BroilIe device used by Walter
TO take notes in his classes.
A LITTLE MORE than a
n year ago Walter john
son, now %, graduated from
the Indiana School for Blind
at Indianapolis where he set
an enviable l0-year record.
He enrolled at St. Joseph's
College, Rensselaer,, Ind. AL
though he has been congeni-
tally blind from birth, and he
had to compete scholastically
with more than 200 college
freshmen, Walters frst-year
record at st. Joseph's was
amazing. He not only passed
every subject, he hung up a
fancy index of 2.31, "good to
superior" By "boning up"
on Spanish during the second
half of the year, Walter
hoisted his average to ESQ,
putting him among the top
10 in his class of freshmen.

Travellers are sWarming over the Alaska Highway and setting a straight compass course for the Anchorage branch of the District Land Office in search of free land, according to a land office announcement of last week. Fully half of those who come are interested in settlement on the Kenai Penisula.
 Studies of settlement possi- bilities there and land classifi- cation surveys are still continu- ing in that area, according to Lowell M. Puckett, regional ad- ministrator. Information soon is to be made public concerning the results of these studies.
 However, to meet the need until regular bulletin can be prepared for publication, MT. Puckett has outlined a condensed version of information which may be of help to the prospective settlers. ''The full story will be told in our complete report" he said. But meanwhile we want to help those who already have made up their minds to farm on the Kenai. It is with that thought in mind that we have compiled this information":
 The western loWland of the Kenai Peninsula is considered to be the better agricultural land. Most of this is still open to set

Castner Gets June, July
 Army Contract

L. V. Castner, marketing agent for Valley Producers, Inc, last week announced that the army produce contract for the months of June and July has been awarded to the Producers. Rhu- barb and radishes were first on the Army's want list under the new contract.
 The initial shipment of this contract, 2,350 pounds of rhu- barb, was sent to MT. Castner from Palmer last Friday. It also represented the first shipment sent to market by members of the Valley Producers, Inc, aside from several small lot shipments of green onions. Ten Valley farmers supplied the rhubarb needed to fill the contract.
 Shipment of radishes to fill contract orders is expected to begin within a week, according to Glen Woods, head of the farm CTS organization.
 MT. Woods said that a receiv- ing station would be set up in Palmer within the next few weeks, to take care of the pro- duce shipped to MT. Castner by members of the Valley Pro- ducers, Inc.

Chamber Asked To Press For New Rail Link

The Valley Chamber of Com merce this week received a wire from the Seattle Chamber, ask ing that this area send wires and telegrams to Congress at once, urging immediate action on the passage of a measure authorizing the construction of a rail link between Alaska and the United States.
 The Seattle Chambers mes sage said the bill seemed likely to pass Congress during the pres ent session, if interest enough were evinced in it.
 It was emphasized that no ac- tion can be taken on the railroad until agreements with Canada can be completed by the foreign affairs committee. As planned, the railroad building job would be cooperative enterprise be- tween Canada and the United States. It would link Prince George, B.C., end of the present northernmost rail line, w h Fairbanks, northern terminus of The Alaska Railroad.
 Since Congress has been re- cessed during the Republican convention, local Chamber heads took no immediate action. The matter will be discussed at the next Chamber meeting, and ap- propriate action will follow.

Miner Shot By Friend
 In Quarrel

Louis Poluck of Jonesville was described as in a critical and serious condition" by doctors at the 183rd General Hospital late yesterday afternoon. Poluck was the victim of a shooting which occurred at the Jonesville Mine early Monday morning.
 Four 'or possibly five" bull lets, according to physicians, were fired into the mans head and neck. James Vernon, close friend of many years stand ing, is supposed to have fired the shots from a .38 revolver. The story, as reconstructed by Vernon, reports that Poluck first shot at him, following a quarrel. The bullet inflicted powder burns on his shoulder, but no wound. Vernon then kicked the gun from his hand, and fired several shots at Poluck. He re- ports that he has no actual mem ory of how many times he fired. Vernon has been charged with assault with dangerous weapon. No hearing date has been set yet. A bond of $1 ,000 has been posted.
 The injured man was brought to the Valley Hospital early Mon day morning. He remained there until 8 o'clock, when the rescue helicopter of the Tenth Rescue Squadron removed him to the 133rd General Hospital.
 Both the miners are veterans. They have been working at the mine for the past year, and both are we'll known in Palmer.

clement except for the area north of the Kasilof River which lies within the moose reserve.
 The lands best suited for agri- culture lie north and northeast of Homer, north and south of Ninilchik, south and southwest of Kasilof and south and south east of Kenai. Range lands lie principally in the Caribou hills in the south central portion of the peninsula.
 Climatic records still are in- complete. However those avail able indicate that the annual rainfall at Homer is 27 inches, at Kasilof is 16 inches and at Kenai is nearly 19 inches. Total rainfall through the region aver ages about 10 inches. Rainfall is poorly distributed, for the early summer is usually dry and the late summer is wet.
 Summer maximum tempera- lures range between 55 and 65 degrees, while winter days vary from 5 to 20 degrees above zero. The growing season averages 109 days a year at Homer, 94 at Kasilof and 93 at Kenai. Graz ing season lasts from seven to eight months.
 Potatoes are now the main cash crop, but livestock is be- lieved to have the most promis- ing future in the area.

about the narrowed center; and
without a bit of doubt, the stone
had cracked many a shell more
precious than walnuts, perhaps the
heads of Delaware braves who made
their last stand against the Cataw-
has right here on Washington Coun-
ty soil
An early history of the United
States, by McMasters, gives a good
description of the various phases of
the Indians life. Here are just few
of the things McMasters says about
the Indians: "His daily food de-
pended, not on the fertility of the
soil or the abundance of the crops,
but on the skill with which he used
his bow; the courage with which he
fought, single handed, the largest
and fiercest of beasts; on the quick
ness with which he tracked, and the
cunning with which he outwitted the
most timid and keen-scented. His
knowledge of the habits of animals
surpassed that of Audubon. The
shrewd devices with which he shared
them would have elected applause.
The clearness of his vision eXcelled
that of the oldest sailor; the sharp
ness of his hearing was not equalled
by the deer"
McMasters then described the fer
ocity and the hatred that the Indian
came to bear for the whites. He
concludes: "He (the Indian) was
never so happy as when, at dead of
night, he reused his sleeping enem-
les with an unearthly yell and mas
sacred them by the light of their
burning homes. Cool and brave men
who have heard that whoop, have
left us a striking testimony of its
nature; how that no number of rep
ititions could strip it of its terrors;
how that, to the very last, at the
sound of it the blood curdled, the
heart ceased to beat and strange
paralysis seized upon the body"
This was the Indian war-whoop, a
sound that none of US will ever
hear-and we should be glad of it.
