Commissioner Gordon Gray waived juvenile jurisdiction in the cases of Jimmy and Frederickson, and Dennis was remanded to care of the juvenile division of the pub- lic welfare department, under whose Jjurisdiction he has been.

Some consideration has ‘been given to offering a second two- week period this year, Tyvoll said, to be determined by the advance registrations. The camping committe has drawn up a list of projects which they will accomplish during the next month, in order to ready the campsite for the summer's use. Chief among these is the inaugur- ation of a mosquito control ex- periment, in cooperation with the Territorial Health Department. It is planned that a portable pump and spraying outfit will be in- stalled, which should aid consider- ably in reducing the mosquito pop- ulation, Tyvell said. In addition to the usual annual repairs to the buildings and property, his com- is hoping to experiment also with the building of a small pool which can be used for teach- ing beginning swimming. The camping and activities com- mittee would welcome knowing about anyone interested in cooking for the boy scout camp They would prefer to have a man who is interested in scouting, in addi- tion to being able to handle the food production job. “The pay is| small window and taking $75 in cash.

Frederickson told the deputy marshal that prior to Christmas, he entered the H. 8. Graves Clothing Store by breaking glass in the rear, and took a mackinaw, shirt and other clothing, but no money. Thompson turned the informa- ltion over to District Attorney Pat- | rick J. Gilmore, Jr. The boys are at present under $3,500 bail each. } SCOUT CAMP WILL BEGIN ONMAY 28 The Eagle River camp for Boy Scouts has been set to begin on Sunday afternoon, May 28, accord- ing to F. M. Tyvoll, chairman of the camping and activities com- mittee for the district. Two meet- lings of his cOmmittee have been held recently, Tyvoll reports, with cutdoorsmen from each of the troops who are helping to formul- ate plans for this year’s camp pro- gram. Sitka’s Moose Lodge troop 641 has sent word that they will have a delegation of scouts at the Eagle River camp again this year, the chairman said, with the five Junecau-Douglas troops all expected to take part.

Members of Tyvoll's committee include Harry DeLand, Sam Troutman, Joe Smith, Tony Thomas, Harold Brown, with other members to be appointed later. FLOOD CONTROL SUM UPPED; CONFERENCE WASHINGTON, April 18—(®—It’s now up to a Senate-House confer- ence committee to decide the exact total of a bill which will add mil- lions to the leceral government's authorized program of flood con- trol and rivers and harbors pro- jects. As passed by the Senate last night, by a vote of 53 to 19, tne bill carried a total slightly less than $1,840,000,000. When the House passed the bill nearly a year ago it carried ap- proximately $1,363,000,000. Anticipating that the House might be reluctant to go along on the amount the Senate added to the bill, Chairman Chavez (D-NM) 5f the Senate Public Works Commit- tee, who handled the bill, got the Senate to ask a conference. This means the bill will go di- rectly to the conference committee which will work out the differences. The bill carries no actual ap- propriations. It merely authorizes this and future Congresses to make appropriations for the projects in- MARBLE TOURNAMENT IS RESUMED TODAY After being washed out by weather last Saturday, the marble tournament will be resumed this afternoon after school at the base- |ball park according to announce- ment. | FROM CAA | John W. Bertan, from the CAA office in Anchorage, is registered at the Gastineau Hotel. 10-MILE PIECE OF ALASKA HIGHWAY SHUT TO TRAFFIC A 70-mile stretch of the main artery of the Alaska Highway sys- tem was closed today to all traffic because of weather conditions, it was announced by A. F. Ghiglione, chief engineer of the Alaska Road Commission. The stretch, paved last year, ex- tends from Tok Junction to the Johnson River on theroad to Fair- banks. The river is a short distance south of Halfway House. Through traffic coming in from the states will not be blocked, how- ever, he said, because two days agon road commission crews opened Isa- bella Pass on the Richardson High- way. Trucks may thus turn south- west and travel over the Tok High- way to where it joins the Richard- son road, and then go north over that road to Fairbanks. Opening of the pass, 3,310 feet high, means the entire length of the old highway is open from Val- dez. Thompson Pass, just out of Valdez, was kept open all winter. Another paved stretch north of Big Delta on the Alaska Highway has given no trouble so far, be- cause thawing has not begun there, Ghiglione said. Paved sections are the only portions which give road engineers much worry during the “breakup” season. The detour means an extra 100 miles of highway to traverse to get into the Golden Heart from the south. The road will probably be closed from 10 days to two weeks, Chiglione estimated. The Anchorage-Palmer road has been restricted, but trucks are still allowed over it. This section is also paved, but the breakup has not been severe in that area, he said, which means it probably will remain open during the thaw.

The announcement was made at the regular monthly meeting of the Juneau Parent-Teacher Association by Sterling S. Sears, superintendent” of schools, who said authority for {& half-million dollar bond issue will be necessary if the new grade school building planned for Juneau is to be built. The bond issue would cover the school district’s share of the costs of planning and building the school with gne-half of the total paid for by Federal funds provided under the Public Works Bill for Alaska. It would also guarantee money for purchase of a site, for filling the selected site, and equipping the school. He said the proposed school would include a large gymnasium equipped with a stage. A school not equipped with the needed gymnasium could be constructed for about $200,000 less, he said. He pointed out that, while author- ity for issuing the bonds will be necessary, the total amount of bonds authorized will not neces- sarily be issued, since at least part of the school district’s share of the building costs will probably be provided through Territorial to- bacco tax funds. “We have to have the bonds to be on the safe side in case the school district’s share of building funds could not be obtained as planned, he declared. The decision to call an election for the purpose of approving a bond issue was made at the last meeting of the school board on Wednesday, he said. School District Values Dr. J. O. Rude, a member of the school board, teld P.-T.A. members that school district property t: valued at more than $17 million and bonded indebtedness is allowed up to 10 percent of the value of the property. Juneau is 20 years behind in its ' school-building program, he said. ‘While it isn’t the usual practice to construct a gymnasium in con- nection with a grade school, it was pointed out that a large gymasium would take the ever-increasing load off the Juneau High School gym- nasium, provide a place for com- munity functions, and at the same time serve its primary function as a place in which the children can play during cold or wet weather. Sears announced that some prog- ress has been made in acquiring the desired site for the school—near the small boat harbor—and a local firm of architects is drawing up plans. The building would house the kin- dergartens and six grades, he said. It will also provide lunchroom fa- cilities. Other business taken up at the P.-T.A. meeting included the nam- ing of a nominating committee to draw up a slate of candidates for P.-T.A. offices for the next school year. OUT AGAIN, IN AGAIN FOR MAN IN PRISON Mat Morgan, a44-year-old tran- sient originally from the westward, who was placed in federal jail here last year for passing bad checks and released after serving most of his nine-months sentence, was back in jail today on a warrant issued in Seward for obtaining money under false pretenses. Morgan appeared before U.S. Commissioner Gordon Gray for ar- raignment immediately after being released. He had been given almost two months off for good behavior while in jail. Gray set bail at $1,000, pending further word from Seward.
