BANFIELD TO BE ASSISTANT T0 FAULKNER Local Weather Bureau At- tache Resigns to Take Up Law Study L. Faulkner, H. local attorney; |announced today that on August first, Norman C. Banfield will be- me associated with him as an as- ant in his law office. For some time, Mr. Faulkner has felt the need of someone to help him while Banfield is anxious to receive training while studying to take the bar examination. Mr. Banfield is now awaiting for approval of his resignation from the Weather Bureau, where he has been employed for the past five years. After graduation from the ity of Wisconsin in 1929, ted with the Weather Bu- the Ford airport in De- troit, later being transferred to Washington, D.

For some time he has been studying law Mr, au at ner. “We will miss Norman Banfield 1934 FISH PACK WILL BE NORMAL, WINGARD FINDS Both Runs and Escape- ments Are Good in All Districts—Red Pack Big ‘The Alaska salmon pack this year will be well up to normal, with an unusually large percentage of reds, it was predicted today by Lemuel G. Wingard, Alaska Agent of the United States Bureau of Fisheries, who arrived here yester- day by plane from Cordova after a three-week absence. He visited the Bristol Bay, Kodiak, Cook In- {let and Prince William Sound dis- | tricts; observing operations and | watching runs and escapement. “Conditions in the industry gen- |erally are excellent. Runs in prac- | tically every district to date have | been good, and the escapements are adequate to seed the spawning beds,” Mr. Wingard said. ‘The runs in Bristol Bay are good, | comparable in every way to last year's record, and the pack there |will be correspondingly large, its | volume being limited by the cans the packers have on hand. Some !of the canners there, not expecting such conditions this year, probably did not take up a full complement of cans. Several plants had al- ready filled all of their cans. Mr. Wingard inspected the streams and lakes and found large numbers of {fish already on the spawning grounds. At Chignik, where a heavy pack (is being put up, there have been geod runs and to date the eseape- ment has totaled 1,000,000 fish.

SOLICITING OF FARES ON DOCK T0 BE STOPPED Cabmen Must Remain at Side of Cars While Ships in Port Is Order Local agents for the various steamship companies using the Pa- cifjc Coast dock met this morn- ing with G. H. Walmsley, Juneau manager for the Pacific Coast Company, to protest the alleged disturBances caused by ballyhooing and other methods of soliciting fares for the Mendenhall Glacier tour, on the part of the various concerns engaged in transporting passengers from the dock to the Glacier. H. R. Shepard represented the Canadian National line, V. W. Mul- vihill the Canadian Pacific line and R. J. McKanna the Alaska Steamship Company. Off Face of Dock As a result of the meeting, taxi- men and bus drivers will be re- quired to remain at their respective vehicles while solicitinz fares, or remain behind the warehouse at the dock, and no soliciting is to be done at the face of the dock, according to the statement issued. | While admitting the right of any | taxi to solicit fares, they agreed that soliciting should be done in a more orderly way. At Gangplank All of the steamship companies named are selling tickets aboard ship on the Farthest North Gray | Line tour, and it was felt that nce the tickets had already been sold before the ship docked, it would be permissible for Jack Simpson, local manager of the Gray Line, to continue at the foot of the gangplank to take these tick- ets and route his passengers, the group decided. In order to maintain a fair standing bet ween transportation concerns, however, Mr. Simpson will not be permitted to do any| soliciting on the dock. This action on the part of the Pacific Coast Company, according to Mr. Walmsley, is being taken to give all concerns an even break and to aveid building up adverse feeling on the part of passengers toward taking the Glacier trip. Mr. Walmsley brought out par- ticularly that he is not concerned | with prices charged by the various cencerns, but only with keeping the dock orderly, and that he took the actioh primarily to prevent any trouble while steamers are in port. The first ship to be handled in this fashion will be the North- western, due here at 8 o'clock this evening. BENEFIT BASEBALL DANCE Tonight spices B. P.
