The red- {haired Ginger, in the role of a | young society beauty, takes the | aggressive, and it's hard to tell | whether Powell is a willing victim, | or an apprehensive clinger to the| standard of bachelorhood.

News Nofes From Sitka and Willlam | “Star of Mid- ff ; P~ S (3 SITKA, Alaska, May 22—45pecm‘ Correspondence)—William A. Holz- | heimer, United States District At-| torney, and Sam Duker, Juneau attorney, flew here Monday from Juneau for an assault and battery case.

Brown, natives, and the three men and their two native-girl com-| panions held on additional counts | of being drunk and disorderly and disturbing the peace.

Duker represented the defen- dants, William Zook, Dugan Adams, Edward Baden, Annie Lifal and Martha McGuire. | The complaint containing the‘ three counts was filed by Ray Mcfl Graw, Sitka’s Chief of Police, after | he had arrested the defendants Friday afternoon, May 17, follow- | ing a fight in the Brown home,| where the three men roomed, The|; jury deliberated for more than an| hour before bringing in a verdict of not guilty on the assault and battery charges, another acquittal on the drunk and disorderly count, and a decision of guilty on me\ charge of disturbing the peace. | Commissioner William Knight sentenced the three men to four! months each in jail and the women to terms of two months apiece. The | defendants intend to appeal the case, Their bond has been set at $100 each. | BASEBALL The Navy big guns were silenced Sunday by the hard-pounding men\ of the Siems-Drake team, 13 to| 10. It was the islanders’ first league | game of the 1940 season. A good crowd was in attendance to witness the contest despite the threatening rain which restrained itself long enough for seven innings to be played.

But in their half of the fifth the indominitable Siems-Drake gents burned up the diamond, scoring three more runs and putting the game on ice in a surprise victory. A short rally in the ninth saw the Navy almost tie the game but the most they realized were three not sufficient to overtake their adversary.
