SITkA BIDS FOR BB T0URNAMENT;
 LIONS ARGUMENI

Shall the Juneau Lions Club give the Gold Medal Basketball Tourna- ment to Sitka for 1852, due to lack of facilities to handle it in Juneau?
 That was the question discussed with great feeling pro and con in an overtime meeting of the Juneau Lions Club this noon at the Bar anof hotel. The matter was broughs to a head upon receipt of letter from Charles Kidd of the Sitka Lions Club requesting the tourna- ment in alternate years. Kidd out lined the greater facilities for hand ling the tournament there. Action taken at board meeting recom- mended that Sitka have the tourna- ment on a trial basis for next year only.
 Clarence Warfield expressed the opinion that Juneau should not give the tournament away since it had been started by the Juneau Lions Club and eventually adequate fa- cilities will be built here. George Danner pointed out that once the tourney is permitted to go to an- other town, it will be hard to get T. back.
 Al Ransome said that the fufVre of basketball should be considered and if Juneau could not h70d'e r z tournament, the Juneau club should not be selfish in retaining i6. Ec Chester reminded the Lions that the tournament lad made Juneau the basketball cen5er of Southeast Alaska and it was up to the school board, the city and the businessmen of Juneau to get together Ii they want the tournament to continue to be held in Juneau.
 Art Hedges pointed out that the only progress made toward mere adequate facilities for accommc- dating the. tournament had beer made by the Lions Club in raising nearly $1,Oo0 toward gymnasium.
 The matter was finally tabled tn til next Monday meeting.
 It was announced that the cll-c would spend up to $100 toward basketball scoreboard for Douglas.
 A member of the Arcada, Calif., Lions Club attended the funeral of Juneau Lion Floyd Fagerscn on be- half of the Juneau Club, president Jerry Williams told the club.
 Visitors were Gene Norton and Herb Rowland of Juneau.

WOMEN 5kLER5 IN
 RUNS, SUN VALLEY
By ARNOLD CLAAsSEN

SUN VALLEY, Idaho, March 12- R-How good skier is Sally Neid- finger of Hanover, N. H., who swept all three Olympic trial titles? How good is Katy Rodolph of Hayden Colo, who dominated the Nationals 10 days ago?
 In the opinion of Mrs. Alice Kiaer of New York, chairman of the Wo- mems Olympic Ski Committee, each is as good right now as Gretchen Fraser was the year before she brought the U. s. its first Olympic skiing gold medal in the 1948 games at St. Moritz, Switzerland.
 The outlook in the mems division isn't as clear cut, even if there were no military draft. Jack Reddish of Salt Lake City won the Olympic trial downhill and placed second in the slalom over the weekend to gain the combined crown.

 Senator Garnick cited the big in come from nonresident fishermen's licenses, but the bill sponsors con- tended most of it came from fish ermen working the inside waters.
 The other bill passed by the Sen ate would eliminate the administra- tion of paths to persons signing re- call petitions. It would make the signing of a petition by an unquali- fled person a misdemeanor, as a substitute for the oath.
