THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, NOV. 21,-1931. DOCTOR GIVES TESTIMONY IN PRINGLE CASE Declares D:b—elief that Dancer Forcibly Attacked EXAMINATION MADE | ON MORNING AFTER Stockton Attorney on Wit- ness Stand—Heard Conversations t { LOS ANGELES, Cal., A woman physician, Dr. J. Beatty, testified yesterday she did not believe Eunice Pringle had been forcibly attacked by Alexander Pantages. The testimony of Dr. Beatty was given at the seccnd trial of the theatre man and did not agree with that given by the girl dancer. Made Examination On cross examination, Dr. Beatty admitted she could not tell wheth- er the dancer had been mortally mistreated on the day before the examination Dr. Beatty, former physician for the Juvenile Court examined the dancer on the morn- ing after the alleged attack by Pantages. Pantages’s defense is based main- ly on contentions he was the vic- tim of a frame-up. He denied on cross examination yesterday after- noon that he had tried to prevent Miss Pringle from escaping from the theatre building. Attorney 'I'estifies L. A. Mills, Stockton attorney, testified yesterday afternoon that Garland Biffle, defense witness, lold him he knew nothing about the case before he testified at the first Pantages trial. Biffle testified at both the first and present trial he overheard a conversation between Miss Pringle and Nicholas Duneav in the lobby of the theatre building before the alleged attack and this conversa- tien indicated the two were con- spiring ngamsl Pantages. ——-——— ALL-TERRITORIAL CHAMBER ACTS ON 3 uu_Esnons (Continued ITo:n Fage One) Department of Commerce shall an- hually pay to Alaska for the bene- 4.0 0f the common school fund a sum equal to 50 per cent of the amount received from the share ¢! the United States in the opera- tion of the seal fisheries or the Fribilof Island.” On this resolu- tion the vote of the member cham- bors was unanimous. In Harmeony With Legislature Both the aviation and fur sca. rosolutions are in harmony with joint resolutions adopted at the fast session of the Territorial Leg- islature. The resolution in respect to the cable and wireless telegrapn cystems voices “a protest to the War Department against the sale cf the United States communica- tion service in Alaska to private interests.” In favor of this resolution were 10 of the 12 member chambers. One chamber has not taken action in the matter, and one, Seward, op poses the protest. The Seward Chamber responded’ that “sale of the system would be a forward movement in that it would bring private capital into the Territory,” but it added that “isolated, non- revenue telegraph stations should be continued under the present system with government coopera- tion.” Secretary to Act M. S. Whittier, executive secre- tary of the Alaska Chamber was instructed by the Board o.

The manuscript for a new edi- tion of Alaska Coast Pilot, Part II, was completed and work started on a field examination for & new edition of Alaska Coast Pilot, Part Tide Stations Operated The primary tide stations at Ketchikan and Seward were con- tinued, a total of 30 being in oper- ation at the close of the year to, furnish the basic data necessary to the control of its hydrographic surveys, to the prediction of tides for the mariner, and the intelligent execution of much engineering work along the coasts. A second- ary tide station was also in oper- ation at Cordova through the co- operation of the Chamber of Com- merce. Twenty of the 106 magnetic sta- tions occupied during the year were in Alaska. The object of the mag- netic work during the first half of the year was to complete the oc« cupation of repeat stations—selec- ted stations where observations are repeated at 5-year intervals—in order to determine the change of the earth’s 'magnetism with the lapse of time. The results will ap- pear in “Magnetic Declination in Alaska in 1930." A ‘mumber iof stations which had ceased to be avallable were replaced to meet the needs of local surveyors. Observatories Continuous photographic records of variatons of the magnetic ele- ments .were made at the five mag- netic observatories of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, which includes the one at Sitka. Auroral obser- vations were also continued at Bitka. Magnetic information was furnished the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines at Falrbanks, in connection with the auroral program at that institution established through a grant from the Rockefeller Foundation.

The work is be- lcoming more and more directed to- ward obtaining results of value to those who live in regions sub- Ject to strong earthquakes, and es- pecially to engineers and archi- tects who must design buildings and other structures. There has, been no neglect, however, of the Scientific side of the work, As a result of increased cooperation in the reporting of earthquakes, the record is far more complete than ever before. Records of other than local minor earthquakes have been continued to be obtained at the observatories at Sitka, Alaska, and Tuoson, Arigona, at Honolulu, in cooperation with the Univrsity of Hawall, and at Chicago, 1L, in co-, operation with the University of Chicago. Preparations have been completed to install new instru- ‘ments at Sitka and at the interna- tlonal latitude observatory at Ukiah, Cal. In addition, a number of other educational institutions |have installed seismographs and send the records to the Coast and Geodetic Survey for interpretation, an important aid in making the earthquake information for the entire country. Instruments are being developed for recording strong earthquake motions, which shoulr have a direct turn in preventing loss of life and propert yfrom earthquakes. —————.—— NOTICE When down towa piacing your grocery order with Gearge Broth- ers please remind them of the, little account due me, and they will gladly give you a receipt. adv. ——————— “GOLDEN GLOW"” Christmas Cards, new Alaska photos with in- dividual titles.
