High barometric pressure prevailed over the lower Mackenzie Valley and from Juneau south- ward to Oregon. This general pressure distribution has been at- tended by precipitation along coastal regions from the Aleutians southeastward to Southeast Alaska, also over the upper Cook Inlet and over the upper Mackenzie Valley, and by fair weather over the interior, western, and northern portions of Alaska. East and northeast gales prevailed over the Aleutians and eastward to Cape Hinchinbrook. It was much colder last night over the Tanana valleys. Colder weather has also overspread the region, the Seward Peninsula, and Aleutian Islands. will prevail tonight over the Alaska Railroad belt. and upper Yukon upper Cook Inlet ‘Warmer weather Juneau, Jan. 21.—Sunrise, 8:28 a.m.; Hollywood Sights And Sounds 8y Robbia Cooss sunset, 3:56 p.m. HOLLYWOOD, Cal.,, Jan. 20.—During this new year hun- dreds of movie players will get their names, maybe their pictures, in the papers. Quite a few hundreds more would like to know how to get their names, and their pictures, in the papers. For the benefit of the latter, herewith are our Helpful Hints for '39: —Get yourself a feud. There is nothing quite like a good feud to help along a career. Where would J. MacDonald and N. Eddy be, T ask you, if they didn't have a feud? Where would C. McCarthy and W. C. Fields be if they didn't loathe each other? —Get yourself a romance. Aw, don't be silly. You don't have to MARRY the guy (gal). All you have to do is to be seen with him (her). Go steady—then when that “angle” wears thin, ditch him (her) and get yourself a new grand passion. If you mix 'em up, all the better. 3—Get yourself a husband (wife). This is recommended only as a last resort. When you take the fatal (at least temporarily fatal) plunge, be sure to keep it quiet—but netify your publicity guide so the photogs at Yuma can be waiting. Better still, slip away and don't tell a soul definitely; just hint at it, and deny everything. 44(}&1 yourself a divorce. This is always sure-fire. Better, of course, if you can ditch the spouse immediately on return from Yuma, but good any time.

Be best-dressed woman (man) in Hollywood. (Don’t mind if, simultaneously, there are two dozen other claimants to title) If you're alert, you can always wear something a -little nuttier than the next girl (guy). —Sue and get sued. You are referred to Miss C. Bennett for details. 141ve (and go to) parties. Everybody loves a party. But be wary lest people love your parties more than they love you. —Have a baby. But ponder this step long before taking it. thing so irrevocable about a baby. —Get yourself a “past.” Careful, here, thought. Remember there’s a production code —and apply it to your private life and safety. l Be a superlative. T mean be the grandest (swellest, snarkiest) guy in town— or the meanest (naughtiest, spitefulest, most hard-hearted) dame. No half-way measures. No mediocrities, no normalcy. ll—mt (but this is scarcely worth considering) just work like HELL, live guietly at home, study your art, take care of yourself and act like an ordinary, pleasant human being.
