Requests Made For Total Output EkIuina Projeef

That the total production of the Eklutna hydroelectric project has heen tentatively contracted for is announced by Joseph Morgan, AL aska director for the Bureau of Reclamation. Charles Baker, chief of the marketing and power sales division of the agency's Washington office and Morgan returned from Anchorage on Saturday, after com- pleting preliminary negotiations on the contracts.
 The total annual production of 142, 100000 kilowatt hours will be used by the City of Anchorage, the Chugach Electrical Cooperative and the Matanuska Valley Electrical Cooperative. The two co-operatives are financed by the Rural Electric Association.
 Morgan said that the final con- tracts with the three users will be drawn up after the construction contracts for the project have been accepted.
 Contract Awarded
 Contract for the construction of the Eklutna power project was awarded on September Il in Denver to three contracting firms; Morri- son-Knudsen, Peter Hewitt and Sons, and Al Coker and Sons. The joint bid submitted by the three companies was $17,348,865 while the Bureaus engineers revised esti- mate for the job was $18,175 ,568.O0. The bid includes construction of the four and half mile tunnel, dam, penstock, gate works. and surge tank.
 Morgan said that the contractors were working at top speed on the tunnel so that underground work could be started before the freeze up to continue through the winter. Dormitories and a mess hall are being built and preparations for the excavation of the Knik Arm of the tunnel have started. On the Eklut- ma Lake end of the tunnel, a 200 foot shaft is being sunk.
 Other Projects Visited
 Baker accompanied Morgan on an inspection trip to five power sites that are now being investigated by the Alaska department. Loca- tions of the proposed projects are Swan Lake near Ketchikan, Doro- thy Lake near Juneau, Blue Lake at Sitka, Wickersham project near Fairbanks, and Susitna on the AL aska Railroad near Gold Creek.

Alaskan, Batk from kcrea, Anxious 10 Be Home 10 Trap

SEATTLE, Oct. 2--tRl-Pvt. Perry Edward Smith, 23, landed yester- day from Korea and now has only little more than 2,000 miles still to go to get home.
 Private Smith lives at Trapper's Den, Alaska. He is the first soldier from the Territory to return home from the war in Korea. For that he got special recognition when a military transport with l,492 combat veterans docked at the Port of Emharkation sss
 Private Smith was the first man "sprung" from the ship.
 Troops aboard and crowds of welcomers ashore cheered as the stocky, black haired youth strode down the gangway, grinning.
 Lieut.. Col. L. E. Bartley, Alaska liaison officer for the Port of En- barkation, clutched Smiths hand and told him:

 That will leave only 162 more miles over Alaska's Glenn Highway to Smiths home Trapper's Den is not on most maps. Smiths father runs his trapline out of there.
 Smith was in Japan when the Korean war began. He enlisted at Fort Richardson, near Anchorage, in 1949. He went to Korea in an engineers company.
 Never fired shot, said Smith. T had my war running bulldozer and big crane.
 T can't wait to get back to Alaska. Dad can sure use me on that trapline."

for the Detroit Tigers. The season

is already proving his value both

Tigers, has been working Gins
berg as a starter.
April % will long be remem-
bered as big day for Joe. That
was when he belted his first
homer of the Big Leagues. It was
in a game with the Browns in
which Detroit won IA, with
many thanks to Ginsberg. Not
only did he slam the vital four

find that at about this time of year,
in 1913, 1949 and 1850, we have had
an article on white muscle disease

it prior to 1913.

White Muscle Disease Worse
Some Years; This Is One
By DR.. HOW ARD WEIGH

Probably this repetition gets tire
some to some readers. More than
likely the livestock growers are not
as interested In this disease as we
are in the research laboratory. It is
part Of job like this to be curious
about disease that we do not under
stand, and this white muscle business
really has us dizzy.
The lamb, or calf is born normally,
of normal parents, on well-managed
ranch, owned by nice people, in good
weather, and everything is lovely.
Then, at about IL days for lambs,
and IS days for calves, something
disturbs this pleasant picture. Lambs
get stiff. travel with a waddling,
heavy legged gait, have trouble get
ting up, and unless specially cared
for, die.
The calf develops much the same
set of symptoms, except that maybe
half of the affected calves have an
acute heart attack and die without
having shown any SYMPTOMS at all.
In both lambs and calves, the appe-
tite remains good and except for the
MUSICIAN stiffness do not show any
signs of illness.
White Patches in Muscles
On post mortem examination we
will see that in may of the larger
muscles Of the hips, trunk and shout
ders there are patches and strips of
white, a sort of chalky white, con-
trasting. sharply with the dark red
muscle. The white areas are heavily
impregnated with lime, the muscle
is hard and inflexible, stiff and use
less. The appearance will vary, as
the pathology Of any disease will
vary, from small strips and patches
of white to whole muscles that are
white as snow.
In few of the lambs, but in many
calves, the heart muscle is similarly
affected. The heavy wall of the
ventricle may be nearly solidly white

Confusing Factors
| r. II
Montana farmer-stockman., 1951-05-01
Confusing Factors

In the first place, this muscular
dystrophy does not occur every year.
1912 was a bad year, also 1916. In
1850 we could hardly find case in
our local hot spot, but this spring it
began to look bad. We are getting
lots of reports locally and from other
white muscle zones in the state. If
it occurred regularly, every year,
then the feeding of grain to all
breeding stock might be justified.
Or if we could even predict the bad
years and feed grain that winter it
might help.
Next, we do not understand why
this disease occurs only in definite
zones or areas. There is a spot right
south of this office, an area by 10
miles, and every ranch in that area
has had trouble with lambs or calves.
But north Of the college, clear down
the valley, not single case has been
seen. There is another spot like this
