NEIMEYER WITH
JUDY GARLAND IN
CAPITOL FEATURE
Joe Neimeyer, for many years
stand-in for Fred Astaire, is now
launching his own screen career in
M-G-M's new Technicolor musical,
‘‘In the Good Old Summertime,”
currently showing at the Capitol
Theatre.
It was during the filming of
"Easter Parade" that Judy Garland
and Neimeyer first became ac
quainted. The latter, formerly a
vaudeville actor, kept the cast in
such hysterics with his antics that
Miss Garland decided then and
there that if a future role came up
that fitted Neimeyer it would be his.
“In the Good Old Summertime”
afforded that opportunity, and it is
in the new offering that Neimeyer
makes his debut as a screen actor
along with Miss Garland, Van Jobr
son, S. Z. "Cuddles” Sakall and
Spring Byington.
12 LOCAL HALIBUT
BOAT TO FISH FOR
ALBACORE, SOUTH
The halibut schooner Sitka, pur
chased last winter by three young
Juneau fishermen, will head south
soon, to fish for albacore off the
Pacific Coast.
But the 87-foot Sitka won’t be
alone. At least 11 other vessels
from the Juneau halibut fleet will
also head out within the next 10
days to jig for tuna in the warm
waters off the California, Oregon
and Washington coasts.
Fishermen give as their reason
for the southward move the low
prices paid for black cod and the
cut in income due to the drop in
the values of fish livers and vis
cera.
The Sitka will have an advantage
over most of the other Juneau
vessels—its skipper Bill Odell has
had experience in albacore fishing.
He was a member of the crew of
the Juneau boat Dolores J., which
was one of the few boats whfch
went south from here after last
year’s halibut season.
“We’ll put four trolling poles on
the Sitka," he said. “That means
we’ll have 24 lines out.”
He explained that in fishing l’dr
albacore colored feather, nylon jigs
or rubber squids cover barbleSs
hooks. On normal gear, lines are
irom two to 20 fathoms in length,
with the shortest line inboard and
the longest at the end of the pole.
All trolling is surface trolling.
The albacore come north during
the summer, reaching the waters
west of Vancouver Island before
heading south again in the fall.
By Thanksgiving, albacore fish
ing is best in the waters west of
San Diego, Calif., Odell srfid.
The Sitka will carry four mSn
on the southern fishing venture—
co-owners Adell, Erling Oswald, and
Harry Sperling Jr., and engineer
Jack Gregory.
Trips will probably be short,
probably about 10 days, Odell said,
since the Sitka carries no refriger
ation equipment and ice will melt
quickly when the boat is in warm
waters. Most Alaska boats taking
part in the albacore fishing face
the same problem, he stated.
The Sitka had a "good halibut
season,” Odell said, fishing In Area
Three and marketing all but its
last load in Seattle.
Among the vessels which fished
albacore last year were the Dol
ores J., the Ruby, the Arden and
the Sitka, which at that time was
owned by I. Goldstein.
Other Juneau vessels which will
go south this year are the Sun
more, the Janett, the Sentinel, the
Norland, the Glacier Bay, the Pel
ican, the Oceanic and the Cape
Cross.
The Explorer departed from this
port July 2 for the albacore fishing
grounds.

RENT CONTROL IN
ALASKA CONTINUES
TO DECEMBER 31;
—
Increased responsibilities for the
Alaska communities in connection
with Federal rent control, which i
continues under the Housing and!
Rent Act of 1950. and which was ;
effective July 1, are included in |
the new law. it is stated by Walter i
E. Walsh, Area Rent Director-1
Attorney.
He said that the new law is sub- >
stantially the same as the old one
and that under it tenants continue j
to be protected against unreason
able rent increases and against j
illegal evictions, while landlords are
assured fair net operating income.
"The Office of the Housing Ex
pediter is continued to June 30. j
1951 by the new law and author
ized to carry on rent control ad
ministration through rent offices
’.ike ours,” said Walsh.
"However, even though the law
is extended one year, control will
continue after December 31, of this
year only if, before that date, city
officials take affirmative action to
declare that a shortage of rental
housing exists that requires the
continuation of rent control.”
He added that this affirmative
action to continue Federal rent
control after December 31 could
also be taken by popular referen
dum, conducted under local law. If
no affirmative action is taken, rent
control ends December 31.
The rent official pointed out that,1
as in the previous law. local rent
control may be ended at any time !
between July 1, 1950 and June 30,1
1951 by a resolution of the City;
Council after public hearing, or by |
recommendation of the rent ad- i
visory board substantiating a find- I
ing that the need for housing has j
been reasonably met, or by inltia- j
tive of the Housing Expediter.
Two changes in the new rent
law are—unincorporated areas aire '
given the right to request control
be continued beyond December 31st j
or to decontrol by following the
same procedures as followed by in
corporated cities, towns, and vill
ages in exercising local option, and
local option action no longer re
quires approval of the governor.
