Make Garage Their Roads’ Gallery
^ Going Places? Mr. and Mrs. George W. Griggs always come home
to San Diego, Calif., with picture postcards and souvenir photos
of places they have seen and paste them up on the walls of their
garage. Since Griggs retired from his furniture business in Am
herst, Mass., in 1930, they have taken so many trips that even the
ceiling is covered with pictures. "They're getting out of hand."
he says, looking over the colorful array of souvenirs.

SEATTLE, — m—Truck* are

as fast as water-rail combination
transport. The first attemp* was

Juneau Unions In
Dispute Over Load
ing Lumber Barges
JUNEAU, — f/P> —A jurisdic
' tional dispute between two CIO
unions over loading of lumber
barges was scheduled to bring
temporary closure today, of the
Juneau Spruce Corp., plant, em
ploying 217 men.
Juneau members of the Inter
national Woodworkers of America
voted last night not to cross picket
lines of the International Long
i shoremen's and Warehousemen's
Union.
The ILWU picketed the plant
after E. S. Hawkins, manager,
rejected a demand that six CIO,
longshoremen.be assigned to load
ing barges. Hawkins said the com
pany’s contract for that work was
1 with the IWA.
I Closing flf the plant was ordered
, by the manager, who said it won I
i be impossible to operate if the
i Woodworkers respect the ILWU
picket lines.
SPRINGTIME IN ALASKA
! Every year about this time,
, I find it hard to make a rhyme,
I My mind, like thousands of
other fools,
Is centered on those darned
‘‘Ice Pools.”
I make my guesses every year,
| But I don’t even come near,
In guessing the time, or there
about,
; That darned old ice is going
out.
' But hope dies hard in the human
|
breast,
And some of these days I’ll
make a guess,
That will get me near the day
and the minute;
I don’t expect to ever win it.
But someone wins it every year.
And even though I’m never
near,
When springtime comes around
again,
I’ll surely make a try again.
But this I’m sure if I ever hit it,
I’d pass out cold before I get it,
And if I ever win the gol darned
thing.
I’ll lose half the thrill of spring.
Ifs in every Alaskan this time
of year,
■ To have hopes rise when the
break-up’s .near,
We’ve put our dollars into the
pool,
Then watch the clock * with
mouths a-drool.
