Now at Capitol
When Bud Abbott and Lou Cos
tello get mixed up with the Wolf
Man, Dracula and Frankenstein's
Monster the ingredients are present
fcr one of filmdom’s most unusual
products. And that’s the concoction
that’s evolved in the Universal-In
ternational presentation “Abbott
and Costello Meet Frankenstein,”
which opens today at the Capitol
Theatre with an amazing assort
ment of thrills, chills and belly
aching humor.
Lon Chaney is cast as the Wolf
Man, Bela Lugosi as Dracula and
Glenn Strange as the Monster, and
all three worthies perform in such
horrifying fashion that low blood
pressure will be cured at a single
treatment. An Invisible Man, a
jet-propelled bat and a pair of
Vampires add their bit to create
si ortness of breath or make the
heart pound. Lou Costello has a
n: rrow escape (or maybe it’s the
Monster) when he is rescued from
having his brain transformed to the
Monster by Dracula. With his side
kick, Bud Abbott, Lou is his usual
hilarious self.
"Abbott and Costello Meet Frank
enstein” was directed by Charles
I T. Barton and produced by Robert
j Arthur.

The Political Pot commencing
to send forth small jets of steam
here and there around the Terri
tory. M a result of the awakening
interest in politics, a reader of this
column has written to ask about
the qualifications of candidates for
the Alaska Legislature and the pro
cedure for becoming a candidate.
A candidate for either the House
or the Senate must first of all have
the qualifications of an elector in
Alaska. That is, he or she must
be a citizeq of the United States,
must be at least 21 years of age,
and must be able to read and write
in the English language.
In addition, the candidate "sh^ll
have been a resident and an in
habitant in the division from which
he is elected for at least two years
prior to the time of his election.”
The Election Laws of the Terri-..
tcry are somewhat contradictory
“concerning the method for becom
ing a candidate. In one place it
says: "All candidates for. . .elective
Territorial or divisional offices. . .
shall be nominated in a primary
election by direct vote of the peo
ple. . .”
Elsewhere in the law there. is a
provision for independent candi
dates who may bypass the primary
election and have their names plac
ed on the ballot in the general el
ection only. That procedure will
be detailed later.
As for the nomination in the pri
mary election, the law provides:
“Any person who is a member of
a political party and desires to be
' come a candidate of that party for
i any elective office shall, on or be
! fore the first day of February, be
I fore the date of the primary elec
! tion, make, under oath, and file
i a declaration of candidacy, which
' shall contain the name, address
and voting precinct of the candidate
and a statement that he is a qual
ified elector in such precinct; that
he is a member of the political
party from which he seeks the
1 nomination; that, at each primary
' election at which he has voted dur
ing the preceding four years, he has
voted a ballot of such party or de
clared his affiliation to such party
; and will declare his affiliation to
such party at the coming primary
election and intends to vote for a
majority cf its nominees at the
! general election which follows; that,
, if nominated and elected he will
support the principles of such party
as set forth in its last national
j platform, and its platform for
1 Alaska adopted during the preced
' ing two years.”
The Form For this Declaration
of Candidacy is set out in the Al
aska Compiled Laws, Annotated,
Sec. 38-4-2, page 994.
The law also provides, however,
that “nothing contained herein shall
prevent one who has not voted at
any primary election during the
preceding four years from becoming
a candidate in any primary elec
I tion.”
In addition to the above declara
! tion, the candidate must, at least
' 25 days before the election, file
a written oath of qualifications
with the Territorial Canvassing
Board at Juneau.
If the candidate fulfills all of
these requirements, his name will
appear on the ballot for the pri
mary election, which is held on the
fourth Tuesday of April in even
numbered years. And if he is nom
inated in the primary, his name

TODAY
will appear on the ballot for the
general election oh the second
Tuesday of October in the same
years.
In The Primary election, each of
the political parties will nominate
not more than one candidate for
each office to be filled.
It should be noted, in this con
nection, that there has been a
change in the apportionment of the
Alaska House of Representatives
since the last general election.
Next fall the First Division will
elect six members to the House' in
stead of eight. The Second Divi
sion will elect three instead of
four; the Third Division will elect
ten instead of seven and the
Fourth Division will elect five, the
same number as heretofore.
Independent candidates for the
Legislature may be nominated for
the general election by a petition
signed by 50 qualified electors of
the candidate’s home division and
requesting that his name be plac
ed on the ballot.
In addition, the candidate must
sign an endorsement upon th’e pet
ition to the effect that he accepts
such nomination and will serve in
the office if elected.
This Petition must be tiled wun
the Clerk of the Court. As to just
when It must be filed, there again
seems to be a conflict in the law.
In Section 38-4-20 of ACLA, 1949,
it. says, "all such nominations must
i be filed on or prior to the date of
the primary election.” In other
words, prior to the fourth Tuesday
of April. In section 38-5-20 of the
same volume, however, it says the
I petition shall be filed “with the
J clerk of the court for such judicial
division on or before the first day
cf February of the year in which
general elections are held.”
To be on the safe side, an inde
pendent candidate should probably
file his petition no later than Feb
ruary 1.
It is interesting to note that there
appears to be no filing fee required
for filing a petition of nomination.
The filing of a Declaration of
Candidacy for the primary election
on the other hand, calls for a fee of
$9 or $10.
