Sweden Asks Two
Russ Diplomats
To Leave Nufion

The Swedish Foreign Office has
asked the Soviet Ambassador to
withdraw two Russian diplomats
assumed to be members Of the En-
bassy. A Foreign Office statement
said that they had been discovered
on September Is in the forbidden
Jarva military area near Stock
holm, where a great number Of
maneuvering soldiers were then
reporting for duty.
The military authorities had
tried to make the maneuvers, in
which a total of 10000 conscripts
took part, as realistic as possible.
To train the soldiers against trick
cry, they used fake spies and sab
oteurs. The units taking part in
the practices were organized on a
war basis.

Largest Football Crowd Also Biggest
To See Scandinavian Event IN NV.

The biggest crowd ever to see
Scandinavian program in the
Pacific Northwest was assembled
at the University of Washington
stadium last Saturday.
The crowd of $4,000 came to
see the Washington-M Minnesota
football spectacle and a little ex-
ira attraction thrown in for good
measure. For if the affinity and
kinship between the two states is
to be measured at all, Scandin-
avians must enter into the picture.
They did-in the half-time enter
tainment provided by the U. of
Wash, band on the field and the
large Husky roofing section in the
grandstand.
Marching out onto and across
the field in a Commute interlude,
the band went through all the
music and motions of depicting
what the loudspeaker voice had
to say about the Scandinavian mi
grations to U. S., from Left Erik
son onward. History took on a
new twist as the loudspeaker in

formed the largest football crowd
in Northwest history that the huge
Scandinavian colony in Minnesota
began showing signs of dissatis-
faction and vast sections were dis
persed by the heart-rending call
from the West and-Washington.
So out they came, the mighty
ScandinavianS, to settle where
more and bigger timber and fish
were to be had. And when they
came on top of a hill overlooking
Puget Sound, what did they see
BALLARD; and you could see the
huge letters spelled out in colored
cardboard across the grandstand,
much to the spontaneous amuse-
ment of the crowd To add more
atmosphere, fish line and hook
was extended from the grandstand
to the field, and the prize catch,
the band, was hauled in like so
many fish that reach Ballard.
Good fun and deserving en-
phasis on what makes Washington
and Minnesota have so much in
common.

tors.

group would come by PAA at a
cost of over $4,000.

VARIETY SHOW TO

JUNEAU SINGERS

If hard work is the principal in
gradients for success then the Ju-

toward fine performance in the
Rotary Variety Show on May 4.
With less than month in which
to prepare an entirely new set of
numbers the Singers have had to
hold numerous special rehearsals.
While the music being prepared is
not as difficult as the Messiah it
has required change in style
which is hard for large group
without the necessary time.
-Four popular numbers, Dry Bones,
Carmena, All the Things You Are,
and This Day is Mine, will be used
as two groups during the show.
The ever delightful, Say it With
Music" will be used as finale.
THE Singers have worked hard
on both the Messiah and the Var
iety Show music. Both the Dir
ector, Mrs. McMullin. and I have
come to the point where we dis
like to ask for the extra effort
and time that this years program
is taking, but every member of
the group has backed us all the
way. Few leaders can say that in
a group as large as the Juneau
Singers" Larry Parker, Singer
President said.
Ernest Ehler, tenor soloist in the
Messiah, arranged two of the num-
bers mentioned above and "A
Dream is a Wish Your Heart
Makes" for the Singers so that
they might present some of the
latest musical numbers to their
audience.

Cookstove Gas Runs
Tractor; Farmer
Finds 1t Cheaper
Special Dispatch TO The stur

MANASSAS, Va, July 17.-Levi
B. Miller, who operates a farm in
the Buckhall section of Prince
William County, is using cooking
gas to operate his tractor.
Mr.. Miller made the conversion
a few days ago, and reports more
power when his tractor is fed
propane, the bottled gas" that is
widely used for cooking and house
heating.
According to Alvin Compton of
the Hesco Gas Co. here, Mr..
Miller is the first Virginia farmer
to use bottled gas for tractor fuel.
Mr.. Miller reported that the
bottled gas costs about the same
as gasoline. when gasoline is pur-
chased at wholesale prices and
less the State tax. He believes
propane gives more power and is
easier on the tractor. He knows
that it provides quicker and easier
starting.
To convert a tractor to propane
requires two holes in the carbur-
etor and special valve to provide
just the amount of gas needed
by the engine. The cylinder which
contains the gas then is mounted
on special brackets that bolt on
the front Of the tractor. The con-
version unit costs less than $780,.
