Funny River Rood

MT. Eugene D. Smith, Secretary Kenai Peninsula Fishermen's
 Cooperative Assn. Dear Gene:
 Thank you for your letter of May g regarding the proposed Funny River Road.
 Since receiving your letter I have discussed the question with MT. Goodrich and others. At present, as you know, the Fish and Wildlife Service ob- jection is holding up work on the road.
 I can assure you, Gene, that if the objection is removed we will proceed when we are satis- fled that the road can be built with the amount of money available and that no harm will come to the spawning grounds through construction of the road.
 At present the bridge is out of the question due to it's ex- pense for which provision may not be made at this time.
 Again, Gene, thank you for your letter and keep me post ed on developments.
 Sincerely,
 William A. Egan,
 Governor.
 Since receipt of Governor Egan's letter, the Fish and Wild life Service has withdrawn it's objections to the Funny River Road and the $50, ,000 appropri- ation has been made available for eonstruetion.-Ed.)

Abandonment

Plans for o full-dresS re-
enactment Of Lincoln's first
Inauguration apparently will
have to be abandoned.
The problem is not weather,
but time, q spokesman for the
District Civil War Centennial
Commission said last night.
Earle D. Chesney, co-chair-
man Of the commission, said
there simply wasn't time ia
make the detailed preparations
necessary.
Original plans for the March
4 observance, announced last
fall, called for q parade along
Pennsylvania avenue, an adj
dress before q Joint session Of
Congress and q costume bal
as well as the re-enactment Of
the inaugural itself.
/ Mr.. Chesney said House
Speaker Sam Rayburn fell
there wasn't time for Q joint
congressional committee to pre-
pare for the Capitol phase Of
the re-enactment by March 4
The Speaker suggested that 8
full-dress ceremony be held In
four years of Lincoln's second
inaugural. the co-chairmar
added.
An observance Of the first
Lincoln inaugural probably win
be confined to a large lunch

Witness Reports
Crime; Discovers
Brother Involved

A passing citizen watched
four youths snatch two wom-
ems purses last night and then
trailed them to a nearby apart
ment house, unaware that one
Of the boys was his brother.
Detective James r. Fox of
the Juvenile Squad said the
man was driving in the 4700
block Of Third street NV.
about $3.50 pm. when he saw
the four boys attack Miss Bar
bafa A. Ramey. 81. and her
sister, Glenna, 10, Of 1888
Third street NV. The youths
escaped with their purses after
a fight in the slush.
Detective Fox said the pass
erby stopped and trailed the
youths to q nearby apartment
and then returned to give the
information to police and the
Ramey sisters.
Sixth Precinct Pvts. M. j.
Cahill and o. E. Brown went
to the apartment and arrested
the boys while the passerby
waited outside. The officers
obtained confessions and re-
covered the purses. They led
the boys, one II, one is and
two Is, out Of the building to
the street.
It was then that the sur
prised passerby recognized the
17-year-old as his brother.

number of years in high school
will be admitted. Applicants
also must be willing to that that
they intend to become teachers.
The plan, months in prepare
ton, was approved by the
school board teachers college
committee without dissent and
forwarded to the full board.
The board Is expected to adopt
it at its regular meeting next
week.
At present, admission to the
college does not depend upon
which Of the Districts four
school tracks the student fol-
lows. They are the honors
track, college preparatory, gen.
eraI and basic. The new plan,
however, would make it diff
cult-but not impossible-for a
general track pupil to gain
admission. Basic track students
would not be admitted at all.
The plan would become ef-
fective in the fall Of 1868. This
years high school seniors,
therefore, would not be af-
fected. Lower classmen would
have to take certain college pre-
paratory courses to be eligible.

act after much public and
industrial opposition arose.
District Health Director Dam
lei L. Finucane, however, to-
day said there is definitely
a smog potential in the area.
Washington has both smoke "a
man-made condition. and fog
"a meteorological condition)
which can produce one type
of smog as in London, he added.
I'm addition" he said, ''the
District under certain weather
conditions is subject to photo
chemical smog-the Los An
geles type-which results large
ly from the action Of sunlight
on motor vehicle emissions"
He said that smog levels here
become particularly hazardous
when there Is q temperature in
version-a barrier or ceiling Of
warm upper air which prevents
sufficient dilution and disper.
sion Of pollutantS.
This, he said, causes irrita-
ton to the eyes, nose, throat
and upper respiratory tract.

THIS APPROACH to reality
is best achieved by running
wires from the receiving set
to two loudspeakers, one at
each end Of the room.
Most stereophonic music
has been from stereo records
played in the home. The
stereo records are a ire
mendous improvement on the
older plain hi-fi records as
everyone who has listened to
them knows.
As I understand 1t during
the playing of a stereophonic
record the needle is getting
two tunes, one from the bot
tom of the groove and one
from the side-one may come
from the brass side Of the
orchestra, the other from the
string side.
Now what Mr.. Crosby, a
very modest man, has devel-
oped is a transmission with
two signals, one for the brass
and one for the strings, in the
same FIN channel. He says
that Mai. Edwin Armstrong
noted this possibility when he
developed FIN in 1885.
The owner of a stereo set
with two loudspeakers-will
have to purchase a multiplex
adapter for about $40.
Mr.. Crosby's is one Of six
systems to achieve the same
result, stereo FIN reception,
which are awaiting a decision
Of the FEC. We wish him
well.
And we hope the FEC soon
will authorize one Of these
systems so we can have
stereophonic music in the
home without getting up to
change the records every
hour or two.

The Superheterodyne

The year was 1928. Christ

It was a superheterodyne
radio receiver with the new

this writer aware that that

not exactly new. It was dem
onstrated here. The Federal
Communications Commission
allowed WGMS, Washington's

What is hot about it is that
the FEC is soon expected to
make a ruling that win allow
FM broadcasting to be stereo-
phonic.
Host at the luncheon was

Stereophonic reproduction
Is usually described as sound

We receive sound through
our two ears. This gives US
our sense as to where the
sound came from. In stereo
this is appropriated by

No one has ever heard me subscribe to the local fa11acy that the people on Adak are the incest people in the world. The proportion of good people and "nice" people on Adak is about the same as it is in any other place in the world.
 Adak itself is not the most pleas- ant place in the world. It has it's balance of good and bad attri ibutes, just like any other place. It is certainly no easier to leave without regret than any other place.
 There are many ordinary people in this very ordinary place who have made my stay here very pleasant and ny life very happy. To them I owe a debt of gratitude which cannot be paid with words alone. However, since my assets and talents are lim- tied, am forced to depend on mere lords.
