ment supervisors, staff workers and employees on the Eklutna project, and servicemen from Ft. Richardson, who want to bring their families north, frantically are seeking living accommodations. They want homes-first to rent, otherwise to buy-but homes-or apartments.
 Problem of obtaining building materials, plus the cost and time delay of delivery, and the short length of the building season, all add to the problems of both busl- ness and home construction.

NEW YORK, sAug. 23.-(P)--
Clever Joey Maxim OF Cleveland
gave Irish Bob Murphy a Is
round boxing lesson last night
and retained his world light
heavyweight championship. An
underdog despite the fact he was
the champion, Maxim proved he
was far from washed up in win
ming the unanimous decision
from the courageous ex-sailor
from San Diego.
Murphy was outfought and
outthought almost from t IN e
start, but his right eye started to
close in the third and from the
ninth round on Irish Bob was
fighting with only one eye open.
Referee Ruby Goldstein gave
the champion 10 rounds to two
for Murphy with three even. The
judges, Harold Barnes and Char
! ley Shortell. each scored 10 for
Maxim and five for Murphy. The
Associated Press gave ii rounds
to Maxim and four to Murphy.
Maxim weighed l73 and one
half, Murphy liza and one-half.
Maxim was a IL to 5 under
dog in the first defense of the
crown he won 10 months ago
from Freddie Mills in London.
But after the first round, in
which Murphy landed a whop-
ping left hook TO Maxim's jaw,
the champion was never in trou-
BILE.
After Murphy's eye started to
close, the task was made all the
easier for the champion. With
deadly accuracy. Maxim would
dance in and out, shooting sharp
lefts and rights at the closing
eye.
Murphy spent most Of the ear
ly rounds concentrating on Max

pion never would give Irish Bob
a clear shot. Maxim moved about
