THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE HIGH COURT CHANGESON FLAG SALUTE | Says Don't Have fo Salute If Religious Reasons Say No WASHINGTON, June 14 United States Supreme Court has |overruled a decision delivered in| 11940 in holding that school chil-| {dren cannot be constitutionally re- quired to salute the American flag |if they have religious scruples against it. Justice Jackson delivered the de- cision which involved the challenge | of members of “Jehovah's Witness- | es” to the flag salute requirement of the West Virginia Board of Edu- cation. Justices Roberts furter dissented Jackson asserted action of local authorities in com- pelling the flag salute pledge transcends the constitutional “limi-| | tations.

TUNE TRIUMPH 1S RHYTHMIC IN CURRENT FILM "You Were Never Lovelier’ with Hayworth and Astaire at Capitol | At the Capitol Theatre, Rita Hay- worth is currently to be seen in the perfectly-titled new Columbia | musical, “You Were Never Love- lier.” Fred Astaire is equally impor- tant to the film and important, too, are the sensational songs com- posed by Jerome Kern, easily his greatest since “Show Boat.” Astaire and Hayworth—probably the greatest song-and-dance-and- romance team in screen histor first appeared together in last sea- son’s delightful Army extravaganza, “You'll Never Get Rich.” Now, in their second Columbia co-starring venture, they top with fluid ease the rhythmic perfection of their previous performance. Dancing to Kern's music is ob- viously a pleasure, a pleasure to do and a pleasure to watch.

U L R S FIRST KILLISNOO BASKET PRESENTED T0 MUSEUM HERE | Famous for their basket weaving, the Atka Indians, evacuated last year from their ancestral home in' the embattled Aleutians to the| sleepy village of Killisnoo in South-l eastern Alaska, are still pursuing their fine art. Proof of this may be seen at the Alaska Territorial Museum, where a tiny basket, exquisitely woven by Mrs. Jenne Golley, is on display. Mrs. Golley, born at Attu, present-, ed the basket to Mrs. Ruby McGee, Bureau of Indlan Affairs teacher, now at Killisnoo, who in turn pre- sented it to the Museum. | ‘The basket is the first to have been woven from the grass at Killis-| noo, and it is understood to be a‘ little more tough to work with and ' also that it bleaches whiter than the baskets woven from the Aleu. tian grass. It is expected that the baskets will be even more durable than those woven from the material of the Island of Atka, and her husband.will continue his duty with the U. S.
