RODENT CONTROL
 SURVEY WILL BE
 COMPLETED SOON

The Rodent control survey being conducted in Juneau to determine the evidence and causes of rat in- festation is expected to be com pleted early next week, according to an announcement by Frank A. Metcalf, Chairman of the Juneau Rodent Control Program.
 We are very pleased with the response of the people of Juneau to this work" MT. Metcalf stated. Many residents have given liber- ally of their time in an effort to obtain the information necessary to control a pest which causes ill., ness and great destruction of property AS soon as all survey re- ports are in, the information will be compiled and presented, along with the necessary recommenda- tions, to the City Council at their meeting on May 3.
 The Clean-Up Campaign sponsor ed by the city, which will be held from April 27 to May offers an excellent opportunity to get rid of rubbish and other discarded ma- terias," MT. Metcalf said. Storage Of this junk in basements, attics, and yards provides rats with hid ing and breeding places. This, plus unsatisfactory garbage storage and disposal, attracts many of these pests"
 The Rodent Control Survey is part of a long-range program be- ing carried on by the residents of Juneau working in cooperation with their municipal government, local and territorial health agencies and civic organizations to bring about improvement in conditions which lend themselves to an increased rat population.

Newsy Nofes From Skagway


 SKAGWAY, Alaska, Sept IA Special Correspondence) - Prank Bailey. 19-year-old native youth who was recently arrested and tried on charges of breaking and enter ing and robbing several places in town, in company with three youths from the Mission Orphan age, has again run away from the tuberculosis sanatorium, where he has teen a patient for some weeks. This time he was clad only in pajamas, bathrobe and house slip pers and the weather has been cold and raining Friday night he broke into the Maxi home and stole a quantity of food
 Saturday Boy Scouts and several adults started out to hunt him down. They found him on the mountain side near Lower Lake, but he managed to outrun his pur- suers. They found his cache of food. He had also managed to steal clothing and was protected from the weather.
 In the trouble last month he was the ringleader for three small CT lads, one only nine years old One of the boys was bound over to the grand jury as a second of fender and the other turned over to the Welfare Department and talk en to Juneau. The small one was turned back to the Mission.
 Two of Skagway's popular young people, Phyllis Stephenson and Frank J. Richmond, Jr, were uni ted in marriage Thursday after noon in a private ceremony at the home of the Rev Edgar Gallant, who performed the wedding.
 After the 4 o'clock nuptials the young couple and their attendants, the brides mother, Mrs. Ted Rey- holds, and MT Reynolds, returned to the Reynolds home where a re- ception was held from 4.30 until o'clock, with Mrs. Harry Church serving.
 After the bride and groom were toasted in champagne by the many friends present, hors d'ouevr- es, coffee and cake were served. Numerous bouquets of flowers from local gardens formed a colorful setting for the beautiful three tiered wedding cake which was cut by the bride.
 For the ceremony the bride was lovely in a light blue dressmaker suit and flower trimmed hat. Her beautiful corsage was in pastel shades. Mrs. Reynolds wore a suit and also had lovely corsage.
 MT. and Mrs. Richmond, Jr., left on the Louise at o'clock for a weeks honeymoon in Juneau and will be at home to their friends in one of the Coldin apartments af- ter September 23.
 The taxi which took the wedding party to the boat was well decor ated with tin cans and a large just married sign. About 40 friends were gathered at the dock to bid them bon voyage. The youngsters were also on their toes and gave the neWlyWeds a rousing welcome upon their return from the wedding ceremony.
 Mrs. Richmond has been in Skag- way for two or three years and the. groom came here last fall after being discharged from the Marines after three years in the South Pacific. His parents, Major and
