprint. If
Fleetest wins today, no one can de-
ny that she is the best f1lly sprinter
to show in Maryland this year. The
reason for not proclaiming Fleetest
the champion sprinter should she win
today is that she hasn't met or con-
quered Brookfleld, which twice has
won here in sensational time.
A head decision gave w. L.
Branns Manadru a victory yester-
day in the feature attraction Nosed
out was P. A. B. Widener's Concord
ian, while Statesman, from the
stable of K. A. O'Conner, was third.
A field of 10 went to the post in
the mile and 70-yard contest. The
winners time was 1:44 AS, return
ing $3.50 to Manadru hackers.

chase with Mrs. j. Surgeons Silver
Run winning easily in 4:01 to pay
$370. Mrs. M. Seidts Forest Ranger
and Edgar Horns Bar Ship took the

New Act In Effect Soon

Nearly every employer of one | a more persons now comes with | n the scope of the Unemploy- ment Compensation Act, accord ing to Harry B DeLand, field
 auditor and adviser, who arrived in Kodiak Sunday from Juneau via Anchorage.
 The new law enacted at the last territorial legislature goes into effect on July l this year and means that the first filing, which is quarterly, will be made for the September quarter, due before Oct 3l, DeLand said.
 Agood general rule for the employer to follow is to file this return if he is filing Social Security returns, as the same exceptions prevail.
 The tax to be paid is 2.7 per cent of the payroll, but It is not deductible from the payroll.
 Prior to the new law only em- poyers of 8 or more were re- qlired to pay the tax.
 A form will be sent to every kpown employer sometime in June and this must be filled out and returned so a determination of liability can be made. Any smployer who does not receive this form and who hires any person for any period of time should contact the Juneau office.
 All information regarding the payment of the tax and liability should be obtained from the Alaska Unemployment Compen- saton Commission at Juneau, or from MT. DeLand, who is stay mg at the Sunbeam hotel. En- ployees seeking information on their benefits from unemploy- ment insurance should see Miss Nan Holt, at the local U. S.. Employment office.
 DeLand is also checking on delinquencies of employers of 8i or more who were not properly advised as to their liability under the previous law.

Lot Applications Cause Many Procedure Queries

Land owners in Kodiak were hocking for applications for deeds thIs week as required un- der the town site approval and granting of lots, and the final publication of the notice of such step appears in this issue, which means that l20 days from today every land owner must have made such application to pre- vent his land being sold later at public auction.
 All applications made before May will be considered as having been made at the same time, but after May 1 all applications will be acted upon by the town site trustee in the order of their fling.
 Already discrepancies in own ership claims are appearing. Cases have arisen where a property owner discovers some- one else has been paying his taxes and investigation of quit clam deeds has shown others where property overlays or boundary lines are differently described.
 Some persons living between the old city limits boundary near the Sam Sears home, and the new extended limits on Mission road have tried to file applica- tions. That additional territory was surveyed at a later date, and only that land in the first survey is now affected. However, the plat of that district was ap' proved as Of February, 1922. according to the best informa- tion obtainable here, and will be processed in a similar fashion, with granting of deeds, at a later date. This does not apply to patented land in the area, just as present applications do not apply to patented land in the townsite proper.
 Much discussion has arisen over the issuance of deeds to na- tives and non-restricted deeds to non-natives. The law govern ing this is an act of Congress, dated May 25, 1926, which was drawn specifically to protect natives by providing for the

Penny Drive To Aid Children

Once again the people of Kod- iak are being called upon to join in the annual Penny Drive of the Children's Orthopedic Hospital, Seattle, a drive being conducted throughout Alaska for the insti- tuition which, during 1914, hao A children from Alaska among it's patients.
 Of these 3 were from Kodiak and the total days respectively for each at the hospital were 652, 253, and 274. Larsen's Bay and Karluk were also represented a. mong the 1914 patients
 Fifteen new Alaska patien s were admitted during the year, and all are given general medical care, X-rays, laboratory work, dental examinations and treat ments as indicated, plus school work and occupational therapy if patienis are a suitable age.
 Tubercular joints, of which there are many, require frame and traction treatment, casts, repeated X-rays, surgery and braces. Other cases of burns and congenital defects require special care and in many cases, plastic surgery.
 Much of this work is earned on through the funds derived from the Penny Drive. This year in Kodiak, Mrs. Marian Blinn, drive chairman, announced, the Campfire Girls have distributed to as many homes as possible small envelopes in which the people may place their ccntribu- ton. Beginning this Monday the girls will go to these homes again to collect the contributions In addition, Mrs. Blinn an- nounced, throughout the month of May Penny Drive jars will be placed in local business houses for additional donation
