TEEN AGERS NEED
A BETTER BREAK,
GORDONTELLS P-TA
The world and soul of any Teen
Ager is as high and as wide as the
soul of the adult with whom he is
most cloesly related is high and
I wide, members of the Parent
Teacher Association were told by
Zach Gordon, Director of the Ju
neau Teen Age Club, last night
Gordon, former USO director and
for many years prior to World War
II associated with youth groups in
Philadelphia, was the speaker at a
meeting of the P.-T.A. last eve
ning in the High School study
room and his talk w’as on “Some
Observations of Yuth.”
Age of Confusion
Contrary to the common belief
that the so-eaiicd teenage is a care- |
free and happy period of an in
dividual’s life, it is a particularly
trying and confusing age beset with
fears and worries and to reach
a well balanced adulthood the
person is in need of understanding
and the constructive friendship of
the adult world and which in too
many cases is sorely lacking, Gor
on said.
The true age of adolescence is the
period at 13 and 14 years of age,
Gordon pointed out. One hundred
years ago adolescence was a period
about one and a half years. Des
pite the fact that after 15 years
of age the individual is biologically
an adult is given little considera
tion in our present society which
demands that contrary to nature’s
determination the period of adol
escence shall be carried out until
the individual is 19 or 20 years
of age.
Info The World
Treated with condescension and
in too many instances lack of res
pect during this period the teen
ager is then thrust out into the
world and expected to take his
place as a fullfledged adult.
Teenagers, Gordon said, are sup
posed by the adult world to be a
group of selfish, self centered and
hard boiled persons. The exact op
posite is true, he declared. Although
they may give the wrong impres
sion because they are at an age
when the intent of the moment is
most important, they are in reality,
tender and kind and particularly
sensitive.
Need To Be Loved
In pointing out How Not to
Cheat a Teenager, Gordon said
that what young people need most
is to be loved. They are desperately
hungry to be loved and to be res
pected not only by adults but by
their own group as well. They
want to be admired and to feel
that they are secure, to be related
to some group or work that is im
portant and that gives them a
feeling of belonging. The teenage
boy and girl want to be themselves
and to be respected for themselves.
Condescension on the part of the
adult to the teenager is one of the
great tragedies in forestalling an
understanding between the two
groups.
Jealous Adults
Gordon said that adults for the
most part are jealous of the teen
agers, theoretically because he be-e
1 lieves the teenager to enjoy a life
free of responsibility and filled
with a carefree enjoyment of life,
which as he had pointed out, he
said, is certainly not the true state
of the teenage world.
Some of the most striking ex
amples of behavior in the adult,
in cheating the teenager are shown
Gordon said by drunkeness in par
ents, many re-marriages on the
part of one or the other parent, or
both lack of parental confident#
in the child, lack of a show t*
affection, lack of adult responsib
ility toward the adolescent.
In answer to questions from the
audience Gordon said he did not
believe the teenager is much af
fected by lack of a substantial
economic background when the
home is good, n economic wuu»«.o
arise from durnkeness on the part
of the parents the child suffers.
Happy Homes
It is not always the fault of the
parent when a child “goes wrong."
There can be other contributing
factors but Gordon said it is very
seldom that a child “goes wrong ’
when the home is happy.
Hand of Fellowship
Young people need to have time
to be together in their own age
groups.
The teenager has all the poten
tialities as an adult but no exper
ience or background for living and
it is in this fact they need the
help, understanding and neighbor
ly friendship of the adult.
Anyone who so desires can be
indispensable to some young per
son if he will put understanding
and the desire to help first.
Any community can develop good
will and leadership among adults
towards being essential to the
welfare of the adolescent.
“The Teenagers deserve a better
break than they have received from
most of us adults,” Gordon said.
“We are very proud of our coun
try and of our American way of
life but we should look to our
stewardship. It is within our power
to bring out the best in our teen
agers. Just as the Boy Scouts of
America aim to put strength in
Democracy, we can aim to put
heart in democracy.”
Preceding the talk by Mr. Gordon
Parent-Teacher Association Presi
dent Florence Oakes announced
that the dates for the show at a
local theatre for the student schol
arship fund have been tentatively
set for March 13, 14 and 15.
The Association by a unanimous
vote accepted the offer of the
Board to be of any assistance re
quired in the Juneau Civiliah De
fense program.
