Lt.

All the time he | says he kept thinking of Alaska and | | getting more homesick [ | FPinally after those 20 extra mis- | sions he volunteered for he felt “his | |luck was running out” and he had | {better take that hard-earned fur- lough. Traveling to the States he rejoined | his wife, the former Margaret Good- | win. one of his classmates at the| University of Alabama whom he | married in November, 1943. { After seven months overseas the | States looked pretty good but Alaska | looked even better, said Bud. He| did not care much for Corsica but | liked the famed Isle of Capri, where | he went once for five days—at the | Air Force rest home. Outside of | romantic Capri he did not have! much use for the rest of Europe. “The people are filthy and the towns are filthy.” | For his 90 sorties Bud wears the | Air Medal and has three group cita- | tions (a ribbon with one oak leaf | cluster). Lt. Brown trained at five different | schools to become a combat fighter pilot. They are Maxwell Field, Ala-! bama; Avon Park, Florida; Gunter Field; Spence Field, Georgia; and | Dale Mayberry Field, Florida. | At the conclusion of his furlough Bud is to report to Santa Monica where he will await reassignment.

UNITED TROLLERS PROTEST FISHING RESERVATION DEAL Juneau’s Local 56 of -the United Trollers of Alaska, at a meeting last night, adopted a resolution protesting the setting aside of areas for the exclusive fishing of Indians. It reads as follows: “Richard H. Hanna— “We, the United Trollers of Al- aska, at a specially called meeting, strenuously object to any discrimi- nation against either the white race or the Indians of Alaska. Our stand is that all voting citizens should be treated as equals and given no special privileges regard- less of race. “Therefore we object to the pro- posed setting aside of certain lands and waters for exclusive rights of Indians. “United Trollers of Alaska, “Local No. 56, Juneau, “By Sec.

He's an abstraction. | explains it and he ought to know. He wrote the screenplay. “It’s this way,” said. Krasna. “Olivia de Haviland is a royal princess, an exile from her king- dom. Robert Cummings is a young American pilot. They are in love and are about to be married, when' Cummings is confronted with the problems of being a prince consort. It means among other things, that he will have to give up his Am- erican citizenship. “So he balks at the marriage and Olivia blows up. That's where‘ the trouble comes in. You can see the villiany stems not from a} person or a thing, but from a sit- uation.” Krasna doesn’t believe in movie villians. “In the first place,” Krasna said, “sinister screen characters are: likely to be phoney. Not because! they are so wicked, but because they really aren’t wicked enough. The screen—at least the American screen—dares not be so realistic as to portray human villiany as it actually is. Nobody would believe it.” l} There are a few exceptions to this, Krasna admits. Mrs. Danvers in “Rebecca,” he says, was an honest-to-goodness villian. So was Javert in “Les Miserables and | so ‘'were Conrad Veidt in “Escape” | and Gene Lockhart in “Algiers.” Krasna, however, holds movie| blackguards in deep admiration. “They are nearly always good actors,” he said. “They have to be. And also they invariably incur the prejudice of the movie-going public, and they are easily typed. “And another thing. You never heard of a villian winning an Academy Award, did you?” SRS TWO BOATS SELL Tho halibuters sold yesterday at Juneau Cold Storage.
