"FISH EXPERT" IS HEADING FIRST FOR FAIRBANKS Dr. Hubbs, Qetary Ickes'| Represenfative, Has | Business in Alaska Traveling as special representa- tive of Secretary of the Interlor‘ Harold L. Ickes, Dr. C. L. Hubbs, who also bears special personal au- | thority from President Roosevelt in several matters, was in Juneau | briefly today as he began an inves- | tigation for the Department of the Interior. | Ostensibly, Dr. Hubbs, University of Michigan professor, came here to study the fishereis with a view toward changing the regulations, but his first destination is Fair- banks, where he flew today by PAA El a Dr. Mubbs will visit Mount Mc- Kinley National Park, travel down the railroad belt to Anchorage and then go to Bristol Bay and the Prib- ilof Islands. He will return to Southeast Al a to make his fish- eries investigation in August In and Out ! Accompanying Dr. Hubbs here on the Bureau of Fisheries vessel Brant were Seton Thompson, Acting Alas-| ka Agent of the Bureau of Fisheries, and Frank Dufresne, Executive Of- ficer of the Alaska Game Commis- sion. The Brant docked here at 8:30 o'clock this morning, giving Dr. Hubbs just time enough to drive to the airport and catch the Elec- tra. The Brant, which remained here, will pick up Dr. Hubbs again at Unalaska the latter part of the month. Enroute here from Ketchikan, Thompson and Dufresne conferred with Dr, Hubbs on administration of fish and game, both departments recently having been brought to- gether under the Department of the Interior. Although not much could be learned here today as to what Dr. Hubbs is up to, it was believed no changes of any consequence were expected in fish or game regulations until the professor completes his Alaska investigations, probably in September. l tion. erated “lift.” - William Schmitzs Celebrate Wedding | Anniversary Here THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, SATURDAY, JULY 8, 1939.

Aboard the craft are Mr. and Mrs. Hogrefe, Mrs. Walter Armstrong, wife of the Purchasing Agent for the United California Theatres, Ed Oanepa, Jr., son of a Standard Oil executive, and Herman Hogrefe, Jr. The Hogrefes shipped their cruis- er to Seattle and began a cruise of | British Columbia and Southeast Al- aska June 15. On First Trip Here It is the first time since 1929 that Hogrefe and his wife have been in Alaska. They had made three trips previously in their cruiser, the Fun Runner, as far as Ketchikan. For all aboard, this is their first trip as far north as Juneau. Fish- ing and side trips up unfrequented “wonderful cruise.” Tomorrow, with Steve Ward as fishing guide, they will go to Shelter and Aaron Island, seeking salmon, | and from there they will continue on to either Skagway or Sitka (on which choice there is family argu- ment) but definitely taking in Glac- er Bay before going south. Is “Sweetheart” The Lazy Bones is a “sweetheart” in cruising pleasure, with twin 71 Gray gas engines and a cruising | speed of eight or nine knots. For- | ward there_are two berths in the forepeak, and aft from there is a full beam stateroom with two more berths. The galley lies aft of the state- room, i beautifully and practically appointed, and can also sleep two persons. From the galley room, a glassed in cabin goes back to an open cock- pit, and as you go out the after door to the cockpit, youll see on your left the “cherry on the sundae” insofar as the Lazy Bones’ appoint- ments are concerned. It is nothing less than an ivory enameled organ about as big as the cushion on your davenport at home. “Wins Again” Genial Skipper Hogrefe, whose picture has been frequently used under San Francisco yachting head- lines “Wins Again,” etcetera, has with him messages of good will to all ports and all mayors from the California Secretary of State, the Golden Gate Exposition President, | sion GRADUATES TO MATRIMON Y __Joy reigned su- preme at West Point graduation exercises, for Michael J.
