NIGHT SCHOOL REGISTRATION ENDS THURSDAY Classes Wifl—Et Start This Week as Previously Planned The loud request Zor a night school developed into only a soft whisper if the enrollment last night is any indication of what the peo- ple of Juneau want. Registration was held from 7 to 8 o'clock last was found that not sufficient stu- dents were enrolled in any one class to justify its existence. For this reason, no classes will start Thurs- day as had originally been planned. Instead of starting classes, enroll-| ment will again be open on Thurs-| day from 7 to 8 p.m. Those students who enrolled last night need not come fomorrow night. The following is the result of the enroliment last night. Classes Typing I. . Typing II. Shorthand 1. Shorthand II. qukkeeping 4 Bookkeeping II. Remedial English Spanish Physics Chorus ...

It is said the story isn’t merely one of life behind the stone walls of the Pacific-washed prison. There's plenty of action on the mainland, both before and after the prota- gonist—one Gat Brady, played by John Litel—is confined for income- tax evasion. The story itself deals with a pow- erful racketeer, (John Litel), who is forced to remove his daughter (Mary Maguire), from an exclusive boarding school, and take her to live with him. When he is im- prisoned for income tax evasion, his one wish is to get out as soon as his term is up to rejoin his daughter, now in love with a dis- trict attorney, (Gordon Oliver) and | his own sweetheart (Ann 8heri- dan). | How this desire is thwarted time| |and again by a former mobman seeking revenge brings us through the various prisons in the story, thus forming as powerful a back- ground as has been seen in a long while.
