And Juneau women present saw an idea for lightening their own wifely duties. “If Carl Rusher can bake a cake for a contest and win,” said one, “my husband can certainly bake one. He doesn’t need to enter it in a contest.” Rusher’s winning entry was a square white two-layer cake, iced with pink butter frosting and de- corated with sliced marachino cher- ries. It won on all counts, appear- ance, texture, flavor. Henry Harmon took the prize for the most original culinary creation. His entry was a cake shaped like a ship—“P.-T.A."—with white ic- ing for paint, a striped candy stick for a funnel, red lifesavers for portholes and chocolate icing rope- coils for and aft. * It was accompanied by a notarized affadavit by Mrs. Harmon stating ] that Harmon had, indeed, made the cake—and without even the slightest coaching. Other entries included those of Harold Cargin, John §S. Tanner, Henry Lorenzen, Thomas L. Crooks and the Rev. H. E. Beyer. Judges were Mrs. J. L. McNam- ara, Mrs. Neil Fritchman and Mrs. R. M. Akervick. The entries were served along with coffee to those attending the P.-T.A. meeting. No casualties have een reported. P. S—Only flop entered was one vhich the men said had beén muggled in by “some woman.” It vas iced in pink, and when the judges’ knife dug into it some of the frosting dropped away, reveal- ing cotton and cardboard. 1 J PETER WOOD LOSES SUIT A directed verdict for the de- fendant was brought out in Federal Court today for Rosario Dimatteo, who had been sued for $625 by Peter Wood, real estate agent, for a 5 percent fee Wood claimed was due him on the sale of property belonging to Dimatteo.

RILEY TAKES IT ON CHIN AS PEP WINS ST. LOUIS, Jan. 17—(M—Little Willie Pep, matchless master of the featherweight boxers, put his title on the line last night and took it back when he was good and ready—at one minute and five sec- onds of the fifth round—and Charlie Riley of St. Louis was not ready. Up to that point Pep had been dangling, almost playing, teying with the little St. Louis Negro who had pleaded for several years for a crack at the title. The first four rounds were all Pep's, while Riley stayed on the side of caution. For four rounds they waltzed around. Then, in the fifth, Pep found a place for his knockout punch and let it go. Pep had feinted with a left. Like 1 streak of lightning the right came sarreling through, an uppercut to the jaw, and Riley hung for a mo- ment in space, his knees buckling. A good many of the ringsiders said they'd never seen a cleaner knockout. It was Pep’s 45th in a grand total of 145 bouts. i | Pep, who hails from Hartford,| 'Conn, weighed 123%, his lightest weight for a title fight. Riley was !125%, half a pound inside the| | limit.

LARS SORENSEN HOST AT DINNER GIVEN T0 BOYS OF FIRE HALL Lars Sorensen, who is one of Ju- neau’s Fire Department truck driv- ors, is also some cook. This is the unanimous verdict of nine who had to let out their belts after a feed. Sunday night at 7 o'clock, nine fire hall boys were treated to a turkey dinner, with all the trim- mings, prepared absolutely by Sor- ensen. The dinner was topped off with a delicious lemon pie, also made by the host. Did the boys do justice to the cooking? Well, as George O'Brién says: “There was not enough of that turkey left to even make soup,” so there will be no soup, the bones were picked bare. / Dr. Rebert Simpson OPTOMETRIST Eyes Examined — Glasses Expertly Fitted ) SIMPSON BUILDING—Phone 266 for Appointments MANI JAMES SLEASON DON RICE NARRY | | | o..Plus..o CARTOON NEWS BY AIR DOORS OPEN 7:00 SHOW STARTS 7:20 and 9:30 ELLIS AIR LINES DAILY TRIPS JUNEAU TO KETCHIKAN via Petershurg and Wrangell With connections to Craig, Klawock and Hydaburg Convenient afternoon departures, at 2:00 P.
