and Superintendent William T. ■
Zahradnicek opened and read
;ach bid. Also present at the bid
ding were School Board Member
Lew Hanks, the architect, and
Roy R. Holman. Alaska represen
tative of the Home Finance
Agency. This agency, which has
a regional office in Seattle, acts
in a supervisory capacity in pro
jects financed by federal funds
under Public Law 815..
Awarding of the bid was pos
poned until the meeting of the
School Board last night because a
quorum of the members was not
present at the opening.
In an informal discussion of the
bids following the opening. Mr.
Holman observed that the School
Board probably had no alterna
tive but to award the contract for:
a four-classroom building. The
other alternates, either singly or
in combination, did not add up to 1
enough, when deducted from the
base bid. to bring the adjusted j
total within the construction al
lowance. Deductions allowed by
the low bidder for the other four
alternates amounted to only $6,- j
829. Even with the deletion of all ;
these desirable features, Stock <
and Grove’s bid for the six-class- i
room school would be $210,000. j
Ruefully, it was observed that ,
each of the four classrooms built i
with the funds provided would
cost approximately $48,000; the
two classrooms that had to be ]
eliminated because of insufficient 1
funds would have cost only $12.- 1
000 apiece. Never, observed Archi- 1
tect Crittenden wryly, would the ]
School Board be able to purchase 1
classroom space so cheaply. t
Butte Proprietor-—

a profane preface. Huffman said
he was going to kill the cook, and
lunged at him with the fork, Or
rin said.
The cook’s testimony continued
as follows: Somehow the fork got
out of Huffman's hand and he
grabbed fcr a French knife, again
threatening to kill. Changing to
a butcher knife, he threatened the
cook again. Orrin testified that he
was afraid- that he was certain
Huffman meant to kill him. When
the defendant brushed people
aside to get out to the dining
room—to go after a gun, Orrin
was warned by Horton—the cook
made his escape out the back door
and locked himself in his room.
He was later taken to the Matan
uska Hotel by his partner.
McCutcheon did not call upon
his client to testify, and said he
would offer no argument. He had
established that Orrin might have
struck Huffman after the pro
prietor had been restrained by
Horton.
U. S. Commissioner Dorothy
Saxton ruled that sufficient evi
dence had been presented to war
rant holding the defendent on
charges of the felony of assault
with a dangerous weapon. Bond
was continued at $3,000. The case
will come before the Third Dis-1
trict Court Grand Jury at its next'
session.

made a bid of $7,500 for the prop
erty.
Haugen has had five years of
communications experience with
the Alaska Railroad, where he
was assistant maintenance super
visor. His communications experi
ence in the States dates back to
1939.
Haugen stated this week that
telephone service for quite a num
ber of patrons was unusually poor
on the day he took over. On in
specting the board he found a
mass of lines loosened from their
connections and batteries not
hooked up. He worked until mid
night that night and late the next
, two before he finally got all the
lines in operation. He hopes to
have a “satisfactory” number of
cords in working order this week
—15 is his goal. He also hopes to
decrease noise and crosstalk from
phone connections by increasing
the voltage on the switchboard.
According to his opinion, the
switchboard has been operated on
onl3r half the voltage necessary
for the installation.
When the urgent work is com
pleted on the inside plant, he will
start working on the outside with
the object of getting rural phones
back in order.

Need Potato Diggers?
Any farmers in the Valley
who will need potato diggers
during harvest may leave their
names at the Co-Op and every
effort will be made to procure
the help for them. Co-Op Man
ager Fred Zieke said this week.
Growers desiring this help
should also specify the number
