The Director of the Division of Territories and Insular Possessons for the Depart- ment of the Interior is visiting here this week to confer with local Interior Department officials. He said today that Alaska can expect the immigration of several new government agencies as well as the expansion of many existing bureaus, because of ‘the govern- ment's increased interest in the Territory. Because Juneau is the Capital City, most or all of these agencies will locate here and will need more office. and housing ac- commodations than what ‘is now available. He and Kenneth J. Kadow, head of the .new Alaska. Coordinating Office for the T . are urging .as much new construc- tion as possible in order to accom- modate the newcomers. It was also pointed out that, if -Juneau should be the site of a pulp mill, housing accommodations will be even more critical.

The accidents were at Yukon River points and near Fairbanks. A radio report from Circle City, about 150 miles north of here, dur- ing the night cleared up the fate of the last of the airmen. Red Wil- liams radioed that William Menden- hall and Willilam Huston escaped withous serious injuries in an un- explained emergency landing on a Yukon River sand bar after taking off from Fort Yukon. They were the objects of a day-long search. Both re employees of a mining company. Earlier, four Ladd Field Air Force fliers were returned to their home base by a military rescue plane after their C-45 “undershot” a landing strip at Beaver, on the Yukon. The landing gear collapsed when the plane struck soft earth short of the runway 120 miles north of here. Crew members were unhurt. A 10th search and rescue squad- jron helicopter pilot sighted and res- cued Don Toussaint of the Toussaint Air Service after engine trouble for- ced him to make a sand tar landing ,at Beaver Creek.

The exuberant over-confidence of the past week faded today under the hard blows dealt in the hjgh jump—an event America hoped to sweep. Even as the red, white and blue drooped, there began to emerge the possible great hero of the 1948 games. He is Emil Zatopek . of Czechoslovakia, the strangest, wild- est, strongest, most anguished dis- tance runner ever seen. Suffering with every step, Zato- pek won the 10,000 meters yester- day in 20:39.6, a new Olympic rec- ord. The commotion he set up helped screen the embarrassment of ‘the American high jumpers who bowed tc John Winter of Aus- tralia at the ignominous height of 6 feet 6 inches. Here’s how American fared in other sports on the first day of competition: Swimming—Wally Ris of the University of Iowa equalled the 100 meter record of 575 in his pre- liminary heat. Keith Carter of { Purdue defeated favored Alex Jany |of France in a 576 heat but both’ | qualified for today’s final, as dld‘ |Alan Ford of Yale. !

Army finished second, 5,000 meter crosu-:ountryl in ri the ide. Wrestling—Four Americans won' and two lost.

Barney Ewell, 50-year-old former Penn States speedster from Lan- caster, Pa., closed with a terrific butst that almost caught Dillard; and resulted in a long conference among the judges.
