Rare Alaska Collection
Is Lost In Cordova Fire
ANCHORAGE — A $25,000 col
lection of rare Alaskan treasures
i was lost in the fire that recently
destroyed the Lathrop Apart
ments and Empress Theater in
Cordova.
Dr. Will H. Chase, veteran Al
askan practitoner, said he was
unable to save his lifelong ac
cumulation of paintings, souven
irs, keepsakes, a large collection
of Alaskana, rare Indian handi
craft and artifacts when the
$100,000 fire struck Cordova last
month.
Dr. Chase said he had intended
to present them to the University
of Alaska Museum and had pro
vided for their transfer in his
will at the time of his death.
The fire which started in a tav
ern and pool hall next door spread
so rapidly that tenants of the
apartment building which also
housed the Empress theater were
barely able to escape. An explo
sion knocked out all of the win
dows and the flames were drawn
through the concrete and stucco
apartment house, gutting the in
terior.

Anchorage
Prisoner Asks
Transfer From
Overcrowded Jail
ANCHORAGE, (/P)—Judge An
thony Dimond has reserved deci
sion on the plea of a Federal jail
prisoner that he be transferred
to another more sanitary and less
crowded lockup.
Six attorneys argued the merits
of the plea by Ernest Pickens, 20,
who is being held on a robbery
charge. The attorneys pointed out
that the court has three alter
natives if it accedes to Pickens’
plea:
1. Transfer the prisoners to
other jails in the territory, pre
ferably in the Third Division.
2. Convert the Anchorage Fed
eral building basement to its or
iginal purpose, that of a Federal
jail.
3. Release the prisoners.
Thirty-nine men and one wom
an are in the Federal jail at this
time in space intended for 18 per
sons, the attorneys pointed out,
and are forced to sleep in shifts.
U. S. Attorney Earl Cooper told
the court he felt it had no author
ity to do anything about the jail
conditions. He suggested how
ever, that the prisoners be trans
ferred rather than released.
Sinatra and Gardner Shy
From Reporters After
Mystery-Shrouded Rites
PHILADELPHIA, (/P) — Frank
Sinatra and Ava Gardner stole
away to an undisclosed honey
moon retreat today after a mys
tery-shrouded wedding at an ex
clusive home in West German
town.
While the couple sipped cham
pagne and feasted on turkey Wed
nesday night, a score of newsmen
and photographers tramped the
wet pavemet outside the home,
hoping to talk to the bride and
groom or to take pictures of
them.
But the newlyweds would have
none of that. They sneaked in
through the back door and three
and a half hours later summoned
a half-dozen policemen in red
cars and a patrol wagon to guard
an escape route.
