MONDAY, APRIL 16, 1945 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA "THE IRON MAJOR’ IS SPORT STORY NOW AT CAPITOL Convincing and realistic is “The Iron Major,” Pat O'Brien’s new |starring film which came to thej |Capitol Theatre yesterday. It proves ;to be a surprisingly entertaining (film that is a well-deserved tribute |to a great American—the late Ma- Jor Frank Cavanaugh. For the benefit of those who may not know of Cavanaugh, he was a {Massachusetts boy, who 2t Dart- mouth, Holy Cross, Boston College | and Fordham, became one af the greatest football coaches of all time, land who on the battlefields of |France in 1918, became one of the | nations’ heroes. | In both capacities, as a coach and as a soldier, Cavanaugh lived a full and an exciting life; his career is a shining beacon to Americans (of every age, his guiding principle being that 2 man must fight for his {veliefs and for what he thinks i8 right. In portraying the part of the rug- ged, two-fisted disciplinarian, Pat O'Brien gives undoubtedly his finest performance to date. Ruth Warrick is splendid as Sav's sympathetic wife; Robert Ryan as his team-bate and Leon Ames as his lieflong friend turn in notably supporting parts. Russell Wade, Frank Shannon, Dor- othy Vaughn, Barbara Hale and The thrilling story of a two-fisted titan of football! Ruth WARRICK Robert RYAN Leon AMES Margaret Landry stand out in less- Russell WADE er roles. Bruce EDWARDS (ampaign of 7th War Bond Loan Drive fo Last From May 14 fo June 30 (Continuea from Page One) bonds simply as an anti-inflation | measure. The big aim is to pay for vhe war. “UNCLE SAM, MARINER”® THE NEW. WHAT IS TO BECOME OF OUR MAR CH g MERCHANT FLEET? Will Foreign Ships Sail Our Ports—! Of TlME 2 Haul Our Cargoes? A 20th CENTURY- FOX RELEASE The cost of the Pacific war wmi be tremendous, and Treasury om-, cials say that when Germany folds us war expenditures will uot drop! as much as many people think. If Germany should collapse before or during the bond drive, May 14- June 30, the Treasury won't and can’t change its plans. War costs will still be higher. Besides, the! inflation dangers will be acute. The quotas won't be lowered. The | drive will continue. In fact, the| sales effort will be more strenuous than ever to counter-act any possible let-down in public participation. There's a postwar angle to the seventh war loan, too. From the standpoint of the na- tion’s economy, was sbonds are a stock of economic blood plasma. From the standpoint of John Citizen, with that neat stack of war bonds in the top dresser draw- er, he has savings that he can Luml instantly into cash when he needs! it, or hold until maturity and get back $4 for every $3 he invested. Some government officials tllink there will be very little cashing of bonds immediately after the war, in comparison with the total amount. They feel that the very existence of the bonds—representing . - insurance against an emergency—will stim- ulate business by making people less reluctant to spend their incomes or invest it in new enterprises. Since the quotas are bigger — sev- en billion dollars for individuals, with four billions of it in series E bonds—the seventh war loan drive will last longer than ever before. The main drive will run seven weeks from May 14 to June 30. In addition there will be a three- month overall drive during which wage and salary earners will be asked to step up their payroll de- ductions. This funs from April 7 | through July 7.

SKAGWAY YOUTH CHANGES PLEA; IS GIVEN LIFE By Allan Engstrom .. Court Lement in Senfence of Witness Against Maude Anderson Two sentences were imposed by Judge George F. Alexander in U. S. District Court here this forenoon. !Sandy Johnson, 16-year-old Indian youth, from Skagway, changed his plea from not guilty to guilty of the charge of rape of a minor girl lon which he was indicted. Stating that the law offered him ino alternative, Judge Alexander ordered the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment for the young de- fendant, but added that he would recommend, in view of the circum- stances and the apparent ignor- ance of the youth of the serious- {ness of the offense committed, that the Court will offer no objection should the proper parole authori- ties, at any time they see fit, de- cide to restore the youth to society. Margie Miller, who pleaded guilty to two counts of White Slave traffic Act violation, and later appeared as 'the principal witness for the prose- cution of Maude Anderson on a similar charge, was ordered to pay a $500 fine and was sentenced to {18 months in prison on each of the two counts against her, the Iprison terms to run concurrently. The Judge ordered her prison sen- tences' suspended and placed her on parole for three years. The |Court further gave Miss Miller per- mission to return to her present home in Los Angeles, California, where ‘she is to' report to the {United States Probation Officer. Leniency was granted Miss Miller because of her voluntary action in {appearing against Mrs. Anderson, which considerably aided in secur- ing the guilty verdict against the Sitka woman. | BARTLETT NAMED 10 NATL.
