THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, OCT. 26, 1931. WATCHMANFROM FUNTER BAY IS SHOT IN FOOT Fred Patricfiox Ranch- er, Charged with Shoot- ing with Intent to Kill Suffering from a wound in !hel left foot, Harold Tipton, a watch- I man at the Alaska Pacific Salmon | Corporation’s cannery at Funter Bay, was brought here Sunday for | medical treatment. He is alleged to have been shot by Fred Patrick, a fox rancher, as the aftermath of a homebrew celebration. Tipton was not seriously injured. Four bones were broken in his foot, but he was able to be nui today on crutches. A warrani was Issuca Sunday by Judge Charles Sey, charging Pat-| rick with shooting with intent to| kill. United States Deputy Mar- shals W. E. Feero and Frank Price left yesterday for Funter Bay to arrest Patrick and were expected ¢o return sometime today. Tipton and Patrick, acording lo) reports received here, were two of a small gathering in Funter Bay Saturday night at which the bowl flowed freely. The latter is said to have threatened Tipton for some unstated cause. He had a gun which he flourished early in the evening but members of t,hcl party took it away from him. Later e obtained possession of it again| and proceeded to try to put his| threats into execution. His Zirst shot was wild. Tipton, having in mind that dis- | cretion is the better part of valor, concluded it was time for him to leave, headed for the door. As he| went through it, Patrick is alleged | %o have fired a second shot which | found its mark in the ball of Tip- ton's left foot. The latter kept | going. In his version as given to local officers, he said he was told that Patrick fired three more shots | before subsiding, but he didn't even hear them. Tipton was brought here on the power troller, Cub, and taken to, St. Ann’s Hospital for treatment. | An X-ray examination showed four, bones to be broken. ——————— These pictures were made at the trade.

Here- tofore, the Chamber has been hold- ing its sessions on Thursdays, and the change was authorized last week. At tomorrow's meeting the Exec- | utive Board will have a report to make on the Chamber's attitude to- ward the projected sale of thel United States Signal Corps’ cable, | land telegraph and wireless tele-| graph system. Information recently | reaching the Chamber said the Administration would seek Con- gressional authority for the sale at the coming session. It is expected Juneau will head a movement in opposition to this. Last year, when it was first pro- posed to sell the system to private | interests, a vigorous protest from the local Chamber was heartily supported by all other Alaska com- munities. A similar movement will be renewed at this time, said. SCHOOL BUILDINGS, CENTURY OLD, MADE INTO APARTMENTS BATON ROUGE, La, Oct. 26— ‘The classic old Pentagon buildings ¢l the Louisiana State university over which flags of five nations have flown are to enter a new era of usefulness. The massive cononnaded struc- tures, apparently as sturdy as when! they were constructed more than 100 years ago, are being trans- formed into modern apartment dwellings. The apartments will be rented by the university, which will be mov- ed to a new plant south of Baton Rouge and will no longer need the property for housing students. Garages and janitors will be pro- vided as well as other modernities | that may disturb the historic ghosts of French, Spanish, English, confederate and United States fed- eral government tenures of occupa- tion. flllllllllllflllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII|IIIIIIfllilI|IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHII]IIIIIIIIIIIIIiII Author of “Ex-Wife” Weds Brooklyn Banker NEW YORK, Oct. 26.—Ursula Farrott, whose novel “Ex-Wife’ caught the public fancy, has de- rorted the ranks of ex-wives and married Charles T.

Both times the valid- ity of the act was upheld by Fed- eral Judge Harding here. The issue now to be determined, apparently, |1s the average annual earnings of salmon trollers in Alaska. In the first hearing, the allega- tion of Wood Freeman, who bought the sult, that the average earnings did not exceed $500 was not contro- verted by the Territory. On that basis the Appellate Court held that the tax was confiscatory and the demurrer filed by H. L. Faulkner, At the second hearing, the Ter- ritory, through Mr. leged that the average troller's | earnings was some $3,000, and the local Court ruled, in the absence of any showing to the contrary, |that the law was valid. Since then n answer was filed contesting the accuracy of the Territory’s claim as to the earnings. Testimony is now being taken to decide the point.
