ALASKAFEATURED
BY SOROPTIMISTS
AT CONVENTION
When 1,000 Soroptimists met in
Seattle, July 2 to 6, for the conven
tion of the American Federation of
Soroptimist Clubs, Alaska was well
represented according to Juneau
Vice President Bernice Morgan who
reported the convention to the local
group at the regular club meeting
in the Baranof Terrace room Friday.
The Alaskans were Impressed and
impressed other delegates by being
housed in the presidential suite at
the Olympic hotel, Soroptimist
headquarters. Here the Alaskan del
egates and their fourteen guests were
given special consideration by the
hotel, expected to have means and
room to entertain other convention
delegates—but they were all too
busy to enjoy their luxury, Mrs.
Morgan said.
Convention theme was "We Serve
to Live,” and Seattle councilman
Mildred Powell in the keynote add
ress at the Metropolitan theatre
where convention sessions were held
explained that the Soroptimist club
is the largest classified service club
in the world. “We are not a social
club,” she told the members, "We
are a service club. To us patriotism
is service, not words.”
Alaska in Miniature
Other speakers at convention
meetings were General Stoner who
addressed the group on the eve
ning of its United Nations program;
Pearl Wanamaker, long head of the
department of education in Wash
ington state, whose topic was "Edu
cation in a Free World;" and Port
land’s mayor, Dorothy McCullough
Lee, who addressed the installation
banquet. Fourth of July lecture was
by the Rev. William Hills of Van
couver whose address was “Keep
Them Flying at the Top.”
Alaskan delegates with a display
“Alaska in Miniature” in the Olym
pic Spanish ballroom got the con
vention off to a start July 2. The
plan of the display had been worked
out by Miss Lois Jund of the Juneau
club.
Mrs. Alice Thorne carried out the
arrangements with the aid of all
of the Alaskans present and Miss
Edith Gaynor of Seattle. Entrance
to the ballroom was by way of a
gangplank loaned by the Alaska
Steamship Company, and the dis
plays of Ketchikan, Sitka, Juneau,
Anchorage and Fairbanks followed
around the room.
Cotton Corsages
Totem poles, candies, printed ma
terial, fishing interests were fea
tured by Ketchikan. Sitka’s theme
was Russian, with ikons, native
baskets, native ceremonial robes
and a hand-carved mural by Peter
Nielsen of the Raven clan. A mural
of Mendenhall glacier by Alice
Thorne was the prize of the Juneau
exhibit, Alaska wild flowers which
had been sent south by Mrs. Frances
Paul, Alaska cotton corsages, made
by the club under the direction of
Miss Priscilla Parker and presented
to each of the 1,000 delegates and
punch for everyone comprised Ju
neau’s exhibit. Anchorage presented
native ivory, furs, wild flowers and
parkas and Fairbanks a miniature
mining camp with cabin and cache,
the ivory crown of the Ice Carnival
queen, white parkas. Pictures of

Among the visitors from a dis
tance were Miss Elizabeth Hawes
and Miss Robinson of London. Eng

j international organization for
j many years.
It was all a tremendous experi
ence, Mrs. Morgan said and she was
proud of the part of Alaska in tho
convention plans.
PHILLIES LOSE
HEARTBREAKER
TO PIRATE NINE
p »
(By the Associated Press)
The fuzzy cheeked Philadelphia
Phillies last night were the vic
1 tims of a one-in-a-thousand epi
j sode. It was the only major league
game yesterday, but it was a heart
breaker. I
The box score of last night’s Phil- j
adelphia-Pittsburgh game shows j
only the cold figures that the Pir- !
ates defeated the Phils, 2-1, in a
six-inning game terminated by rain.
What it fails to show is that the
Phils actually were leading the
Bucs, 3-2, when the rains came
down.
How come they lost? Because
Pittsburgh, the home club, was de
prived of a chance to bat in its half
of the seventh inning. Under the
league rules, the game reverts to
the previous inning if the trailing •
home club does not get a chance to
' bat. i
The Bucs, behind rookie Bill Mac
Donald, had a 2^1 lead when the
Phils came up to bat in the top
of the seventh. With two out and
pitcher Bob Miller on base, Eddie
Waitkus smashed a home run to put
his team in front. Then came the
showers. When at the end of an
hour and 10 minutes the rain
showed no signs of diminishing, the
game was called, thus wiping out
Waitkus’ homer. Previously the game
was halted for 34 minutes at.the end
of the second inning.
The defeat knocked the Phils out
of first place. Although they are
even in games won and lost, the
Phils trail the St. Louis Cardinals
by two percentage points. Brooklyn,
in third place, is a game and a half
behind. Boston’s fourth place Braves
trail by two games.
The Phils’ lone official run came
in the third when Richie Ashburn
slammed his ltlh triple of the sea
son to score Mike Goliat. The de
feat was Miller’s second against
eight victories.
WIL GAMES
Two games were played in the
WIL last night with final scores as
follows:
Vancouver II, Wenatchee 6.
Victoria 9, Spokane 6. ;
HOSPITALNOTES
Anthony J. Opstedal was admit
ted to St. Ann's Hospital yesterday.
Robert Reid, Leonard Matthews,

James Kasko of Haines was ad
mitted to the Government Hos
pital. Mrs. Evans Willard and hfer
infant daughter were dismissed.

