 John Clerk, once-well-known figure in Edinburgh, had been dip ping rather deeply into the convi- vial bowl in a Queen Street estab- lishment, and had fingered until early in the morning.
 Emerging upon the street, he lost his way. Seeing someone coming toward him, he stopped the pedes- trian with the question:: Do ye ken where John Clerk bides?"
 ''I'm thinking" was the reply ''ye are MT. John Clerk yourself" Aye, aye!" answered he, T ken that vary weel, my man; ken I'm John Clerk, but. mon, oh, mon, l dinna ken where I live"

He asked that this paper be sponsored by all the member unions through a subscription list from each Lodge so that the paper could be sent out as second class matter to the home of every Union man.

HAGG FADES IN MILE TEST,

Swedish Runner Puts Up Game Race Companion
 Takes Hurdle Ma!(h

NEW YORK, March 5.-Gundar Hagg finished last in the Louis Zamperini Mile at the ICAAAA In- dcor Track Games here, but he was the only disappointed person in Madison Square Garden after Sat- urday nights race.
 For seven laps the Swede, less than 50 hours off a storm tossed freighter that took g days to cross the ocean, was in command but on the eighth journey around the plank saucer his spark went out faster than a cabaret candle at midnight. By the time the five runners had reached the three quarter mark, Hagg had begun to tire and from there on the grind was a four-man battle, with Jim, Raf- ferty, unbeataen this season, inch ing in ahead of Forest Evan, in '4:16.4 Hagg was clocked in at 4:31. While Hagg pleased everyone but himself with his game effort, his 'traveling companion, Haakon Lid- man, captured a. 60-yard hurdles ex- hibiticn and was third in the 50- yard event, after leading over the first two barriers.

One Skier Falls and Breaks Leg-Brought fo Town

Undaunted by driving wet snow and wind, more than 60 skiers Ibraved the Douglas ski trail Sun day and enjoyed excellent skiing all day, according to members of the Juneau Ski Club.
 Snow conditions at the second meadow and top cabin were re- ported excellent. There was a hard crust underneath the newly-fallen snow. Seven people stayed over night Saturday. and several on Friday. One accident marred the days sport. Edwin Heisel, son of MT and Mrs. w. B. Heisel. making a run down a steep slope, fell and frac- tured leg. The Juneau Ski Pa 'trol took immediate care of the patient, bringing him down the trail on a toboggan after admins tering first aid. He was taken to St Ann's Hospital.

Bottles

Whiskey is aged in barrels, but is sold in bottles. While it is in the barrel things are happening to whiskey-it changes. Practically colorless when it goes into the wood" it soon takes on an amber hue from the charred oak slaves and as time goes on this color deepens to reddish brown. It also absorbs certain flavor ele- ments from the wood. Whiskey, after it is put into the barrel, con- tinues to improve over period of years, and the number of years, before it reaches it's peak, varies. Sometimes it takes six or seven years, or longer. It depends upon the type of whiskey, warehousing conditions, and the characteristics of the barrel.
 When put in the bottle, unlike wine, which may continue to im- prove, whiskey may be adversely affected by the incorrect type of glass. Now, this may be news to you.
 The art of bottle-making goes way back to antiquity, and many are surprised to learn that in the United States the first glass factory was built in Virginia in 1908. But, in spite of the fact that the making of glass and bottles began some thousands of years ago, it has only been during the past few years that the effect of various liquids on their glass containers has been seriously studied. It is now generally known that certain glass has peculiar action on some liquids, and these liquids likewise have an effect on the glass.
 We'll, based on scientific study, experimentation and their result ant findings, the distiller today, in his laboratories, has worked out very careful specifications and sampling tests to which all bottles are subjected before they are ac- cepted for whiskey, gin, etc.
 In one of our other articles we said, "Men in white have discov- cred more about whiskey during the past few years; it's control dur ing the fermentation and distilla- tion processes; its aging in the wood and it's bottling, than in the many hundreds of years preceding" May we say that again?

Cougars and Webfooters Knotted for Northern
 Division BIB Title

NEW YORK, March 5.-With the exception of few scattered games, and the NCAA and Madison Square Garden tournaments, the l945 bas- ketball season is over.
 Army's West Point Cadets featur- cd the last outstanding Saturday of the season by beating Navy, 50 to 48. at Annapolis, to win the mythical Eastern Championship. The Cadets were beaten only by Pennsylvania in the seasons major upset. They finished with Is victories in IS games, to run their record to 30 victories in their last 31 starts.
 The Cadets thus joined Iowa, Pennsylvania, U.C.L.A., Washington State, Oregon, Iowa State, Utah. Rice, North Carolina, Kentucky, American University, New Mexico, Akron, and the Oklahoma Aggies, as winners of various section titles.
 In one of the most torrid races in the history of the Pacific Coast Con- ference, the Northern Division struggle ended in first-place tie between Washington State and Ore gon. The Cougars beat Idaho, 49- 30, while Oregon smacked Oregon State, 47-38, over the week end. Pre- viously, Washington State, Oregon and Oregon State had been triple tied. Washington State and Oregon will probably meet this week in a best t-two-out- three games playoff for the title and the right to compete in the Western NCAA eliminations at Kansas City.
