Every issue this newspaper will publish Alaskagrams in consecutive order, six each week for 12 weeks—a total of 72 Alaska- grams. . All you do is re-arrange the let- ters to form a single word which is the name of a place in Alaska, and you also show which is the extra letter., For example, the phrase “FOR A CHANGE” when it is un- scrambled equals “ANCHORAGE” plus the extra letter F. Just remember that all place- names consist of only one word— and remember to show the extra letter. There is only one correct answer to each Alaskagram. Each Alaskagram is a group of scrambled letters which form mean- ingless words or a nonsensical phrase. After an Alaskagram is unscrambled the letters form the pame of a place in Alaska; how- ever, there is one superfluous letter —an extra, additional letter which is not needed to form the word. e amamant hmamaat | henann hann Tio ey TR TV T QHMER GETS OHIO Albert Lebrun died today.

The final draft of the new ordi- nance which will be the Juneau Traffic Code will be read for the first time.
