1 taining to the establishment of To- cal Board of Health in areas other than incorporated towns was dis cussed at great length and it was decided the existing law was excel lent to meet the needs Of these areas. The Board recommended the existing law be well publicized to aid communities in health protec- ton. The Board decided that the health laws and regulations and such other material as the Commis- sioner thinks opportune be printed for distribution because many people do not realize their contents.
 Mrs. Elvira T. Maurstad of Haines. representing the Hospital Associa- ticn of Haines, presented the plan of that Association. revealing that the Haines community was now building small community hospital to be called Chilkat Valley Hospital, She appealed for assistance in obtain ing equipment that might become available through the efforts of the Board of Health from surpluses arising because of the termination of the war. Mrs. Maurstad urged the Board give every assistance possible to interest a physician to locate in Haines. It was felt that with the contemplated highway develop ment an increased population of the Chilkat Valley could be expected.
 The Board accepted the offer of the American Red Cross to release to the Territorial Department of Health surplus supplies and equip ment sent to Alaska centers of pop ula4ion for the establishment of emergency hospitals. It directed the Commissioner to carry out all necessary negotiations and dispose of them as he sees fit to non-profit organizations such as community owned hospitals, orphanages, chil- dren's homes, schools and the Alaska Native Service.
 The Commissioner was authorized to make every effort to secure from the Army, Red Cross, Office of Civ ilian Defense and other government agencies all surplus and other available medical and hospital sup plies and any other equipment to further the health program in Alas ka and distribute them as he sees fit to non-profit groups.
 The Board went on record as sup porting the program and co-opera- tive plan of the Alaska Tuberculosis Association and offered it's whole hearted support and assistance in the forthcoming annual seal sale.
 In relation to the Seward Army Hospital, for which the last Legis- lature appropriated S14,500 for the purchase of it's equipment, the Board authorized the Commissioner to im- mediately begin negotiations, with various interested organizations and agencies for possible lease or sale of hospital facilities to operate it as a Tuberculosis Sanatorium, so that it would not become a burden on the Territory. The Commissioner re- ported several groups already had expressed an interest in taking over the hospital and it was anticipated deal would be made shortly with no cost to the Territory It was

Davis Cup Change
Asked by Aussies
Offer Way TO Cut
Down Long Trials

Australia, which has the Davis
Cup locked up in a vault down
under" has a sensible suggestion
to make regarding cup challenge
rounds but it probably won't be
accepted because it is just that
sensible.
The auSSies will urge that
weaker nations, especially those
near each other geographically,
should play off before meeting
stronger nations.
Sir Norman BrookeS points out
that in the past Anzac teams have
had to travel all over the world
before reaching the challenge
round Tennis traditions prob
ably will ruin the suggestion.
Brookes also opposes the Sug-
gestion that Australian repTesen-
tation on the International Lawn
Tennis Federation be reduced be-
cause Australia is one of the
smaller nations. He contends that
Australia has more players per
head of population than any other
nation.
