Legislators Told
 What Tourists Expect In Alaska

JUNEAU LR - Members of the Legislature got a rundown yes terday on what the average tour ist wants and expects in trip to Alaska.
 The joint House and Senate Committees on State Affairs and Resources heard a report on the results of a tourism questionaire distributed by the Arthur D. Lit tie Co.,, business research con- Sultants.
 A representative of the firm, Peter Stern, told the committees that Alaska must develop a policy to increase highway travel in and to Alaska as a means of broaden ing the base of tourism.
 Along the same line, Stern said, the proposed state ferry system must have runs scheduled so the greatest benefit to tourism can be derived.
 He urged that state agencies make an effort to develop tourist facilities and historical sites, and keep close statistics for the plan ming of promotion and capital in- VestmentS.
 Stern said 2,340 responses tabu- lated from 7,600 questionaires sent out late last year showed that the improvements most de- sired by prospective tourists to Alaska were the complete paving of the Alaska Highway and req sonably priced accommodations.
 In response to question as to why they would want to visit Alaska, 79 per cent listed scenery and the wilderness experience; 51 per cent, uncrowded outdoors; 32 per cent, adventure of the last frontier; IT per cent, travel north of the Arctic Circle; and Is per cent, meeting and visiting with the natives.

l4-Year-Old Boy Admits Shooting Anchorage Woman

ANCHORAGE R - A 14-year- old Mountain View boy has con- fessed the ambush murder of Mrs. Francella Goodness March 1.
 Although the boy is being held in juvenile detention he cannot be tried for the crime, under state law. Authorities are also withholding the boys name.
 City police said the case broke late Wednesday night when the youth tried to trade the murder weapon, .38 caliber revolver he had stolen at Caribou's Depart ment Store. The gun department manager stalled the boy and a companion until the police could be called.
 In lengthy statement, the youth told how he stole the gun in house burglary and hid it in the back yard of his home be- fore and after the shooting.
 He said Mrs. Goodness cursed him and cast a racial slur while berating him for throwing chunk of ice at one of her dogs. The ice was thrown, the boy claim ed, to ward off a possible attack by the dog which lunged against the woman's yard gate as he rode past on his bicycle.
 The name calling preyed on his mind for several days before he decided to use the gun to kill the dog, the boy told police. He shot the woman instead, when didn't see the dog in the yard, police quoted the boy as saying.

Earlier, Auerbach had said he was
mostly lucky in the college draft. He wasn't
just lucky in landing Russell. The Celts
only had the sixth choice in Sc and so Red
asked Rochester, which had No. l. if their
