OPENING HOOP GAMES WON BY DEMOLAY, ELKS Krause andfida Five De- feated in Tilts Last Evening Fighting off a rushing second-half Concreter drive which brought the losers to within one point of a deadlock with only two minutes of play to go, the DeMolay Lodge quintet opened the City League cage season last evening with a 42 to 34 victory over the Krause five in the Jtnedu High School Gym, The second game of the double opening saw a smooth-working Elks team swamp the Coast Guard crew of the Haida. Towering above their opponents, the purple-clad DeMolays had things their own way following the opening gun and closed out the first half with a 19 to 10 lead over the seemingly demoralized Con- creters. But the third quarter was still very young when the DeMo- lays found the course of the game going awry, as the Krause squad, led by Ralph Bardi repeatedly work- ed through and under the Purples nto the scoring z°ne Though the Krauses kept up an almost continuous cannonade on the Lodge goal, from both long and short range throughout the third period their gunnery was a bit too wild to’' even the count. Toward the end of the third ses- sion, the Krause attack slackenéd and the DeMolays used the oppof-| tunity to pull once again into a commanding lead. ‘The opening of the final period, however, found the Concreters again under full power as they commenced their final Irive, this time with their eyes on the hoop. “The Lodge lead, though, was too nuch for the Concreters to quite nvercome and a converted foul shot by DeMolay guard Byington just when the score was almost -knotted cracked the Krause drive wide open, From there the DeMolays sank.a string of four more buckets while the Concreters were able to drop only a single point more before the final whistle. Once they had Iound a way to overcomé the extra range of the DeMolays, the Krause cagers show-' ed themselves to -be adept at ball-| hawking,’ and ‘with their éyes once well sighted on the hoop. the m\dget‘ combination of Bardi, Mercer and| Rudolph should spread considerable wotry through the City League ranks. < 'THe' DeMolays again'this season bave thrown an aggressive, sharp-! shooting five on the court, with Kinky Bayers, Sammy Nelson, THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 8, 1937.

Molays this season appear to be somewhat weaker in the back court than formerly, however. Referee Bud Foster, working his| first game as officlal, kept the! piay moving at a hot pace, but did not spare the lash, two DeMolay performers being tooted out on fauls, while a total of eighteen penalties was counted during the opening tussle. Elks Swarm Sailors Showing a smooth-working zone| defense, but little else, ‘the Sailor five off the Coast Guard cutter Haida found heavy going against the surprise court package the Elks have unwrapped for this season, as the Antlers put out in front and consistently built up their lead to end the battle with a 39 to 18 win. For most of the first half the Guardsmen were able to swarm un- der most of the Elk [ormations, but were unable to hold onto the ball once they had it, sloppy paases{ nd fumbles letting the Elks in un- der the basket for set-up shots. The same failure to hang onto| the leather kept the play almost en- tirely in the Sailors' territory with' practically no opening to do any shooting of their own. Two field} goals and three converted fouls were all the Sailors scored during the cpening half, while the Elks were counting two to one. The Sailors had the same trou-| ble, only more so, during the third and fourth quarters, while the Elks ddded another notch of speed and with the former Juneau High &chool flash, Roy Smith, and Center | May doing most, of the. bell-ringing, took advantage of nearly every Halda break to pile up markers, Several new stars for the cny' League came to light in the Elk line-up, which contamed only one seasoned lezgue petformer, Bob Davlin. Among the coming lights in the BP.OE. ranks are Ginsberg, May and Drulinger. Doing a large share of the work for the Sailors were Forward Huffine and Guard Varness.

M. Behrends Bank at Juneau, Alaska. Interest coupons SECURITY UNDER MORTAGE This bond issue is secured by a direct closed fiirst mortgage on all the lands, buildings, machinery, tidelands, and all other property of the Juneau Lumber Mills, Inc., at and near Juneau, Alaska. The mort- gage is executed in favor of George E. Cleveland, trustee for the bondholders. The saw mill plant and equipment of the company is situated on the tidelands at Juneau, Alaska, and comprises an area of approximately three and one quarter acres, together with adjacent storage facilities for logs. The company also owns a tract of tidelands about one mile northwesterly from Juneau, which is used for the storage of logs. VALUATION AND EARNINGS VALUATION: The property mortgaged to secure this bond issue has been recently appraised in the sum of $250,000.00.- The value of the mortgaged property, therefore, is over two and one-half times the total amount of the bond issue. The proceeds of the sale of this bond issue will be used to pay off present outstanding 8¢9 bonds and notes in the aggregate sum of $87,000.00, and the remaining $13,000.00 for working capital and improvements to the plant. It is expected that approximately one-half of the issue will be exchanged for bonds and notes at present outstanding, effecting a saving in interest charges of approximately $1,000.00 per annum. All new buildings and new machinery installed are covered by the mortgage which is given for the protection of the bondholders, and all buildings, machinery and equipment are fully protected by insurance. EARNINGS: The mortgaged properties are operated by the Juneau Lumber Mills, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of Alaska, which is engaged in the general saw mill and lumber business; and, during the past seven years, the earnings, after deducting taxes and depreciation, and including sums spent in improvements and additions to the plant, have averaged more than three and two-thirds times the great- est annual interest charge fequited for the payment of the interest on the entire bond issue, and almost two and one-half times the combined annual interest and principal requirements for retiring the bonds. BORROWING CORPORATION These bonds are a direct obligation of the Juneau Lumber Mills, Inc., which corporation is the owner of all the property described in the trust deed to secure this bond issue. The present company was organ- ized in 1926, and it is the successor to the old Juneau Lumber Mil]s_, a corporation. This corporation and its predecessors have been engaged in the saw mill business in Juneau for more than 36 years. The com- pany is engaged extensively in manufacturing lumber, box«_es, lumbér Qroducts, railway ties, etc. The mortgage or trust deed, under which the bonds are secured, will constitute the only lien against the prop- erty of the company. The company has at all times kept its property and equipment up to the highest standard, and within the past few years, it has installed an up-to-date power plant of its own. The total cost of all property mortgaged to secure the bond issue is approximately-,.$390,000.00. Dur- ing the past four years the market for the company’s products has considerably improved; and its general lumber business is increasing from year to year. The 1937 season is not yet over, and, before the close of the season, the company will have produced approximately nine million feet of lumber. PAYMENT OF BONDS AND INTEREST The trust deed or mortgage provides for the payment of interest on each of the bonds at the rate of 6% per annum, payable semi-annually on the 15th days of June and December of each year; and for the retirement of $10,000.00 par value of the principal of eaeh .year, w?mgndnz on !aeeember 15, 1938, provided the. bonds are not sooner redeemea on’. ag mtereét flate at 102 afl‘ accrugd iuterest The bonds are jssued i denominations of $100y $500 and $1000 in au-matlit es. fi i 3 ] On account of the value of the secunty and the high rate of m!erés ] Whlcfi?s already ‘earned by the company three and two-thirds times the amount required, these 6% bonds are a sound, desirable and excellent investment, and as such we offer them to the public.
