THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, BARNEY G(¢ SONG COMPOSED BY JUNEAU WGMAN TO | BE BROADCAST SOON On April 25 at 4:45 p. m., Jun- | eau time, Alaskan radio fans will be given an opportunity on Station KNX. to hear on a Pacific Coast| broadeast a recent composition by | Alice Lowe, local songwriter, and | one of the earliest. @f Alaska’s| pioneers. The song, entitled “In The Happy Long Ago,” has been accepted by the Universal YOGLE By BILLE DE BEGK Blue Blood Colors New York City Politics Servige. Song Tuneful Waltz { The song has a tuneful waltz melody of easy range, and the words possess an appealing qual- ity. The opening lines of the song are “Just a haunting melody, that lingers in my mind, It's mem'ry tcems with love's sweet dreams, and the joys I left behind.” Mrs. Lowe feels highly compli- mented that the song was accepted with only minor changes which were made to increase its adapta- bility for talking picture studio use. | On the afternoon of the initial radio presentation of her compo- sition Mrs. Lowe has invited a number of friends to meet at her home at Sixth and Gold Streets as her guests. | Other Scngs | Other songs which Mrs. Lowe has composed are “Lets Pretend,” which is spirited in words and mus- | ic, and is really based on President Roosevelt’s efforts through the Na- tional Recovery Act to bring Amer- icg bagk to its normal prosperity; and “That Old Home Town of Mine,” which gains its inspira- tion from Juneau, the home of the composer most of her life. The first composition “In the Happy Long Ago,” is to be sung at Tne National Annual Reunion of the Sourdoughs to be held in Ta- 2 coma next August. At the Sour dough Reunions, the song will be most appropriate in melody words, and be! written by a uine Sourdough it shou added interest for its he. — e —— NOME GIRL ‘GIVEN FEDERAL POSITION (Seattle Times) | Miss Ethel Chivers, Queen Anne High School garduate, who received | official notification Friday that she had been appointed to a position in the United States Department oof Agriculture, will leave for Washington,-D.

Winston Guest, polo star army and Lo truster” and City Chamberlain; to right): By RADER WINGET NEW YORK, April. 17.—Mayor LaGuardia—who likes to be known as “a man of the people”—can point to nine city employees: whosc names appear in the Social Regis- Some are paid no more than $1 a year, but they're on: the payroll working shoulder-to-shoulder with better paid and less prominent employees to help LaGuardia re- form the city. Many other socially outstanding New Yorkers have gone to work for the new administration. But the nine, by virtue of their inclusion in the ultra-ultra Social Register, represent the very loftiest social stratosphere. On the Mayor's secretarial staff is Clendenin J. Ryan, Jr., grand- son of Thomas Fortune Ryan, the millionaire copper king. He is married to Countess Marie Anne Wurmbrand-Stuppach of Austria. Their St. Pdtrick’s Cathedral nup- tials made big news in the social world. ‘William. Fellowes Morgan Jr., President of the National ‘Fisher- eries Association, is LaGuardia's Commissioner of Markets. Fish- eries and all, he is listed on page 562 of the Register. John Francis O'Ryan, a Major General with numerous decora- tions, is Police Commissioner, The Register, page 593, counts only the Military Order of Foreign' Wars, the Pilgrimssand Metropolitan of Washington - s his distinctions. He has, however, received the dis- tinguished service medal from the United States and high awards from TItaly, Rumania, England, France and Belgium. Langdon W. Post, Harvard, '23, campaigned for Roosevelt and La- Guardia. He now is Tenement House Commissioner, leading La- Guardia’s war on fire-traps. Adolf A. Berle, Jr, when a wee child could quote Latin better than English, is City Chamberlain, The Register doesn't list his mem- bership in_the so-called Roosevelt “brain trust,” but it does speak of his clubs, the City Midday, Cosmopolitan, Colony and the Na- tional Society of Colonial Dames. He also is a Harvard Man of '13. Lawrence B. Dunham, who has Jjust a line in the Register on Page 239, is ome of the Mayor'’s secre- tarjes. An Alexander Hamilton Alexander Hamilton, the great- grandson of the first Secretary of the Treasury and a newhpew of J. P. Morgan, is a special Deputy Commissioner of Markets at $1 a year. Alan R. Stuyvesant, who des- cended from the old Dutch famil- jes that settled New York, is secretary to Police Commissioner O'Ryan. Winston Guest, a former Yale athlete and the first to be given a 10 goal handicap in American indoor polo, works for $1 a year as adviser and consultant to the fusion party minority in the Board of Aldermen.
