EVA McGOWN RETURNS
FROM HAWAII FULL
OF ENTHUSIASM
“Everyone should have a trip
to Hawaii!” Eva McGown declared
in her enthusiastic manner yes
terday when she stopped overnight
in Juneau enroute to her home in
Fairbanks after two and one-half
months in the Islands.
When Eva said she saw all the
sights, she meant just that, inclu
ding many other Alaskans vaca
tioning there. She flew over via
Pan American World Airways with
pilot S. E. Robbins, former Alas
kan, and returned on the S'. S.
Lurline.
“There was tremendous interest
in Alaska," Eva reported, “And 40
businessmen are planning an Al
askan trip next June. I'll be on
hand in Fairbanks to greet them.”
Mrs. McGown is a two-way sales
man in that while in Hawaii, she
was selling Alaska, and now home
again, she is extolling Hawaii.
While Eva made a trip back to
her native Ireland in 1947, this
was her first tropical journey and
she went for it like a prospector
on a new stampede. She learned
to relax, wear the bright flowing
Hawaiian garments, fell in love
with the music and spirit of the
country.
The thing that impressed her
most was the profusion of beauti
ful flowers in addidion to the
pervading courtesy of the people
there. “Just so many little court
esies . ...” she bubbled. “Of
course, it's good to be home again
where we have seasons,” she sighed.
Eve first came to Alaska in 1914
and quickly became a part of Al
aska. Ever since the beginning of
the last war she has been official
hostess for Fairbanks in charge of
housing for travelers and others.
Many an attic or basement has
been converted into a spare ren
tal room in the .face of her power
ful arguments.
For those who have lived in_
Fairbanks, Eva will be remembered ‘
by many for the many little things
she always finds time to do such
as take a bowl of hot soup to an
ailing sourdough, flowers for a
shut-in, toy for some child, hos
pital calls.
Everyone can tell her blocks
away by her alert hurried walk
and her hats! Yes, her hats with
feathers and veils, flowers and
fluff bespeak her bubbling person
ality and none can forget her
rich Irish br^ue with green sham
rocks drippinf from it.

JANE MMLIN
TO MC SINGERS
MARCH CONCERT
Mr.-. Don McMUlim tbet er
known as Jane) has emerged from
the past 18 months of not feeling
exactly up to par in strength and
energy, having produced in the in
terim an addition'to the McMullin
household by the name of gliza
beth, as a dynamic and forceful
personality.
In directing the March Concert
to be presented on Friday, March
9 at the 20th Century Theatre, Mrs.
McMullin has displayed a great
talent and knowledge of musical
comedy, as well as the classical
type of music.
In rehearsals she has been in
sistent on exactness of tone, blend
ing, and interpretation of the mu
sic and has worked with such tire
less energy as to exhaust even the
most robust made member of The
Juneau Singers.
The influence of this new Jane
will be evident in next week's per
formance as The Singers have cap
tured her liveliness and high spirit
which had been somewhat subdued
in the past year or two.
Mrs. McMullin will MC the
second act of the show from on
stage in the role of a singer for the
purpose of cueing the performers.
CHRYSLER GIVEN
CONTRACT; TO MAKE
ARMY TANK ENGINES

preparations for tank engine man

The U. S. Army has obtained the
large Michaud plant which was
built on the outskirts of New Or
leans during World War II, and it
has assigned this plant to the
Chrysler Division for tank engine
production. The present contem
plated production of tank engines
by Chrysler amounts to $100,000,000
A native of Louisiana, engine as
sembly specialist R. S. Bright, has
been appointed general manager of
the New Orleans Chrysler opera
tion, Wallace announced. Born in
Plaindealing, La., Bright was edu
cated at the University of Tennes
see and was graduated from the
Chrysler Institute of Engineering

The tank engine which the Chry

leans is A V-12 air-cooled power
plant designed and developed by
Continental Motors, Inc. Before
actual production can begin, the
New Orleans plant will have to be
completely reconditioned and re
tooled, Wallaae declared.
A work force of several hundred
men wfll be required at the Mich
aud plant during the make-ready
period, and about 3,000 persons wil!
be employed as production gets un
derway, with this number eventu
ally rising to, about 5,000.
It is expected that New Orleans

plant to develop the exacting skill;
needed in engine building.
