DEAR FRIENDS
Many of you are probably wonder
ing what happened to “Dunking
With Druxman” this morning on
KINY. Well, it’s off the air and
probably permanently. So that you
will understand the reasons for this,
here are the various circumstances
surrounding the discontinuance of
this program. v
“Dunking With Druxman" was
cancelled immediately on Saturday
by the Seattle office of the Alaska
Broadcasting Co., presumably on
the recommendation of the local
manager. In its letter of cancella
tion, ABC informed me that I had
violated two paragraphs in our
agreement which provided for im
mediate discontinuance if I should
commit any acts "as liable to
jeopardizing station operation, good
will or good bus.;; ess, or license or
equipment.''
However, the notice of c;tr c-ella
tion did not specify what had been
done except to state thp.t these
i two paragraphs had been violated.
Based on other sources, it is my
opinion that the program was dis
continued specifically because of
editorials against gambling and lax
law enforcement and indirectly by I
previous editorials against local'
communist activities and ineffici
ent government. It Is also my!
opinion that none of these editorials
could have been detrimental to the
station.
There was absolutely nothing in
our agreement to prohibit such edi
torializing. As a matter of fact,
I had been editorializing from the
beginning of this program even
before a new agreement was made
last year at this time. However.
Mr. Wagner, the station owner, has,
at various times, requested that I
cease editorializing. These requests
have always followed complaints re
ceived by the station from those
affected by the editorials. There
have been exactly six complaints,
to my knowledge, in the past year.
These six persons or groups appar
ently have a lot of influence.
I am no crusacer ... I have
no desire to clean up the town.
I like Alaska pretty much the way
it is. I do want, however, to state
my own opinions on certain sub
jects that do affect the welfare of
our community and I refuse to
back down from this point when
I speak with facts and without
libel. To support the accuracy of
my statements, I might point out
that no libel suit has ever been
filed against me or the station.
You folks have been more than
kind by your interest in keeping
this program on the air. Many of
you have already written letters to
Mr. Wagner protesting the cancella
tion. Others have asked me what
to do about it. Frankly, I can offer
no suggestions at this time because
I do not wish to continue broad
casting on KINY under the present
circumstances.
It isn't necessary to remind you
of the difficult personal schedule
necessary to make this broadcast
each day . . . that goes without
saying. Most of you do not realize,
however, that the daily program re
quires another four hours of pre
paration ... a total of six hours
every day on this activity which is
far from profitable to me because
there is only a limited amount of
revenue possible from advertising
in a small community. Even after
mentally charging off part of the
time and expense for advertising
Fiobof

DISASTER!
It favors no race — no creed, It strikes at rich and poor . . .
at young and old. It may strike AT YOU NEXT! That’s why
everyone must be ready . . . why you must keep your RED
CROSS ready! Give . . . give generously ... to be sure that
the Red Cross will be at hand whenever needed. Mobilize for
Defense . . . now, through your RED CROSS!
Let’s Be Prepared!
SUPPORT JUNEAU’S
Red Cross Campaign
Now in Progress
my other business activities, the
financial return remains far from
attractive for the effort involved.
As a matter of fact, If the pro
gram had continued, I would have
had to employ someone to help me
in my office in order to help me
take care of my other business
properly and, I hope, profitably
Without the broadcast, I can handle
my other business without this ad
ditional expense.
On the other hand, the week be
fore the program was cancelled,
some of my advertisers had agreed
to an increase in rates which would
have helped to overcome enough of
the financial loss to make the deal
a little more attractive.
Despite all of this, let me assure
you that it has really been a
pleasure to serve you these past
21 months and, in many ways, I
regret that the program has to end
in this manner and at this time
Many, many thanks to all of you
for your support ... to the local
businessmen who have advertised
on this program . . . but, especially
to you folks who have listened and
given your support to the program
and to the advertisers.
I hope someday to broadcast with
you again but under more favorable
circumstances. In the meantime,
I shall devote more time to my
other business activities, live a
normal life for a change with Mrs.
D. and continue to live in happi
ness at "The Lost Chord."
Thanks again for your "Dunking"
with me.
Sincerely,
BOB DRUXMAN.

MISS CARLETON U
LOVELY BRIDE OF
JAMES D. ROLISON
Mirs Wilma Carleton became the
bild» of Mr. James Douglas Roli
so.i. Jr. at a marriage ceremony
performed by Judge Gordon Gray,
U. S. Commissioner, at 8 o'clock
Saturday evening in the Hotel
Juneau. The wedding was attended
by close friends of the couple.
The attendants were Mrs. Stan
ley Tutzke and Lieut. Robert Bec
ker.
For her wedding the bride wore
a suit of gray gaberdine. Her hat
was white with lime green flowers
and veil and she wore white gloves.
Her corsage was of white carna
tions and stock.
The matron of horcr wore a
suit of the new spring bra*n shade
with a matching hat. He. corsage
was of pink carnations.
Following the wedding ceremony
a reception was held for the bridal
couple at the home of Lieutenant
and Mrs. Becker in the Senate
Apartments, attended by about fifty
invited friends.
The bride's table was lace cov
The wedding cake and tall white
tapers centered the table on whifch
tapesr centered the table on which
were vases of stock.
The traditional first cut of the
cake was made by the bride and
bridesgroom and was then cut for
the guests by Mrs. Becker.
Mrs. Rolison is the daughter of
Mrs. L. Herman Moore of Little
Rock, Arkansas. She came to Ju
neau a year and a half ago and
has been a beautician a; Lucille s
Beauty Salon.
Mr. Rolison is the son of Mr.
James Douglas Rolison, Sr. cf Ter
re Hautte, Indiana. He had resided
in Juneau the past five years and
is presently with the Red Dog Bar.
The couple will reside in Juneau
and will be at home in the Ellin
gen Apartments and Third and
Gold Streets.

