Mr. Dove has been working for sometime in Texas, studying para- sitic diseases affecting the livestock industry in that State. Director Paul G. Redington of the Biological Survey recommended him for the Alaska undertaking, saying he was one of the bureau's most highly qualified men and fitted both by training and experience for the in- vestigation here. The etomologist will leave Dal- las, Tex., June 3, for Seattle. He will come here for a conference with Gov. Parks and Commissioner Charles H. Flory, of the Depart- ment of Agriculture, and later go to Fairbanks to discuss the work he is to do with Lawrence J. Palm- er, in charge of the reindeer experi- ment station at the Alaska Agri- cultural College and School of Mines. Mr. Palmer made some reindeer investigations a few years ago for the Biological Survey. From Fairbanks Mr. Dove will proceed to the Seward Peninsula, going via the Yukon River districts where reindeer growing is estab- lished. He will look over these herds then go to Nome to begin his study of the large herds in that part of the Territory. He will make his headquarters in Nome while he is engaged in the investi- gations. e LET Amnquist Press Your Suit We call and deliver.

Fifteen of he 46 cars entered are of that type. | Proponent the front-drive car re it is the ideal type for the sharp turns of the speed- y, eliminating or holding to a minimum, the skidding and loss of ipeed. Then a driver may safely pile into the turns without shut-| ting off his gas. In fact he must do it to stay in the race. Those who favor the rear drive noint out that all the winners have been of that type. The new type machine, they claim, is too delicate to stand the gruelling 500 miles. Only a few of the old-timers of the game are on the track this year. Leon Duray is one of the veterans among youngste! So is CIff Durant, the millionaire driver. Of the younger school will be Louis Meyer, 1928 winner; Tony Gullotta, who had the race in the sack last year until his gas tank cracked; Lou Moore, and Peter De- Paolo, the 1925 winner. Norman Batten, who thrilled the crowd two years ago when he brought his flaming machine to the pit, himself seriously injured, will be absent. So will be Earl De Vore.

He washed his face and head in the water from the creek then carried him across the basin to the Alaska Juneau mess hall where Frank Herrmann, stew- ard, applied first aid.
