Big Night
For Elks
Wednesday
Last night was a big night for
members of Juneau Lodge No. 420,
BPO Elks. It was a big night in
several respects, first because Dis
trict Deputy Grand Exalted Ruler
Wilfred C. Stump paid the first
visitation to any lodge in Southeast
Alaska. The honor went to the Ju
neau lodge as the Mother Lodge
of all Alaska. In addition, it was
DDGER Stump’s birthday.
There was an impressive’ initia
tion ceremony conducted by Exalted
Ruler Leroy West and the Juneau
officers followed by an elaborate
fried chicken "come and get it’’
feed with shrimp salad and all the
fixings—all planned and arranged,
by Bob (Buck) Faulkner.
Elks heard praise for the local
lodge by DDGER Stump in one of
the most remarkable talks ever
made by a visitor. In addition to his
message from the Grand Exalted
Ruler, Stump reported that the Ju
neau lodge stood far ahead of all the
other Alaska lodges, in growth in
membership, activities and especially
in youth program and charities. He
stated the Juneau lodge’s outlay in
these two activities last year totalled
$30,000. There were so many inter
ing facts explained regarding Ju
neau Elk's progress that local mem
bers were themselves astonished.
At the close of the talk, a rising
vote of thanks was given the speak
er. It was revealed that Mr. Stump
was also celebrating his "39th”
birthday ahd right away, a birth
day cake, with elaborate trimmings
was wheeled into the lodge room
and suitably presented while Elks
sang “Happy Birthday.”
Those initiated were Thomas R.
Van Wert, Edward J. Dull, Rich
mond C. Johnson and William H.
Flint.
Those engaged in serving the
luncheon, besides Ghiet Chef Faulk
ner, included Rudy Krsul, Dr. John
H. Geyer, and Bob Herbord.

'Down with
Britain'Cry of
Egyptians
CAIRO, Egypt, Oct. 11— Uft —
Shouting Egyptians, demanding the
ouster of British troops from Egypt,
demonstrated against Britain today
for the second successive day but
this time there was no violence.
Heavy police escorts kept order
as a crowd of thousands paraded
through Mustafa Kamel Square,
then moved on to the larger Ibra
him Pasha Square to hear speakers
shout:
“Down with Britain. We want the
British to get out of our country.”
Leading the crowd, Sudanese stu
dents at two Cairo universities cried
"down with foreign domination—
we want one king, one crown, one
Nile."
After streaming past the palace
and cheering King Parouk the
crowds dispersed without incident.
Anti-foreign mobs yesterday
smashed British and French busi
ness offices, hurled bottles looted
from American soft drink distribu
tors' trucks, and set fires.
The demonstrations are the pro
duct of violent public support for
the plan of Prime Minister Musta
pha Nahas El Pasha to oust Brit
ish troops from the Suez Canal
and take full control of the jointly
ruled Anglo-Egyptian Sudan.

There was a place at the inn,
but no other doors were open for
the pet kitty of Major and Mrs.
Jack McDonald.
The McDonalds arrived in Juneau
Tuesday for the Major to assume
duties in the offices of ACS.
Mrs. McDonald was sobbing gently1
in the offices of Pan American Ail - ]

made preparations to send the cat
back by itself.
The McDonalds were cheeked in
at the Baranof Hotel, but after lo- i

found they would not be allowed to
keep the cat.
The cat, in its special cage, was
