Every memier of the Post will be | expected to serve on committees | and take an active part in the| | year's program, Commander Drux- man told his lsteners. The only way progress can be made, he said, is for each and every one to con- tribute his share of time and effort to fulfill the aims of the Legion; to work for the good of the com- munity, state and nation. Increased membership is an im- | portant part of the program, stated | Druxman, adding that every mem- | ber should make a pledge to secure |at least one new member for the American Legion every month. Bet- ter club facilities and a Post wel- fare program are among the other ambitions of the organization. Auxiliary President Sandra Zen- ger pledged the continuing support of the Auxiliary to the Legion program, and at the same time suggested that each Legion mem- ber who has a wife, mother, sister or daughier not now a member of the Auxiliary, shoyld encourage and urge her to join. | The evening ended with a social hour enjoyed by just about ‘a ca- pacity crowd, to whom crab salad, sandwiches, cake and coffee were served Ly Auxiliary members assisted by several Legionnaires doing K.P. ‘The new commander of the Ju- neau Post is a World War II vet- eran and local professional man, tand has resided in Juneau since 1940.

ON SCREEN AGAIN AT 20TH CENTURY James Cagney and George Raft together on the screen spells dyna- And in Warner Dawn I Die,” Bros' “Each| which opens a spe- jcial return showing at the 20th | Century Theatre tonight, the duo| delivers a double portion of «~xp]n—1 sive excitement. This drama rips| back the curtains on political rack- eteering and scandal. | Cagney plays the role of a hard- ened reporter, bent on tracking up underworld feeling against him | and he is framed and sent to pnmnl a manslaughter charge. Inside | he meets Stacey (Raft) who is serving a life sentence. The two stage a jail break which is a high spot in the action-packed drama vith Stacey promising the reporter 1l's stance in proving his inno- sence. To achieve this point, the life termer gives himself up and re- urns to prison l.ecause the fellow who framed the reporter is there. Back again behind the grey walls, Stacey engineers another jail sreak, and although he is mortally wounded in the gun-fire, he forces v cenfession which clears the re- corter’s slate. PAC.
