Weary, Damp

A weary, damp band of
pacifists entered the District on
foot today, completing the last
leg of winding, transconti-
mental Walk for Peace" which
has taken them $500 miles.
About Is of the mixers, in
cluding eight women, crossed
the District line this morning
bound for the Pentagon, where
they hope to persuade the Joint
Chiefs of Staff that war should
be renounced.
Marching across the country,
the peace walkers slept in
churches and passed out paci-
fist literature. The number of

dropped out and others joined
the line.
The Committee for Nom
Violent Action, which spon-
sored the walk, announced the
mixers would pass by the White
House today with a letter for

their program for peace"
Wilmer Young, a 73-year-old
Quaker, joined the march in

Committee officials said that

Cecil King, a stout, gray

bundle of contradictions. He
admits that he has a monop-
oily of magazines and some
news media in Britain, but
supports the Labor Party. He
considers himself a highbrow
who loves antiques and old
conis, but supports sensation
alism in his newspapers. He
talks freely about himself, but
seems to like the illusion that
he's the shadowy figure" in
British journalism.

SIP Million Lost To State Yearly
 Says Sen. Logan

SIP, 100000, described as escape money" goes out of the State by fishermen other than Alaskan resi- dents, according to figures quoted by Sen. Bob Logan, who spoke to the Chamber of Commerce group at its meeting Thursday noon in the Town Club.
 In contrast, Logan said, $7,300,- 900 remains in Alaska with resi- dent fishermen. Much of the SIP million, he said, is not touchable by taxes or other means. 'We will not rule out the outside fishermen" ," Logan stated, because that would be contrary to the constitution. But," he said, there is no State that has a greater escapement from it's natural products than Alaska. He thought the question should be given further study
 Logan also commented on the artificial spawn bed experiment that is being started in the Ketchi- kan area. He said this method of building up the fisheries offered considerable promise, and urged the Chamber here to send informa- tion on the project to the Alaskan delegation in Washington, D. C., seeking their support for federal aid for such program.
 Sen. Logan said salmon fry mor- tality in streams was high with an 899o drop off on the spawning beds. In contrast to this, he said, the fry mortality rate in British Colum- bia stream where a spawning ex-

Tree Removal Decision Made

The removal of trees on Mill Bay Road to make way for road paving became a prime topic of conversa- tion at the City Council meeting Thursday.
 A petition was read with 150 names on it, asking the Council support in not removing the trees as planned.
 City Engineer Jim Barr spoke at length on the reasons for the re- moval of the trees. He stated in the first place the trees were on City property. He said there were only two trees involved, which, he said, would cause maintenance prob lems after the road was paved. A thirty-foot wide road is planned, which, he said, was an absolute minimum. The maintenance prob lems the City will be faced with, he said, are that of drainage, and tree roots uprooting paving. Snow re- moval, too, will be problem. Barr said: You cannot have a good street with these trees" The haz- ardous nature of the present road was emphasized.
 The City administration will ad- wise property owners involved of the true situation (i.e., only two trees involved and the narrow road) asking them to reconsider their attitude, also advising them the trees will be removed by the City at the City's expense. If op- position remained, it was stated then the City will give considera- tion to the alternative of not pay ing the street at all.

Smell In Building Battles Council

Wanted: An expert on smells.
 The problem of an odor in a downtown building received con siderable attention from the City Council at its meeting Thursday evening.
 The Frontier Shop has been troubled as far back as 1857 with a smell that becomes very pro- nounced after a heavy rain. This has been diagnosed as gasoline, gaseous, and a combination of sev- eral odors.
 Several tests have been run over a period of time in an effort to de- termine from where the cause of the smells originated. Due to the proximity of Patterson's Service Station above the shop, it was be- heved gas from the garages tanks seeped through the ground and lodged below the shop throwing off the odor.
 A "snifter" outfit will be used in further tests underground from various directions away from the shop. It is also planned to dig holes, also at various locations on all sides of the building, in an effort to de- termine the cause of the smells.

Church City
 Reach Agreement

An agreement between the City and the Russian Church here has been reached, in which an ex- change of property will be made, in order to straighten out Mission Road at the Church prior to paving.
 Four parcels of church property are involved, and a similar amount from the City.
 The City Council Thursday voted unanimous approval of the agree ment. It remains for the Metropoli- tan in New York to give approval before the exchange can be ef- fected.
 In other action, the Council ac- cepted property deeded to the City by Basil Clark. The property in question is back of the Clark resi- dence, and is practically vertical. It was deeded over to avoid paying taxes.
 Council voted approval of Naval station buses running to and from town carrying military personnel only. The buses are for personnel on liberty.
 Council referred request of Aleu- ton Broadcasting Go. for clarified ton of intent on use of land owned by the company. Request was re- ferred to the Planning Commission.

The Kodiak Bears emerged Lit tie League baseball champs for 1861, after winning over the Ko- diak Outdoorsmen Monday night by score of To
 The team, jointly sponsored by D and A, and o. Kraft & Son, took the championship by the extra in- ming route, with the score tied up in the sixth.
 Said to be the best game ever played in Kodiak, the game kept the fans on edge for the full seven innings.
 Both teams had to change pitch CTS to start the extra inning, which is according to Little League rules. In the top of the seventh, the Out doorsmen first baseman, Don Buell., was walked but was out on a fielders choice to Blake Butler, the Bears second baseman. Teddy Newman, Outdoorsmen's catcher, sent single to left that got away from David Kraft for an error, who relayed to catcher Cian0. Glen God frey was tagged out at home plate. Newman was right behind Godfrey and kept on coming for home, but was tagged by pitcher Weber who had taken the throw from Ciano after Godfrey was out.
 In the last half of the seventh with none out, right fielder for the Bears, Stuart Hickey, hit slow roller to first baseman Buell. who threw wild to second baseman Mickey Turner covering frs t. Hickey went for second on an error and Buell. recovering the ball, tossed to shortstop Richie Hutchins covering second. George Garoutte backed up second from left field but the ball got through both play CTS and rolled to the fence. Hickey went on to score and the ball game was over.
 Comment of one fan after the game, which pretty well summar- ized the feeling of most of the fans present: When they play that good its too bad they can't both win"
