FIoodIights For
18th Street CROSSING

Plans have been made to install
floodlights at the dangerous 18th
Street railroad crossing of the
Southern Pacific Railroad. This
crossing has one of the highest
accident rates in the County, with
50 persons injured, and one killed
during the past five years. About
80 per cent of the accidents at this
crossing have occurred at night and
it is hoped that better lighting
will make trains and freight cars
more visible to motorists. The pro-
ject is a joint venture of the City
and County. 1t is estimated the in
stallation will cost each about $500
year. There are no signal lights
at the crossing now. Signals are
expected to be installed when the
Supreme Court rules on a test case
involving the Alma School crossing
at Mesa. A recent ruling of the Su
perior Court on this particular
crossing was that the County must
pay half the cost of installing sig
mails and the railroad the other
half. The County appealed the case
to the Supreme Court because the
precedent established might cost the
County thousands of dollars to sig
nalize other railroad crossings.

Style influences from around the worldsar the new fashions shown
at the summer furniture markets.
Shown above is the simplicity of Danish styling. This grouping is
one Of the most versatile collections of living, dining and bedroom
furniture.
Not only are these units interchangeable from room to room, but
within a room, and with each other. They bring an unusual and pleasant
architectural aspect to our homes. For this custom look, base pieces
are individual units, separate from cabinets and drawer chests, Great
ing a free scaling variation about the room. The base units may also be
used as benches n coffee tables. Note the extra storage space in the
three drawers of the base units.
The wood is walnut, finished to have a hand+rubbed sheen, which
allows the full beauty of the wood to show through-an increasing
trend in new furniture styles.
Sliding drawers in the chests are reversible-one side is a walnut
finish, and the other side is a dramatic black panelyte.
New fashion touches are the louvred drawer fronts on case pieces,
and the tamboured cabinet for either Teevison or Hi-Fi.

TAIPEI (P) Chinese Nation alists and communists today fought their heaviest gun bat tie this year in the Formosa strait vestpocket war, the Ma tionalist defense ministry Ter ported.
 The ministry said Reds at Lienho on the mainland and on tiny Tateng island fired 681 shells at Quernoy, Nationalist outpost just off the mainuand in two hours.
 The Nationalists hit back vigorously and silenced the Red guns, the ministry said.
 The comnunique gave no hint how many shells the Ma tionalists fired but said their artillery showed it's firepow- er." This suggested the Reds received more than they gave.
 Nationalist casualties were listed as two civilians killed and one wounded.
 The ministry said several hundred" communist troops were killed.

very foundations before near record crowds Friday and Sat- nrday nights in a basketball classic that provided cause for near heart failure to many. The local Indian club was at it's utmost best and looked sharp est since the 1850 season in churning it's way to impressive wins over the highly touted Ret chikan Rockets 53-46 and 84-62.
 It may not be sound basket ball, but perhaps it might be a good idea if Southeastern foes of the local Scarlet and White horde would quit melting the Indian club lto furious heights by scoring first,
 On Friday night, before a highly partisan throng, Ketchi kan had the effrontry of get- ting the Silihans down, 40, only to be tranpled by the white shirted Sitkans in the waning moments of the game. The Rock cts tried it again on Saturday and got smacked in great 3rd quarter point making splurge by the local club.
 The Rockes s made the unhap py mistake of trying to keep pace with the fast stepping ANB Clan which ran like the team of old. In both games, .he Rockets hung tough but ran out of gas in the closing mom- ents.
 ] A less courageous contingent han the Rockets might have gone quietly, but that isn't the way with the Ketchikan -Sitka ANB games. Unsurpassed for rivalry and color, the weekend series was basketball at it's best and provided thrill-a-minute.
 The ball hawking artistry & great all-around play of Herb Didrickson caught the fancy of many. A demon on the boards, l Didrickson was at his best in executing several spectacular tip-in baskets on passes from Roger Lang.
 Herman LudWigsun was the l workhorse for the Rockets and his terrific bombardment of the hoop in the opening mom- ents of the wind-up of the two game series was something to behold. A terrific clutch player when the chips are down, Lud- wigsun has long been one of the bright spots on the Ketchi- kan roster.
 In their venture to shatter all legends of the AINB invin- cibility on Friday night, the Rockets were ground under the ANB advance in a close but de- cisive 58-45 contest.
 The final score is misleading as it wasn't until the closing moments that the local quint was able to pull away for good The local club had some an xious moments Friday, drop ping into the hoop a ball that wouldn't stay in. Didrickson finally squeezed one through to break the ice. Trailing 5-7, the Rockets brought the house ] down, taking 22-21 halftime lead after exhibiting some fan cy shooting.
 The third quarter brought plenty of excitement as Ever cit Williams, former Edge cuanbe ace, entered the game for the firss time, breaking it wide open with a 12 point splurge Going into the final quarter with 40-35 lead, the Tribe took it's biggest lead mo- ments later at 46-40. From then on, the ANB clan went into it's fire horse s.yle that proved

 The amazing shooting exhi- bition put on by the Rockets in the second game was noth- ing short of spectacular. Lud- wigsun and Martinson fired six time without a miss with Jim Auger and J. Johanson al- so getting in on the act. The ANB kept pace at 2O2O at quarters end. Ludwlgsun con- tinued his scoring spree in the second while Harry Lang was storning the hoop with some fancy hook shooting. Moses Johnson also got busy and J. J. Mackey took up the slack for the Rockets with 3 tip-ins. Halftime score saw the Sitkans holding a slim 38-37 margin. Ludwigsun and H. Lang each had IA poin,s while Johnson was right behind with 12.
 Another great third quarter drive by the ANB, engineered by Harry and Roger Lang, Didrickson, Johnson and Ever ett Williams, was all the local Y Tribe needed to take the driv- | er's seat for good.
 | Harry Lang had a great night and showed 25 points for his efforts. Johnson had 20 and Didrickson lbagged 17.
