TO STUDY ALASKA | FROM NEW POINT, | ART, LITERATURE J. T. Davidson and R. K. Ross| of Pasadena, Gal, who arrived in Juneau last week, have begun pre- liminary attempts to gather new and different material concerning! Alaska in the field of art and lit-| erature. “I am not particularly interested in landscapes,’ Ross said. “Sydney Laurence has given a wonderful picture of Alaska to the world— I want to approach the subject from a different angle. I would like to do people and industries— character portraits. I think people | want something with meaning.” Ross, who has been associated | with Reginald Johnson, Los An- geles architect, as designer, studied at the Art Center School in Los Angeles, and also had a year of art training in Europe. He works with water color and charcoal in preference to oils. Davidson, who is a graduate .of Dartmouth College, where he took a journalistic course, also studied at the Sorbonne in Paris. He was Production Manager for the West- ern Lithograph Company at Los Angeles for two years. He stated that he hopes to get material for a book and for short stories. Davidson and Ross expect to. spend the winter in Juneau bub will visit most of the Territory before returning to the States. “We want to get what Alul‘ has to offer,” Davidson said. , i METHODIST AID ELECTS OFFICERS The Ladies or the Methodigt Church met Wednesday at the residence of Mrs. Clarence Rands with Mrs. T.
