A police just want to try to get them suffi- ciently interested so that they will try to raise a few crops on the side.” Pogsibilities In addition t6 small home gardens, Mr. Wellington foresees pessibilities for a few milk goats, rabbits, chick- ens and possibly hogs being kept at many of the villages to pad out the present bare subsistence diets of many of Alaska’s native people. Milk from the goats should be effective in combatting ‘tuberculosis, he feels. Communities should have central provision for storing root crops, he thinks, but otherwise the business of farming on the side should be largely left up to the individuals. He‘ is sure that when a few try it and show what can be done, others will get the urge. Gardening or farming of any sort is’ entirely new to a large part of | Alaska’s natives, he said, therefor they will have to have some direc-| tion. Seeds and stock should be dis- pensed through the ANS teacher in| each village, but the natives should have to give something in return for them. Perhaps a few experienced agriculturists should be employed to|__ travel among the villages to advise. Agricultural Courses Mr. Wellington thinks that addi- tion of &gricultural courses in at least one of the ANS vocational schools should pay off for the fu- ture, in giving students some “know how"” to take back to their homes with them. During five weeks in Alaska “Duke” traveled Southeast and Southwest Alaska, went to Kodiak and along the Yukon from Tanana to Fort Yukon. He is enthusiastic about crops he saw being harvested at Eklutna. “They compare very favor- ably with and in some cases excel those raised at Indian Schools in the States,” he declared. He hopes to have peed, and some livestock, available to the -natives by next summer. Cooperation : All ANS efforts along farming lines' being made to Douglas homes and Iconsu-ucv,iun on two new ones is | progressing rapidly. The Government School is re- ceiving a new paint job by McClel- |1an Decorators, as well as other ineeded improvements. | | BOY FOR ANDERSONS A 7-pound, 10-ounce boy was born |to Mr. and Mrs. William C.

DOUGLAS WAHTO HERE Douglas Wahto arrived this morning by boat from Tenakee Springs, where he has been vaca- tioning with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wahto, who are expected to larrive here later in the week. > By 1883, more than 5,00 Obuffalo {hunters were on the plains, shoot- iing buffalo as fast as they could. the streets. Forty-five city, studio and mili- tary policemen attempted to hold the crowd back. But they were not enough, When the bride and bride- | groom left the church, a shouting throng of adolescents, middle-aged women and men nearly swamped lieutenant finally ordered an aisle through the crowd, and the couple, surrounded by eight guards, made their way to a wait- ing automobile. If the outside scene was hectic, the ceremony inside was just as| Shirley wanted it. The 500 invited | guests sat quietly in the church,! surrounded by hundreds of plnkl roses. At 8:45, Shirley took the arm of her father, George Temple, and walked calmly down the aisle. She was wearing a simple gown of, white satin. On her head was a small crown of corded satin, and a long silk net veil draped over the full train. Dr. Willsie Martin conducted an Episcopal double ring ceremony. | Shirley performed her role with the deftness of an academy award winner. Her “I Will” could be heard in the rear of the 'massive church. There wasn't a miscue or a muffed line. At the conclusion of the cere- mony, Sgt. Agar gave his bride a long, resounding kiss which brought a ripple of laughter from the audi- ence. The kiss was longer than movie censors would allow. The guests included few film personalities. The majority were friends of both families, plus the rank and file of workers who have been associated with the actress in the studios. After the reception, the couple left on their honeymoon, which will be spent on a motor trip. He must report back to the Spokane Army Air Base in 10 days, and she will then return to live with: her parents. + ey INSPECTOR ARRIVES Lt. Comdr. Frank L.
