Tolstoi Placers Being Mined by Inisl@flil Men ‘New Operations to Be Set Up in Kiyou Hills Next Season Jack Allen and J. B. Havenstrite were passengers through Juneau yesterday on the steamer Alaska after beginning gold placer opera- tions in the Tolstoi district near Ophir. Both Allen and Havenstrite are ing operations, but took over the gcld mining end of operations this summer when the Havenstrites and associates bought out claims in the Tolstoi section. Allen said most of the summer was spent in building 18 miles of road, an airport and setting up the dragline equipment. In sixteen days of actual opera- tion, however, $50,000 was taken out, Allen said, the mining proceeding abreast of thawing operations. Next summer, Allen said Haven- strite will go to new placer property being developed by the same com- pany in the Kiyou Hills where an- other dragline outfit will be set up. Regarding oil drilling operations at Chinitna Bay, J. B. Havenstrite, brother to Russell E. Havenstrite, President of the Iniskin company, said he had heard nothing new ex- cept that further tests are to pe made to determine whether or not further drilling will be done by the present company. —-——— BOATS RASH In spite of wide open spaces, boats sometimes bump.

Oct. 19. — Pennant or no pennant, Manager “Pie” Traynor of the Pittsburgh Pi- rates, has signed his fifth full sea- son contract and will be manager in 1€39. He signed the contract with alary believed to be near $20,000. President William E. Benswanger said: “We don’t hold ‘Pie’ to blame for losing the 1938 National League pennant. The Pirates have booted away many a National League Championship in less than a month We know, as everybody knows, we (lost six of the last seven games.” e Supreme Court Now In Session Again (Continuea 1rum Page One) | state laws, regardless of what Fed- eral opinion may be. The impor- tance attaching to his common law decision is that shortly after Black issued his dissenting opinion, the court came around to accept his view, overruling a locker full of older decisions. BLACK ATTRAC TOURIS' His associates knew at the time of his appointment that Black had a keen mind with which to acquice Jjudicial knowledge. Tourists still find Justice Black the greatest attraction. “Which one is Justice Black?” they ask the guide, as they are ushered into the side-chambers {from which they may view the court. He sits on the extreme right wing of the court, in spite of any leftish economic predilections e may have. As court began its eight months session observers noted no change in the health of any. Brandeis, past 81, is bronzed and chipper, Observ- | ers believe he enjoys court sessions perhaps more keenly than any. He is never absent from even the brief- connected with the Iniskin Oil Drill- est routine sessions save when his| physician puts him to bed because of a cold. McREYNOLDS IS DIFFERENT Justice McReynolds, conservative, evidences least enjoyment of any in the sessions. He rarely attends short, routine sessions and occasion- (ally is late at other sessions, al- though his health is good. He failed to show up at the opening session | this term and immediately a rumor |started that he remained away in “dissent” against the eulogy for the late liberal Justice Cardozo given by Chief Justice Hughes. But that was a fumble-guess. McReynolds highly admired Car- |dozo, In spite of their diverging philosophies. As on other occa- | sions, it was only a 15-minute ses- sion which he considered would not justify him leaving home, where he does his work. McReynolds doesn't neglect jhis work, but he displays less enthu- siasm for court business than when he was one of the dominant conservative group. Since the court has gone liberal, he is one of the | minority. Most regular attendant, because his health is good, because he en- joys his job, and because he is chief justice, is Mr. Hughes. - e DON'T MISS IT!!! | "MARGARET BOWEN concert, | October 21, adv.

Deputy United States Marshal Pat O'Connor when at Tanacross this week to arrest a native man lon charges made by a native wom- an was told by the chief of the tribe that all its members were anxious to suppress the liquor traf- fic. Signed by All Adults The petition sent to Juneau was village, Deputy Marshall O'Connor was told. ' United States Attorney Ralph J. Rivers has received petitions from a number of native communities in the Fourth Division asking for sup- pression of the liquor traffic among the natives. No Restrictions at Present Under the law at present there are no restrictions as to sales or gifts of intoxicants to natives. The next legislature, which will meet in Juneau in January, will be asked to enact a law making illegal liquor traffic among natives, United States Attorney Rivers said. ————— TO WED AT FAIRBANKS The wedding of Miss Margaret Evelyn Jennings to Mr. Robert Ed- gar Lyle is to be conducted by the Rev.

