COMING: FAMILY AIR FARES

At least airline will initiate first Tn the field of air travel this fal when family fares offered the public.
 The air fares will be offered on transatlantic nally and unusual savings will be offered to the head of household if he takes members of his family For example the head of the family cap fly to Europe for full fare and his wife and other members of his family can go along for $500 less per passenger additional frstclass tickets and $2OO less additional tourist class tickets.
 The saving in the case of with wife and two children would amount to either $500 $500 and is considerable saving. Such saving will induce more and more travellers to take to the airanes their trips to Europe
 The new company recently completed it's $5O,OOOth Atlantic crossing
 The new family fares are indication of increas- g passenger volume in the air and also continuation of the trend toward lower fares for transatlantic flights One can remember when round-trip flight to Europe cost almost 000 In the last decade prices have come down steadily until ofseason rates now allow tourists to 20 to Europe and back for less than $500 The new family fare will allow to take his wife to Europe and back for less than $75O and perhaps less than that In other words the cost for two about what the cost for one was about decade ago.

of the US. has survived these many years because, for the most part, the men who met at Phila- delphia 166 years ago made no effort to write into the document minutiae better left to the dis cretion of the legislative and ex- ecutive branches. They produced an organic law capable of being flexibly interpreted to meet the demands of a growing society.
 The fundamentals of the Alaska constitution can De divided into two categories: CD the fundamen- tals of principle and, (2), the fun damentals of organization.
 Under the fundamentals of prin- ciple can be listed such concepts as the belief in popular sovereign tY-the idea that all governmental power comes from the people. The Alaska Constitution should also be based on the concept of limited government. so fundamental to democratic thought, that govern mental officials should be held to strict account for their actions; the belief that certain civil rights are protected from interference on the part of governmental auth ority. A Bill of Rights is a tradi- tional American constitutional ex- pression of this idea.
 There will be agreement on the American concept of the separa- tion of powers, the division of governmental authority among legislature, executive, and judic- iary, to the end that all govern ment power never be concentrat- ed in the hands of one branch. The principle of checks and bal ances will be incorporated into the Alaska organic law, in order that each branch may check the other.
 Having established the funda- mentals of principle, the Alaska Constitution should establish, in broad outline. the fundamentals of government organization. The document should create the three branches of government and con- fer on them their powers.
 Constitution a Brief Document
 Agreement by the citizens ot Alaska that their Constitution shall contain only fundamentals will result in a document notable for brevity. The national Consti- tuition contains scarcely 5000 words, in contrast to the book length" documents of California (72,OOO words) and Louisiana (65,- 900 words). The average WOrdage for state constitutions today is around 15,O0O.

Alaska stands on the threshold of great and significant event. A Constitutional Convention, to write what will very probably be the last constitution for new member of the American Union, will convene at College on Nov. 8 of this year. Its purpose is to write fundamental law for this part of America which is of such supreme importance to our na- tions destiny, now a land of po- tentialities
 The spirit and inventiveness AL aska citizens have demonstrated for 88 years, combined with the knowledge of over a century and a half of American governmental tradition and practice, should re- suit in an organic law of the high est order for the prospective state.
 This constitution will first be submitted to the voters of Alaska for approval. If they ratify it, the Constitution will then be present ed to the Congress of the United States which will be requested to accept it, thus admitting Alaska to full partnership in the Union.
 The Constitution and
 Modern State Government
 In the broad sense, a constitu- ton sets out the general rules under which the activities of gov ernment are conducted and limit ed. The document is an agreement by the people on the broad prin- ciples under which they order their individual conduct to make possible enjoyment of the benefits of an organized society. Thus in 1789 the American people estab- lished the Constitution of the Uni ted States, a document which is today the oldest written conStitu- ton in the world.
 The American Union is a federal organization. Under this principle we have not only the national Constitution, but each of the states which comprise that Union also have established constitutions which grant powers to state gov ernmentS and limit those govern ments. These state constitutions perform a vital role in American society, for the national govern ment has only those powers grant ed to it by the national constitu- ton. To the states is left a vast amount of governmental author ity; state constitutions establish the legal boundaries within which that authority must be exercised

