MEXICO CITY, (/P) — Heavy
weight champion Joe Louis is sure
Mexico City’s mile and a half al
titude won’t bother him in the
first four rounds of his ten-round
exhibition Friday with Arturo Go
doy, but he is afraid “it might get
me winded later.”
Louis, in a radio broadcast after
visiting President Miguel Aleman
yesterday, said his weight was
down to 214, but still above his
best fighting poundage of 208.
CHICAGO, (/P) — Charles (Red>
Lucas, former “hitting" pitcher of
the Cincinnati Reds and Pittsburg
Pirates, has been named manager
of the Lumberton, N. C., club of
the class D tobacco state league,
Jack Sheehan, director of the Chi
cago Cubs’ farm system, announc
ed today.
LOS ANGELES, (/P) — Bobby
Zander, a cool and deternvned
wo'kman from Los Angeles’ Cen
tral avenue, made a monkey out of
highly-touted Joe Kahut from
Oregon last night in the 10-round
main event at Olympic auditorium.
He also made a monkey out of the
betting boys who had installed
Kahut a 2-1 favorite.
It was all Zander, all the way.
The Woodburn, Ore., lad whose
last triumph here found him whip
ping Freddie Schott, was off his
timing and no match for the Ne
gro. Referee Abe Roth gave Zan
der a 62-48 edge in points. Kahut
weighed 185, Zander 180.
NEW YORK, (A>)—‘Ted Williams
and the Boston Red Sox are over
only the first hump with Ted’s
signing of that king size contract.
A tougher one awaits them a little
further on, when the great star of
the American League champs be
gins running into the “Boudreau
shift” day after day, says Gayle
Talbot, (A*) sports writer. At least,
it is generally assumed in baseball
circles that most, if not all, rival
managers will try the unorthodox
defensive line-up against Theodore
the coming season, and some of
the boys can hardly wait to see
how he’ll re-act.
JAMES ADAMS APPOINTED
U. S. COMMISSIONER
James Adams, who has been in
the U. S. Marshal’s ofice, has been
appointed U. S. Commissioner and
assumed his duties this morning.
He will be assisted by his wife
who has been employed by Polet's
Store.

At Unalakleet
<By Emily Ivanoff Brown)
Sarah D. Dunn of Anchorage,
formerly of Johnson, Tennessee,
became the bride of Frederick Carl
Machetanz Monday afternoon,
January 27, at exactly 2:08 p.m.,
at the Mission Covenant Church.
Rev. Emory E. Lindgren read the
double ring ceremony. Mrs. Lind
gren was the organist. She played
the weddding march very beauti
fully.
The church was simply, bui.
beautifully decorated with all
shades of artificial roses compos
ing an arch some eight feet high,
which made the setting for the
ceremony. The Eskimo Mother’s
Club made the arch with beauti
ful roses.
The bride’s ensemble was in
winter white suit and hat with
black accessories. Her blouse was
robin egg blue in color.
The bride was attended by Miss
Eula Kootuk of Unalakleet. The
groom’s attendant was Mr. Lowell
Anagick of here. Bride was given
away by the groom’s uncle Mr.
Chas. A. Traeger, who is a trader
here. He has been a trader for 35
years approximately. He has been
very good to the people here.
Immediately following the cere
mony the village people were in
vited to the wedding reception at
Treager’s residence. This was the
occasion of congratulations and
best wishes to the bride and the
groom. The personnel of theC.A.A.
and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Berry of
Alaska Native Service Teachers
were among the guests. The na
tives called Mrs. Machetanz as
their 'beloved in law) in Eskimo
Okoik. We felt honored to be the
guests of Mr. Machetanz, and we
are real proud of him as he has
unselfishly placed Unalakleet vil
lage on the map of Alaska by his
publicity. Most of his characters
are from here.
Machetanz and his bride will
leave for St. Michael via dog team
with Mr. Stephan Ivanoff for their
honeymoon trip. Mrs. Machetanz
will mush the huskies.
The bridal couple will make
their home here temporarily.
