Television, baseball, and a com petitive price war on bread have made big hit with the people of Galena, according to Edgar Paddy Noliner, Jr., president of the Ga lena village council.
 Nollner, a delegate at the recent Panama Indian Conference, said his people used to go to movies at the nearby Air Force station, but said since the military started a televi- sion station that 18 TV sets have been purchased by villagers.
 '.Now we stay home and every body watches programs at night" said Nollner.
 Nollner went on to explain that one set had been purchased by the Vernetti's at Koyukuk and that the people there were able to receive the television. Besides television, Nollner said baseball had become very popular with the people.

Bookshelf Cun Help Villages to Start Libruries

 May 20, 1863
 Dear Mrs. Post:
 We are about to write to Guy Okakuk of the Tundra Times for help in contracting areas in Alaska (especially Eskimo and Indian con- munities) that could use our help in starting, or replenishing, a li- brary. What happy coincidence to find, in my May 9th issue of the Times, your letter describing your efforts to provide Noorvik with a library.
 Operation Bookshelf is a 1OOeS volunteer service (please read the enclosed folder) collecting and dis tributing books to libraries or in- stitutions wishing to start libraries E- at no exepense whatsoever to the recipient! We have a special U. S. Post Office rate, and through the generosity of interested indi- viduals and other organizations = and an occasional benefit to raise money can handle our shipping expenses. We have shipped thou sands of volumes throughout the U. s. and Possessions and many for eign countries - but would prefer to serve this country first We know there are areas needing our help - the difficulty is in making contacts from this distance!
 We have hundreds of books to choose from exactly what the recipient requests. Some books are new tpublishers' surplus), most ars used but in good condition fron estate libraries, individuals, school etc).
 If we can help you, please sent us list of your needs and the mum Der of books you have space fo and we will go to work putin! the right book in the right place. Sincerely yours,

team - all playing a schedule to arrive at the championship.
 We usually play at the military base because cur village is pretty close to the river and the home run hitters knock the ball over the bank" Nollner said.
 Good Relationship
 Nollner said the village had a very good relationship with the military bases and that the mili- tary had helped them a great deal. He said they were particularly help ful during the recent flood and that the council was sending spe- cial letter of appreciation to the helicopter pilots.
 The other most appealing develop ment at Galena, acofding to Noll- ner, was the recent starting of two more stores and the resultant free enterprise competition. When we had only one store, bread was 75 cents loaf. Then one store lowered the price to, 65 cents a loaf. Now one of the stores has reduced it down to 45 cents a loaf.'
 We are very happy with the competition because it means low CT prices for us," Nollner said.
 Village Site Erodinp
 The greatest problem facing the village, according to Nollner. is the chewing away of the village by the Yukon River. p
 Galena, with population of 200. IS located between the river and a huge dike that has been construct ed to protect Galena Air Force Station. Each year houses must be moved from the edge of the bank as more and more of it caves in.
 Since the ice went out this year 10 to 15 feet of the bank has erod- ed. Last year 50 to 60 feet caved in. And since Galena was estab- lished in 1920 about 200 feet or more of the bank has been nibbled away.
 Plans To Move
 Nollner said the village had de- c1ded to move to one of three loca- tions, either right behind the Air Force Station, a place near Low len about 10 miles upstream from Galena, or to Beaver Creek, 6 miles upstream from Galena.
 We hope to be able to move next year. We wanted to move this year but there are many problems and it isn't so easy"
 Nollner pointed out that they have new school there, just built three years ago. Last year the state and BIA schools were consolidated. Presently the schools house grades one through ten.
 Galena has two churches, a Ca tholic Church and Church of God.
 The population or the village has increased each year. People have moved there from Kaltag, Koyu- kuk, Ruby, and Fairbanks.
 Critical Unemployment
 Another problem faced by the vil- lage is unemployment. Formerly a large number of men were employ ed as longshoremen on the barges. This year only about 4 or men are to be hired for these jobs, Noll- ner said.
 The members of the Galena coun- cil, besides Nollner, are: Robert Demoski, Jimmy Malemute, Peter Webb Demoski, Vinson Yaska, and Floyd Green.

Selection Of Sample

LIE Vi I1IOoC UuOA-
nessmen and individuals to be
interviewed was made, for the
most part, from information
supplied by the Chambers OF
Commerce. From among the
membership of these organiza-
tons we selected a representa-
tive cross-section Of business
men in the three communities.
Those selected to be inter-
viewed in the three commune
ties included, but was not
limited to, both large and
small retail stores, auto deal
ers, real estate agents and
developers, manufacturers,
hotel managers and appliance
dealers. In addition, a certain
number Of random interviews
were conducted, that is, inn
promptu visits with merchants
whose names did not appear on
any lists submitted to US. In
each community we visited
with the officials Of the COM
mercial banks, and in Chris
tiansted, we interviewed the
president Of the savings bank.
We believe that the sample
selected represents a fair cross
section of the communities
covered by the survey.
Results Of Interviews
The consensus Of those inter-
viewed was that substantial
progress had been made by
the commercial banks in serv-
ing the banking needs Of the
islands and that banking SER
vices are adequate at the
present time. A small minority
voiced the opinion that addi-
tional banking facilities would
be helpful.
In the opinion of many peo-
pie the real improvement in
banking in the Virgin Islands
flowed from increased compe-
tition resulting from the en-
trance of The Chase Manhat-
tan Bank, by merger, and the
indirect enrtnce of The First

CHICAGO, Feb. 10 AP).-The grain
futures market was rather choppy this
week as spectators took virtual COM

trends. Net changes were both above
and below a week ago.
Wheat and new crop soybeans ended
the period with moderate losses. Other
commodities were mostly higher. In
nearly every instance, the trend was in
the opposite direction Of a week ago.
Spectators appeared to have swung a
little more to the long side of those
contracts which had been in retreat and
cashed profits In those which seemed
TO have exhausted their buying support.
