Stating that the shooting on
Alt. Marathon took place on his
property, Mr. Brownell thought it
would be a good idea to stop all
shooting on his land. He probably
will take steps to enforce the
trespass law so far as the use
of firearms are concerned.
WAITING LIST AT
UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA
•
The outlook for the coming year
;.t the University of Alaska at
College. Alaska shows prospects
or as many students as last year.
. ccording to a statement issued by
Helen M. Jorgensen. Registrar.
Many of last year’s students are
planning on another year at the
University and have reserved their
dormitory rooms for the fall sem
ester.
The processing of applications
from new students is being com
pleted and already there is a
waiting list for men students who
want rooms in the dormitories.
I Iiss Jorgensen said. Rooms are
itill available for women students.
It appears that there will he
many who will be unable to at
tend the University next fall, if
; 11 rooms on the campus arc fill
ed and housing in Fairbanks is
unobtainable.
As in years past new applica
tions are being received from
prospective students from the
United States as well as from the
Territory. Many prospective stud
ents are G.It.'s who saw service
in some part of Alaska and wish
to return to the Territory to study
and make their homes. Married
couples are planning to bring their
own trailer accommodations so
that they will be assured of hous
ing.
The Departments of Mining and
Civil •Engineering prove to be the
most popular fields of study for
the men, whereas general courses
in Arts and Letters are the choice
of women students.

“The Two Joes Fight”
(by R. Dangler)
•
Yesterday at 4:15 Seward time
Jersey Joe Walcott met the
Heavyweight Champion of the
World. Joe Louis, at the Yankee
Stadium in New York.
Joe Louis was defending the
crown for the 25th time which
he has kept for 11 years and 3
days, which was more than the
Great John L.. who kept his for
about a decade.
Looking on at Yankee Stadium
were from 40 to 45 thousand per
sons.
Odds were 11 to 5 in favor of
the 2131 - pound Champion against
Walcott weighting 194% pounds.
During the first 2 rounds of the
fight very few punches were
thrown. In the third round the
Brown Bomber became very wild
near the end of the round which
left him open to one to Walcott’s
rights to the jaw which floored
Louis for one count. In the four
th round it looked even at the
start until Joe put Walcott on the
ropes. Round five found Louis
coming in with more power as
Walcott was begining to tire and
thow wild punches. Louis had
Walcott on the ropes with Walcott
coming off with a right to Louis’
jaw which almost floored him.
The sixth round brought little
, cxcitment as Walcott bicycled
i around pushing a few left jabs
off the Champs chin. The next
two rounds showed Louis as ag
gressive and begining to move in
but both had respect for each
others right. In the tenth round
Louis walked in aggressively and

took what came but nothing
stopped him. In the 11th round
it was even during the first min
ute with both Joes being aggres
sive, but the next minute Louis
came in with his right putting
Jersey Joe Watcott on the ropes
and finally with a few more, put
Walcott on the mat for the count
of ten leaving Joe Louis the
World Heavyweight Champion
with a knockout.
In 1937 Walcott, as Joe's train
er,knocked him out at his Lake
ville training camp and was sure
he could do it again.
The Brown Bomber fought the
return bout with Walcott to lake
the bad taste out of the mouths
of the fans from the December
bout he had with Walcott. Louis
had planned to retire from the
ring after this fight win, lose or
draw.
He now retires. Champion Un
defeated.
