A. B. R. 10 Ecluca3e Moose-They Hope!

What's the To. of a moose? That's what The Alaska Rail- road wants to know.
 Whether the a n m als are smart enough to take refuge in 45 degree turnouts along the railroad tracks rather than ar que with two to 5000 tons of train should soon be deter mined
 Plagued by the worst moose problem in recent years, the railroad is now in the throes of hacking out angular turnouts in snoWbanks bordering the main- line. It might work. At least railroaders are hoping it will shorten the moose fatality list.
 A s i'm ar system proved fruitless in previous experiments north of Anchorag ge. But rail- roaders reckoned that the path ways to safety were usually made perpindicular to the road way. As a result, MT. Moose, who pre- CTS the snow free tracks to bucking deep drifts, scooted past the sanctuaries.
 With the turnouts at an angle, the entrance will be more ob- vious and Alaska Railroad men think maybe the moose can be switched" off the mainline.
 A bull dozer is working north and south of Montana, Mile 209.3, blading out the expert mental turnouts, Section crews in the critical area, generally defined as between Houston, Mile 174.9, and Curry, Mile 24o.5, are also scooping free parking lots' out of the snow banks.

75 Pct. Of Seward Population Immunized Against Typhoid

By the time Jesse Lee Home children and personnel have re ceived their first typhoid i'm munization shots this afternoon, seventy-fiVe per cent of the pop ulation of Seward will have re ceived the first series, which is considered enough to prevent or control any epidemic in a given area, according to Mrs. LaPreal Bic, public health nurse.
 Patients at the Sanatorium are being immuniled by phy- siciars there. and residents of the surrounding area can get their protective shots in Seward if they have not already done so.
 Ninety-six per cent of the school children have received the first series, and will get the second shot Monday, instead of today, because so many chil- dren will participate in the dance recital tonight, that Mrs. Bic postponed the ordeal.
 In reply to the question put by many persons, who for onl reason or another, were unable to be at the Health Center for the mass immunRation last Tuesday, Mrs. Bic stated today that typhoid immunization will be available to anybody on Thursdays. The immunization clinic is always open on that day. The incidence of severe colds and influenza prevented a number of adults from attend ing the clinic this week. This need not keep them from calling later
 Children in the age group from to will receive the im- munization later in the spring, probably in May.
 Health authorities expressed great satisfaction with the splen- did response of Seward people to the typhoid immunization. It practically assures the com munity Of complete safety from typhoid fever during the com ing danger months, one person stated

"Cry fhe Beloved Country" Reviewed Af WonGn's s Club

Mrs. Luella James and Mrs Martha Irwin entertained the Seward Woman's Club at the regular meeting held Monday evening in the Methodist Church parlors.
 Mrs James reviewed the book Cry the Beloved Coun- try by Alan Patton. She pre- sented the book in such way that the desire to read it for che $ self was not deterred, but enhanced. The purpose of the author, and his suggestion of a possible solution to the problem of racial differences in the gov ernment of South Africa, made one eager to read and discover tor himself.
 Mrs. Irwin carried out the theme of the week by playing several Irish numbers on the piano.
 The club accepted the respon- sibility for the American Can cer Association fund campaign which runs from April through August. Mrs. Wm. Bittncr was appointed chairman by the pres ident, Miss Frances Clark. Miss Clark also appointed the nom- mating committee to prepare for election of officers at the -pril meeting.
 Coffee and cake were served by the refreshnent committee, Mrs. Hilda More, Mrs. Margaret Webb, Mrs. Reba Rose, and Mil dred Kirkpatrick.

JIMMIE WEBB ENTERS BASIC TRAINING

James Edward (Jimmie) Webb is the latest Seward boy to have been inducted into the Armed Forces at Fort Richardson. He began his new career on March 6, the last of the 2O- and 21-year- old group to go from town.
 Jimmie was born in Seattle, February II, 1880, son of MT. and Mrs. Edward Webb, and the oldest of two sons, but younger than his sister, Mrs. Russell Painter.--
 When Jimmie was five months old, his parents moved to Sew ard, where they have lived ever since. They conduct the real estate and insurance business of Webb & Webb, and Mrs. Webb IS postmistress at Bartlett.
 Jimmie attended school in Seward and is the nearest to be- ing a native Sewardite to be called into service so far.

