Many Petersburg, WrangeII Hunters Bagging Limiis

Hunters of ducks and geese. ir the Wrangell and Petersburg area are working hard but are generally bagging their limits, according to reports received yesterday by Win ston Elkins, management supervisor of the Fish and Wildlife Service in Juneau.
 Migratory fowl season closed yes terday in the Second and Fourth Divisions and will close next We'd nesday in the Third The season re- mains open in Southeast Alaska until Nov "A. Elkins pointed out that after Wednesday, southeast Alaska will be the only area still having waterfowl hunting.
 There's lots of good hunting around here right now" Elkins said, But most hunters don't have access to transportation to get to the placeG little further away from town"
 Reports from Anchorage say that hunting of ducks and geese there was the best in years with nice weather holding late in the fall. Now, however, nearly all the fresh water hunting is over because of freezing weather. The fowl have all left the Copper river and Sus- itna Flats except for a few swan, which are illegal to hunt.

present a financial statement show ing the need for the raise.
 If the financial need is shown, the council agreed to let the raise go into effect Nov. l, next Thurs day.
 Fire Building Delay
 A request was made by the Car son Construction company for an extension of time to complete the Juneau Fire Building. The request was for 120 days The council grant, ed an extension, but for only 45 days-until Dec. 1. The construc- tion company blamed the delay in finishing the project on the lack of priority to get the steel joints re- quired in time, and on shipping de- lays in building materials.
 It was decided to go ahead on bids for painting the library base ment walls and in installing radia- tors, readying the basement for council chambers as soon as pos sible. A frame for a vault will be purchased in order that a vault can be built into a section of the basement for city and library re- cords.
 There was discussion of the build ing of the new floats in the boat harbor by the Fish and Wildlife Service and problems arising from the demand of waterfront resi- dent that he be left a waterway.
 Plans were made to sell quantity of used doors, windows and radia- tors that the city has now in stor- age. The sale and prices will be announced.
 Social Security A resolution calling for Social Security benefits for city employees was held over until next meeting. This benefit for municipal employ ees is only recently allowable under new laws. The city of Ketchikan just adopted the plan, the first city in the Territory to do so.
 New freight doors and minor re- pairs for the airport building were approved. Bills were paid and the meeting adjourned.

Juneau Council Will Review Street Needs

A special informal meeting for city council members was set last night at council meeting for next Tuesday afternoon in the office of Felix Toner, city engineer, to re- view plans for an extensive Ju- neau street improvement program.
 Mayor Waino Hendrickson said that it would only be an informal meeting to consider needs and ex- tent of the program and that the program would be reviewed further at regular council meetings After the program is. worked out, it will be one of the issues to be present. ed to voters at later date.
 City Dock Tariff
 Cleo Commers, wharfinger at the city dock, was at the meeting to present a financial statement from dock operations for the fiscal year, and to ask for an increase in tar if rates. The new tariff would come only from handling charges, with wharfage charges remaining the same as at present. Commers made what he said was rough guess" in estimating that an increase in tariff would bring S4,000 more into the treasury in years operation.
 The financial statement showed revenues increasing from $55,519.62 in the past fiscal year as compared to $29,07491 in the previous period. The net profit showed $9,4l8.9S for the past year against S5,577.47 for the previous year. Commers said the largest item eating into the re- venue was the increased total of longshoremen's wages. The state ment showed wages to longshore- men last year of $26,018.93 as against SS,52324 in the 1850 fiscal year.
 A cost-o living pay boost was okayed by the council for the wharf finger and his assistant.
 Bus Fare Increase
 K. M. Spence, of the Juneau Transit Company, was present with request for an increase in city bus fares. He presented a letter asking that the council let him raise his fares by charging 15 cents straight on round-trip fares in- stead of charging the present rate of both rides for 25 cents. Tokens would still be sold at eight for $l.
 It was decided that Spence's ac- countant should meet with c. J. Ehrendreich, public accountant, and

Louis Fading Test For Comeback in Mareiano Go Tonight

NEW YORK, Oct. 26-R-Aging Joe Louis. who wants another shot at the heavyweight crown more than anything else in the world, risks that chance tonight when he faces young, undefeated, hard hitting Rocky Marciano in Madi- son Square Garden ten rounder.
 This is the big test of his come back for the 37-year-old Brown Bomber and he knows it. A loss to the hard hitting. 27-year-old Brock ton. Mass, better means the end of the trail for one of the rings alltime greats.
 The betting professionals believe Louis is approaching the end. They have established him as a slim 6 to 5 favorite - the shortest odds in all of jarring Joe's career.
 By fight time the odds may go up to 8 to 5. The lowest price ever on Louis was the to odds for his. second fight with Max Schmeling. And you know what happened - Max was knocked out in 2:04 of the first round.
 But 13 years have gone by since then and apparently so has most of the old dynamite in the bomber's right fist.
 Louis, however, feels he has enough left to whip the crude, rough ex-GI who has come up like a rocket.
 "Ill beat him." said Louis. Maybe knock him out"
