HIKING CLUB TO BOAT
 TO TAkU GLACIER 5AT.

Members of the Shank, Ship and Shutter Club" plan trip by boat to Taku glacier on next Saturday. One week later the club members will hike to Lemon Creek glacier.
 Twenty-Five members of the club went in cars to the beginning of the trail to Herbert Glacier last Saturday. Claire Olson, a member of the Hiking Club, says: "The five mile trail to the face of the glacier was not at all difficult Climbing up to the rocky shoulder overlooking the glacier was more rugged. The flowers along the trail, including the false hellebore, were very pretty. We took many good pictures of the glacier and the blue ice tunnels. We learned that it is dangerous to hike too close to the face of the glacier. What seems to be firm ground may give way, dropping the hiker into a soupy mixture caused by the glacier melting underneath. It was worthwhile hike"

JOE PAGE
 I5 LOSING AS HURLER
(By the Associated Press)

What ever happened to fireman Joe Page of 1949-the greatest re- lief pitcher ever?
 Recent work of the New York Yankees bullpen artist reminds fans of the Page of 1943-an in- and-outer who flopped after glori- ous pennant year in 1947.
 Highest priced of all Yankee pitchers with a $30,000-plus wage, Page failed the world champs yes terday for the second day in row.
 Bothered by sinus infection dur ing the long home stand, Page has seen little action. He had a weeks rest before Stengel tried him in Chi cago Tuesday night. Joe didn't have it.
 Allie Reynolds was one out away from victory yesterday when the White Sox caught up with him, with two gone in the ninth and New York leading, 2-1, a single and walk by pinch hitters Floyd Baker and Luke Appling and a single by Chico Carrasquel tied the score.
 Stengel took the ball from Allie and waved in Page. Joe's third pitch to Dave Philley sailed into the lower left field seats for a three-run homer and the ball game, 5-2.
 Last season Page strode from the bullpen 60 times. The Tanks won 42, lost IT, and tied one of those games, so far in 19 appearances by Page, New York has won II and lost eight.
 Especially alarming to Stengel is Pages new habit of throwing the home run ball. Five hitters have hit homers off him so far Only seven did the trick all last season.
 Pages failure cost the Tanks a chance to gain on Detroit Instead the Tigers clung to their half game lead despite an 8-2 defeat by Phila- delphia.
 Lou Brissie, whose only previous win came May 27 when he stopped a New York nine-game win streak, turned in a neat six-hit job against the league leaders.
 The Athletics handed Dizzy Trout his first loss, with Elmer Valo and Eddie Joost hitting home runs.
 Five homers featured the night game between Cleveland and Bos- ton, won by the Indians, 7-3. Larry Dolby, Al Rosen and Lou Boudreau were the long distance clouters for Cleveland, Vern Stephens and Ted Williams for the Red Sox. Williams collected No 19 off Mike Garcia in the third with one on.
 Ellis Kinder continued to throw that gopher ball up to the plate, yielding all three Cleveland homers. BOudreau's was his first of the sea- son.
 Conrad Marrero held St. Louis to four hits as Washington thrust the Brownies into the cellar with Al victory.
 National League activity consisted of one night game. Rain washed out the rest of the schedule.
 The onrushing Cardinals racked up their seventh straight win be- hind Max Lanier. The chunky southpaw let down the Phillies with six hits, Az, as St. Louis stretched it's lead to 31s games over idle Brooklyn.

aA t*Nass Bank Deposits Total
 Almost Three Million

Deposits at the Bank of Ko- diak on Tuesday reached a total of $2, 972, 900, the highest amount since the wartime boom of 1943, Marshall Crut- cher, president of the bank. said yesterday.
 The bank opened it's doors on March 4. 1940 and less than three years later on Jan. 6, 1943 deposits totaled 3,824, : 900. However, in the same month construction work at the naval base was curtailed and large numbers of civil ans were replaced by Seabees.
 As workers left Kodiak, deposits declined to a low on Nov. z, 1914 of $l, 627, 900. Fol a couple of years after that deposits remained unchanged, but since 1946 there has been a continuous growth which has led to the deposits on Tuesday of $2, 972, ,OOO." Crutcher said.

Saving deposits today are $7O7, O0O,l only $1OO,OOO less than they were at the peak of the war boom and have been holding steady in the face of all of the war rumors, he added.
 Pointing to the checking account deposits and their in- crease Crutcher said, That is a good sign of the general business activity in Kodiak. "
 He added that in some years depsoits reach their peak in the month of September and it is possible that Tuesdays peak may be surpassed laeer this year.

Widespread unemployment among Alaskan workers has placed an un- precedented work-load on the Elm ployment Security Commission dur ing the past few months, according to R. E. Sheldon, executive direc- tor
 Unemployment insurance pay ments to workers who were inyol- untarily unemployed during the month of March, amounted to $654,35S, as compared to $413,997 paid in March. last year.

Claimants whose status under the law, i. e.. whether eligible or ineligible, is not clear, are request ed to wait at least a normal length of time to allow for mail delays and routine administrative proces sing.
