P:ince Rupert Co-op's team is now credited, with two victories, and Metlakatla one, out of a three series game between the two teams. At the opening whistle Prince Rupert squad scored the first basket, only to be followed quickly by Metlakatla. From this time on Metlakatla scored steadily to pile up points.

When the Nazis are cleared out of Russia it is a L question just how enthusiastic the Russians will be to carry on the battle into the home of the enemy. The danger is that a stalemate murht develop at the frontier with both sides for the time being at least apparently satisfied. It is very important for us that the Russians should keep the Nazis busy in the east if our campaigns in the west hardly started as yet are to be successful. Russia must stay an active partner in the war just as she has insisted that we should be active in the west while she was fighting her battles on her own territory. We may believe that this is a matter which is receiving serious consideration and possibly an agreement has already been reached upon the course of action. There are many eventualities that one might conjure up in sequel of complete Russian victory over the Germans which now appears to be very much in prospect.

DATED at the Land Registry Office, Prince Rupert. UC., this 26th dtv of January, 1044 A D. ANDREW THOMPSON, Deputy Registrar of Tltlet, LETTERBOX NATURAL SWIMMINC POOL Editor. Dally News. As an Indoor swimming pool for Prince Rupert is being advocated and receiving much discussion may I take the liberty of using your paper to place before the people of Prince Rupert a scheme which I have had In mind for some time, not only to provide a swimming pool but to Improve the natural beauty of Prince Rupert. It is admitted that swimming Is an excellent form of exercise. Yet the majority of youngsters and adults who enjoy setting Into a bathing suit do so became of the desire to get the benefit of the sun's rays. I think medical authorities will agree with me on this point. One may observe the crowds that lie on the beaches In summer, many of them never going into thv water There is one fact that all thf people In Prince Rupert can rgree upon. viz. we could do with more sunshine, arid it is with this In mind that I offer 'he following suggestion: Investigate the possibility of constructing a natural salt wate pool. I have in mind a sultabls centrally located place f ir tiM purpose In the Udal flat at Hays Creek. I have spoken to several citizens of Prince Rupert regarding this scheme but they do noi agree with me that It ran br done. However, when I recollect hoi" as a boy I saw the development of James Bay flats In Victoria Into the beautiful area that the Empress Hotel now stands on, the development of False Creek flats in Vancouver into ar industrial area and the beautify ing of Stanley Park by creatin? a lake of Lost Lagoon. I see no obstacle, unless it be finances. to the development of Hay Creek flats into a beautiful natura! salt water swimming pool. I have no engineering exper ience but. when one standi on Hays Creek bridge and observe the surroundings, he Is Immedi ately Impressed with the possi bility of constructing a dam across the creek at the bridge and conducting the creek In a concrete conduit to the salt water, thus eliminating the Impure watef that flows Into the tide flat. Then, with a flood gate, the salt water can be stopped to that the area can be suitably cleared of debris and graded in order that at the dam end a depth of water suitable for young children could be maintained, then gradually getting deeper towards the railway 111L As railway trackage Is very close, gravel and sand could be easily obtained so as to make a suitable beach around the pool When completed the salt water depth could be maintained by i the flood gate or with a suitable pump. This Salt Lake would alve to I all Hie people of Prince Rupert, young and old, the opportunity of enjoying all the survhlr.e pos sible and at the same time be a place of beauty in Prince Rupert I would like to suggest that the mayor take this matter up with the city engineer and park board In an effort to get a tentative estimate of the cost of this undertaking. If beyond civic meani, a proposal could toe made to the government for assistance under a post war development program. R. C. BAMFORD, Here and There LMPORTFD SALT Before the war.
