Hollywood Star Now Revisiting Donald Meek, Characier Actor, Passes Through City on Trip Retouching vivid pictures of the Alaskan gold rush days of '98 with a paint brush furnished by Father Time, Donald Meek, legitimate stage |actor since he was six years old and more recently a favorite Holly- wood character actor, is visiting northern haunts made familiar to nim two scores of years ago. Mr. Meek, well-known to cinema fans who saw Bing Crosby's “Pen- nies From Heaven” charaecter actor played the part of a befriended gamin's grandfather, |has taken advantage of a lull in |his picture schedule to enjoy Al- |aska again. Different Trek Now tian. Circumstances on this trip, however, are vastly different from those encountered by Mr. Meek on his trip to Alaska in '98. Then a youth of 16, who had already devot- ed a decade to the legitimate stage, he was bitten by the gold bug. Pick- ing up a companion in Pilfl.ndelphl.l the two youths decided to buck the wilds of the north for a pulemml fortune—but while his companion left with approximately $2,000, Mr. Meek remained until his failure was | certain, Then, taking about $200 he decid- ed. to get south—and landed in New | York eager to return to the stage Alaskan Trails in which thel He is aboard the steamship Aleu-| BRISTBI.

Work on New Play On the Fourth of July, upon his return to California, Mr. Meek will commence work on a new play, the Iname of which is st«l undetermined. { With a background of apprixi- mately three decades of stage exper- ience, as compared with a bare four years in the movies, Mr. Meek de- clared that the two acting arts are completely different—yet, with the| same fundamental principles in-| volved. “On the stage,” he declared, “an actor is able to draw out his audience and gain encouragement for flights inte superb acting. But in the movies one must act blindly—before vast |mechanical devices and faced with the enterprising working of directors and cameramen. “While each art is distinctive, how- ever, both are vastly interesting— and intricate.” Mr. Meek inherited, he said, his love for the stage from his mother, who was an English actress. Mae West Described “Is Mae West the simple, little girl off stage that press agents claim? Well, I know that she is rarely seen frequenting the usual !nlgm. clubs and places af amuse- ment where . movie personalities generally attend. She is decidedly different from the parts she por- trays on the screen.” Mr. Meek is accompanied on his| .Aluskan vcyuge by his wife.

The pressure was normal or above over the Aleutians, the southern Bering Sea region, and over the Pa- cific Coast States. This general pressure distribution has been at- tended by precipitation along the coastal region from the Gulf of Al- aska southward to southern British Columbia, also over northwestern Canada, and over the Seward Peninsula and by fair weather over the remainder of the field of observation. The rain over the southern portion of southeast Alaska was heavy, the 24-hour amount at Ketchi- kan being 2.10 inches.
