SOAP BOX DERBY RACERS EASIER TO
 BUILD THIS YEAR

Soap Box Derby racing cars are easier than ever to build this year
 The National Rules Committee in making revisions for the 1851 Official Rule Book, stressed the fact that ease of construction would be the biggest possible contribution to- giving the race to the boys"
 Confusing and confining rules were eliminated. The 1850 rule which prohibited laminated con- struction was eliminated. For 1851 racing cars, boys may use various types of body construction.
 A boys weight is no longer big factor in Derby car building. The new rules provide that a car may carry added secured weight. tc bring the total of car and boy up to the 250-pound limit. This is ex- pected to make it easier for light boys to compete fairly against bigger boys.

JULY, AUGUST DATES SET FOR
 KID TROUT DERBY

Plans for the Territorial Sports mems Inc, junior trout derby are moving forward. Preliminary plans have been outlined by the board of directors with 10 or more awards set up which include a bicycle, camera, sleeping bag and several fishing outfits.
 Age limit will be through Is years. All species of trout will be consid- cred that are caught in Salmon, Montana or Sheep creeks. Size is to be determined on poundage basis after the fish is dressed and gills are removed Weighing-in stations remain to be found and will be an- nounced later
 Tentatively set dates are from July to August 19 inclusive. The valid ity of the catch must be certified by an adult and the trout must be hooked and landed by the contest ant without assistance.
 A small entry fee will be charged to help cover the cost of bras sard which will be given to each contestant.
 Each participant will be asked to sign the conservation pledge which reads: T give my pledge as an American to save and faithfully to defend from waste the natural resources of my country it's soil and minerals, it's forests, waters and wildlife"
 The Sportsmen believe that from the junior trout derby an affiliated organization might be born, if there is sufficient interest.

FOOLS GOLD IN DEMAND BY LARGE
 INDUSTRIAL FIRM

In years past many a prospector's heart momentarily has beaten faster at the appearance of outcrops of yellow metal. only to discover on closer Investigation it was compara- lively worthless fools gold. Today, however, large deposits of this min
 eral may bring real gold into the pockets of the Territory's prospec- tors, it is reported by the Alaska Development Board.
 A large industrial firm in the eastern United States has written the board asking for information
 about deposits of iron pyrite and
 other sulphides in the more access
 slble regions of Alaska. If sufficient
 ly large deposits are found the com
 pany will have an engineer examine
 ,hem with the view toward estab-
 lishment of an important new in-
 dustry in the Territory.
 The potential value of this min eral recently was described to the Seattle Chamber of Commerce by Ernest N. Patty, former dean of the University of Alaska's School of Mines, who told the group that Alaska pyrite deposits may be of high strategic importance.
 Prospectors knowing of iron pyrite or other sulphide deposits in the Territory are asked to write the AIDE, Box 50, Juneau.

The use of metal springs of any kind is forbidden in the 1951-model racers. This rule was adopted to cut down costs, to make cohstruc- tion easier and to encourage boy built cars. Rules committee mem bers felt that average boys could not handle metal-spring fabrica- ton without costly work in profes- sional shops.
 Tricky construction of steering gear was eliminated by a new rule which provides that the center of the steering wheel must be no farther forward than the driver : knees when he is in driving pos ition.
 Safety factors were considered at all times when the new rules were drafted, especially in new section about brakes. It is now provided that the bolts which hold the fac ing to the brake shoe must be counterSunk.
 The safety factor also dictated the new rule which provides that the floorboard, if made of wood must be at least three-quarters oi an inch thick. It may be thicker however, depending on how much weight the builder wants to builc into the car in this fashion.

mated today that another IL mil
lion men and women must be

Mr.. Tobin said more than.

clip by the end of 1851 and con-
tinue at that rate for at least

MFR. Tobin said in a statement
such a program means that IL
million persons s-more than one