In an effort to explore every angle, railroad snow file e spreading machines are pushing back banks sufficiently to al low moose spacious sidewalks between snow entertainments and passing trains.
 But to educate moose? That's The Alaska Railroads big prob lem. Oscillating lights, piercing whistles, fusees, steam and even snoWballs have failed to budgo the road blocks.
 If he feels like it, MT. Moose will lope along ahead of train for a dozen miles or more. When he gets tired, he may just sit down. Or should it be Monday and perchance he doesn't like Mondays-he is apt 10 take a crack at the locomotivc-head first!
 As a result good many moose are expressed" to the happy hunting grounds. And an equal number of trains arrive hours late at the next station.
 In bygone days bridges were a sizeable problem. Moose tried to span the streams and rivers via the structures. This meant certain disaster-a broken leg, a moose to be killed and a train delay. And wrestling half a ton of moose on a bridge left sec ton men hanging on the ropes.
 Now the railroad has placed aluminium sheeting on all it's bridges in the danger area so that moose can't step between bridge ties.
 When snow becomes five to six feet deep, as it is now, the

problem becomes increasingly worSe. Faster travelling freight and passenger trains make quick stops less likely.
 For years now the Fish and Wildlife Service has worked in conjunction with The Alaska Railroad to curb the slaughter. But a good answer is still need ed.
 The railroad is spending thousands of dollars and doing everything possible to avoid killing moose" according to Holger Larsen, FWS enforce ment agent.
 Larsen points out that all meat from the kills is being put to good use. The ARR section crew nearest the kill, butchers the animal and sends the meat to the nearest Fish and Wildlife agent.
 A1oOSC meet IldS DCSI SGl1t LO practically every native village and mission," Larsen declares. Absolutely none of it is vast ed"
 Other charitable groups like the Salvation Army, mission homes, orphanages, and needy groups get their share. It has even been added to the school lunch program at Anchorage, Wasilla and Palmer.
 Meantime, railroaders are striving desperately to reduce the kills. Fingers are crossed that the 45 degree turnouts will sidetrack moose from destruc- ton and railroad" the to safety.

WILLIAMS LEAVING RANGER STATION

Ward Williams, Forest Ranger at the Lawing Ranger Station, is leaving Alaska in few days to take up his duties at Stevens Pass, V ashington, a winter sports area.
 MT. Williams has been at the LaWing station for three years, serving first with Max Roger. His son was born here. MT. Will Hams has gone about his work so quietly that he may not be well known to many people, but all visitors at the station found him friendly and sincere. His friends will miss Ward Williams and his wife, but are glad that he is being transferred to good location. Stevens Pass is about 50 miles from Everett, Wash, and about the same distance from Wenatchee, Wash, in a very beautiful section of the state.

There are not many weather accidents, but the fatality rate is high. Ii is amazing to an ex- perienced pilot, how easily a novice can fly uHsuspccting1y into the soup.
 Many instructors have had to tell their students to turn away from a fog bank or cloud deck, or to stop climbing into the cloud.
 While the action of the stu dent appears stupid, we should realize how foreign the ar is to him, So far as he is concern ed, the cloud deck is descending upon him, and he feels helpless. Peggy Weather. or
 FoggY Piloi?
 We were baffled on one of our accident investigations. The pilot crashed in creek bottom, at night, and was badly hurt. He had left in plenty of time to finish a one hour flight before dark, but ran out of gas three hours after starting.
 He said that fog and clouds closed around him, and he be- came lost. He could barely see the ground, so he stayed over the valley, for fear of the noun tains, until he ran out of gas.
 A common story indeed. but what baffled us, was that other pilots who flew the same route, reported 4000 foot ceilings, clear of all mountain tops, and com plctely unrestricted visibility. Comes The Dawn

New HaIibuf Areas Given
 Out by iF(
Catch Limifs for Various Areas Also Announced
 -0pening Dates

SEATTLE, April IT -R- The International Fisheries Commits sion announced today the creation of two new halibut fishing areas off the British Columbia and South east Alaska coasts.
 It announced the 1851 regulations have been approved by the govern ments of the United States and Canada.
 Important changes are the es- tablishment of two recently under fished sections of previous area ? as separate areas and the opening of these in late summer, at the time when they used to yield their great est catches" said the commission announcement.
 Among minor changes is a re- duction in the preseason period during which vessels may have their licenses validated, to reduce chances for illegal preseason fishing"
 The areas Gin fulD
 lA-South of Cape Blanco, Ore;
 1B-Frcm Cape Blanco to Willapa Harbor, Wash;
 2k-Between Willapa and Cape Spencer. Alaska. except for new areas 2B and PC;
 2B-Southern Hecate Strait, off British Columbia;
 2C-Between Cape Addington and Dixon Entrance, Southeast Alaska;
 Area 3-Cape Spencer to a line west from Cape Sarichef on Unimak Island;
 Area 4-Bering Sea north of Sar- ichef line.
 Catch limits will be 25,50c,00C pounds for PA; 28,0O0,000 for area and 10000 for area 4, both un- changed from 1850; no catch limits set for IA, 1B, 2B and 20.
 The fishing season will open again on May l, except in 2B and 2C. They will open for 10 days on July 26. The season ends in 1B and "A when the PA limit is caught and in IA and 3 when the limit is caught Area closes at the same time as 3 unless it is closed earlier py reaching its own catch limit. The commission predicts a 1851 l. Sls nf ER 0(0 . 900 pounds" which conforms closely to the five-year average. The ls5e Pacific Coast catch was 57.250,0O' | pounds.
 The commission said the 56,000,0oe catch is about one-third greater than the unrestricted fishery yield ed in the year before commission regulation began.
