The National in making revisions for the 1951 Official Rule Book, stressed the fact that ease of construction would | be the biggest possible contribution to” “giving the race to the boys.” Confusing and confining rule were eliminated. The 1950 rule which prohibited laminated con- struction was eliminated. For 1951 racing cars, boys may use various types: of body construction. A bey's wi t is no longer a big factor in Derby car building. The new rules provide that a car may | carry added secured weight, to bring the total of car and boy up to the 250-pcund limit. This is ex- pected to make it eas for light boys to compete fairly against kigger boys. FUR STORAGE Chas. Golds:!ein & Co.

Goldstein’s office Goldstein Buiiding—Phone 102 Rules Committee, | 1 The use of metal springs of any | kind is forbidden in the 1951-model cers. This rule was adopted to | cut down costs, to make coflstruc- | tion easier and to encourage “boy- built cars. Rules committee mem- bers felt that average boys could not handle metal-spring fabrica- tion without costly work in profes- sional shops. | Tricky construction of gear was eliminated by a new rule which provides that the center of the steering wheel must be no farther foerward than the driver's knees when he is in driving pos- | ition. L Safety factors were considered at i times when the new rules were afted, especially in a new section nhout brakes. It is now provided that the bolts which hold the fac- ing to the brake shoe must be countersunk. N The safety factor also dictated the new rule which provides that | the floorkboard, if made of wood, must be at least three-quarters of an inch thick. It may be thicker, however, depending on how much | weight the builder wants to build into the car in this fashion.

Coming as it does at the start of the baseball season in Juneau “Kill The Umpire” is timely. Here is the short story: Ex-ball player Bill Johnson (Wil- liam Bendix) reluctantly takes the jadvice of his father-in-law (Ray Collins), a former umpire, and en- ters an umpire's school. As an umpire in the Texas League, Bill does all right until the cham- pionship playoffs when a riot de- velops over one of his decisions. { A player involved is knocked un- | conscious and cannot tesdify that Bill called the play correctly. Des- pite Iynch mob plans to tar and feather him. Bill's family his daughters (Gloria Henry and Con- nie Marshall(, his wife (Una Merkel and his father-in-law — next day help Bill reach the ball park, thru a series of hair-raising encounters. The injured player is also rushed to the park, and he tells the fans the umpire was right. The fans applaud Bill lustily. And then, immediately after Bill's decision on the first pitch, the fans angrily shout again; “Kill the Um- pire!” JULY, AUGUST DATES SET FOR KID TROUT DERBY Plans for the Territorial Sports- (men’s Inc., junior trout derby are |h\0vmu forward.

A large industrial firm in the eastern United States has written the boatd asking for information about deposits of iron pyr] other sulphides in the more g sible regions of Alaska. If sufficien ly large deposits are found the com- ! pany will have an engineer examine | ‘hem with the view toward estab- it ent of an important new in- dustry in the Territory. The potential value of this min-l eral recently was described to the Seattle Chamber of Commerce by Ernest N. Patty, former dean of the and University of Alaska’s School of Mines, who told the groun that Alaska pyrite deposits ; be of| high strategic importance. Prospectors knowing of iron pyrite or other sulphide deposits in the Territory are asked to write the ADB, Box 50, Juneau.
