HOLLYWOOD PRESS MAN SENDS JUNEAU OUT T0 ALEUTIANS Sat. Ellis Levi Has Dinner in Native Hunt on Ber- A striking example of the Holly- wood press man’s ‘“sales appeal” psychology reached the Empire to- day an article appearing in the Los An- geles, Calif,, Examiner last month. Sergeant Ellis Levi, referred to by the columnist, is stationed here with the Finance detail. This is the comment as it appeared in Harry Crocker’s “Behind the Make- up”: “Janis Carter, Hunt Stromberg’s new blonde contractee, has the honor of having the first fan club Levi, U. S. Air Force, now stationed on a remote island in the Bering Sea, has notified Janis: ‘Shortly after we landed, three of my bud- dies took me to dinner in a native hut. On the wall was a page from a recent issue of a newspaper with a picture of you in a bathing suit “Fine, fine” mumbled the waiter every time he glanced at the pic- ture. Now, if your picture can warm up an Eskimo hut like that, we need you to be queen of our unit barracks. Please rush pictures to your devoted Arctic Fan Club. Levi, former concert pianist, ap- peared at several benefit concerts in Juneau and other Alaskan cities. Janis has not only shipped photos far northern service fans.” —Enumerating the press man's misstatements is a big job, open- ing as it does by moving Levi to the Aleutians, reducing him to a private, transferring him to the Air Service, and transforming the Assembly Apartments into an Es- kimo hut. Sergeant Levi is still waiting for the Christmas baskets and will be on hand to pass them out at the next AWVS dance if they come.

Included are pictures of Skun- doo-00, famous red-haired Chilkat Tlinget medicine man, who was sent to San Quentin for murder in 1894.
