They represent in some cases, taxes levied on cars purchased here with delivery in other states. In others the persons have left the city.

State Lawmakers Accomplish Little Says Rep. Taylor

JUNEAU (P)-State lawmakers neared the one-third mark of their 60-day target date Friday with score of only three bills passed out of 195 introduced thus far in the 1861 session.
 Leaders in both parties began to prod. House Speaker Taylor warned the lower chamber Thurs day that We are running quite a bit behind in our work. If we are going to finish in 60 days, we're going to have to get these bills out of committees and get action on them. Other than the passage of a few immaterial bills, nothing has been accomplished"
 Bills which have cleared both Houses and await Gov.

 Gale Gronwald, another Corps engineer was also present at the Council meeting. He is here on a flood control study in the Aleutian Homes Willow street area. This could tie in with the small boat harbor ice condition-an acute problem here every winter
 The drainage situation is very bad in the area in question, and Gronwald was here at the request of the City Council seeking rem edy for it. Heavy rains which have no place to go except towards the downtown section, fill the culvert and ditches leading to the small boat harbor. It is this fresh water that freezes with the first cold weather.
 The engineer stated that he had not completed his study as yet, but mentioned several possibilities as remedies. From what we gathered the only drawback is the time fac

Chamber Endorses City Proposal
 To Hire PIanner

The Kodiak Area Chamber of Commerce voted to support the City in its plan to hire City plan her, at it's meeting at the Island Fountain Thursday noon.
 Hiring of the planner entails an outlay of $3,0OO by the City, and an additional $3,OOO in services of an engineer. The City planner will work with the Planning Commis- sion. A total of $12,OOO would be spent, the Federal government to furnish half of it.
 The question was raised as to whether the City would follow through in any plans laid out for Kodiak-thus justifying the outlay. It was pointed out by City Manager Poland, who was present at the meeting, that at present there is no plan, and nothing to go by, but with a plan, future improvements could be carried out in small stages, as money was available.
 The Chamber also voted to sup port the Matunuska Chamber of Commerce in its proposed legisla- tion to relocate the capital. The site proposed is to be in Western Alaska, and on State-owned land.
 The Matunuska chamber calls for the converting of capital selec- tion committee to be convened by the Governor, and composed of the Senior Senators from each Sena- torial District of the State. This committee, after advise from cap able consultants, shall select not more than three potential sites. None of these sites shall be within a radious of 30 miles of the City of Anchorage, nor within a redius of 30 miles of the City of Fair banks.
 Among other stipulationS the proposed legislation calls for a vote of the people on the sites se- lected, with actual moving of the government to the new capital city to begin not later than June l, 1868.
 The move to support the main land chamber, proposed by Jack Hinckel, passed by a small major ity.
 The Chamber members present endorsed the nomination by the Governor of Rep. Pete Deveau as a member of the North Pacific Fisheries Commission.
 George Cornelius announced that he had been informed by the Bureau of Land Management of flee in Anchorage that two lots, adjacent to the Bob Hall residence and facing Mission Road were to be released for public sale March 15.
 A hearing on the ferry system legislation is to be held in Juneau Feb. 13, it was stated by Pres. Bob Johnson, and that MT. Lowell Wakefield, who will be in Juneau at the time, has consented to sit in on the hearing and present Ko- diak's case.
 An airport dedication luncheon is planned during the King Crab Festival, followed by dedication ceremonies at the new airport, ac- cording to Pres. Johnson. All other plans for the festival are proceed ing according to schedule.

W7HAT will the American Leagues
w expansion to 10 clubs mean, in
general? What chance have the new
Washington Senators and Los Angeles
Angels of competing against the
established teams? Will the 10 hackers
of the Senators, each of whom put up
$35O,OOO, begin to get any of their
money back?
These are only few of the myriad
questions asked as the major leagues
open the 1851 season, the National
sticking to eight teams but expanding
to 10 next year and watching care
fully.
One widely-expresSed theory is
that neither Washington nor Los
Angeles can possibly beat out any of
the eight originals, not even the
Kansas City Athletics. They just
don't have enough top players"
it's said.
Another popular feeling is that
batting averages will rise because of
the extra clubs. But only for the good
batters. AS Manager Bob Scheffing of
the Detroit Tigers has stated it,
"Hitters like Rocky Colavito and Al
Kaline will benefit That's the way
it's always been-the good hitters get
fat against the weak pitchers.
"And let's face it: the pitching on
the new clubs is going to be pretty
weak"
There have been some dissenterS
on this score. Il don't think expansion
is going to help the good hitters,"
another American League executive
has stated. They may be swinging
against some pitchers who otherwise
might not be in the league, but don't
forget they'll be travelling lot more.
There'll be 162 games instead of 154,
and the trips will be longer"
Some sources wonder if a 1O-club
loop will involve a falling off in
attendance; whether fans will tire

of paying to watch couple of teams
not ready to offer stiff competition to
the older clubs. They draw attention
to the fact that a popular bOx-office
team like the Yankees will play only
nine games in each city, instead of II.
More optimistic is the feeling that
neither the Senators nor the Angels
will be any weaker than the Athletics
or Red Sox. five have so many value
less players" General Manager Ed
Doherty remarks, chidingly, why are
those established clubs coming to us
with trade offers?
do you mean they can say with
straight faces that fellows like Willie
Tasby, Gene Woodling, Bob Cerv and
Eddie Yost wouldn't be welcome on
any team in the majors?"
These questions will begin to be
answered tomorrow at Griffith Sta
dium when the White Sox will be
the first western club ever to open
a season in the Nations Capital.
Some of that imposing amount of
money it cost to bring a new franchise
to Washington will start coming back,
too. How much by October /, the end
of the season, is anybody's guess. And
the most interested are the 10 stock
holders, each holding a share
