VERNON SEEKS NEW TRIAL
James Vernon, a Jonesville
miner, who last week received a
live year jail sentence as the re
sult of a shooting fray at the
mine last spring, was hoping to
day for a new trial in the Third
District Court at Anchorage. Mo
tion for that trial still had not
been filed at press-time. Vernon
shot his lifelong friend, Louis Po
luck, who lost an eye as a result.
Root of the quarrel between the
two was never clearly defined in
the recent trial.
Mr. and Mrs. Bob Totten and
family have moved into the North
Palmer home of the Rudy Yur
bich family. The Yurbiches are
now living at Jonesville.

EFFICIENT
FARMING
For modern, more efficient farming, electricity
is a necessity.
For example, in the barn electric lights make
cleanliness easier; electric milking equipment saves
time and money.
