A 10-mile trail will be construct- ed from Brown Cove, in the Pet- ersburg district, into the Muddy River section through which the western contact belt passes. The same belt will be opened to prospecting in the Bradfield Canal area by a trall linking the head of Bradfield Canal to a spur trail already built from the Behm Canal side. Last season a mining develop- ment trail was built inland from Helm Bay. Tt is proposed to con- struct a branch from this to Vizen Inlet, probably this year. A short spur trail is also planned to the Klawock trail to open up another region said to be well mineralized.

SIGNAL CORPS’ AID ASKED BY RADIO OWNERS Reception Is Wanted Be- tween 6:30 and 10:30 Every Night Between 6:30 and 10:30 o'clock, every night, Juneau time, is the period during which owners of radio receiving sets here have asked the federal government to suspend operations of the Juneau- Ketchikan unit of the Signal Corps’ wireless system. Between these hours, when radio set owners are more anxious than at any other time to hear programs broadcast from the States, reception is sub- Jjected to interference by operation of the Juneau-Ketchikon federal unit. At the meeting last night of t.he Juneau Radio Club, the 6:30-to- 10:30 period was declared ‘the most popular time for reception and the members voted to ask the Government to lessen interference by silencing the Juneau-Ketchikan unit during that interval. A tele- gram, transmitting the request was sent to high officials of the Signal Corps at Seattle last night. The club's meeting, which was well attended, was held in the Council Ohazfl)et of the OCity Hall. third on Baranof Island from the head of Silver Bay into the val- leys lying north and south from there, and westerly into the inter- lor of the island.
