TUESDAY SEPTFMBER 30 1947 THE DAILY ALASKA EMP PLAINSMAN AND LADY" AT CAPITOL| “Plainsman and the Lady,” an inspired epic of the Pony Express days is at the Capitol tonight for the last times. Here is the story St. Joseph, Missouri, in 1859, is divided by a railroad track which separates the better and poorer classes of townspeople. From one side comes imperious Ann Arne-| sen (Vera Ralston), daughter of}| Michael Arnesen (Rheinhold | Schunzel), powerful financier and owner of the Pony_ Express. Mich- ael hires Sam Cotten (William El- liott) to protec. ais pony lin€ from hostile Indians cnd the at- tacks of the gang of Peter Ma quette (Joseph Schildkraut), own- er of a rival stagecoach line. Sam’s | position is made difficult because Michael's wife, Cathy (Gail Pat-| rick), is in love with Marquette| but he goes ahead and organizes the pony line despite several at- tacks by Marquette’s henchmen | The ailing Michael is shocked to death by his wife's confession of| hate, and Marquette tries to des-| troy the Pony Express stations. |Sam, with the aid of a friendly| Indian tribe, finally wipes out Marquette and all his criminal band. Sam then returns to St.| Joseph and Ann, the woman he| loves.

ITODAY’S NEWSAT 1.00 THRIFTY DINNER FOR THRIFTY PEOPE | ‘| Lions’ Club, timist Club, Mayor Waino Hen- drickson and the Presidents of 15| civic groups were invited to a meeting last night to discuss proposed central committee com- prising the representatives of their respective organizations. The meeting was held at 5:15 lo'clock in the office of the Ju- neau Merchants' Association, and| although only seven group lead- ers appeared, they went | with tentative plans for the cen-| tralized board. The purpose of the committee; would be to unify the efforts of|s |summoned to convene in early No-| various civic groups in entertain ing visitors, and spear-heading drives such as the one for the public library. ' A calendar Lléar- ing bureau would also be set up to avoid scheduling of activities on conflicting dates, The discussion was conducted by‘ Mrs. Henrietta Power, represent- ing Mrs. Mernice Murphy, Pres dent of the Soroptimist Club. After a general discussion ‘of| {opinion, Milton Furness, of the, Lions, suggested that the Soropti- | mists draw up an outline of the proposed council, with an explan- ation and examples of its func- | tion, to be submitted to Mayor| Hendrickson, who was not pres- ent. It was suggested that Mayor Hendrickson would in turn send explanatory letters to each or-| {ganization concerned. Their mem- bers would then be able to decide whether or not to participate in the proposed central committee. | It was suggested that the Mayor might call a special meeting of group repreésentatives to report the reaction within their organizations, and to plan in detail the structure of the central board. Commander Ed Chnester, of ine Veterans of Foreign Wars, called attention to previous attempts to formulate such a board, and pointed out that the committee under discussion would not be ren-| dered inactive by the inability uX: one or more members to attend. Organizations represented at the meeting were: Soroptimist Club, Rhea Smith; American Women’s; Voluntary Service, Mrs. Ernest Gruening; Juneau Woman’s Club,| Mrs. Ed Chester; Beta Sigma Phi, Joyce Williams; American Legion Augxiliary, Mrs. J.
