WASHINGTON, March 2O-R- The government plans to step up it's survey projects in Alaska at the urging of the Defense Depart ment.
 The US. Coast and Geodetic Survey has asked Congress for S12,- 292 900 for the 12 months starting next July Ia $1,024, ,760 increase over the sum appropriated for this fiscal year.
 Rear Adm. Leo o. Colvert. survey director, told a House Appropria- tions subcommittee most of the additional funds would be spent in surveying Alaskan and Aleutian waters and the interior of the Ter ritory.
 The House group made Colvert's testimony public today.
 He asked $26O,000 for reactivation of the ship Surveyor, now laid up in Seattle, adding:
 The strategic importance Of Alaskan waters and the urgency of surveys in that region for national defense purposes make it essential to assign this ship to such surveys in 1951"
 In addition, $166,3OO is sought for survey of $500 miles of land in Alaska and in the Aleutians. Col vert said this has been labeled first priority" by the Defense Depart ment.

 HIGH SCHOOL
 One of our great American heroes is Colonel Charles A. Lind bergh, born on Feb. 4, 1902. His birthday is tomorrow. He was born in Detroit, Michigan, but spent his boyhood days at Little Falls, Minnesota. Lindbergh spent two years at the University of Wisconsin studying mechani- cal engineering and continued his studies at the Lincoln Aircraft School, located at Lincoln, Ne braka. In 1923, he made his first flight. Four years later on the Spirit of St. Louis, he flew alone from New York to Paris. The first part of the trip was comparative yl easy but as night came on he encountered fog and snow. He did not have a radio nor parachute in his plane. Finally he saw a fish ing boat close to Ireland. He tried to get directions from the boat but could not. Soon he flew along the coast of Ireland. then south ern Englnad and landed at Le Bourget Field in Paris on May 20, 1927.
 Colonel Lindbergh and his wife, the former Anne Morrow, visited Nome on Aug. l2, 1881 on their memorable flight to the Orient.
 The English classes are study ing sentence structure. Reading charts showing the progress of each student in outside reading in Eng. III who have read the most are: Harold Bell, Ralph Bingham, Juanita Fagerstrom, Irene Gray, Olga Hay, and Alice Miller.
 The following Eng. II students are furthest in their reading: Katherine Bjornstad, Cliff d Cobb, Raymond Miller, and Clyde Nershak.
 A new course this semester is blue print reading and the stu dents are answering questions about actual blueprints.
 We are very happy to welcome to our High School a new stu dent, Ruth Fagerstrom. Our High School has a unique record this year of being the largest for many years and what is more unusual, not one student has dropped out.
