Beshore. A “new” Charles was supposed to be unveiled in Memorial Auditorium | last night but it was the same old cautious Ezzy in action. The NBA heavyweight champion, who made good in his third title defense by stopping Beshore in 2:53 of the 14th | frame, certainly wasn't a “tiger.” | The comebacking Brown Bomber and Charles are tentatively sched- {uled to have it out in Yankee Sta- | dium, Sept. 27.

Phils Increase Lead, 6 Games (By the Associated Press) A difference of $5,000 once kept ;Johnny Groth from wearing a Cleveland uniform. Today the In- dian.s would pay that sum many times over just to get him out of their hair. Since jdining the Detroit Tigers two years ago, Groth has made a career out of belting Cleveland pitching. If the first place Tigers beat the Indians to the wire it can be traced directly to Groth’s bat- ting feats against the club that once spurned him. { It wasn't Groth’s fault that the 1 Tigers got no better than an even The thinking fellow Calls a YELLOW*? - W@AW PHONE 22 OR 14 FOR A YELLOW CAB winners of the Juneau softball league found the mighty Criers away out in front by a score of 15 to 3.

Alcha Week, an annual fesmal |intended to recreate the rich lore | of the islands with \mcompromlsmg; authenticity, will be held from Oct- ober 22 to 29, according to Pan American World Airways, which an. | nually flies thousands of pleasure seekers to the Islands. Although a | central committee manages the cel- ebration, there is hardly a person jon any of Hawail’s principal islands | that. doés not take seme' part in it, if only to purchase a gay ribbon identifying the wearer as an Aloha Week member. The spirit of v.he week is all- encompassing. Residents in every walk of life sport their most colo i ful garments, notably the bright i’aloha shirt and the equally vivid muumuy, or Hawaiian Mother Hub- bard. Set against a background of today for $1,100,000 to start plan- ning and construction of the Ek- lutna hydroelectric project in Al- aska and for $1,500,000 for repair of bridges on the Seward-Portage cection of the Alaska Railroad.

Also for the first time, Aloha Week will be inaugur- ated with a sunrise service on the opening Sunday and will be con- luded the following Sunday with a night Makahiki ceremony.
