of Alaska. While on his fishing trip I
to Taku Lodge Friday he saw two I

sides numerous ducks and geese. He
said that he and his two sons, one

ONE OF THREE TERR.
CITIES CHOSEN FOR
PEACE OFFICER MEET
The Northwest l’eace Officer As
sociation board of directors has
tentatively selected Juneau, Ket
chikan or Anchorage ns the three
Alaska cities irom which the 1951
| convention site should be chosen!
according to an article in the April
May issue of "Bulls Eye,” the or
ganization's official publication.
Jim Percell. Jr., a member of the
association’s board of directors and
residing in Portland, is scheduled
to arrive in Juneau June 6 on a
tour of the three cities in an effort
to help choose the one at which
I the convention will be held. Four
l states are in the association Mcn
5 tana, Idaho, Oregon and Washing
I ton.
i An evaluation of the three cities
from the standpoint of air and boat
connections, hunting, sightseeing,
and frontier flavor is given in the
article.
"The attraction Juneau holds for
travelers is not due entirely to its
strategic importance,” the article
states. "The charm of Juneau is
rather a combination ol things—a
friendly warmhearted people—a city
where tall buildings, excellent clubs
and fine restaurants mingle easily
with the rough-and-ready pioneer
spirit that still prevails throughout
