The great stage success brought excitingly to the screen! “ANNA LUCASTA” . ] { Theatre, is a fast-moving story of :a man who had a date with a bul- let and of a girl who tried to make thim break it. | Ford, a big-time gambler, returns| jfrom the wars to find that his part- ner in a gambling club has been murdered by a gangster who has then moved in on the establish- jment. Ford takes $100,000, which | 1he feels rightfully belongs to him, from the clut’s safe, and, with the ,thugs yapping at his heels, holes lup in a settlement house. There, he meets a young settlement worker (Keyes) and they fall head over heels in love. But Ford's refuge from the pursuing pack ends when a nosey newspaper columnist (Ire- land) puts them on the right trail. | The gangsters, failing to retrieve | the hundred grand, set fire to the settlement house and recover the money. Ford secures it again, the| hard way, but is forced to shoot it out with the hoodlums — andi slumps to the ground, critically wounded. It wouldn't be fair to tell what happens with the mouey—butk something wonderful does, for Ford tis by now a thoroughly regenerated character. Radio Station KFAR| Observes 10th Anniv.

EIGHT TEAMS ARE LINED UP, SCOUT CAMPAIGN DRIVE Executive committee members who will handle the special gifts section of the annual Boy Scout finance campaign were announced today by A. B. Phillips, general chairman of this year’s drive. As- sisting Phillips on the executive G. E. Cleveland, | Charles Goldstein, George A. Parks, Wallis George, M. J. Whittier, W. S. Pullen, Curtis Shattuck, Tom Morgan, Chas. G. Burdick, and Dr. James C. Ryan. The eight team captains pre- viously announced are enlisting their workers today, with lists to be completed by tomorrow after- noon, Phillips said. He asked that captains recruit full teams, in order | that men working on the solicita- tion would not be required to han- | dle more than half a dozen calls. | The campaign chairman pointed to the healthy growth in scouting | and its activities during the past year as an illustration of the value to the community of the Boy Scouts of America program. Money ! raised in the campaign is used to! make scouting available to all boys in the area, regardless of economic, | religious, or racial differences, the| chairman said. From the Council| office for Alaska, in the Goldstein | Bullging here at Juneau, program aids “and training for volunteer leaders are provided. Activities such | as the annual Eagle River camp, and the projected National Jam- boree in Pennsylvania for mnext summer are planned and supervis- ed. Attendance this summer at the two-week Eagle River encampment rose from the previous year's total of 31 campers to the record num- ber of 67. In addition to these boy scout campers, 12 senior scouts from Juneau and Douglas took part in the 1949 air scout encampment which was held at Fairbanks this year. Boys pay their own way for such camps, the chairman said, but the Alaska Council does the planning and provides the leader- ship and facilities which make them possible. 2 These activities, and the entire program of cub scouting, boy scout- ing, and senior scouting is design- ed to aid and supplement the work of nparents, schools, and the churches in developing young American men of good character, Phillips said, as he urged Juneau| and Douglas residents o back next | week’s campaign.
