Blodgett Charges "Skulduggery"
 In Ferry Road Bonding Issue

IilllJee, SdlU.
 "If there was any premeditated skulduggery connected with any of the bonding propositions, Blod gett had as much to do with it as anyone because he was a mem Der of the Finance Committee which drafted them.
 "The governor has taken a hands-off attitude regarding the mplementation of the bond issues. The Nome Road with which Blodgett is so much con- cerned is not even a road system that would entitle it to matching funds"
 Egan said he had recommended against using the $5 million for road construction at this time be- cause the state had already com mitted it's federal highway aid matching funds.
 'Why should we spend this $5 million now and get 7-10 miles of road out of it, when we can wait dllo SCI SOlilS pOO-PiO lilllllOi1 III federal matching funds later?" Egan asked.
 McNees and Hopson Comment
 Two senators from the North western District, John McNees and Eben Hopson commented in joint statement:
 Much has already been said, some of it wrongly so, as to the position of the Northwestern leg islators on the various bonding measures under the considera- ton by the Legislature
 "Much pressure has been placed on us from a wide variety of sources and in many ways - threats have frequently been made, both by proponents of the bonding program as well as the opponents.
 "The reason that the ice bloc has been singled out for pressure is that it very likely holds the hinge vote in either or both Houses of the Legislature on many of the issues involved. Furthermore, we intend to take advantage of that position to see that the intent of the 1860 Legis- lature and the Joint Finance Committees of that session is car ried out. That, and no more than that, is our position"
 McNees and Hopson said the intent was that the $5 million be spent, along with federal match ing monies on 19-1 ratio, for con- struction of the Fairbanks-Nome Road.
 "We are morally certain" they said, "that this was the intent of the Joint Finance Committee, the 1860 Legislature and all of the people of Alaska in voting for it.
 'We feel our claim is just, moral and a legal one, and we are disappointed that we are not getting the full backing of the administration in carrying it out" Anchorage Area Cut Out
 Rep. Bennie Leonard of An chorage, asked to comment on Blodgett's statement, said:
 "If MT. Blodgett feels that Northwestern Alaska might be cut out of the bonding issues, l ask him to look at the Anchor age area, where 42 per cent of the state taxes originate, and see how that area has fared in this road program, or any of the other bonding issues.
 "It saddens us all to see the Vocational School being vote traded to Nome for the Ferry Bond issue. This is another case of legislation by the Democratic party caucus"

If the causative factors ofcer-,

ducing these special defending

tibodies) will be ready to des-
troy the invaders or to nullify
their poisonous products. The
particular disease will not de-
velop. This introduction of a
harmless product into the body
to achieve protection against a
particular infectious disease is
called artificial immunization.
The diseases against which
children are routinely immunized
are diphtheria. whooping cough,
lockjaw, smallpox and polio.
Thanks to preventive measures,
smallpox Is very rare in this
country. In fact, many doctors
have never seen a case. Diph-
iberia Is not frequently seen
and 1t seems certain that polio
will become as rare as diph-
iberia.
Whooping cough is especially
severe in infants, who are born
with no amount of defense against
this serious disease. 1t is chief
ly for this reason that immu-
nization procedures should be
started in the first few weeks of
life.
The projection afforded by ar
tificial immunization tends to
decrease with time. 1t is for
this reason that booster shots
are given at certain intervals.
These shots boost" the level
of antibodies so that a sufficient
amount will be present in the
body to effectively act against
the invading germ of the par
ticular infectious disease.

smelled ocean fresh. A faint
mist clung to the golden sphere
which hovered above. A few fish
ing ships were returning from
a short trip as the face of the
morning flashed across the hor-
iZon.
Our hotel was situated on Rue
Duarte. An ancient streetcar
swayed on it's tracks on one side
of us as we crossed the narrow
street. The people climbed
aboard while the vehicle contin-
ued to move slowly forward. We
decided to walk to the drugstore.
Our halting attempts to make
ourselves understood by saying
some Spanish words must have
confused the Porngest sotre-
keepers. Finally after a half
dozen stops, we found the phar-
macy. The pharmacist knew some
English and we made few pur-
chases.
We hailed a taxi and toured the
city for two hours. The Portu-
gese are proud of the Avenida da
Liberade just as the French are
proud of the Champs Elysees.
In it's center stand an obelisk
built as a symbol of Portugal's

