No experience—well— a little, perhaps, is necessary to bring home the bacon in one of the most unusual races ever held in any ski area or by any club. Expert ' instruction ‘will be ‘given by Ralph Moreau starting at 10:30 am. Anyone and everybody is welcome to join' these courses, young or old, these instructions are of vital importance to beginners. Efforts Appreciated The Juneau 8ki Club is deeply indebted to the U. S. Forest Serv- lice and its efficient, cooperative staff, for the fine work it has done | to make the Douglas ski recreation area a place for real skiing enjoy- ! ment, We sincerely appreciate the | great deal of work and effort that {the staff and men of the Forest Service have put into the building and designing of cabins, trails, and |ski grounds which make up the finest ski area in Alaska. More work and more improvements are !being made on this project every day. Fellow skiers can show their | appreciation of this work by keep- ’ing the cabins clean and orderly, and by respecting material and property, and trail signs set up by the Forest Service.

By HUBBARD KEAVY (Pinch-hitting for Robbin Coons, on vacation) s HOLLYWOOD, Cal, Jan. 19.—“SWANEE RIVER.” Screen- play by John Taintor Foote and Philin Dunne. Directed by Sidney Lanfield. Cast: Andrea Leeds, Don Ameche and Al Jolson. The charm and grace and the music of the Old South, as Stephen Foster saw it, is the principal setting for this obliviously glorified story of the life of that early-day song writer. The development and the treatment are very much like that of a former Zanuck hit musical, “Alexander’s Ragtime Band,” and this certainly should be as popular. Its story is the struggle of Foster to sell his music; when he is a success, to control his weakness for drink; and finally, his futile effort to regain his .self-respect, his ingpiration and even his health. Trite as it i§, I'm going to say it: Ameche never was better than he is in this role. of the ‘talented, sensitive Foster. Jolson, a bombasti¢c minstrel man, is back in his own element—and coior, blackface: 'Andrea Leeds is charming. Logically placed i§ Poster's everlasting music, including “Jean- nie With the Light Brown Hair," “Ring that Banjo," “Oh, Su- sanna,” ‘“Old Black Joe"” and, as a dramatic .climax, “Swanee River.” 3 PROOF, ..

The plot of this version of the very old Jonathan Swift tale is typically musical comedy, with an almost war, an almost thwarted romance and a big argument over whose wedding song it shall be, King Bombo's or King Little’s. The scenes are filled with wonders and drama. The songs, all of them, are of the whistling caliber. The piece develops a star, too, in Gabby, but whether we shall see him again i a decision remaining to be made by Producer Fleischer. “THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME.” Charles Laugh- ton and Maureen O'Hara.
