APOLOGY TO YOUNGSTERS
The Fourth of July Committee
wishes to apologize to th chil
dren who went to such great pains
to interpret characters indicative
of the occasion. Had there been
less of confusion on account of
inclement weather and our sin
cere desire to show our visiting
tourists a.* much fun as possible,
we would in all probability have
handled the judging differently.
Our visitors were not aware of
the request we had made as to
costume, etc., and it was largely
their applause that decided the
winners. So, UNCLE SAM COUL
THARD, THE LITTLE SAILOR,
GEORGE and MARTHA WASH
INGTON SMITH, and the many
other fine characterizations, our
sincere apologies. You did a fine
job and should have been judged
separately from the others, though
we are sincerely grateful for their
participation and our visitors were
very much impressed.

BARTLETT ASKS
WILDLIFE AID
FOR ALASKA
AP SPECIAL SERVICE
WASHINGTON, — (JP) —Dele
gate Bartlett iD-Alaska* today
urged the Fish and Wildlife Ser
vice to consider extending its co
operative game management p"0
gram to the University of Alaska.
Noting that the service already
has instituted the program pn a
cooperative basis with sereral land
grant colleges, Bartlett said that
inclusion of the Alaska University
“might be profitable to all con
cerned.”
“We know that all game ani
mals and fur bearers constitute
a leading Alaska resource,’ he
wrote Secretary of the Interior
Krug.
“It is a resource that can be
depleted absolutely if appropri
ate steps are not taken soon. We
all know, too, that the failure of
the Congress to make adequate
appropriations for the protection
of Alaskan wildlife is a matter
of utmost concern to everyone who
has looked into the matter.
“I should think that inaugur- ;
ation of a game management pro- ;
gram at the University of Alaska
would serve a variety of useful
purposes not the least of which
would be the training of young Al
askans in game management af
fairs.”
