only few inches at the bottom.

nearby, Is feet across and about
9I2 feet deep. When they reached

to little Jimmie Zarling. who lives
at nearby Imogene. He was hos

aim is to look deeper into the
Alger HISS case.
Mr.. Nixon saio the subpoena was
issued at his suggestion. Mr..
Pressman is scheduled TO testify
August %.
Split With Murray.
Mr.. Nixon said he decided it
would be a good idea to call Mr..
Pressman because of his recent
break with the American Labor
Party in New York. Mr.. Pressman
pulled out on the ground the
American Labor Party was fol-
lowing the Communist line.
Mr.. Pressman is a former Agri-
culture Department attorney who
later became general counsel Of
the CIO. He quit the C1O after
a split with President Phillip Mur-
ray over policy.
Mr.. Pressman figured in the
testimony of Elizabeth Bentley.

Russian spy ring. Miss Bentley
said he was member of cell"
operating in the Washington Gov
ernment.
Refused Answers.
Mr.. PresSman testified during
the committees Whitaker Cham
bers-Alger Hiss hearings, but gave
little information. He refused to
say whether he knew Chambers
or whether he was or had been
member of the Communist
Party.
Chambers, time Communist
and later a senior editor of Time
magazine, told congressional in
veStigators that Hiss. former high
official in the State Department.
was a source for Government
secrets which Chambers said he
passed along to Soviet spy leaders.
Hiss has been convicted of perjury
in connection with his sworn de-
nial that he passed out any such
information.
Mr.. Nixon told a reporter his
idea is that Mr.. Pressman can fill
in missing links" in the Cham
bers-H Hiss affair.

Next item on the agenda at the camp of scientists of the Juneau Ice Research Project on the Ju- neau ice field, is the removal of a two-inch circle of ice, 600 feet long, from the ice cap. The work will be conducted under the di- rection of A. K. Anderson, dia- mond drill expert, who will use special equipment for the job. A tWo-inch aluminium pipe will be sunk in the hole left by the drill ing operations.

We have some rather special plans for the next few days in August, and we thought wed like to e<- plain them to you this week. We offer this as an ex- pIunotion only, and with no apologies, although we fully intend to do less than job for the next couple of issues of the Valley Frontiersnnon.
 We're expecting to take q sort of sen1i-vocotion from this job of editing, reporting and putting to- qether newspaper. But we can't get regular holiday What we re planning is an on-ob vacation, which W'l be very nice for and better than of the regular kind for Frontersrnun readers

 Of course that time spent with them will mean time away from the Valley Frontiersnnon. We're explaining this, because we hope that perhaps our readers con help us bit with news gathering in the next two weeks We intend to go to just as few meetings as we possibly can in the IA days ahead. So we'd like to ask that if we miss meeting normally attend us reporter you see that some nd Of an account reaches our desk.
 We know that's q poor way to report, but we haven't even guilty conscience about it. Were wurninq you now that we're going to do poor job ot reporting in the next two weeks. You'll get your regu- lar issue of the Valley Frontiersmun and it will have as much Valley news in it gather in the lno- ited time we intend to spend on it.
 If you, our readers, would like to help by submit tina newsworhy items club reports and other material for the columns of the Valley Frontiersrnon we'll be deeply grateful But if you don't, we're still going to take that semi-vocotion for the next IA days.
 We would like to add one final word-f something important crops up, and we can't be reached at the offce call us at home We don't intend to so far for get the Frontersmon that can't make special effort to get where we int to be when we ought tc there.
