PROTEGE OF CAVANAUGH The main reason for-Danowski's sudden rise to stardom in the pro ranks is that the professional style of play is made to order for him. He has the size, weighing 200 pounds and standing six feet one inch, as | well as the speed to play the hard, fast brand of football stressed in the National League. S It's the kind of football he firsy learned at Fordham under the guid- ance of the late Maj. Frank Cavan-! augh. Straight, hard football where his speed and weight were held at, a premium. TUnfortunately, before Oanowski completed his varsity ca- reer the famous Iron Major passed on.

Text of Last Night’s Talk BROADCAST NIGHTLY AT 7:05 . HELLO EVERYBODY—This is Bob Wilms broadcast- ing for International Highway Gold Mining and Explora- tion Company, Ine, of Juneau, Alaska, My subject tonight will be “CASSIAR HISTORY.” I am going to talk tonight on the history of that important northern section—known as the CASSIAR-- this is the section in which International Highway Gald will concentrate its activities for several years to come, The headwaters of the Stikine River were’discovered by the first white man in 1834—just over 100 years ago —by John McLeod—a servant of the Hudson's Bay Com- pany. He was one of those anciént and honorable voyageurs—who made history. He came by that hagard- ous and historic trade route—Originating at York Fac- tory on the Hudson Bay. Their freight and supplies were transported by York boats to Oxford House—then by canoe to the Saskatchewan—from there it followed a diverse route to the Athabasca River—then down the Athabasca River (o' the Slave River—down the Slave River to the Mackenzie River--then down. the Mackenzie to the mouth of the Liard River. The long and hazarous voyage up the Liard River— in flat-bettom batteaux-—made the cargo extremely valu- able by the time it reached its destination--which was either—Ford Liard-«Fort St. Frances—ot Dcase Lake (named ‘after Peter Warren Dease—a Hudson's Bay Fae tor). When these supplies reached their destination they had traveled many hundreds of miles—and many months of hard labor were spent.’ Eyery pound of goods had to be transported on the backs of the sturdy’voyagéurs —across many impassable canyons in the Rocky Moun- tains—such names as “Hell's Gate—Rapid of the Drown- ed”"—"Devil's Portage”—“Whirlpool Canyon"-'Sluice Box Rapids”—and so on—fittingly describe the adventures of those hardy men. N But the natives of the country did not prove hospit- able—and their establishéd posts — ‘wete burnt down. They. were forced to abandon the difficult LIARD ROUTE until the discovery of gold—in 1872-=which led to the STIKINE RIVER ROUTE. The. discovery. of gold In Dease Creek—in Thibet Creek—and McDames Creek-created great stampedes any many millions. of dollars were taken out before the discovery of the Klondike farther north in 1897 and 98 Seeking still' richer treasure the miners left the CAS SIAR' as ‘the shallow hand workings were seemingly exhausted. The Casslar is a thawed gravel condition— differing greatly from. the frozen Dawson and Klondike country—stries of 'sinking shafts without using timbers lured. the Cassiar miners farther north. Referring back to the thawed gravel condition of the Cassiar, I have here the personal quotation found 'in time records of John P: Allen—oné of the “OLD IMERS"” on McDames Creek, Cassiar. Quoting as fol- lows: “I was there when the men were driven off their properties by water. They left with tears in their eyes— because the ground was so rich. The gold is there and if you have the machinery to take it out—a fortune is yours.® . . ° 0Old time records show—"Crews of 6 and 8 men shovel- ing-in and a weekly yield of 300 ounges—which is ver 5 ounces per-day per man.” BUT--these rémarkable pay conditions—invariably flattened out—and dumped into large water-borne areas—making it Imperative that ma- c‘t):énery be used to work these areas laying dormant today. " I wish to quote one of the most prominent “old tim- ers! who was 30 years in the Cassiar and a former judge and gold commissioner—Mr. James Porter—whe in old records found commented on, certain, sections of Mc- Dames Creek now owned by the International Highway Gold Mining ‘and Exploration Co., Inc. He said “Prom the point of dredging—this is one of the best prosposi- tions in the country—this very place has been the dump- ing ground for centuries of all the gold that has drifted down McDames Creek and Is tributarfes. This has been demonstrated and proven by men who worked—but— were driven out by water—the right kind of dredge will make a fortune on these grounds. In the past—machinery transportation would have been too costly—as it was all pack-horse freighting then —but today—modern diesel river boats—efficient overland caterpillare and. trucks—and llrplm! routes—hdve. fi cheaper transportation of even mote n mac] -which wilt establish CASSIAR as an ant mechanical gold producing camp—similar to other proven sections in the north—where the “old timers” reaped the first harvest—but merely blazed the way—for the modern gold mining machinery which is today turn- ing out many millions of dollars.