The room attendance award was
won by Miss Rosalind Herme’s
fifth grade.
Following the meeting refresh
ments were served in the high
school domestic science rooms by
the mothers of the fourth grade
students under the general chair
manship of Mrs. Niel Fritchman.
In charp". were Mrs. W. E. Elkins,
chaiman and Mesdames E. C. Haw
ley, Samuel McPhetres, T. J. Pyle.

ALASKA STEAM
ANNOUNCES '51
SHIP SCHEDULE
Improved itineraries and a new
sailing time highlight the Alaska
Steamship Company 1951 cruise
schedule just announced, H. N.
Peterson, general raffic manager
of the line, announces.
All passenger vessel departures
from Seattle, effective with the
sailing of the steamer Denali, Jan
uary 19, are set for 4 p.m. instead
of 5 p.m. as heretofore.
The new schedule outlines sail
ings through September 21, 1951
with departures each Friday and in
addition, a Wednesday sailing each
week during the peak of the tour
ist season, June through early
September.
"As more and more people come
to recognize the splendid cruise
possibilities of May and the period
from Labor Day through early i
October, we anticipate increasing
our service during these periods,”
Peterson said.
The steamers Alaska and Denali
will sail on successive Wednes
days and the Aleutian and Baran
of on successive Fridays.
Passengers making the round trip
on either Wednesday steamer will
have opportunity to visit ;two Al
aska capitals—the present capital
of Juneau and the former capital,
Sitka. The Denali will also call at
the yet earlier capital of Kodiak.
The complete summer itinerary
of the Alaska includes Ketchikan,
Petersburg, Juneau, Seward, Val
dez, Cordova, Sitka and Ketchi
kan. The Denali ports are Ketchi
kan, Sitka, Seward, Seldovia, Kodi
ak, Juneau, Petersburg and Ketchi
kan.
Ports of call of the Aleutian will
be Ketchikan, Juneau, Cordova,
Valdez, Seward, Juneau, Wrang
■gell and Ketchikan. The Baranof
rfprts are Ketchikan, Wrangell,
Juneau, Seward, Valdez, Junleau
and Ketchikan.
The popular Golden Belt Line
tours, covering the interior of Al
aska through the Seward or Valdez
gateway, will be available in con
nection with each Alaska liner
this year. The port of Valdez was
added to the itinerary of the
Baranof to help meet the de
mand for these trips.
"This should be the Alaska year
for American tourists,” Peterson
said when discussing the schedule.
“That tremendous northland has
experienced greater growth In the
last ten years than any other sec
tion of the United States. We are
planning for a big season in 1951
and expect to carry more passeng
ers than we have in any year since
the war.”
In addition to regular year around
weekly pasenger service, the Al
aska Line offers frequent freighter
schedules.

JOHN GARFIELD IS
STAR IN FEATURE
AT 20THCENTURY
A new climax In dramatic enter
tainment starts tonight at the Gross
20th Century Theatre. Jjhn Gar
field and Lili Palmer a:e starred in
the dramatic “Body and Soul,” a
smashing epic of the fight ring.
Garfield portrays the son of a
poor East Side family, when the
accidental death of his father
leaves the family destitute, Garfield
becomes a professional boxer over
the protests of his mother. Ann Re
vere.
Lili Palmer, his sweetheart, en
courages him, and under the guid
ance of Joseph Pevney, his pal, Gar
field becomes the leading chal
lenger for the middleweight title.
In order to fight, Lee, the champion,
is compelled to sell 50 percent of
himself to Lloyd Goff, a crooked
promoter, who controls Itg-timc
boxing. Garfield wins the title from
Lee, a physical wreck, and Garfield,
learning the truth, cares for him.
Success goes to Garfields head, and
for the next several years he leads
a gay life with Hazel Brooks, a
blonde gold-digger, and is con
stantly in debt to Goff. He becomes
enstranged from Lili and his mother |
because of their insistence that he
quit the fight game, which is ruin
ing his character. Meanwhile, both
Lee and Pevney meet their deaths,1
with Goff the indirect cause of j
their demise. Heavily in debt to
Goff, Garfield is eventually forcod
by the promoter to agree to lose his
title in a fixed fight, and is even
given $60,000 to bet against him- j
self. From then on the climax is!
reached with all the thrills ever
;een in a fight picture on the screen. |
