In his er de- clining the Fur Rendezvous invita- ticn, he had suggésted that as a pessibility. Principal Lahnum'’s letter in an- swer to last week's wire challenge ignored the suggestion; it stated R # ¢ that Juneau had forfeited any right to the championship in refusing to enter the Fur Rendezvous tourna- ment. Lahnum went further.’ He sug gested that every year there should be a tournament at Anchorage taking in all the high schools of Alaska. That would mean that Ketchikan, Wrangell, Petersburg, Douglas, Sitka, Sheldon Jackson, » Juneau, and possibly Haines and Skagway would have to travel ev- ery year to Anchorage. There, if the plan is adopted, they wculd meet teams from Fair- banks, Nome, Palmer, Cordova, Seward, Valdez and Anchorage. Ac- cording to figures from the office of the Commissioner of Education, for Septcmber, 1946, there are 651 students in high schools in seven Southeast Alaska towns. L) Haines was not included in this 7 total, nor Sheldon Jackson High School at Sitka, with at least 100 students. The competing high schools of West Alaska have a total of 582 students, in comparison with an estimated total of 775 for South- east Alaska. The most fair way to decide an A All-Alaska High School Champion- ship team, said Phillips, would be ,. to hold an annual series of three games between the two regional first place winners. This should be played alternate years in Southeast Alaska. “The people in Ketchikan or Sitka might like to see their team play an Al- askan championship game once in a while, tco,” Phillips commented. - -, - FIGHT DOPE Fights last night resulted as fol- lows: At Providence, R.

Lewis The editorial appearing in The Empire of March 10th leaves the impression that all the utilities had, during the period of the war, alowed their properties to run down, having neglected to make necessary re- pairs. The cwner of the Juneau Water Works takes exception to the editorial in so far as it refers to the water plant. Since Pearl Harbor, several thousand feet of cast iron mains have been laid and other im- provements have been made, and the ordinary every- day repairs have been taken care of, notwithstanding the war. The figures recently appearing in The, Empire showed a balance of $13,000 per year available for the retirement of the Water Works bond issue, after allowing for depreciation and bond interest. So far as the Juneau Water Works is concerned, ther is no need of any additional bond issue to furnish working capital, or for any other purpose. In order that the voters may be fully advised as to the facts, the following is submitted for con- sideration. The Black & Veatch appraisal of the Juneau Water Works gave the reproduction cost new, as being $327,082, while the reproduction cost new, less de- preciation, was given as being $227,896, or about $18,009 more than the price asked by the owner of the water plant. Mayor Parsons, himself, employed Black & Veatch to make the appraisal which he now, as Ex-Mayor, finds fault with. Report of operations of the Water Works for 1945 shows gross receipts of $31,764. Expenditures at Juneau were $19,496. This figure includes office expense $1258, salaries $59 taxes $4336, rent $900, or a tetal of $12,446. At least $10,000 of this expense could be eliminated, as the City organization could take over the Water Works hookkeeping and collecting department, and would not have to pay $4336 taxes. An additional saving would be made by the elimination of the $5,000 management salary new received by R. F. Lewis, the owner, and $1,000 other expense incurred at San Francisco. The report also shows a balance of $3289 after deducting depreciation charges. - Thus there would be a total of $19,289 per year available for retirement of bonds and interest. Municipal bonds have been selling as low as 114 . Allowing 3% for Juneau Revenue bonds, the total interest on $210,000 would be $6300, leaving $13,000 per year for retirement of the bond issue. R. F.
