barbs at the school administra-

gap between the colored and
white pupils, and at testimony
that the gap caught the school
system by surprise.
Mr.. Gerber asked Mr.. Cantrell:

I'D hate to say we weren't on

Don't you think the SUPER

Mr.. Gerber pursued, should

schools?"
II don't think there was any
way to find out all the problems
without experiencing them" Mr.
Cantrell replied.

tests" Mr.. Gerber interjected
Mr.. Cantrell agreed to this. But

Il think the individual schools

 Holton, Ciddinqs Guests Of U. $.

Donald w. Holton, second member of the Committee for Honest Unions appeared before City Mag istrate Hubert Gilbert Friday mor- ming and talked himself right into an extra 30 days in the city jail. The other member, Homer Gid- dings, is presently serving 60 days for petty larceny and disorderly conduct.
 Holton pleaded not guilty to charges of disorderly conduct and made his own defense. He was sen- fenced to $500 fine and 30 days in jail. Holton appealed and bond was set at $500. Holton kept right on talking so the judge stated that in addition to the above punishment Holton should serve 30 day jail suspended sentence on like charge made last month. The two 30-day confinement periods are to run con- secutively.
 Gilbert prefaced the sentencing by saying that Holton's plea of carrying gun in self defense would not stand up, inasmuch as it seemed apparent that he had brought ill feeling. toward him. self.

Former Yukon
 Waiter Returns After 36 Years

James B. Hukill. who was a waiter on Capt. McCann's table aboard the steamer Yukon in 1920, returned to Fairbanks last week af- ter 36 years, nearly flabbergasted at the amount of progress that has taken place here.
 But. he adds jokingly. Perhaps progress isn't the word for it. A glass of milk still costs two bits"
 Hukill still remembers all the fun the crew had that summer, mak- ing seven round trips between Daw- son and Fairbanks. Bert Newcomb was pilot on the old ship, which might have made one trip too many: Hukill recalls bleaching the boat along the Panama in mid-Oc- tober. when large chucks of ice were already gushing down the riv- CT. Later they had to cross that river in small boat, hair-raising experience he'll never forget
 Hukill, who was born in Skagway in the early days, came north in 1854 to visit his mother. who still makes her home there Although he now lives in San Francisco, he was asked to become the Alaska sales representative for Zone Heavy Duty Roof Coating company.
 After his arrival last Monday he began a full scale search for the Nordale hotel, which had somehow disappeared from location on First avenue. He noticed other changes too, and never did quite get used to the illustration of having to walk in the back door" of the Model Cafe.
 Until he left for Whitehorse Mon- day, Hukill enjoyed looking up the old friends he had made here. and seeing what changes 36 years have wrought in the small town he once knew.
