Remainder of the new fires was ,in the Fort Nelson area of the district. A total of 22 fires were burning today, two less than Monday, as 96 men and five bulldozers worked on mopping-up operations.
Hazard in the district has eased somewhat, a B.C. Forest Service official said today, but is still high.
Threat of thunderstorms, however, more than offsets the slight reduction  in the hazard.

TRAIL iCPi�Two. rivers rampaged at flood levels In the Kooteriay district today. ' The Columbia River, rising eight inches a day, continued to creep into low-lying sections of Trail today, forcing evacuation of 150 homes. It also threatened lo knock out a highway bridge and ferry services at  nearby Castlegar.
At Creston, CO miles east of here, the Kootenay River kept up its pressure on 50 miles of weakened dikes, protecting 50,-000   acres  of   I'ra'iiiki'nd.
Trail city council met Monday night to appeal to the provincial government.to declare a state of emergency In the area.
The council wired Highways Minister Gaglardl to authorize the declaration lo 'take emergency  measures.
Observers fear that the Columbia may sweep away the bridge across the river there, the main highway connection to southeastern B.C.
Monrlay night ttie river level was three feet below the bridge. A foot of water covered the bridge at the peak of the disastrous   104S  floods.
Jack Buchanan, civil defence co�onlinutor who ordered evacution of the homes, said merchants and residents should expect the river >to reach the 1948 level by the end of the week.

IN U.S.
WASHINGTON (AP) � Dividing 5 to 4 in two historic decisions, the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld two of the government's major weapons against Communist party activity in the U.S.
The decisions backed the tightest U.S. restrictions ever aimed at a group which purports to 'be a political organization. The court Monday upheld:
1.  A clause in the Smith Anti-Communist Act  of 1940 which makes it a.crime for a person to belong  to  any   organization knowing  that  it advocates  violent  overthrow  of  the  government.
2.   A  requirement   that   the Communist party register with the  U.S.  attorney-general  as  a )iippct   of   the   Kremlin.   This requirement   is   a   part   of   the 1950 subversive activities Control Act.

Kiwanians Ponder Merits of Tennis, Bowling Facilities for Club Project
Prince George Kiwanis (Nc-chako) Club has a problem. It is faced with two possible club projects � tennis courts and lawn bowling greens�and must decide which of the two to proceed with first.
Club President George Choban said today that some weeks ago the club decided to build tennis courts at Fort George Park.
"One of our members talked to members of city council ibout our plan and found Ihey vere all for it. Several alder-nen fell tennis courts were a letter   deal   as   lawn   'bowling
greens were planned for near he senior citizen's home by �ouncil."
LIKKI) GREENS Then, said  Mr.  Choban,  Bill
Woycik and Mat Briggs, Civic Properties and Recreation Com-lission director and assistant ircctor, came out in favor of ic greens.
"They    told    us    six    greens ould he built for about $1,000
omparcd to about $8,000 need-
d to build six hard-topped ten-is  courts,"   Mr.   Choban  said. Mr.   Woycik   also   said   lawn bowling greens would be more
 o   ahead   with   the
Ihe bodies for burial or creina- j popular than tennis courts. So. �ion,                                                I after  considering   this,   we  de-
cided   to greens."
The club's decision spurrec rcsidcnUs of 'the Millar addilioi into action and a petition was quickly drawn up and circu latcd.
The petition, addressed to city council, not the Kiwanis Clu'b, asked for development ol tennis courts in Fort George Park.
Among the reasons given for support of such a development were:
Tennis courts provide a long playing season, from early spring to  late fall;
�   Tennis courts require practically no upkeep after the initial cost has been met;
�   No  caretaker  is  required;
�   Tennis   can   be   played   by young  and  old  and  requires a minimum  of organization;  and
O Tennis provides a maximum amount of exercise for growing children, according lo physical education instructors.
"We feel tennis courts would serve more people than bowling greens," Mrs. L. A. Park, 1644 Cedar, explained. "We also feel thai in the long run they would be cheaper than bowling greens."
The   housewife,   one   of   Ihe
prime movers in drawing up the petition, said people of the area definitely favor tennis courts.
"We aren't particularly concerned about having the tennis courts built in Fort George Park," she said. "It would be nice to have them anywhere in the city."
STUDY, REPORT
The petition was presented to a city council committee-of-thc-whole meeting and was im-nediately referred to city eng-neer Bill Jones and the recrea-ion commission for study and �eport.
"Tennis  courts  are   included n  our over-all  plans  for Fort Icorgc    Park,"    city    manager \rran      Thomson       explained. But they have no priority and vc are doing other things first, uch  as  paving streets. "There is no crying need for tennis courts,  we already have some."   (Tennis  courts  arc   located on the west side of Central   on   Fifteenth.)
However, the petition has caused the Kiwanians to have second thoughts as to ju.st what should be their project.
"We're    still     studying    the wo," Mr. Cho'ban said. "If the city  helped   out   we   would   bo quite willing  to go ahead  with a  start  on   both  projects  and build  two  howling  greens  and j two tennis courts.
"Both arc on our agenda hut we'll need city help on them." The club will wait until council receives Its report on the petition before making its next move.
"Frankly," said Mr. Choban, "I don't know which way we'll move. But we'll have to do something .soon. Jt'.s gelli lg late."
