On the fifth day, Thebedeau ate his last food and set out for aid. He was 100 miles from Barrow but said he knew of cabins 58 miles away. The ther mometer on the plane registered 40 below ?cro.

Mr. Currie said that work was proceeding well but a decision must be made on the type of heating unit for the new sixroom school. The board was faced with choosing between a furnace using crude oil which needs a pre-heating unit or an ordinary, automatic oil furnace in which diesel oil can be used. Operation of the crude oil furnace, though cheaper to run, would mean hiring of an extra man, possibly two In extremely cold weather. The board decided that while a diesel-oil fed furnace would be slightly more expensive to operate, H would be fully automatic and trouble free, an important point in a place as far away from town as Port Edward. The board Instructed Mrs. M. Roper, school board secretary-treasurer to Inform architects that a fully-automatic diesel-oil furnace was required., Also approved for the new school was a four-foot wide sidewalk, a storage room and 50 feet more of 8-inch pipe to eradicate a drainage problem near the front of the school.

The department had been esked to limit the depth to 50 meshes this year. A number of organizations said increased efficiency of nylon nets would bring about ne lestrictive fishing regulations unless nets were reduced in depth. Mr. Sinclair said depth regulations will remain unchanged this year because many 60 mesh nets have already been ordered by fishermen and coult' not be changed without financial hardship. Fisheries scientists also report that fishermen can expect oni, one good run of sockeye on the Fiaser River this year. "Early runs will be practically non-existent in 1954," Lloyd Royal, director of the Pacific International Salmon Fisheries Commission, said here. "I; will be the deadest part of the four-year sockeye cycle." He said that the possibility ol a good run to the Adams River spawning grounds Is the only hope for the fishermen. "Even the gillnetters and purse seiners will be hard put to make costs during July, he predicted.
