ANDRESEN HEADS
CONCERT GROUP;
CIRCUIT ACCEPTED
The interested public, meeting
last night in the City Council
Chambers, voted to continue the
Juneau Concert Association, elected
new officers and accepted the
Alaska Music Trail concert circuit
suggested by Maxim Schapiro.
The decision to continue the con
cert association, rather than form
a new organization, was made after
Ernest Ehler read the by-laws of
the three-year-old group.
Ehler pointed out that he had
resigned as President, the office he
has held for the past two years, at
the end of the 1949-50 concert sea
son this spring.
Howard Andresen was elected
president of the Juneau Concert
Association; Mrs. Carol Beery
Davis, Vice President; Mrs. Jean
Marsh and Miss Rose Maier, re
cording and corresponding secre
taries, respectively; and Mrs. Lee
Dunlap, treasurer.
Mrs. Betty McCormick was ap
pointed membership committee
chairman, a key position in the
association of which ticket sub
scribers are the members.
The concert circuit plan of Scha
piro guarantees a season of three
concerts in which five artists will
be presented—the performers he
indicated here recently, or others
of comparable quality.
Tentatively set to open the
1950-51 season is the appearance
of Luigi Silva, cellist, who lias been
enthusiastically received by other
Alaska audiences, and is highly re
garded in Seattle musical circles.
Hls playing has won ovations
throughout Europe and the United
States. An assisting artist will per
form in this concert, planned toi‘
October.
Other concerts would be by Desire
Ligeti, noted bass, with an assisting
artist, and Virginia Davis, whose
“portraits in song" range through
d^ma, comedy, romance, mimicry
and satire. Broadway saw her char
acterizations in “Call Me Mister.”
i(rs. McCormick presided for the
ejection last night and explained
the music trail plan. Miss Connie
Davis served as temporary secre
tary.
Last night’s meeting developed
from a previous one at the Gov
ernor's House, where the 20 per
sons present voted to let a larger
group at a later meeting (yester
day) take the final action.
Twenty-seven persons attended
last night. Besides those previously
mentioned, those present were Mes
dames Opal Shaimon, C. J. Ehren
dieich, Ruth Sterling, Dewey
Baker, T. J. Pyle. George Cleve
land, Earle Hunter Jr., Henry Har
mon, Qeorge Sundborg, Leonard
Berlin. G. D. Jcrmain. Kate Smith
and Ted Lupro; Misses Pearl Pet
erson, Ethel Finlayson, Margaret
Maland. Ruth Bader and Frances

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
LECTURE GIVEN HERE
At no time in history have men
and women been in greater need
lot compassion than they are today,
! Ralph Castle, Christian Science lec
turer, told an audience in the First
; Church of Christ, Scientist, last
1 evening.
: "Compassion, as Christ Jesus dis
played it,” he said, "conveys inef
fable tenderness. It is more than
j ordinary pity, kindliness, or mercy.'
| It is a deep desire to do good to
1 others, a feeling which preceded
, the actual physical healings.
“Today,” said Mr Castle, “this
same sense of comnass’on toward
I our fellow beings is requisite to
1 Christian Science healing.
| "On page 367 of her textbook,
| "Science and Health with Key to
| the Scriptures,' Mary Baker Eddy,
I the Discoverer, Founder, and Leader
I of Christian Science, writes, "The
j tender word and Christian encour
[ agement of an invalid, pitiful
I patience with his fears and the
[ removel of them, are better than
j hecatombs of gushing theories,
' stereotyped borrowed speeches, and
j the doing of arguments, which are
but so many parodies on legitimate
Christian Science, aflame with dii
ine Love.'
"And on page 365 she states, 'll
the Scientist reaches his patient
through' divine Love, the healing
work will be accomplished at one
visit, and the disease will vanish
into its native 110‘hingness l.r..
dew before the morning sunshine.’ "
The theme of the lecture is defi
nitely conveyed in its title, “Chris
tian Science: Its Reinstatement of
i Primitive Christianity and Spirit
ual Healing," for Mr. Castle con
tended that the application of the
teachings of Jesus in our daily lives
is the sole purpose of Christian
Science, and this, he said, of course
includes healing the sick by spirit
ual means, or by prayer, and re
generating the sinful.

ENEMY HITS
FROM REAR
IN YANK GARB
(Continued from Page 1)
I it expects the U.S. to develop a
hydogren bomb 1000 times more
powerful than the A-bombs dropped
on Japan. There was no indication,
I however, of an intention to use
J atomic weapons in Korea. Senator
McMahon <D-Conn), Senate-House
committee chairman, said both the
U.S. and Russia are moving closer
to perfecting a hydrogen bomb while
piling up "stacks of atomic wea
pons.”
Congressional leaders indicated
quick action on a Presidential plea
for $89,000,000 to start a “campaign
of truth” countering Soviet propa
ganda.
India Offers Aid
Both the United States and
Russia received notes from India
1 yesterday, and there was specula
tion that India was proposing step
to' attempt a peaceful settlement in
Korea.
European non-Communists an
xiously watched the progress of the
fighting in Korea, bat throughout
West Europe, the reaction seemed
to be that the Americans would take
the offensive in due time.
American and Australian war
planes rained death and destruction
on the North Korean front line
positions and their supply centers to
the rear, despite increasingly bad
weather. The mightiest strike was a
raid by nearly 50 B-29’s yesterdaj
on Wonsan, strategic North Korea
port 80 miles above the 38th par
allel.

5-1 PRACTICE ALARM
IS PART OF LONG DAY
FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
Considering the fact that most
members of the Juneau Volunteer
Fire Department had betm fighting
the big mill fire at 3 a.m. yesterday,
with little or no rest later, Chief A.
^Iinard Mill is very proud that
there was a 100 percent turnout for
the scheduled fire drill last night.
All the firemen who are in town
—all 27 of them—showed up at the
Subport for the two-hour worokut.
Company No. 2, of w’hich Roy
Nolan is captain, won the hose drill
contest. First, there was the ground
contest, to see which outfit could
:’.et water to a given point first.
Then the two companies competed
to get fire hose operating on a
roof.
While this was going on, “it just
happened" that a 5-1 alarm came in
from the far end of Seatter Tract.
Company No. 1 captained by
Johnny Morrison quickly and effi
ciently extinguished the fire—an
Orme packing case set ablaze in
the road. Both companies repaired
to the Fire Hall for relaxation.
