representing the Juneau Yacht club,
flew to Prince Rupert yesterday and

Juneau.
The cruisers have 12 hours of
“lay-over” time in their predicted
logs for this second leg of the race.
This time is predicted on relative
distances with an approximate dis
tance of 325 miles from Prince Ru
pert to Juneau.'The cruisers were
granted 24 hours "lay-over” time in
the 580-mile log from Eremerton
Prince Rupert leg.
This free time is to provide the
boats an opportunity to pick their
weather, make fuel and grocery
stops and to eliminate night run
ning if desired.
Finish time is 1 p.m. Saturday
with Douglas Bridge as the finish
line.
Skippers and their crews are to
be honored at a banquet by the Jun
eau Yacht club Saturday evening at
7:30 at the Baranof. Awarding of
prizes will be made and all crew

given the visiting cruisers Sunday.
“It is not necessary to be a mem
ber of the local yacht club to at
tend the banquet,” said Jack Bur
ford.
Reservations may be made by
phone or in person at the J. B.
Burford store. Mariner Scouts are
phoning all yacht club members re-1
minding them of the banquet. The
yacht club is to take the scouts on
a picnic cruise later in the season
for their efforts at making the ban
quet a success.

"MOROCCAN OUTPOST"
American airplanes (top left) will soon be flying again from fields in
French Morocco, part of a new chain of air bases which will enable the
U. S. Air Force to help defend Western Europe. But, as shown jn the
new March of Time, “Moroccan Outpost," Morocco is restive under
French rule. Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Yussef (top right), nominal
ruler of the country and spiritual leader of its Moslem people, went to
Paris last year to demand independence. France refused, knowing well
the problems that Moroccan independence would raise. For despite
growing modernization and education, Morocco remains largely primi
tive and illiterate. Without the modern sanitation and medical care sup
plied by France, her native quarters (center) would be prey to epidemic
disease. Most of all, France is unwilling in these critical days to trust
Morocco’s defense to native leaders. Today World War II hero General
Alphonse Juin (bottom left), the French Resident General, has charge
of those defenses and wields the real power in Morocco, while a colorful
bodyguard (bottom right) keeps up the show of pomp for the Sultan.

cide." The grand jury said she fired
“unlawfully and feloniously."
Mrs. Ryan promptly posted $10,-,
000 bond and was released. Her ar
raignment was scheduled July 9. j
A $227,000 damage suit was filed
against Mrs. Ryan by the slain
youth’s father, Leonard D. Ray, Sr.,
for the 16-year-old widow, Mary
and eight-month-old daughter,
Shirley. ,
Mrs. Ryan has lived in Alaska
and Mexico since her husband’s