more in need of amendment it seems to be. The California Con- stitution was amended 343 times from 1880 to 1940, with many more amendments adopted since 1940l The Louisiana Constitution has been amended scores of times.
 Underlying the demand for de- tail has been a popular distrust of legislative bodies and a tendency to assume that economic and so- cial problems require constitu- tional solution Gan assumption amply disproved by experience on the national leveD.
 If the delegates are wise and profit by the accumulated exper- fence of other states, they will re- sist the temptation to clutter the constitution with legislative en- actment The incorporation of un- necessary detail may seriously hamper Alaska's growth.

After 5 Y ears,
Pirates Regain
Travelling Trophy

BlufftOn high schools Pirates,
whose stirring victory over the
heretofore unbeaten BellefOntaine
Chieftains surprised nearly every
body, also enabled them to take
possession of the Western Buck
eye Leagues travelling trophy.
The trophy, which stands about
IA inches high, goes to a team
in the WBL which defeats the
team holding the trophy. Belle
fontaine had taken over the
trophy by beating Van Vert in
basketball and the Cougars copped
it from Shawnee in football.
Should Van Vert defeat the
Pirates in their basketball game
February IL they would regain
possession of the trophy. The
Pirates last held the prize in 1850
when they took it from the Celina
Bulldogs on the gridirOn. The
following week st. Marys got it
from the Pirates.
The trophy is sponsored by the
Lima City Loan.

Buckeye League mark going into the
fray, the Logan county crew rated as
heavy favorites to make the Pirates
their 11th straig ight victims. Coach
Joe Harris and his squad had other
ideas.
Realizing the only way to defeat
the Chieftains was to stop their high
scoring center, George, who had gone
into the game with 1872 per game
average, Harris devised triangular
type zone defense which kept two
men on the wiry Negro sharpshooter
and the strategy worked. He was
held to II points, his lowest total of
the season.
All of the Pirates were instru-
mental in the upset of the Chieftains.
Four of the five, players in the con-
test hit in the double figures, still
most of the credit belongs to Jack
Fields, Jim Motter and Joe Urich.
Fields and Matter, who in addition
to collecting Is and 10 points re-
spectively, time and again broke up
passes intended. for George and stole
rebound after rebound during the
contest. So good was their work at
checking the Chieftain star that he
failed to hit from the field until mid
way through the fourth period. Five
of his total came on free throws, all
in the first half
To Urich goes much credit for the
Pirates victory. More than once
when the Pirates appeared to be 60
ing to attempt to run with the Chief
tains-which is just what they would
have liked-the SO sophomore set
tied them down and kept them in
their deliberate forcing game. 1t
payed off. The defense never became
ratified nor lost Sight of the chal-
lenge at hand,
Right behind Fields in the scoring
parade was jim Berry, who hit Ia
points for the might, and most of
them when they were needed most,
and Matter and Urich with 10 each.
Lora, the fifth man in the lineup, hit
for 5.
Of the 45 points registered by the
Chieftains George and 6-3 Senior Pat
Carey garnered 90 of them. So press
ing was the Pirate defense that the
visitors could tally only ID points in
the first half and they left the floor
at the intermission trailing 1914.
The victory was the 18th in IA out
ings for the Pirates and their fourth
WBL victory against two defeats.
The defeat was the first for the
Chieftains in IL starts and their first
in the WBL and gave the unbeaten
st. Marys Roughriders, 1867 victors
over Shawnee, undisputed possession
of first place in the league. 1t also
set up a natural for the Bellefontaine-
st. Marys game this week on the
court

But the big star of the Tigers lair
is Ned Mikalovic, Ga, who was on the
receiving end of Baney's aerials as
the Tigers marched through nine con-
secutive fdes on the gridiron. Early
in the season he was averaging near
ly 30 points a contest.
Coach joe Harris, still elated over
the Bcllefohtaine scalp, feels that the
contest will be one of the toughest of