emergency clause was adopted 20-1.
Also passed during the morning
session of the House was H. B. 27, re
pealing the Public Employes Retire
ment System Act, enacted by the
1949 Legislature, and appropriating
$25,000 for monthly retirement pay
ments to those now retired under
the Act. Bills now before the Legis
lature would place Territorial em
ploys under the Social Security
program.
Saturday Session
In a Saturday session that lasted
until 7 p.m., the House passed 11
bills, including one that had failed
of passage on Friday, and tabled
another.
Laid on the table was the Kay
Scavenius bill creating a Terri
torial Department of Police. The
vote on tabling the bill was 12-10.
Passed by a 14-8 votes on Rep.
Pollard’s reconsideration was H. B.
71 which defines, for the purposes
of liquor license petitions outside
of municipalities, a resident as a
person “who shall have been physi
cally present, living and residing
within the two-mile area, for more
than six out of the 12 months im
mediately preceding the filing of
the petition.”
Senator Barr’s bill to provide for
the zoning of airports and to pre
vent the building of obstructions
near them, was passed by unani
mous vote. Early passage of the bill
had been urged and Avlatlen Direc
tor Tony Schwamm told the House
that electric power lines have been
planned which would block the ap
proach to Merrill Field at Anchor
age.
Two In Morning
During its forenoon session on
Saturday the House passed Rep.
Scavenius’ bill empowering Public
Utility Districts to construct sewer
systems and the Kay-Conright
Metcalfe bill to amend the lobby
ing laws. The latter bill now con
tains the additional provision, not
in the original, that lobbyists must
file a non-Communist oath with
the Auditor, and prohibiting lobby
ing by members of a Communist,
Fascist or suberversive organization.
House Bill 82, reducing hair seal
bounties to $4 and considerably
shrinking the area in which bounty
hunting is allowed, was held over
until this week after it became evi
dent that it would run into trouble
The bill cuts off the bounty area
just above Bristol Bay, excluding
the northern part of Bering Sea
and the Arctic Coast.
Rep. Franklin, pointing to nearly
$300,000 in appropriations required
to carry out the Act during the past
two years, commented, “if we go
on thus way we’ll break the Terri
tory.” Hu suggested, too, that there
is no commercial fishing to be pro
tected in upper Bering Sea and the
Arctic, and that the bounty was de
signed main. ;' to protect commercial
fisheries.
Extend Boundaries
Rep. Weils, of the Second Di
vision, offered an amendment tc
extend the bounty area to include
the Norton Sound and Kotzebue
Sound areas.
“It is unfair to the Second Di
vision to eliminate it from these
bounties,” said Rep. Frank Degnan,
also of the Second Division. “We
depend upon these bounties for a
part of our living. If this is passed,
we will be breeding the seals and
the bounties on them will be col
lected somewhere else.”
By unanimous consent the bill
was held over, with Rep. Wells'
amendment still pending.
The Barnes-Gundersen bill re
lating to the Aid to Dependent
Children program of the Welfare
Department and increasing maxi
mum benefits was passed with
amendment.
The bill provided for increasing
the initial benefit from $50 to $80
a month and increasing benefits
for additional children from $25 to
$30 a month, both figures maxi
mums.
At the request of the House, Wel
fare Director Henry Harmon ap
peared briefly to explain the pro
gram and its needs. The House
voted to drop the $80 maximum to
$70 and passed the bill by 19-3.
Fireworks on Fireworks
H. B. 84, introduced by Rep. Hen
drickson by request and prohibiting
the sale, transportation or use of
fireworks in the Territory, except
when displayed under the control or
direction of a municipality or other
public body, got some neatea op
position from the start.
Rep. Scanvenius moved to table
the bill and lost by a 3-19 vote.
Amendments to make the act effec
tive on July 5, 1951, and to require
the Territorial Treasurer to buy and
destroy all fireworks now on hand
in the Territory also failed.
The bill passed by a 15-7 vote. It
does not carry an emergency clause
and w'ould become effective 90 days
after approved by the governor.
Unanimously approved were bills
to refund $9,173.38 to the Travelers
Insurance Company for excess tax
payment and appropriate $7,700 tc
compensate U. S. Commissioners for
recording and reporting vital sta
tistics records.
Also approved were H. B. 96, re
lating to adoptions; H. B. 97, relat
ing to guardians and wards, and
H. B. 106, to establish a Uniform
Trust Receipts Law.
New Bills
Reps. Miscovich, Gasser, Mac
Kinnon and Laws introduced a bil
to abolish the Alaska Development
Board and the bill very nearly
brought House business to a stand
still.
Rep. Kay moved to table the bill
and Rep. Miscovich asked for r
call of the House. Since Rep. Locken
was absent and in Petersburg and
Rep. McCutcheon was absent and
in Anchorage, the call would have
stopped all preceedings until the
absent members return.
Kay and Miscovich reached ar
agreement, however, and both the
call and the motion to table were
withdrawn.
Rep. Kay introduced a bill relat
ing to seasonal employes under the
Employment Security Act, the Com
mittee on Ways and Means intro
duced a bill amending the law re
lating to qualifications of self-in
surers under the Workmen’s Com
pensation Act, and Reps. Barne
and Gunderson introduced a bil
providing that half of the woli
and coyote bounty appropriation foi
the coming biennium shall be ad
ministered and expended by the
Fish and Wildlife Service in suppon
of its program to control the pred
ators.
