The lat- ter is the only other organized senior team on the Island and the trophy previously won by Warner's is yet to be awarded for the cur- rent season. Douglas high school Freshmen who again won over the Juneau school’s team is scheduled to play again in Juneau and other games will undoubtedly be arranged for them. ——————— { VISITING IN SEATTLE | Mrs. Thomas Cashen and child- ren who left here recently for a few months sojourn in Montana stopped over in Seattle for a visit Mrs. H. A. Vanden Wyer, aunt of Mr. Cashen. Vanden who with his family resided in Douglas years ago is employed in Seattle’s traffic signals system. i -, | UBERTI 'HAS OPERATION | Albert Uberti, son of Emil Uberti of Douglas, is now recuperating at his heme in Seattle after an opera- tion for appendicitis which he un- derwent early this month accord- ing to word received by his father. The rationing of oil for tustomers and a pioneer resident, I would feel myself a poor representative of the people were I to do less than voice a protest against the 45% “emer- gency surcharge” which the Alaska Steamship and other transportation companies have recently been per- mitted to levy on Southeast Alaska freight and passenger rates. I am in hearty accord with the views of Governor Gruening as expressed in the enclosed copy of a letter from him to Alaska’s Hon- orable Delegate to Congress, An- thony J. Dimond. Of course there cannot be enough thours in the day for you to ac- complish all the things you have to do, but I have confidence that you will help to find some way for adjustment wherever injustice and suffering can be prevented and I ask that you lend assistance in airing this matter for the good of Alaska. Sincerely yours, (Signed) (Mrs.) CRYSTAL SNOW JENNE.
