the courageous stand of the Ameri
can Indian against the inroads of
tlie White Man and his ever-wesi

f heep-grazing country.
The supporting cast is headed by
Louis Calhern in the contemptuous
role of a slick frontier opportunist
who becomes Lance’s enemy on first

lead admirably played by Paula

TO JOHN TROY
Blue skies and snow-capped peaks
formed a background Saturday for
! the dedication of Mount Troy, on
| Douglas Island, named by the U.
13. Geographical Department on
| Names, for Alaska's late well-loved
Governor and newspaperman.
A group of hikers from the Ship,
i Shank and Shutter Club had left
luneau at 8 a. m„ and hiked to
| the peak. At 3 p. m., an Alaska
| Con: tal Grumman took off with
1 Mi.'. Helen Troy Monsen, daughter
f the late Governor, who dropped
j i wreath on the peak as the dedi
ation ceremonies were carried out
e'ow by the Rev. H. E. Beyer.
It was a fitting ceremony to
(honor John Troy, who as newspaper
! .ditor, Collector of Customs and
Governor, had looked on and loved
Alaska's mountains for more than
15 years. <

i/hatles Eurdick, us istant regional
ioiester, and Mrs. Lew Williams.
The hi plane left the water and
limbed 1 ;• i'idly into the blue. At
he 1101th end of Douglas Island it
iad gained 3,500 feet and pilot
'fin old Bluomquist swung the plane
iround, skirting the jugged tops of
he Dou las Island range.
Impressive Sight
It was a thrilling and impressive
ight as he circled Mount Troy.
! ivc hundred feet below the hikers
were in a wide circle around g
aim which they had built four
feet high on the peak. Tire Ship,
Shank and Shutter flag, with red |
emblem,-flew briskly from the tup.
oi the cairn, held out by a stiff
breeze. As the plane roared over j
the gioup, Mrs. Monsen tossed out ]
a wreath of red roses, which landed [
20 feet from the cairn. Among the |
roses was a spray oi Alaska’s flower,;
the forget-mc-not, picked from Mrs.
Monsen’s garden.
Pilot Bloomquist circled the peak
three times, as the hikers below i
waved, the Rev. Beyer pronounced
the words of dedication.
Mount Trey is 2.09!! feet high and j
:s north of the Douglas Island : ki
trail.
Hike To Top
Twenty-four persons took the five
mile hiking trip' to the top of Mt.
Troy. Tony Thomas, representing
the Forestry department, E. L.
Keithahn and George Sundborg,
representing the Committee c:r
Names in Alaska, assisted the Rev.
Beyer, Ship, Shank and Shutter
Club president, in ceremonies at j
the peak. The group left the high
drool at 8 a. m., taking a leisurely
pace <to the third ski cabin where
they had lunch. They reached the
peak soon alter 2 p. ni. following
a trail which crossed several snow j
fields, and took them up the far '
side of the peak. At the peak a
tanner with SSS on a 14 foot pole
was erected in the cairn, and a
sign placed, "Mt. Troy, elevation j
2,983.” This banner can be seen j
from the Federal Building.
' Strenuous Trip
The walking trip was a fairly
strenuous one. The trail to the third j
ski cabin needs much improvement,

PARKE AND RABE
RIDE A WHALE!
II wasn't intentional but Tom
Parke an;! Bob Rube had a whale
ride Saturday afternoon.
‘It was the longest hour I ever
pent in five seconds,” Parke, en
forcement, ofl'icoi ul the Alaska De
partin';.! of ’luxation, said today.
Hate. v. n.> iv.-: ks at the Bureau

ITey put i’u ;:-f(.ot skilf overside
and wen- about 203 yards from the
m . r iodi.- in: the ralmon when
it catm aii i- i.-e. About the same
time tiie little skiff was violently
jarred by the nose of a whale
which cot under it and lifted the
-kill on- its back. Parke quickly
braced an oar back of the animal’s
dorsal tin while the two failed to
enjoy their brief ride.
The whale sounded and as a
partin'.-, gesture slapped the skiff
with its tail, ncaily swamping it.
By getting in the forward end the
two men kept tire boat afloat while
they rowed back to the Barbara
V, the salmon meekly tagging
along.
Ten camera-equipped guests a
toard the cruiser watched the en
tire act not one thought to click
a shutter.
The salmon was gently gaffed
and the skiff's broken ribs ex
amined.
