Through the efforts of Julian
} Hurley, U. S. Attorney for the
1 Fourth Division with headquarters
at Fairbanks, the malamute strain
of dogs have been admitted to reg
[ istration in the American Kennel
Club.
For several years Mi*. Hurley has
, been doing selective breeding until
1 now it is claimed he has the finest
string of dogs in the Northland.
Among the strains he has perfected
' is the pure white with blue eyes, j
Mi*. Hurley passed through Sew-1
ard today enroute to San Fran
i cisco, where he will represent the
United States in the case of U. S.
vs. Freihage, who was convicted of
manslaughter at Fairbanks, and
who appealed the case to the United
States Circuit Court of Appeals.
TOSSES HAT IN RING
Enroute to the States on a com- j
bined business and pleasure trip, i
Ray C. Larson, lumberman of An

the ring as a candidate for the Leg
islature on the Republican ticket,”
said Mr. Larson, “and am in the
fight up to my neck.”

[ LAKE FROZEN
, Howard Long, Kenai Lake resi
dent, in a telephone conversation
» with Mel Horner of the Overland
> Hotel, reports that Lake Kenai is
frozen to such an extent that boat
w travel is impossible. However, the
> ice is not solid enough to permit
r travel by dog team or other means
L on the ice’s surface so persons who
> desire to go down the Lake will
| have to go to Mile 29 and from there
i make their way to their destina
J tion. The freezing up of Lake Kenai
t is said to be a month earlier than
; usual.