Schoolboy Rowe, Paul Dean Head Texas L On Major Diamonds PAUL DEAN: He's By FELIX R. McKNIGHT DALLAS, Tex Not the usual ‘teen age boy wonder, but a hawk- nosed giant who once before felt | the thrill of “going up,” heads a batch of Texas leaguers storming towards the majors To Lynwood (Schoolboy) Rowe, his second trip to Detroit from the Beaumont farm should carry a bigger wallop than his first train ride to the big show. Comebacks, | they say, never pan out But Rowe, working easily un- der the trained eyes of Manager Al Vincent and Dutch Lorbeer, appar- ently has made the grade. Perhaps the old fast one doesn't burn as it once did, but the curve is still there and the control is nigh perfect. The payoff comes on the earned run average—and he leads a very classy collection of Texas League chuckers in that department! Beaumont, long the greenest pasture in Texas league farms, has a fiery young catcher, Dixie Parsons, who looks ready. A great 340 hiltter who boun out his bingles with line drives Parsons, if he is not too mechani- cal behind the plate, should make Detroit a star. Frank Secory, Beau- mont outfielder, is a husky hitter always in the first five and will get his try. Dizzy Trout, e ntric pitcher, is another cinch tryout with Detroit. In Hal Epp. a slugging fielder who also ranks among league’s fanciest fielders, has a potential St. Louis Cardinal gardener. The young Georgian has | batted consistently better than .300. From the St. Louis Browns' pro- ductive San Antonio farm likely will go John Berardino, hustling second baseman who wields one of the most potent bats in the league Off California’s collegiate diamonds. he has been a first-year sensation Outfielder Ed Silber, a steady field- er and a good batsman who almost ont- the stuck with the Brownies the past season, looks ready for advance- ment. Jackie Kramer, baby-faced pitcher, is a certainty to get his major-league tryout with St. Louis. Slated for a shot at Cleveland’s second basing job is Blas Monaco Oklahoma City youngster off of San Antonio’s sandlots. Not ai rugged hitter, Monaco, neverthe- less, is timely with his bat and has impressed with his fielding | Paul Dean Returns Due for trial with Chicago's White Sox is Pete Fleming, Shreve- port’s heavy-hitting outfielder who Houston | caguers to Be in 1939 Back With The Cards once was rumored tagged for the New York Giants. Grey Clarke, Dal- las’ third baseman who has hung around the .300 mark, may also get his chance with the White Sox Paul (Daffy) Dean, who pitched for Dallas, hopped ba to the majors late in the season, winning two and losing one for the Car- dinals. Paul likely will be with St. Louis next season. - NUTS! (Fairbanks News-Miner) George Kordich, who says he is a total abstainer from intoxicating liquor, made the Fairview Hotel mell like a distillery. Supplying himself with eight pints of whiskey, he poured it on quilts that he stretched around the cdges of the floor in his room, and hen for a considerable distance along both sides of the floor of the *hall outside his room. Having dis- posed of the liquor in this fashion, he cut up paper into small bits and scaitered them over the quilts and the dampened parts of the hallway’s floor. Doesn't Smoke Either Besides disdaining Intoxicating liguor as a stimulant or exhilarant, he also abhors smoking tobacco. If he had been addicted to cigar- ettes and had tried to light one, after saturating his room and the hallway, he might have set the Fairview afire, provided the whis- was any good, Fire Chief E. B. Kordich was taken into custody after guests in the lobby noticed the fumes of the spilied intoxicant, and hastened to investigate the ource. Old-time Resident Kordich, unmarried, is about 56 years old. He is an oldtime resi- dent of the Fairbanks district, and on two occasion has been an in- mate, under Alaska commitments, of the asylum at Morningside, Ore., Chief Deputy Marshal John J.
