NEWS ITEMS FROM SITKA (SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE) SITKA, Alaska, Sept. 4—Never has Sitka seen as much activity as is ushering in the new fall season. First the “Flying Doctors” arrived and left. Then came the represen- tatives of the ANS Educational Con- ference. Then the American Legion and Auxiliary Delegates, along ‘wnh government and mimary_omcmls who participate in the military fu- neral ceremonies for the War Dead. Most local clubs and organizations which disband for the summer are holding their first annual meetings. The new teachers, along lwth these returning, are arriving in f no living space available. The Shel- don Jackson School and Mt. Edge- cumbe School children are pouring in by the dozens. And of course, the opening of the hunting season m?re- ly adds complications. The final touch of confusion is provided by a sudden run of salmon—antl the maritime strike with the resultant rush to lay in a few supplies to carry over. No single individual could hope to keep track of everything at once. The ANS Annual Educational Conference held at Mt. Edgecumbe ocks, with | | Bernard Boettcher, Sitka, seventh; {Mamie Hill Goddard, Sitka, grade THE DALY ALASKA B N0 AR~ ‘S(‘hool Tuesday through Friday of this week is the first held on Ja- ponski.

The wheel here telongs to James Michael Phelan, better known as | Jimmy, head coach of the Los An- geles Dons of the All-America football conference. Presumable _ Mr. Rickey, identi- fied for these many years as a base- | ball brain, but now thought deép as' the big boss of the Brooklyn football | Dodgers, was thinking about pro work on the part of his hired hands. Phelan kicked the thought around ! a bit and merged his thinking to| cover both pro and college football. i As a veteran of nearly 30 years| in the play-for-fun division, Jimmy !can qualify, even if he is a frestiman | mentor in the pro ranks this year. Strangely enough, Phelan wasn't too concerned atout the physical, aspects of a two-game weekly sched-l ule. He conceded that such a stretch- carrying more players, and being ln! the market for a few pigskinners| himself—preferably big, fast and ' ropficient the admitted it posed aI problem of manpower. i “I am thinking more of the cn-l mactic aspects of the game of foot-, ball,” said the studious, good looking ! Irishan. Then he elaborated on the theme. Football, he said, is built to a large degree on tradition, and both the players and the fans live on the diet. One game, one play, mnyj mean a season—good or bad-—for | a patron or performer. That une’ play, that one game, may be the high point, tecause it won't present itself again for 12 long months. “One game, or one play, may be' a life or death matter, because the | fan knows. it won't be offered m} the second game of a double-header, or a game the next day or later in the week. That one moment is the| big one. “College football thrives on such climaxes, it is a vital part of the game; one, I think, that is not evi-| dent in baseball or other sports.” Big moments, he inferred, are rarc, but rich.
