Others in the unusually fine cast are Herbert | Mundin, Andy Devine, Ralph Mor- | gan, Vince Barnett and William Stack. e Nazi Extremists Put Under Curbs by Official Hints BERLIN, May 30.—Movements are cn foot to prume certain off- |ehots of extreme Nazism which of late have become nuisances. It has been discovered, for in- stance, that Hitler's name is too often taken in vain in business| letters, wherc “heil Hitler” fre- quently is used to lend force to an argument or to demand payment of an overdue account. “Hell Hitler,” the advice is, “must not be usad to strike an aggressive hote.” Ancther cutgrowth is the fad for peacant-style furniture, which owes its popularity to the people’s hav- ing it drummed into them that everything connected with peasant- ry is “pure Germanic, and there- fore noble.” Cfficlal quarters intimate that peasant furniture belongs to the farm house, that it looks artificial and out of place in e¢ity homes. Incidentally, the monacle has come’ under a ban. “Bspecially in Berlin,” an official organ says, “onme sees too often the single eye- glass worn ‘with brown * uniform. The two don’t go together. i SPECIAL DELIVERY To Thane at 11:45 a. m. daily. Phone 442 for pickups. —adv. | HONORING FOUGHT AND DIED FOR THEIR COUNTRY @ Store Closed Today .

Phillips, giving that ‘‘there still are plenty of op- portunities” for them, 33 senior stu- dents were graduated from Juneau High School in the High School gymnasium last night. More than 400 parents and friends witnessed the impressive ceremony. Cutlining five opportunities which the decparting seniors might grasp, Superintendent Phillips told his audience of the responsibilites which must be assumed by the youth of the nation. “First, there is an opportunity for you in further education,” Mr. Phillips told the class of 1935. “Never beforz in the history of education has the opportunity this field been o great. plema, in itself, is useless. But if you will take with you the things for which it stands and earn’ fur- ther honors with them, education will mean much.” Urges Temperance Then the superintendent describ- ed the problem of liquor temper- ance, and the responsibility which it placed on the students. His third point followed the theme of the commencement ex- ercises, “service.” “You can be of service to your| nation by voting intelligently,” hei said. “Service to your country, to your city, to your raligious belief, all lie before you.” | That thers is an opportunity in |, politics, was Mr. Phillips’ Iounh\ pcint. Lastly, the superlnwndent‘ cautioned the students on their re-| sponsibility and opportunity in the problem of world peace.

She said that, spite of numerous peace treaties, these costs continued to grow larg- er. She urged “taking a risk for peace and not for war.” The last student speaker was Spiro.

Mucie Heard Musical intoriudes were furnished by the Misse: Corrinne Jenne and Carol ' Robertson, who played “Ave Maria” on the viclin and piano. The High School orchestra was |heard in the Processional march, ‘The March” from Aida. Two oth- et musical features were the se- lections, “Where My Caraven Has Rested,” and “Fallen Leaf,” sung by the High School Chorus, of them want to see another war,” Mr. Phillips concluded. “Europe is arming today in preparation for an| even greater conflict than the lnw‘ Werld War. It must be your duv.y to serve in the cause of peace.’ Principal A. 8. Dunham, in a short talk, pressmted honors for study and attendance. Miss Cor-| rine Jenne received much applause | when she was given permanent pos- session of a Torch Society pin for| high scholarship and when she was named class valedictorian. Principal Dunham explained that| Miss Marjorfe Aikens had the next highest grade average, but, becausc the had transferred here from a Ketchikan school only last year, was not entitled to be the class saluta- torian. That'%honor was given to Miss Anabel Simpson. The fourth and fifth highest grade averages for the four years also went to Birls, the Misses Judith Alstead and Carol Robertson. Given Cash Award In presenting Miss Jenne with the Juneau Womans' Club $50 cash award toward a college education. Mr. Dunham said that her mother Mrs. C. P. Jenne, was graduated from Juneau High School 30 ye ago, also with valedictory honors.| Mention also was made of the Miss Jenne, Wallis ‘George and Henry Mead. Diplomas were given to the 33 ‘ber of the School Board. As each senior, clad in traditional gray cap end gown, filed past Mr. Winn, ap- plause was given from the audi- ence. Interesting in this part of the program was the fact that William Winn, Mr. Winn's son, and Miss Robertson, daughter of R. E. Rob- ertson, another School Board mem- ber, recelved diplomas. The first student speaker on the program was Scott Ford. His sub- Ject was “Service,” and he told his clascmates: that “we must build on ',v.ho dared to be seniors by Grover O Winn, a mem- | Clarence Rand presented a ‘ma- rimbaphone solo, lary of Life.” Exercises over, the senlors doffed their caps and received -congratula- |tions of parents and friends. The exercises officially closed, school ac- tivity here until next fall.” ). B. PRIESTLEY BEST SELLER BEGINS RUN AT UPTOWN TONIGHT The story told by the Fox pres- |entation of J. B. Priestley’s “The Good Companions,” opening to- night at the Uptown Theatre, takes the audience on the open road of 1 romantic adventure. In his novel Priestley brought together a lov- able carpenter, an attractive young woman and a young college profes- |sor. He joined their fates with hose of a traveling troupe of | musical eomedy players known as The Dinky Doos.” The novel was one of the most popiilar of recent vears and the film i5 heralded as |& triumph. It concerns a group of people free from the |cares of the warld, from the routine | (of-work, from the ties of family,| near perfect attendance records of \who joired hands with fate and| lrounfl on the open road the good companionship that makes life worth livitig. Delightful musical numbers :dd to the entertainment and the excellent cast includes Jessie Mat- thews, Edmund Gwenn, John Giel- gud and Mary Glynne.
