FIRE DESTROYED
KENAl LAKE CABIN
Fire completely destroyed the
fine cabin of John Rice, at Mile
20, in the Kenai Lake region, early
Monday morning, according to de
tails reaching Seward from that ar
ea.
It was reported that Mr. Rice,
and a partner, lost their entire
winter's supply of food and fuel
in the blaze- They lost most of their'
personal belongings also.
The fire wras reported to the For- j
est Ranger station at Lawing and
they immediately proceeded to the
scene of the fire. Upon reaching!
the scene only the smouldering em- j
ters of the cabin remained.

ALASKA COLLEGE
READY TAKE CARE
OF ALL STUDENTS
Although the best information
from Washington indicates that the
Federal land grant college funds
may not suffer a reduction of 25
per cent the fact is, neverthless,
that the Director of Experiment
(Station, and the Director of Ex
! tension have been direced to pre
Ipare their budgets for the year
1933-1934 upon a 25 per cent re
duction basis, Chas. E. Bunnell, pre
sident of the Alaska College, has
informed the Gateway.
At a meeting of the Board of
Trustees recently President Bunnel,
! submitted a plan of reorganization
to meet a reduction of $12,500 or
■ 25 per cent of the $50,000 received
annually under the provisions of the
Morrill Act. This plan was adopted,
i Since practically all of the fund
of $50,000 has been used to pay,
salaries of members of the faculty
it was a question either of reduc
ing all salaries or of reducing the
number of the faculty in order to
j be within the limit of $37,500.
i The salaries were recently cut
10 per cent and it was not thought
; advisable to make further cuts so
' the alternative of dropping some i
members of the faculty and increas
ing the duties of those retained
was adopted.
The department of civil engin-j
i eering and mathematics will lose;
Instructor Fred Beeler. This means
that Professors Duckering and Hu
ber will have to carry increased
teaching loads. Mr. Beeler, a grad- j
ate of the College in the Class of
’31 has been with the College for i
two years. Prof. Cecil F. Robe will;
enter the graduate school of Har-;
vard and work for a doctor’s de
gree in history. Prof. Robe has
been with the College four years;
in the capacity of professor of
history. Two year leaves of ab-:
sence have been granted to Prof
essor Robe and Mr. Beeler.
Prof. F. M. Potts, head of the
business administration depart-:
ment is on leave of absence. It has
been decided not to make an ap
pointment to fill his vacancy. Fori
the coming year, Carl M. Frank-j
land, who is listed as instructor in
accounting will, in fact, be the;
head of the department. He will be
assisted by other members of the
faculty.
To succeed Miss Cecelia Robin
son, who for the past three years!
has been dormitory hostess and
instructor in Spanish, Pres. Bun
nel announced the appointment of
Miss Mary Walker, of Walla Walla,
[n addition to her duties as dormi
tory hostess Miss Walker will teach
the history courses formerly taught;
Glass Tops with Wire Bale, and with Glass
Screw Tops.
Also all accessories.

SS. NORTHWESTERN
STRVCK A ROCK
JUNEAU VICINITY
The SS. Northwestern, Capt. John
Livingston, of the Alaska Steam
ship Company, struck a rock near
Sentinel Island, near Juneau, at
3 o’clock Monday afternoon, ac
cording to details reaching Seward.
A hole was punctured in the vessel’s
i hull and the vessel was beached im
mediately near Eagle river.
The vessel was bound from Skag
way to Seattle and had about 80
passengers aboard. The passengers
were all taken off safely on a Naval
vessel and taken to Juneau. The
SS. Aleutian, which had just left
Juneau for the South, was called
back to Juneau, to take the North
western passengers through.
It was believed that the hole in
the vessel’s hull can be patched
sufficiently for the vessel to pro
ceed to drydock under her own pow
er.
Everyone in Seward is getting
baseball-minded. Last evening a
bevy of local girls played a game
on the old baseball diamond. They
plan to stage further contests when
the new diamond is in shape.
by Prof. Robe and such courses as
may be assigned to her in the bus
iness administration department.
Courses on the regular schedule
and not provided for by the ap
pointment of Miss Walker will be
taught by Professors Wilkerson, Ry
an, Henrickson, Frankl in, Dean
Patty, and President Bunnel.
In order to effect this adjustment
there will be no lack of cooperation
on the part of faculty members.
The problem arises not only for
Alaska Agriculture College and
School of Mines but for every other j
land grant college.
The problem as far as the Alas- ‘
ka College is concerned is solved
and all students are assured that
a full measure of service will await
them with the opening of College
on the 15 of September. As a mat
ter of fact the measure wil be heap-i
ed up for this, the 12th year of the j
College, in spite of the 25 per cent^
cut in Federal funds, is going to
be at least 25 per cent better than
any former year.
