21 Local Dairymen Must Appear In
Court on Show-Cause Order Sept. 25
Twenty-one local dairymen
must appear before Judge An
thony Dimond at 10 a.m. Sept
ember 25 to show cause why they
should not be named technical
parties to a suit brought against
the Co-Op in September 1946 by
C. R. Monaghan, formerly of the
Valley.
Monaghan pooled his own!
claims with those of the 21 dairy
men and sought to recover a total j
of $31,904.84 which the Co-Op >
was alleged to owe them for 1945 j
milk overage. When Judge Di
mond ruled in favor of the claim
ants, the total amount was col
lected by Monaghan who alloca
ted the sum to all 22 dairymen,
himself included.
The San Francisco Court of ap
peals reversed Judge Dimond's
decision last May, and restitu
tion of the money was ordered.
The question to be settled Sept.
25 is: Should the local dairymen
be named technical parties to the
Monaghan suit and thus be held
legally responsible for the re
turn of their share of the money?
According to information re-:
ceived from the Co-Op offices,
several of the dairymen already
have indicated their willingness
to pay up as soon as the proper
procedure and amounts to be paid
are indicated by Judge Dimond.
A few of the 21 dairymen have
since left the Territory or gone
out of business; one of them has
died. In these cases, the Co-Op
claims, failure of individuals to
reimburse as directed by Judge
Dimond after the September 25
hearing will result in a lien
against property held by them at
the time of the suit, since the Co
Op immediately thereafter filed
notice of intention to appeal.
The 21 dairymen, who with
C. R. Monaghan, shared in the
$31,904.84 awarded by Judge Di
mond and paid Jan. 14, 1948, are
Frank McAllister, Merle Ander
son, A. A. Remple, Arvid John
son, Jack Cope, William Ising,
Joe Lentz, Clarence Quarnstrom,
Tom Moffit, Paul Nelson, B. J.
Lossing, Chet Liebing, Alvin Col
lier, William Lentz, Henning Ben

Fair Board's Tourney
Cup Slays in Palmer
The silver loving cup offered to
the winners of the Little League
tournament at the Fair last week
was lost to all four contenders
by default. None of the Anchor
age teams showed up for the
labor Day finals; and since the
Palmer Little Leaguers lost
their Sunday game with the NC
Indians, they were not contenders
for the championship.
The Palmer Little Leaguers
played a fine game, considering l
that it was their first real game
and one of their star players had
gone hunting. The score was 12
to 0 in favor of the Indians, but
visitors had to work hard for
every point. Although the Palmer
boys didn’t score, they had a to
tal of eight men left on bases in
the 6-inning game.
“Give the boys some more prac
tice and some teams to play with
and they’ll be as good as the best
of them next season”, promised
their manager, Jack Leek.
The Moose Lodge has sponsored
the local group this summer.
In the Saturday game for the
Little League cup tournament,
the NC Tigers won from the
Spenard Lions in a 9-0 score.
All the other baseball games
except the adult contest between
the Palmer town team and the
Army failed to materialize. The
same was true for the other
sports events scheduled for the
Fair, including the horse racing.
The Fair Board silver loving
cup will be offered again at next
year’s fair as a tournament prize
for Little Leaguers.

THE HUNT
By Barbara Carter
Fresh and still is the early morn
On the day moose-hunting sea
son is born.
With pack on his back and gun at
his side
Into the woods the hunter does
glide.
Hour after hour he slips through
the brush.
With never a sign or sound,
When—hush—
A snap of a twig? A slight tink
ling sound
“What kind of an animal have
I found?”
With trembling hands and pound
ing heart
U>> with his gun then stops with
a start,
“If this is a bull, I must not fail
If I shoot a cow, I go to jail”
He fancies the hull all ready to
run,
Peers through the brush and
checks his gun.
With bated breath and nerves
drawn fine,
Comes face to face with a
Porcupine.
GAMBLE WITH A GAMBLE
PAYS OFF
Mrs Charles Hodson is the
proud owner this week of a new
prize sewing machine as a result
of her husband’s good natured
gamble with a Gamble.
According to report. Tommy
Gamble, long time Valley resi
dent, protested that he had no use,
for any of the Fair Queen prizes
offered and could see no reason
for purchasing a ticket. He was
persuaded to buy after Hodson
promised to give him $50 in ex- I
change for any prize he miglH
draw, regardless of its value.
Gamble won the sewing mach
ine and so did Hodson's gamble.
