At a well-attended noon meeting in the Baranof Gold Room, Lions approved that recommendation by the board of directors, by which they promise to fulfill the pledge within two years. Talk of projects for earning the | money immediately occupied their attention. The club generally fav- ored accepting the challenge of the Juneau Rotary Club to recruit a team of members aged 40 or more for a benefit basketball game. Their problem was to find sufficient num- ber of players as old as that. The Lions Club previously con- tributed $750 toward the purchase oi a site for the library. Discussion concerned the heating ;and possible roofing of the swim- ming pool in Evergreen Bowl, a project to which Juneau Lions al- ready are committed, and mention also was made of another sponsor- ship of the Douglas beach recrea- tion area. A preliminary repori was given on the Lion-sponsored activity most in the public mind at the moment— last week’s Fourth Annual Gold Medal Basketball Tournament. Harry Sperling, chairman of the 1949 and 1950 tournaments, esti- mated that there will be $200 for the 1951 Tournament fund after ex- penses of this one are paid. He pointed out increased sales, taxes and expenses, as well as the additional 270 miles to be counted in this year’s travel mileage allow- ance for competing teams.

No one aboard the fishing vessel was injured. A 50-foot Ketchikan-based Coast Guard cutter assisted the owner- skipper of the Arrow, W. H. Graves, and his wife in beaching the dam- aged craft.

Earl Ohmer, commission presi- dent, left immediately for Colum- bus, O. to attend a nationwide meeting of state game commission- ers being held there. He will urge them to give help to the Territory through representatives in Congress. More than 200 requests for spe- cific changes or modifications in game rules were considered by the commission. These were in addition to suggestions gathered by regional meetings held some time previous. Rhode had all suggestions charted as to number, district, type of game and other factors so their trend could be absorbed in a few minutes. He credited this system with allow- ing the commission to hurdle many obstacles quickly. Concurrent with the commission’s meeting, a Territory-wide meet of 45 Wildlife Service men gathered in Anchorage, he said. ‘The year’s program, policies and working objectives were gone over, with the last two days devoted to individual groups thrashing out their problems. Predator control men, law enforcement agents and other branches of the far-flung service went into huddles to iron out their coming year's work.
