 There is ample space on the edge of Seward for your equip ment. Do you think that in a town of about 250O that the show would pay off? What per centage would go to the town for the privilege of setting up in Seward? Do you have a license to operate in the Territory of Alaska? What are the charges to the public for your various amusements? We would like more details on the prospect before we can give you any def mite information. .....-...
 We are taking the matter up with the people, to see if they would like to have your show and equipment in Seward; then if you would give us some more details as requested above, we can come to more definite un- derstanding concerning same. The people have to want the show or it will not be profitable for you to come to Seward, and we would like to know more about what you propose to put on.
 We will advise you further on this subject. ....

AUS Improved Foul Shooting
Avenges Early Loss to Loyo1o

American University got even
with Loyola last night in more
ways than one.
The Eagles beat the Greyhounds
53-48, in Baltimore for a go
Mason-Dixon Conference record
and 1875 for the season. Loyola
lost it's third league game against
five victories.
When Loyola upset AU early in
the season, 40-39, American U
missed 25 foul shots out of 38
Loyola made IA out of 20.
Last night Loyola missed 16 out
of 26, including eight misses in 1C
tries by Ben Cook. American U
made 81 out of 81 and won the
game, although outscored 1915
from the floor.
Ronnie Garshag was the key
man for the Eagles. He shook of
his recent scoring slump with a
17-point performance and was a
big help off the backboards. In
the first Loyola game he made one
foul shot and missed seven. Last
night he hit 5-for-5.
Leroy Ishman, AUS captain
clicked for 18 points and was all
over the court. AU was ahead
after Ed Moffatt scored the first
five points of the game until
Loyola tied it at 27-all. The Eagles
moved ahead at SLAB and barely

ADJUSTMENTS.
ADVISES MEN
Who HAVE
Thin HAIR

fyour hair is thin on top or reced-
ing at the temples-don't make
the mistake SO many men do and
plaster it down with greasy, sticky
products which make your hair
look like less than you really have.
Besides, such products leave an
unattractive shiny, greasy-look-
ing film which shows through on
the scalp-which traps and holds
dandruff flakes.
So start today and groom your
hair with Kreml Hair Tonic to
avoid a shiny, greasy-looking
scalp-and to make hair look
thicker. Kreml alone has this
special combination of rare hair
grooming ingre dents. Kreml
doesn't look or feel the least bit
greasy or sticky yet it keeps hair
perfectly in place all day so
natural looking. That's why
Kreml is also preferred among
men with full heads of hair who
despise greasy goo. Also a won-
derful treatment to remove dam
druff fakes and dead scalp skin
cells. Kreml always feels so CLEAN
on your scalp and hair.
The makers of Kreml sell it on
the strict guarantee that if you
don't think it makes thin hair look
thicker and more handsome than
it has looked in years-your
money will be refunded. A mighty
fair offer and one you men with
thin hair should jump at. Why
not prove it to yourself today!

Annapolis Roads Course
Is Opened 10 Public

The 9-hole golf course at An
napolis Roads will be operated as
public course this year for the
first time since it was opened in
1923, the Shields brothers, Ray
and Roy, announced yesterday.
The move was made because of
the lack of weekday play at the
resort course on Chesapeake Bay.
Season tickets will be available
and the club will be open for pri-
vate golf outings. Green fees will
be 81 weekdays and 81 week ends
and holidays.
The Shields brothers took over
the White Flint course on Wis
consin avenue last year. The fact
that it was packed with golfers
most of the time while their other
venture. Annapolis Roads, was idle
because it was private, influenced
their decision to open Annapolis
Roads to the public.

afraid of it at first. but now the

the team which has a 1873 record,
will be on the bench, his shoulder
in a cast. Jones suffered a
shoulder separation yesterday as
the Generals overwhelmed Mont
gomery Blair. 60-46, at WI.
Jones is the most aggressive
player on the squad" Coach John
Rothrock says. That's how he
got hurt-diving after a loose ball.
Losing him is going to hurt
our chances plenty in The Star
Tournament. We have some cap
able reserves. but Jones just can
not be replaced. Our team has
been built around him. I think
he is one of the top players in
the area"
Jones, who missed being named
All-State by one vote last season
and is a virtual cinch for the
honor this year, was injured in a
collision with Blair's Jim Will
liams. Up to that ponit he had
scored seven points.
Bill Heath was high for the
winners with 13 points, while
game honors went to Blair's Bill

A standout bowler in the Build
ing and Loan League for number
of years, Fred Dieterich of Airing
ton this season also Is leading the
Masonic League with a 122-plus
average.
Bowling with the Metropolis
team two nights ago at Chevy
Chase, Fred rounded out a 433
set with a 1876 game that came
within eight pins of equaling the
season record, 1913, recently fired
by Joe Kidwell of the Columbia
Federal quint in the Building
and Loan loop.
With Dieterich sure to top the
B-L loop again with better
than-120 average. the individual
championship of the Masonic loop
would place him among the few
Capital bowlers ever to lead two
leagues in one season.
Last season Russ Spilman,
WaShington's No. / pinman, led
the Clarendon Major and Airing
ton Post Office Leagues and now
appears well on his way to retain
his titles. Currently Pat Cres-
cenzi is the pacesetter in two
leagues with sensational 1877
in the Major District and 1874 in
the Police loop.
Several seasons ago Julie Singer
won the Major District title and
led one of the Greenway CONNER
cial leagues
Karl CAochenour won the
Brookland Merchants and the
Mount Vernon Church League
titles the same season. Harry
Krauss, before he gave up active
bowling in the early 1920s, led
the District and Masonic Leagues
but the list of bowlers winning
two league championships in a
single season isn't very long.
Astor Clarke is believed to be
the only Washington bowler to
win three league titles the same
season. The former six-time No.
duckpinner of the country 1885,
400 won the Major District,
Rosslyn Major and Federal
Leagues championships in 1910.
Two season team records were
surpassed in the Capitol Ladies
Major League at King Pin last
night as Clarendon marked up a
656 game in 81 win from King
Pin while the losers tailed an
even 1900 set. Swamped in the
first tilt, 631 to $50, Clarendon
bagged the second in record
smashing fashion, 656 to sos. and
the final on a roll-of after each
team tailed 561.
