SPENCER TRACY IS
COMEDY STAR IN
CAPITOL'S SHOW
It's a scene from “Father of the
Bride," M-G-M's matrimonial com
edy starring Spencer Tracy, Joan
Bennett and Elizabeth Taylor on
.he Capital screen.
Tracy, as Miss Taylor's father, is
busy in the kitchen preparing
drinks to be served at the gay an
nouncement party.
The scene is rehearsed and ready
to go when prop men start bring
ing in bowls of sliced oranges,
strawberries, lemons and marasch
ino cherries. Tracy views this pre
ceding with alarm and finally
■alls out to Director Vincente Min
lelli.
"What am I supposed to be do
ing," he shouts, “mixing drinks
jr whipping up a fruit salad?”
At that moment the legs on the
bridge table supporting the bowls
slip and the floor is covered with
i mass of fruit.
“Never mind,” Tracy calls, “I'll
ix the drinks. The salad is already
nixed!"
ALTER RETURNS FROM
SCANDINAVIAN TRIP
WITH NEW IDEAS
Scandinavian countries have
made many innovations in .sanita
tion and engineering methods for
low temperature areas which ofter
possibilities for adaption In Alas
ka, according to Amos J. Alter who
has just returned from three
months of study in northern Eur
opean countries.
Mr. Alter, wno was awarded a
World Health Organization scholar
ship for the study, is director of
the Sanitation and Engineering
Division of the Alaska Health de
partment.
Sweden, he said, is developing
an efficient means for providing
safe water which includes re-charg
.ng ground waters with surface
waters and utilizing gravel and
-and areas laid down by nature as
a natural filtering system.
Denmark, France, the Nether
lands and Sweden have developed
improved methods for reduction
and ultimate disposal of garbage
and refuse, he said, through grlnd
ng and use of bacterial processes.
He explained that communities
established their own plants for
this purpose and described one I
as "an attractive stucco-type build- j
ing on landscaped grounds in the
heart of a residential section. The
plant was clean and neat, had no
odor about it—and was painted
orchid color.”
Timber by-products, such as ex
celsior, are being combined with
cement for insulating materials in
the construction of schools and
■roup housing in northern Euro- !
oean countries, Mr. Alter said.
In Sweden, he said, the system
)f local health centers was estab
ished nearly 250 years ago and is
.till developing, while in Finland
here are 700 of such centers
vhich means that virtually every
community has health facilities
ivailable.
During his study and observation
if public health engineering prac
tice in Europe, Mr. Alter said he
net and worked with some 150 pro
'essional people all of whom ex
iressed eagerness to increase ex
'hange of information about new
levelopments on all phases of im
iroving health and sanitation coa
litions.
“The opportunity to continue to
btain information about the work
leing done in those countries
hrough these interested people
whom I met will be of lasting value
o our work here,” Mr. Alter said.
CLEMENTS RETURNS

"BOYS’ LIFE" TELLS
ALASKA EXPEDITION
OF EXPLORER SCOUTS
"In the Shadow or the Great
One” is title of a 3-page article
appearing in the February, 1951.
issue of “Boys’ Life," national mag
azine for boy scouts. The article
tells the story of a group of An
chorage explorer scouts, and their
experience on an expedition to
McKinley National Park this past
summer. It is written by James
Kelly, IS year old explorer at An
chorage.
"Boys' Life" is one of the most
widely-circulated magazines in
America, written especially for
boys from 10 to 17: nearly 1,000,00)
copies go through the mails to in
dividual subscribers each month,
with most of the stories and articles
written by professional authors.
Scout Kelly's article includes a
striking panoramic photograph of
Mt. McKinley and a topographic
picture showing Mt. Eielson, Thor
ofare Pass, and Highway Pass, in
addition to McKinley.
Besides describing the thrilling
camping experiences of last year';
scout party. "In the Shadow of the
Great One" gives authentic back
ground material on the history of
McKinley climbing expeditions.
Young Kelly is a Life Scout in
troop 678, sponsored by the Non
Commissioned Officers Club at
Elmendorf Air Force Base, just
outside of Anchorage. He has IS
merit badges to his credit, several
of which were completed during
last year’s Explorer Trek. The ex
pedition has been planned as an
annual event, open to any qualified
Explorer Scout in Alaska, with the
party being limited to about 35.
Last summer’s trip was led by ex
plorer adviser Howard Gould and
assistant scout executive Eugene
Butler, both of Anchorage. The ex
plorer trek does not attempt pro
fessional mountain climbing, but,
as described by scout Kelly, limits
itself to exploratory hikes of gla
ciers around the base of the moun
tain and to observation of wild
life. In his article, Kelly tells of
seeing grizzley bear, willow ptar
migan, porcupine, red fox, and
many owls. Over 700 Alaska scouts
receive "Boys’ Life” each month.
