C., can rest easy now. Jim Preston says it's all right. : “I'm amazed,” says Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s Am- ‘erican double 'I go through these sets and it's just as if I were back in the Capitel. Everything, to the smallest detail, is right. T'm amazed. ¢ Ius distinguished-looking Jim Presion’s business to see that i#'s all “right.” Fornfer superintendent of the press gallery in the Senate, now officiating at the Hall of Archives, Jim Preston .is on leave of absence to help Frank Capra present an authentic Senate. “TPechnical adviser” is what they call the job, The picture is “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.” It has James “Stewart and Jean Arthur in the lead roles, and it's about an ideal- istic young man who goes to the Senate with Ideas. Jim Preston isn't concerned professionally with: thie Ideas, but with the Senate. He tool: through the under construction, pointed out infinistest details in which the reproduction matches the original-such things as the new air-conditioning gratings below the senatorin! desks, the flowery designs on the chandeliers in the “lobby,” the style of molding along the walls, those certain barred doors behind the press gallery. “It takes me right back through my 35 years there” he ex- claimed. “And w' re you see a set of biue prints in the evenings in and nest morning there it all is, on the set.

I was eager 10 hear the verdict of a staid Washingtonian on Hollywood glommer—but Jim Preston hasn't been exposed to it. He's made friends with the carpenters—“amazing, great fellows"— and he visits around the other sets when he isn't wanted on Gapra's ' The other day on the set where Buster Keaton was making a oomedy Jim was standing by innocently when a strange gentleman approached and proffered him an umbrella. Jim Preston looked, and saw a cameraman lurking not far behind, and he ducked. Keaton still liasn's got a portrait of Chamberlain via Preston. It lppears that Jim doesn't go for publicity—which makes him unique | ip this man's town. t In fact, if Hollywood had a Hall of Archives, Jim Preston would ¥ate & niche for that rcason if no other.

Temperatures were warmer last night over Western and Southeast Alaska, but cooler over other portions of the Territory. sunset, 7:50 p.m. Juneau, May 2.—Sunrise, 4:05 a.mn.; A LOT OF PROTECTION FOR A LITTLE More and more home-owners are coming to realize.that fire is not the only hazard they have to worry about. That's why so many are taking advantage of the “whole- sale’ protection afforded by the Extended Coverage En- dorsement, which covers damage by windstorm, hail, explosion, falling aircraft, “wild"” vehicles, riot and smoke.