Square and the beautiful street
goes northward to the Edward
VII Park.
The driver took us to old
Lisbon which was untouched by
the great earthquake in l755.
We we're able to get a close
look at the famous landmark the
Castle of St. George which we
had viewed at adistance from our
hotel window.
This castle is one of the old
est buildings in Europe. 1t served
as bastion for the Goths, Ro-
mans and Moors. Portuguese kings
lived in ii. Now it looks like a
product of the time machine that
went backward to the Middle
Ages. I expected to see swarthy
Moors shooting arrows at knights
in shining armor.
My husband halted the tour with
a motion toward a restaurant.
We again sampled some excel
lent food including soup, salad,
beefsteak and other dishes. Ed
ate anchovies plus his regular
courses. I wondered If he would
ever have enough seafood.
The afternoon passed quickly.
1t seemed that our trip was
drawing to an end as the sun
started to set. We walked around
the streets and mingled with the
crowds of people who we're doing
the same things that everyone
does in any other country--they
were bound homeward from work.
Some had bags of groceries,
others we're carrying umbrellas.
Many buildings have exquisite
tilework outside and inside. Por-
tugese architecture is mixture
of Moorish and Gothic, a rare
combination. We saw two of the
finest examples of this combina-
tion at the Tower of Belem and
the Cathedral of Lisbon, called
The Sc Patricarcal.
The people in Lisbon repre-
sent a great mixture from Spain,
Great Britain, France, Germany
and Brazil. The native Portu-
gese are darker than the Span
iards. Many show traces of as
similation with the Moors and
other African groups.

Of big league baseball, has ex-
panded to 10 teams with the
addition Of Chicago and Pitts
burgh. But NBA President
Maurice Podoloff is taking
nothing for granted as far as
the situation in Pittsburgh is
concerned.

and he'll have to move fast in
so many directions" The off,
cial refused to be identified.
Harris moved fast in another
direction late last night when
he thought he had lined up

team. However, this was later
denied vehemently by Shar-
man and Walter Brown. pres

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va,
Jan. 18.-Other than its habit
Of losing, the Virginia football
team inherited by Bill Elias as
the new head coach can be
tabled as prospectively very
good.
And the bubbling, optimistic
Elias may be just the man to
reverse Virginia's losing ways.
Such was the case last season
when his own confidence rubbed
off on his assistant coaches and
players at George Washington.
the team he left yesterday to
take over with the Cavaliers.
Virginia, which lost all 10
games as part of its record
tying string of % defeats, had
only two seniors in its starting
lineup, and many Of the re-
turning players are bright pros
poets indeed.
The Cavaliers have a fair
crop Of interior linemen, most
Of them of good size. and at
end they have Joe Kehoe, who
as a sophomore last season
caught "a passes. He was the
No. 2 pass catcher in the At
lantic Coast Conference, behind
Tee Moorman. Dukes star end.
Kehoe is a 6-foot-2, 1885,
FOUNDER from New Jersey.
The only players who will be
missing from last seasons start
ing lineup will be Fullback Fred
Shepherd, the conferences S
leading ground gamer, and
Guard John NARROW, a 220-

Other than Shepherd. the

Cuozzo completed 40 Of 10S
passes last year. He was ALI
State for two years in high
school in New Jersey, and one
scout from q Virginia opponent
last year said he has "all the
moves to become a great quar-
terhack.".
OF the linemen, Ron Gassert,
q 235-pound tackle from New
Jersey, appears the best. He
probably could be a starter on
any Of the ACC elevens. Also
prospectively good are such
other linemen as Bill Kanto,
225 pounds; Emory Thomas,
205; Turnkey Todd, 215, and
Henry Moran. 210.
On the minus side, Virginia's
freshman crop last year could
be regarded as below par, and
the frosh eleven didn't win q
game. However, with so many
sophomores left over from last
fall. Elias should be in position
to bridge the gap.-HUBER.