"PERSONAL USE"
FISHING ABUSED;
RUNS THREATENED
The abuse of “personal use''
fishing In the Anchorage-Palmer
areas is threatening the salmon runs
In upper Cook Inlet, according to
Clarence Rhode, regional director
of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
Rhode returned over the weekend
from a lengthy survey of Bristol
Bay and Cook Inlet fishing pro
gress, during which time he re
ported “excellent cooperation” fiom
cannerymen and fishermen en
gaged in the commercial fishery.
But for the first time, he noted
that salmon were being caught by
the hundreds—perhaps thousands—
for what passed for “personal use."
The law doesn’t apply to catching
fish for one’s own use, and gear
may be set out in a closed area,
during a closed period, and no limit
is set up.
Men operating commercial set
nets, Rhode said, would leave their
nets in the water during the week
end closure, and call this catch “for
-heir own use."
This would mean that where a net
had been catching some 300 fish
daily the same net would suddenly
come up with around 1,000 on Mon
day, following the weekend shut
down.
These fish were sold rather than
kept for personal use, Rhode found.
“We can’t set an agent on each
one of these men to see that he
puts them down for his own use,"
he said, "there are too many fish
ermen for that."
No Fish Eaters Left
He said that inasmuch as no dog
teams are in the area now, or fur
farms—both of which used fish con
siderably for food, the only answer
is that these fish are bein'; sold
commercially, contrary to law.
Not only is the abuse confined to
Anchorage and Palmer, but also to
the Knik and Susitna Rivers, along
with the Kenai and Kasilof streams.
Biggest threat this abuse wields
is that much of this catch is done
in the upper reaches of streams Just
as the salmon are getting ready to
lay eggs, where under ordinary cir
cumstances they are safe. This nul
lifies efforts of the service to watch
escapement and keep it high.
Use of commercial gear for "per
sonal use” became at one point so
abusive that a policy was adopted
that a smaller net of a distinctive
color must be used, Rhode said.
“If we find much more of this,"
he warned, “we’re going to set an
agent on a fisherman who’s got
some 500 fish for his so-called own
use, and sit there and watch while
he puts them up in 48 hours, to see
if he’s honest about it.”
JOHN GAFFNEY,INSURANCE
BROKER, VISITS ALASKA
John Gaffney, president of Frank
Burns, Inc., insurance broker, is in
Alaska on his annual visit to his
local offices, and in Juneau visiting
his representative here, Stanley
Grummett.
Gaffney, who left Juneau for
Seattle in 1934, became president of
the Frank Burns company upon
the death of the late Mr. Burns,
prominent insurance man and
former Republican National Com
mitteeman in the State of Wash
ington.
An' annual visitor to England
where his company represents the
General Insurance Company of
America, Mr. Gaffney said his trip
last year was in the nature of an
Alaska reunion. When he was in
London he met A1 Homing, CAA,
Anchorage and Mr. and Mrs. Gre
nold Collins of Anchorage who were

When he leaves Juneau Thursday,
Mr. Gaffney will go to Anchorage
and Fairbanks to visit business
associates.

CORONER'S JURY
SAYS SURATT DEATH
WAS ACCCIDENTAI
U.S. Commissioner Richard J.
Suratt. found dead Saturday night
of a knife wound in the hallway of
his home at Wrangell, came to his
death by falling on a machete, a
coroner's Jury said yesterday.
Suratt, 55 years old, was clearing
brush a short distance from his
house, and was alone at the time.
His body was found by his wife
when she returned home late that
night.
Word of the decision reached
here early this morning, and was
announced by Deputy Marshal Wal
ter Hellan.
The Jury, composed of six men.
was called together by U.S. Commis
sioner Dale Hirt of Petersburg. The
verdict read that "death was caused
by falling on a knife while held in
the hand of the deceased.”
Investigation showed that the
commissioner apparently fell upon
the two-foot blade while he was
swinging it. A trail of blood leading
from where his body was found
enabled investigators to find the
knife. Oddity of the accident at first
led observers to believe he might
have met with foul play.
He is survived by his wife and
son, Richard Jr.
