DINNER IS ENJOYED
BY JUNEAU GUESTS
The annual dinner of the Stikine
Sportsmens Association of Wrangell

given by the organization to date,

Assistant Regional Director; W. A.
(Bud) Elkins, game management
supervisor and Lew M. Williams,

awarded to Mrs. Jerry Neilson who
brought down a 164-pound buck.

speaker. He discussed the problems
of game conservation in the terri
tory and presented ideas for the
cooperation of organizations such as
the Stikine Sportsmen’s Association
in carrying out a desirable pro
gram. Talks were also made by

TRACY, STEWART,
AND FINE CAST ARE
IN CAPITOL PICTURE
"Give me a two-fisted action role,"
says Sptencer Tracy, "and I’ll be a
happy actor. It may be rough on me
physically but I can rest assured
that the picture stands a good
chance of meeting with public ap
proval.”
Tracy points out that action is the
prime requisite of a motion picture.
“After all,” he says, “the term,
‘movies,’ was coined for pictures
that move. Early-day pictures were
unblessed by spoken dialogue and
depended almost entirely on action,”
recalls Tracy, “but actually we loved
it. We knew the bruises we got as
part of the day's work would pay
big dividends in the long run.”
The star had a few bruises and
strained muscles to cope with dur
ing the filming of "Malaya,” too.
The adventure story called for him
to lead guerrillas' in a dangerous
operation through dense jungle, get
tossed about by giant waves while
swimming ashore, tangle with a
small army of Japs, and engage in
a couple of brawls. The tip-off of
what lay ahead of him in an action
way occurred in his very first scene.
He slugged James Stewart, his co
star in the picture.
Starring with Spencer Tracy and
| Jimmy Stewart are Valenana Cor
j tesa, John Hodiak, Sydney Green
street and Lionel Barrymore. This
feature is at the Capitol Theatre
for the last showings tonight.

DOUGLAS COUNCIL Mi l l s
The Dougins City Council met
last evening In the City Hall for
a regular meeting.
Councilmen, Dore, Boehl. Y r
shall, Shudshift and Ehrendreich
were present with Councilman Her
mann out of town.
Under reports of committees call
ed for by Mayor Pusich, the J'in
ance committee headed by Chris
Ehrendreich reported that aero cl
ing to appraisal by A. Canoli of
Juneau, the cost of restorin the
cannery to its former conrii' m
before the windstorm reei u lv.
would amount to $8,322.65. I his
amount is separate from any dam
age or loss of equipment or ma
chinery. Ehrendreich stated that
the cannery building itself wa in
sured for $6,000 and warehouses tor
$4,000. The amount the city will
be able to collect has to av. ait
the arrival of insurance adjusters,
he stated, who should arrive hi re
this week.
The finance committee also pre
sented the city with a new .set
of books authorized at the 1 st
Council meeting, and recommended'
that a chart of accounts itemizing
costs of specific city jobs be kept
in the forms provided with the
new bookkeeping syst cm.
Mayor Pusich expressed thanks to
Ehrendreich who stated that there
was no charge for any of the labor
involved in setting up the system,
only a small cost of new books in
volved. It was brought out that
city finances were not in good
shape and several outstanding notes
cn hand including one $5,000 note
owed to Mayor Pusich. It was also
brought out by the committees’
reports' that with the present city
evaluation the city was never
theless on a sound basis financially.

Councilman Arne Shudshift re
ported for the Fire and Water
Committee that the reservoir had
remained in good shape throughout
the freezing weather, also noting
that the newly installed fire hyd
rants were in good working order.
Shudshift recommended however
that all old hydrants should be dis
assembled and worked over, and
a portable steam pipe be purchased
by the city for use in either repair
ing water mains in winter or tak
ing out hydrants etc., from the
frozen ground.
Councilman Win. Dore reported
that four local men, Douglas
Wahto, Glenn Franklin, Joe Reidi
and Gordon Mills had volunteered
to stand fire watch, night after
night during the past heavy Taku
winds, and thought the city should
show appreciation by some pay
ment. Mayor Pusich asked Dore
and Shudshift to bring it up at
next Thursday's Fire Department
meeting for action, and to report
back to the city the recommenda
tions.
City Clerk A. J. Balog, reported i
that there was a total of $332.50
of outstanding water accounts as j
of December 1, some of which were !
by far past due.
