Bill Rechin, that is, returned yesterday by P.A.A. from his first trip outside in 20 of the 26 yea: he has lived in Juneau. The tlight to Seattle two months ago was his first time up, and Bill is sold now on flying. Bill also is sold on transconti- nental travel by bus, he used for the round trip from Seattle to Buffalo, N.Y. “You really see the country that way,” says Bill. “You go slow enough to look around, and usually you drive pretty well through a town, instead of seeing just the part around the railroad station. And you get to know the other passengers, too. It was wonderful.” is Of the seven weeks that Bill was gone, exactly a month was spent in Buifalo, visiting his brother and three sisters. He enjoyed his stay in the old family home, where two of his sis- ters, Mrs. A. F. Guest, 76 years old, and Mrs. Charles Torsell, 66, make their home with their families. His other sister is Mrs. Frank Kessler, 75. Bill's brothér, Christ Rechin, also lives in Buffalo, where he has a fine kennel of dogs as a hobby. He is employed by the Dupont Com- | pany. While in the East, Bill saw t)\e World Series on television, and| went to a night ball game for the first time. Besides a short stay in Seattle, where he saw a number of Juneau people, Bill stopped over in Bil- lings, Mont., to see his wife’s cous- | in, and went to Sedro Woolley, | Wash,, to visit Mrs. Rechin’s | brother and his family on melr‘w ‘nice little farm.” Outstanding on his trip, too, wns a return visit to East Stanwood, w “old stamping grounds” | Wash,, his where Bill had a barter shop for seven years. the means| BROWNIE TROOPS AT Brownie Troop No. 4 met at the Legion Dugout Tuesday, Oct.

FAIRBANKS ASKA" IS ONE OF AL NEETINGS TUESDAY ryio FEATURES NOW '|AT 201H CENTURY A brawling, seething Jack Lon- don story of the North Country featuring an exceptional cast ot Hollywood players, comes to the 20th Century Theatre tonight, with gram drama, “Alaska.” Kent Taylor, Margaret Lindsay, John Carradine, Dean Jagger and Nils Asther are seen in the leading roles, and the cast also includes such favorites as Iris Adrian, George Cleveland, Dewey Robin- son, Lee “Lasses” White and John Maxwell. ‘The plot of the film involves the tangled love affair of a married woman who is an entertainer in an Alaskan saloon and concert hall; a welter of hates, jealousies and criminal intrigue; and the “railroading” of a man unjustly ac- cused of murder. These explosive ingredients are combined in a story which is filled with dramatic situa- tions, and which reaches its climax in what is probably the most sav- age screen fight since the mem- orable battle in “The Spoilers” of 30 years ago—a murderous brawl {in which Taylor and Asther are the principals. The other feature, ‘“Stranger from Santa Fe,” a western, with Johnny Mack Brown and his side- ‘klck, Raymond Hatton. GARDEN CLUB TEA Everyone invited, Thursday 2 to 5 pm. at Mrs, J. W.
