PREPARES NDPARTIAL | BLACKOUT 1S CALLED night — New Armed | Guards on Duty Juneau's second consecutive night of “partial blackout” will get un- derway again at 6 o'clock tonight, it was announced today by De- fense Chief Frank Metcalf. Also, for the second night, 50 armed home guardsmen will patrol around the city. The armed guard unjt was organized at a special meeting held in the Masonic Tem- ple last night. The defense rifle- men are a picked brigade, drawn from the personnel of the civic de- fense unit here. They are under the command of Dr. G. F. Free- burger. Today a call was heing sent out the city to enroll for duty in the defense squads, filling vacancies left in squads when the rifle de-| tachment was drafted from the ranks, An endless line of men were climbing the steps to the city hail| most of the late morning and af-| ternoon, volunteering for guard| duty Vote for Guards l The guard unit was called out to patrol streets last night as the re- sult of a vote taken at a meeting of squad sergeants held at the city hall. Metcalf had previously nounced that no guard duty would | be required. ; Under partial blackout, an-| Alaska’s | Capital City last night was almost | as dark as during the gomplete blackout of Monday night.

Cooperation of citizens in cutting down the light from the entire Gastineau Channel area was | excellent, Metcalf said. i Dan Ralston, highway patrolman, reported that residents along the‘ Glacier Highway went into a com- | plete blackout the entire night. | Tonight’s partial blackout will last until 7:30 a.m. tomorrow, Met- calf said, and will be repeated| every night until further notice.
