John Wayne plays the powerful| 10le of Thomas Dunson, the cattle| baron, and Clift plays the part of his adopted son, Matthew Garth, a part that gives this highly gifted actor every opportunity to estab- lish himself as one of our future great stars. FELLER SHOWING | THEM AGAIN; WINS 11-INNING GAME By JOE REICHLER Bot Feller is up to his old tricks again—engaging * in his favorite | pastime of making the baseball experts eat their words. { It was only a couple of days | ago that the experts predicted, for the umpty-umpth time, that the erstwhile great Cleveland pitcher was through—finished as a win- ning hurler. And as he did on all previous occasions, the 30-year-old righthander has proved them | wrong. He stilled them yesterday with a brilliant 11-inning pitching per- formance as the Indians defeated the New York Yankees, 4-2. Fel- ler allowed six hits, only one in the last seven innings. | Feller's victory yesterday was a very important one for the fourth place Indians. It gave them the series from the league leaders— two games to one—and moved them up to within five and a halt from the top. They've now won seven of their last eight and trail| the third place Philadelphia Ath- |letics by only one game. A home run with one on by first baseman Mickey Vernon broke up the game in the 11th. Joe Page, who had replaced starter Allie Reynolds in the seventh, was the loser. Aided by homers by Ted Williams and Dom DiMaggio, each with two mates aboard, the Boston Red Sox walloped the Chicago White Sox, 9-2, to sweep the four-game series. Lefthander Chuck Stobbs, al- lowed seven hits for his first major league victory. ‘The second place Detroit Tigers, {behind the superb pitching of Virgil Trucks and Fred Hutchinson, shut out the Washington Senators in Coth ends of a doubleheader, 9-0 and 7-0, to cut New York's margin to three games. Philadelphia and St. Louis di- vided a doubleheader, the Athletics winning the first game, 8-2, and the Browns taking the second 7-3.{ Rookie Alex Kellner won his ninth game for the A's, scattering six hits. Joe Ostrowski stopped the Mack- men with a seven-hitter in the nightcap. Chuck Diering’s ninth inning single scored Lou Klein with the run that gave the second place St. Louis Cardinals a 6-5 victory cver Philadelphia and put them only one game behind the Na- tional League leading Brooklyn Dodgers. Robin Roberts, who shut out the Redbirds on Friday, was the loser. Ted Wilks, in relief, was the winner. Johnny Schmitz pitched the Chicago Cubs to an 8-2 triumph over the Dodgers to snap a seven- game losing streak for his club. It was the first Cub victory since Frank Frisch became manager. The Boston Braves regained third place from the Phillies by teking both ends of a double- header from the Cincinnati Reds, 5-2 and 3-2. Bob Elliott drove in three runs in the first game to help Warren Spahn gain his eighth victory. ‘The Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the New York Giants, 9-4, to take the rutber of the three game series. Bob Chesnes scattered seven hits in winning his fourth game. Larry Jansen was the loser..

ATTENTION TROLLERS THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA KATHLEEN HERE ON FIRST CRUISE, SUMMER SEASON Two million dollars were well spent on reconversion of the Can- adian Pacific liner Princess Kath- leen, say residents who were shown about the vessel, and a little time and effort in promoting civic in- terest was equally well spent by a few Juneauites Saturday afternoon. The Kathleen—to, officers and crew, on occasion, the “Katie,”—ar- ! rived sharp on the stroke of 3 o'clock Saturday on the first of eight special cruises to Alaska in 1949. A Juneau Champer of Commerce delegation went aboard, was shown the completely renovated ship, and ; took officers and company officials for a sightseeing tour, including two vantage points for seeing Menden- hall Glacier, a stop at the airport with a tour of the new Municipal Terminal Building, and an inform- al termination at the Terrace Room of the Baranof Hotel. Chief Engineer A. S. Moffat the only crew member who served on the Kathleen during the war, but every officer and crew member as well as every traveler aboard the luxury liner, is well aware ot her distinguished service. The 36 little ovals which frame | the eloquent plaque are not meant to be decorative, but they stand for a record of service never dream- ed of by passengers on the pre-war night ran from Vancouver to Se- attle. In 1941 at Alexandria, the ship’s insides were literally torn ou down to the steel. Everything that could be set afire by bombs went over the side. Officers like to tell of how the full-length mirrors were carried out in buckets—the easiest way to get those luxury items off the ship in grim war days. Surrounding the plaque, whichj says the twin screw turbine steamer Princess Kathleen has 17,000 horse- power, 5995 gross tonnage and a | speed of 22% knots, are ovals for the wartime trips made after requisit- ioning by the British Government, to Honolulu, Port Moresby, Port Darwin, Singapore, Colombo, Aden, Suez, Port Said and other world ports, in transportation of troops, refugees and war materials. Officers and men admire the present accommodations of the lux- ury liner while seeing them, in imagination, as they were during the war, when her duty was chiefly to and from the Mediterranean. The present dining salon, for instance, was used for cargo—this third deck being too low to house 5,000 troops who might be needed in a hurry. With a full passenger list, the Kathleen, on her first Alaskan s ™% PAGE THREE ed by the Juneau branch of the Women's National ~ Aeronautical | Association After Juneau entertainment, Cap- tain Gillison and Mrs. Gillison offered the ship’s hospitality. Din- | ing aboard ship were Frederick A. Eastaugh, president of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce; Herbert Rowland, H. H. Davies, Juneau CPR agent, and Edward C. Koenig, Jr, whose operation of the dock at Haines interested the CPR official.| On the drive to see Mendenhall Glacier close-up, were the Gillisons, who took home several stones for their new fireplace; Captain Hugh- es, D. F. Reynolds and J. Kirk- ham, first and second officers, re- spectively; Chief Engineer Moffat; W. J. Phillips and A. Agate, second and fourth engineers, respectively; Mr. LaGrue and H. E. Miller, chief steward. Volunteering the use of their cars for the sightseeing jaunt were Juneauites Keith Wildes, Charles W. Carter, W. R. Hughes, Herbert Rowland, Mrs. Alf N. Monsen, and Harry S. Sperling. The next Alaska cruise of the Princess Kathleen will sail from Vancouver Saturday, arriving at Ju- | heau June 28. LEADERS IN B. B.
