"MiSS GRANT" IS
COMEDY SHOWING
NOW AT CAPITOL
Co-starring Lucille Ball and Wil
liam Holden. Columbia’s new com
edy. “Miss Grant Takes Richmond.”
is the comedy featured at< the Cap
itol Theatre. Featured players n
clude Janis Carter, James Glea
son, Gloria Henry and Frank Mc
Hugh.
Said to be the most hilarious
girl-takes-boy escapade of the year,
"Miss Grant Takes Richmond” tells
of the merry complications which
result when a "dumb" secretary is
hired by a bookie to work in his
real estate office which actually is
a front for his gambling activities.
Miss Ball plays the secretary and
Holden plays the bookie.
Lloyd Bacon directed this S. Syl
van Simon Production, from a
screen play by Nat Perrin, Devery
Freeman and Frank Tashlln.
TED HEYDER RETURNS
FROM MONTH'S TRIP;
ERNIE LACKEYS LEAVE
Ted Heyder combined his annual
vacation with business during a
month in and near Seattle, from
which he returned Tuesday by Pan
American.
In Seattle, he stayed with his
uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Henry
Meier, former Juneauites, and with
them he enjoyed many of the spec
tacular “Seafair” events. He was es
pecially impressed with the beauty
and fine showmanship of the aqua
cade at Oreen Lake.
Heyder took numerous side trips,
spending several days at a La
Push ocean beach resort, and go
ing to Mount Rainier. He said he
had never seen the mountain more
beautiful; there had been so much
snow that it still came right to
Paradise Inn.
Heyder, who is manager of the
■ Capitol Theatre, found much pro
fessional interest too.
He visited other B. F. Shearer
theatres—the Green Lake and Var
sity in Seattle, the Roxy in Everett,
and the Roxy and Tower in Bremer
ton. Heyder reports that the new
Shearer drive-in theatre near Ev
erett is “really something to see.”
j The largest in the Northwest, it is
marked by a highway sign which
outlines a totem pole of more than
I two-story height, in neon lights.
I Heyder didn’t forget Juneau mov
ie-goers. He was able to book a
number of top new pictures for pre
holiday faire. Among these are
“Father of the Bride,” "Key to the
City,” “Winchester .73,” and “The
Duchess of Idaho.”
In his absence, EJrnie Lackey
managed the Capitol. He and Mrs.
Lackey boarded the Baranof, going
to Ketchikan, where Lackey will
manage the Revilla Theatre.
The Lackeys consider themselves
especially fortunate, as they are to
live in the home of the former man
ager, Harvey Anderson, who is mov
ing outside. This is a hill-ridge home
with panormaic views of the city
and the water.
BANK DEPOSIT
INSURANCE SOON
TO BE DOUBLED
According to word received by
the Alaska Federal Savings & Loan
Association of Juneau, the recent
passage by Congress and signature
by the President of H. R. 6743, pro
vided an increase in individual ac
count insurance from $5,000 to $10,
000 in such institutions which are
insured by the Federal Savings &
Loan Insurance Corporation (FSL
IC) an instrumentality of the Gov
ernment. This increase will be ef
fective as soon as a similar bill,
now pending, is passed for the
increase of insurance of bank de
posits from $5,000 to $10,000 under
the Federal Deposit Insurance Cor
poration.
The bill recently enacted also
provided for a reduction from %%
to % % of withdrawable assets of
Federal Savings & Loan Associa
tions, as the annual Insurance pre
mium they are required to pay to
the FSLIC.
This substantial saving of one
third of such insurance cost to
Individual institutions was brought
about by the huge reserves built
up by the !4% premium paid an
nually during the past 16 years
since 1934 when such savings in
stitutions were authorized by law.
The combined losses of the ap
proximately 2900 such Federal Sav
ings & Loan institutions in the
U. S. since 1934 aggregated slightly
over five million dollars, which was!
considerably less than the premiums
: paid by such associations for in
surance. Such premium saving was
made effective July 1, 1949 and
will result in refunds being made
to all such Federal Savings & Loan
institutions.
