Splendid flying weather was en- countered soon after leaving Ju- neau, the takeoff here being in a frosty fog, and the fliers did not go to Prince George or Vancouver but went direct to Seattle in the big ten-place Lockheed Elecira. Crosson and Hall are enroute to Burbank, Cal., where the plane will be given an overhaul. A. J. Nelson, pioneer Alaskan and | formerly active in labor circles, to- |day filed his candidacy with the \Clerk of Court for the Territorial }Senale as an Independent. Mr. Nelson came to Juneau from | Fairbanks ten years ago, and for a | time represented the Diamond Dollay Loan Company of Portland, Oregon. Next Saturday, February 1, is the |last day on which candidates may | file for offices to be voted on at the | April primaries. Posts to be voted on | include Delegate to Congress, House |and Senate seats in the Territorial :Legxslature, and the offices of Audi- tor, Attorney General and Highway | Engineer. e e—— Two-Way 2a2dio Aids The advantages of two-way radio communication in the efficient oper- ation of aircraft was demonstrated by Pilots Joe Crosson and Walter Crosson and Hall Reach Seattle Six Hours After Taking Off from Juneau ed a point near Prince Rupert, the weather reports from Seattle stated that the fog at that point had clear- |ed. This information was relayed to the pilots of the plane who changed their course for Seattle.
