NATIVE CHIEF TO
 BE BURIED BESIDE
 OTHERS IN H00NAH

Peter Fawcett, highly respected resident of Hoonah, who died at the Government Hospital in Juneau, on August 16, was born in Tenakee in 1875.
 : MT. Fawcett had made Hoonah his home almost his entire life, seldom leaving that locality. For years he occupied the position of Chief of the Hoonah Natives, and was the last of long line of Chiefs. When the town of Hoonah became modern
 ized and elected Mayor and City Council, he surrendered all his civic authority to that body
 Tho war grieved him very much and though he has been in ill health for several years, his fondest hope was that he might live to see
 cur enemies defeated. Death claim ed him on the day that the surren-
 der of Japan was officially amour
 ccd. When he was informed of this
 good news. he fell peacefully asleep. The remains will be taken to
 Hoonah for burial beside other for
 mer Chiefs.
 ] Surviving him are his wife, Mary
 Fawcett, one daughter, Mrs. Annie
 Knudson, of Excursion Inlet, one
 son, Johnnie Fawcett, of Hoonah, a
 niece, Mrs. Jessie Wilson of Juneau ! and many distant relatives.

TRAINING COURSE
 FOR GIRL < SCOUT
 WORKERS PLANNED

A complete report on Girl Scout camp activities for the l945 camp ing season is to be given by Mrs. Edwin Johnson, Camp Chairman, at the Girl Scout Council meeting to be held Monday afternoon, at 2 o'clock in the penthouse of the A.E. L. and P. building.
 In addition to Mrs Johnson's re- port, there are several other impor- tant matters to be discussed, accord- ing to Scout Commissioner Mrs Scott Murphy, who urges all Council members to attend.
 Mrs. Albert Crittenden, Field Representative for the National Girl Sccut Council, who was in Juneau briefly short time ago, will return to Juneau the second week in Sep tember, at which time, Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 10 and Il, she will give an intensive two-day course of training for Leaders, Assistant Lead-' CTS, Council and Council Commit tee members, and Troop Committee !
 members,
 An invitation to all women of the Gastineau Channel area who are in- terested in Girl Scouting to take this course of training has been ex- tended by the Council, through Mrs. Murphy. Mothers of Girl Scouts are particularly asked to take this oppor- tunity of learning more of Scouting, and what it means.
 This is the first time this training course for Girl Scout Council mem- bcrs and Leaders has been made available in Alaska, and it is hoped ItlM as many women as possible will make the most of this opportunity Even though it may not be possible fer each one taking the course to take an active part in the Scouting program immediately after taking the course, the Council believes it would be very desirable to have trained workers available who could be call ed upon at a later date, or perhaps to fill in for short time when needed.
 l Arrangements for taking the
 training course may be made by calling Mrs. Murphy, 676, Mrs. Hugh
 Wade, Black 200, or Mrs. w. J. Manthey, Black 309. Mrs. Murphy and Mrs. Wade may be called any
 time during the day, while Mrs. Manthey should be called in the
 evening, after o'clock.

Peer Of High c.
School Orators

For the second consecutive year.,
Gerald Underwood has been adjudg-
ed peer of local high school orators.
At an assembly held yesterday in
commemoration of Washington'S
Birthday, eleven contestants pre-
sented orations on the subject, "The
Constitution; A Barrier Against
Tyranny" and fittingly celebrated
the birthday of The Father of Our
Country. Judges for the contest
were Judge Gordon Farley, Mrs. E.
S. Edmonson, and Attorney Ruffo
ESpinosa. Winners of second and
third places we're Ada Grace Puchi,
and Harry O'Hagin.
Speakers for this annual event
we're under the supervision of Mrs.
Virginia Smith, and it was with
pride that Mrs. Smith presented IL
oontestantS-many of them making
public appearances for the first
time. In addition to the three pre-
-'iously mentioned. orations were
given by Gregor Balough, David
Stewart, Fred Ellis, Bobby Hatha-
way, Arnulfo Verdugo, Karl Peter
son, Helen Hubert, Donna Spencer.
The talks gave evidence of much
serious study on current conditions
and problems of our country, and a
determination that the heritage
guaranteed to our people will be.
cherished and developed by youth
growing into full responsibilities
and rights of citizenship.
Gerald will take part in the district
contest with winners of Santa Cruz
and Cochise County High School
contests, and, if successful, will
compete at later date at the state
finals in Phoenix. Last year he was
district winner, and this year goes
to that meeting with the best wish
eS for success from all Nogalians.
