.Guardsmen Are Inspiration 10
 Their Officers

HEADQUARTERS, Alaska Ma tional Guard-Final elements of southeast Alaska's Island Army" are training at Camp Mendenhall Glacier, thanks to an airlift unique in National Guard history.
 Men from island towns and vil- lages throughout the territory's panhandle" got together as unit for the first time since inauguration of the 208th Infantry Battalion (separate) over year ago. Flown in by float plane, bush pilot and luxury airliners the AVG troops have set an impressive record of attendance at the encampment, which will last through December g.
 During the encampment the "Is- land Army" will get special train ing in functioning as unit as well as intensive practice under the in- structions of regular Army special ists of the U. s. Army, Alaska. From Panhandle
 The 208th is composed of men from all the major towns on the islands that make up the Pan- handle. Since the unit was organ ized, in the summer of 1850 they have held weekly drill and train ing periods in small local groups. Instructors reached the units by means of a float-equipped plane, explaining technical manuals and preparing small groups for missions of scouting and patrolling, as well as infantry tactics.
 In many towns units hold regular meetings and store weapons at arm- ories. In the smaller villages mem- bers of the guard have special per- mission to keep their weapons as well as personal field equipment.
 At Sitka where exceptional h. dian and Eskimo youths are train ed in trades at a government school, there is a high percentage of par ticipation in the guard program. Tn Ketchikan nearly half of the units members are of Indian an- cestry. By encouraging their enlist ment and making full use of their knowledge of the outdoors and fam iliarity with the coast, the Alaska National Guard has formed loyal and effective Army of sentinels to protect the territory's countless fjords and inlets from hostile in- truders.
 High Espirit De Corps
 Other units of the 208th have been recruited at Hoonah, Angoon and Metlakatla. Recruiting in south east Alaska is less problem than communication between units, ac- cording to officers of the AVG. Membership in the guard is prized highly by the residents of southeast Alaska and respected by those who are not members. In several cases all the boys of one family have en- listed in the 208th Infantry Battal- ion. The social and economic bene- fits of guard membership have re- suited in a high degree of unit loy- alty and espirit de corps. Absentee ism from meetings by one member of a unit is looked on distastefully by the others, who feel that mem- tmership in the guard is distinct privilege.
 Stiff Requirments
 Indeed, at Sitka, school grades are a prerequisite to joining the

Employed women should notify the Federal Social Security ad- ministration when they marry so their names can be changed on the administrations record in our central office, James G. Browne, manager of the Social Security administration, advised today.
 If they will do this they will make it easier for themselves and the administration when the time comes to file claims for old age and survivors insurance benefits, vBrowne explained.
 For the woman who marries and wants to change her name, the administration has provided a special form, which she should fill out, attach the social security card bearing her maiden name and send or bring the form to our office.
 We do not assign her a new number, but issue new card bearing her present name and the number that was originally as signed to her. She then will have only one social security number during her entire lifetime. If she had more than one number, she might stand to lose her benefits.
 The administration keeps all information it receives from the worker strictly confidential.
 The worker may obtain further information from the Juneau of flee of the Social Security admin istration located in the Seward building or post office box 1881, Juneau, Alaska, Browne stated.
 Forms for changing names on social security records may be obtained from U. s. Commissioner Dorothy Saxton in Palmer.

The George Smalls took a moi so-small part of the Valley with them as they drove out of town early Monday morning for a des- tination uncertain.
 We've sold out here lock. stock, and barrel, he said before he left. But everyone says, we'll be back.
 Ii was hard to believe that the Smalls would not be back. After having lived in Alaska for 36 years, arriving in Anchorage in 1915 and coming to Palmer in 1895, they had identified them selves indelibly with the commu- mites they had helped to grow.
 Georges contribution to the Valleys growth was the down. to-earth business of land clear ing. Operating with his own bull dozing equipment, he had brought into use large sections of the Mat anuska valley for business, hous- ing and agriculture.
 For those he left behind, he had a message in poetry and prose.
 T have certainly appreciated the cooperation and business of all associates in Alaska, he said. They're all my friends. I've worked for a lot of people around here.

George smuIIs Prospecting for New Home After 36 Years in Alaska

When the golden sun is sinking,
 And your heart from care is
 free.
 When Of others you are thinking.
 Will you sometime think of
 me-.
 No discredit of Bob Klem's ar tistry should be attributed to the poetic farewell, George insisted. The Smalls have been very ac- tive in the Northland Pioneer Grange. George is a Past Master He has also been a member of the MEA board, the school board and the Chamber of Commerce.
 The Smalls leave behind them in the Valley their daughter, Mrs. Bert Stewart, a granddaughter, emory Stewart, and Mrs. Smalls sister, Mrs. Art Stacey.
 Southern Oregon, near the Rogue river area, is a possible spot in the Smalls' prospecting plans. They might stay there and they might not. They just might come back to Alaska.
 Z's Move In
 Two hours after the Smalls left, Superintendent William T. Zah- radnicek and his wife were nov ing their things into the house vacated them. The Zahradniceks had purchased it recently for their home.

ing a reduction in the $3.50, 900
bail which keeps him in Jail on
narcotics charges.

prohibition days Instituted habeas

hearing will be held Monday be-
fore Federal Judge Edward j.
Dimock.
Wexler's lawyer, Mark Ben
jamin, said in applying for the

amount of bail is excessive" and
that it is comparable to a denial
of bail.
Wexler is charged by the Fed
Ieral Government with conspiracy
to violate the narcotics laws.
Federal narcotics agents arrested
him and three other men on Au-
gust 2. The agents reported seiz-
ling a large amount of heroin.
