BEHIND THE SCENES


Any make or model American
closed car with a steel top, all
doors must be welded or strapped
shut, bumpers, both front and rear
are compulsory but they must not
extend beyond the outside of
wheels. A fire wall must separate
the driver from the gas tank. On
most tracks four wheel brakes are
required. The cars that the Specta-
tor sees are hardly like the ones
of comparable year they might see
on the highway or car lots. Some
of them are using a 1855 motor in
1886 body, some are coupeS that
have been cut down and in some
cases the body and frames have
been shortened. Of course all glass
has been removed, some drivers
use plastic or a safety glass that
covers about half of the frame. We
don't intend to make a driver out
of the average fan, but, we would
like to give you' little insight as
to what goes on behind the scenes
of a race track.

House Debates Must or May For One Hour

JUNEAU, H-The Territorial House of Representatives had it's busiest bill-passing afternoon of the l0-day-old session Wednes- day.
 It passed three bills, including one to allow cities to arrange for and finance off-street parking. and got all wrapped up in an hour-long argument among it's 12 attorney members over a proposal to change one word in law on court procedure.
 The bill proposed that the law on procedure in criminal trials should be changed to read that after the prosecution has outlined its case at the start of the trial, the defendant or his attorney must" outline the defense. Five attorneys sponsored the bill to change the must to may"
 But before it was over the at- torneys' ranks were split, with Ray Hummer O-Anchorage), former US. attorney, leading the fight to kill the bill by indefinite postponement
 Before it was over, the existing law was. being described as bor- dering on violation of rights un- der the Fifth Amendment and US. District Judge George Folta of Juneau came in for a critical reference.
 The final vote was 20 to 4, with Hummer the one attorney against the bill
 Rep. Warren Taylor, Fairbanks attorney, brought Judge Folta's name into the discussion when he said he never had heard of any judge except Folta insisting on the defense outlining its case after the prosecutions opening. Taylor described Judge Folta as jurist who always was in prosecutors role before he went onto the bench and Taylor contended he had the prosecutors viewpoint.

Tax Collector Sued for $41,SOO on Charge of Timber Land Fraud

SAN FRANCISCO, R-The tax collector of Humboldt County, Wallace E. Martin, was sued for total of $41,8OO Wednesday in a. complaint filed in federal district court.
 The suit was brought by Violet Herman of Seattle and Frank Harris of Juneau, Alaska. Each asked $2O,0OO of Martin, alleging he defrauded them in trans action involving some timberland in the county.
 They charged that on Feb. Is, 1852, each of them sold to Martin their interest in the timberland and that Martin with intent to defraud' represented to them that the land was worthless because the timber had been destroyed by a forest fire.
 They alleged he said he wanted the land for hunting property and a site for hunting lodge. They claim they sold it to him for Sl0O each, and that he has not built a lodge on it, and that he bought it in order to cut the timber. They charge the land really was val ued' at more than $88,OOO and has more than 8,8OO,OOO board feet of commercial timber on it.

He was one of the greatest evan

one of the most authoritative the

this megillah was read IN many
south European sYnagogues on
Chanukah, as the Book of Esther
is read on Purim. Today. it is
still popular as part of the Chan
ukah liturgy among the Yemeniet
Jews.
The megillah was first printed
in an old machor published Gin

scroll and details about its origin
is found in the commentary to the
"Seder Abodat Yisrael" compiled
by Isaac ben Joseph Dow, (the
popularity known Baer Siddur).
The Scroll of the Hasmoneans is
also published in the Daily Prayer
Book of Philip (Paltiel) Birn-
baum, with an exceptionally fine
English translation. The original
Aramic text, with the Hebrew
printed side by side, is available
in the "Sefer Hamoadim Volume

express the view that the scroll
may have been written even be-
fore the Book of Maccabes.
The origin of the Chanukah
observance is given in a crisp.

(Shabats 2lb): when the Has

Greeks. they searched the Temple
and found only one cruise Of oil
which lay there untouched and
undefiled. intact with the seal Of

tanned sufficient oil for one days

wrought therein. and they lit the
