Francis S. C. Menager of Hoover Bay, Alaska, has been ap- }pclmcd superior of Jesuit Missions {in Northern Alaska to succeed the |late Rev. Philip I. Delon, who was {killed with Father William Walsh ‘and Pilot Ralph Wein when the airplane Marquette Missionary crashed at Kotzebue last fall. The appointment was announced at San | Jose, Cal., by the Rev. Joseph M. Fiet, provincial of the Jesuit prov- ince of California, which has juris- diction over Alaska, and was com- municated today to The Alaska Daily Empire by The Associated Press. Father 8. C. Menager has been connected with the Jesuit mission in Northern Alaska for a little more than two years. He has never been in Juneau, having entered his field by way of St. Michael and having been ccntinuously occupied with his duties since he assumed them. The superior’s two brothers, Ed- ward and Gabriel are well known in this city. On two occasions, for rather brief periods, Father Fran- cis Menager was stationed hera.
