He expressed the desire of the union to provide as many jobs as possible for the veterans. Last night's session of the Le- gion was described as a “rip-snor ing” meeting, with several subjects of community interest brought up for consideration, including the pro- posed use of the USO Club Rooms as a recreation center for Teen- Agers. Visitors who were present and made short interesting talks on vital topics in¢luded Representative Joe Krause of Ketchikan, Past Depart- ment Commander J. C. Morris of Anchorage, who is returning from a trip south, and Comrade Cauley of Wrangell, who is active in pro- moting boxing, wrestling and other sports amohg the teen-age boys. e COASTAL AIRLINES ON FLIGHTS TWO DAYS Alaska Coastal Airlines yesterday flew the following passengers to and from Juneau: To Wrangell: E. J. Rinehart, Er- nie Whitehead; to Ketchikan: Christine Heller, Henry Hogue, Don- ald Cockrun, John Johnson; to Sit- ka: Cecil E. Cook, Pearl Walker, Gene Craig, D. W. Hager. From Petersburg: E. Reyburn, Louis C. Lane. On today's flights were the fol- lowing: To Sitka: Hans Anderson, Gene Craig, D. W. Hager, Cecil Cook, the Rev. R. O'Reilly, Mr. Praises Teen-Agers During the discussion Jack Fletcher brought out the point that organizations wishing to back the Teen-Agers in the development of a recreational hall would not “wrap up the whole deal and pre- sent it to them”, but would instead aid them in getting started toward doing something for themselves. He praised the initiative and respon- bility already shown by Juneau youngsters in their handling of Teen Ager Night at the Elks Club every Friday. The motion to 10 10 .3 be voted on at next Tuesda luncheon-meeting includes a recommendation that the proposed $500 subscription from the Rotary Club be payable only if it is apparent that $8,000 can be raised to start the project. The Teen Agers' themselves will be ex- pected to aid in raising funds and in helping to administer the duties involved with organizing. Carving Totem Pole During the business session pre- ceding the opening forum discussion, it was announced that Ed Keithahn, head of the club’s committee for carving the Totem ,Pole to be used in a fund-raising campaign for the Memorial Library, would have a final work session on the Totem tonight. It is expected that the Totem will be completely finished at this session. All Rotarians who wished to aid in the final touches were asked to be present. Also announced was the new pro- gram committee composed of Lou Hudson, chairman; Bob Martin, James McNaughton and Mr. Keith- ahn.
