LAKE GEORGE GOES
 BACK TO NORMAL
(By The Associated Press)

Good old reliable Lake George near Palmer, Alaska, has released its avalanche of sodden ice and settled down to wait out another year.
 The lake is a freak of nature 90 square miles of water located between the face of Knik Glacier and the foot of the Chugach moun- tains.
 During the year, ice from the gla- cier blocks the narrow outlet into Knik River.
 In late July or August, warm weather and the pressure of the ice and water against the frozen dam breaks the jam. The ice breaks from it's prison and roars down the narrow gorge Of the Knik River with the roar of million thun- derstorms
 The ice jams in the tight passes and at places the ice and water reach depths of 200 feet The silt darkened water charges each new dam until it is smashed and the mass finally reaches the ocean.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2.-R- Hawaii was given new argument for statehood when the census bur- eau estimated the territory has grown 26 per cent in population since 1940

 Black List
 Unethical firms will be blacklist ed and federal employees warned about taking favors, he said, add ing:
 Tt is my honest opinion that this procedure, together with the policy of decentralizing procure ment and the maintaining Of ade- quate, courteous and efficient in- formation centers will cause the so- called five percenter to wane and die because there will be no need for his services"
 The term five percenter has been used to describe those who seek out government contracts for others for fee-usually five per cent. That activity isn't illegal. but the Sem ate group has been searching for signs that it involved influence peddling."

midnight, Jackson Street is as
dark as the color on the faces of
the majority of its people.
When the taverns and liquor stores
had sold their last bottles, the Ne
groes stagger aimlessly home, the
Filipinos vanish quickly and the
Japanese Americans are not to be
seen.
Only note that there is still life
on Jackson St., is the cry of the
mattresses in the Japanese-owned
restaurants. Occasionally, a para
sitical pimp. sporting a flashy auto,
drives by with his paltry woman
to let people know he is in business
yet.
After midnight, Jackson Street
is like beaten-up prostitute: she
is gruesomely "purty" and spirit
ually lost, down and out.
