SHUTTER CLICKS
’ ON JUNEAUITES
FOR LHJ FEATURE
Advice to those who would enjoy
•seeing their pictures in a national
magazine: Go right on with what
you are doing when the camera
fcblilbs flash.
* In markets, bank and shops or
as she pushes a baby-buggy along
- dbwntown streets—wherever Mrs.
Krasdovsky goes, photographer Ross
Madden is not far away these days.
And he is after candid pictures,
of how she and others look and
^act when there isn’t a cameraman
for miles. Madden is shooting in
k, both color and black-and-white.
The Krasilovsky family was sel
ected by The Ladies' Home Journal
for a feature in its "How America
, Lives" series—not as a typical Al
' aska family, "Oh, my no!’’ PhylWs
Krasilovsky protested.
“The Journal," Mrs. KrasilovsKTy
explained, "wants to show a couple
making a start here, coming across
Hhe continent to grow up with Al
aska. They want to show a coufle
who left a good home and good
families for a new life here.
“Believe me,” she said earnestly,
! “we will not let them publish the
article until we are sure that it
is an honest picture of our life in

Juneau—of the problems of hous
ing, medical care—oh. the millions
of things we used to take for
granted. We want to help make it
known that Alaska isn't just a lot
I of igloos and dog teams.”
Madden sees the assignment aJso
as an exposition of the numerous
adjustments in the transition from
cosmopolitan New York City to a
frontier country, and how an in
I telligent couple so transplanted ad
I apt themselves to the region they
| have chosen for their permanent
jhome. This, as he sees it, natur
ally centers around the problems
of home-making, especially for the
Ladies’ Home Journal feature.
Therefore, it will show the day-to
day living of Mrs. Krasilovsky.
Dorothy Cameron Disney, who
arrived Saturday to gather material
i for writing the article, also hopes
to stress, through the Juneauites’
experiences, opportunities for new
comers to Alaska.
The Krasilovskys’ very young
daughter, Alexis Willa, who was
born July 5, will round out the
picture, for babies do present extra
probems, don’t they? And they
are mighty photogenic, too.
Mrs. Krasilovsky is sure that the
high school romance of Phyllis
Manning and Bill Krasilovsky will
not be overlooked. They met while
both were trying out for the debate
team and, years later in Alaska,
j Phyllis said, "I was so glad when
Bill made it. What do you sup
pose his subject was? 'Opportun
ities in Alaska'.
“Coming here to live has been
I the realization of that boyhood
I dream. Even after our first trip
I here, people back at school called
j us that crazy couple that wants to
; go to Alaska.’ Like his classmates,
i Bill could have practiced in Con
[ necticut or on Wall Street, but it
had to be Alaska.”
That first trip here together tvas
between semesters at Cornell Uni
versity, where Bill was studying for
his LLD degree.
I worked Bill s way through law
school," said Bill’s wife. For two
years there, she was secretary to I
a professor in the Industrial Labor j
Relations School. Her home was i
in Brooklyn and his in Lynbrok, j
Long Island. They were married
in September, 1947.
The next summer, the Krasil
ovskys drove up in a little Crosley,
going to Fairbanks. There, says
Phyllis, "We nearly starved until
a nice family took us in for a week.
| “We sold the car and went to
j Anchorage, where I worked as sec
| retary for a construction company
and Bill was assistant advertising ]
manager for The Anchorage News.
We managed to get to Seward, and
i I worked as a soda jerk, but Bill :
just couldn’t get a job.
“We told the Alaska Steamship
Company people we were newly
weds and begged them to get us
out. It was funny—on the trip,
j Bill was a first-class passenger, but
| he worked as a longshoreman at
i every port where we stopped. We
saw Juneau during the boat stop
I and made up our minds then, to
I live here some day.”
! Bill Krasilovsky had spent the
| summer of 1946 in Alaska, during
j which, his wife relates, he was
advertising manager of the Alaska
I Sunday Press for six weeks, and
I worked also in Cordova—canning
j salmon and working for Radio Sta
I tion KFQD.
i While attending Cornell, Krasil
ovsky wrote Judge George W. Folta
about a position. At that time,
there were no funds for a law'
clerk, but shortly after the Krasil
ovsky’s arrival in July, 1949, funds
became available. Bill worked as
law cltrk for Robertson and Mon
agle, passed the Alaska bar exam
j ination and became law clerk for
Judge Folta.
Meantime, while she was on the
staff of The New Yorker Magazine,
Phyllis Krasilovsky had written am
using letters to a 4-year-old cousin
of Bill’s, John Schoen, who was
dying of leg cancer.
“When the family told me,” siifd
Phyllis Krasilovsky, “that they had
to read my ’Dear Johnnie’ letters
to him as often as seven times a
day, I realized I had a little talent
I in that direction. Before we came
»up here, I made a children's story

Ride the Mailboat Yakobi for an

east Alaska. Leaving every Wed

of the letters, and Doubleday and J
Company became interested.”
That book, "The Man Who Didn’t ]
Wash His Dishes,” was published j
by Doubleday Junior Books August !
3, and shortly will be available in
Juneau.
Phyllis Krasiovsky will be hon
ored by the Juneau Creative Writers
Group at an autograph party in
the Baranof Book Shop soon after
the books arrive. Mrs. Inez Gregg
expects the order momentarily.
As The Empire does not have a
book review department, only a
brief description can be given here.
Aimed at the three to seven-year
age group, “The Man, etc.” staits
with a pretty familiar situation—
dishes left unwashed—and carries
the predicament to the ultimate of
such disgraceful housekeeping, uii*il
the man is trapped picturesquely
by his own slovenliness. There is
a happy denouement, and a moral,
too. 1
The story is filled wtih the
rhythmic repetition that children
lbve, and the vividly bound little
book is amusingly illustrated by
Barbara Cooney.
The author will have a new book
for the same age group published
by Doubleday in six months. It is
titled, “Big Sister.”
“Imagine!” exclaimed Phyllis
Rrasilovsky. “Imagine—coming to
Alaska and having a baby and a
book, all in one year. Of course,
the baby is much more exciting
than any book!”
