 The cable will carry power from Bureau of Reclamation hydroelec- tric plants through the Ava B. Adams tunnel under the Continent al Divide west of Denver. Colo.
 Use of the submarine cable route through the tunnel which also car ,ries water diverted from the west slope of the Rocky Mountains to the water-short eastern foothills area of Colorado, will save about half million dollars under the cost of constructing a surface line over the high mountains in that area.
 The cable will be contained in a gas-filled pipe to keep water from entering and to minimize moistur condensation in the pipe

 I was amazed, such little effort to go to the library where there is so many fine things to learn from books and courteous treatment from the lady in charge and yet was alone except for one man who was catching up with reading the current magazines. l wonder why more don't have the inclina- tion to go to the library more often.

Story AT 3 Theatres

All a baseball player has to do to

get himself cast in picture. For
further proof of the rigors accomp-
anying movie-making just ask Jackie
Robinson who stars as himself in

Story" which will open Wednes-
day at the Ritz, Harlem and Ace.
After only three-week stint be-
fore the cameras, he had been given
such a workout that he was only a
few pounds over his playing weight
of 1876 pounds. In fact, Jackie stat
ed that the running he did and the
base stealing necessary for the
camera, worked him as hard as any
training schedule, often harder. The
reason many scenes had to be
shot over and over again because
of varying camera angles. not to
mention the number of times a piece
of business had to be shot over
again because it didn't look just
right for the cameras.

Conducting Business On
Sunday

An interesting decision of our
Supreme Court was recently hand
ed down in the celebrated case of
the State of Washington VS.. Joe
Grabinski, No. 3O788. The case
was heard on an appeal from a
Yakima Superior Court trial in
which the defendant was convicted
of selling meats and groceries on
Sunday.
State law prohibits the sale of
uncooked meats and groceries on
Sunday. Mr.. Grabinski violated
the law and was convicted of so
doing. The S upreme Court af-
firmed the conviction.
The statute involved was passed
by the legislature in 1900 and it
was last affirmed by the Supreme
Court in 1927. The defendant ar
gued that different conclusion
should now be reached by our
courts in view of the many
changes that have taken place
since then. Among these changes
that were brought before the at
tention of the court was the fact
that in 1947 the Game Commission
fixed Sunday as the opening of the
fishing and hunting season and
that the State Horse Racing Com
mission has authorized horse rae
ing and betting on Sundays.
The court took cognizance of the
fact that there exists in the State
of Washington widespread viola
ton of the law involved and held
that this argument could not be
presented to the court. The law
was constitutional, said the court,
and it cannot be argued that it
has been repealed merely because
it is not being widely enforced
nor can the defendant argue that
! he should not be punished merely
! because a host of other people are
committing the same crime and
go unpublished.

Big Sum Spent
On New HOUSING
In North Norway

Reconstruction of the Northern
province of Finmark, which was
totally destroyed by the Nazis, is
progressing well according to
latest reports.
So far 6,079 permanent build
ings have been put up, of which
4,123 are dwellings, and the rest
buildings for business, factories,
farms and docks. However. $4,000
persons, or 81 per cent of the
population still live in temporary
housing. On the other hand, IS
per cent of the pre-war floor space
has been rebuilt, and all the new
housing is modern and far above
pre-war standard. 1t is estimated
that the new housing in Finmark
so far represents an investment of
about one billion kroner.
