For the past two nights, capacity audiences have praised this production. The story thread, which ties to-| gether so ingeniously the musical genius of this extraordinary group! of musical stars, is expertly played by a cast of Hollywood luminaries headed by Marsha ‘Hunt, William Prince, Hans Yaray, Martha O'Dris- coll, and Frank McHugh. Olin Downes, distinguished music critic of the New York Times, can be seen attending concerts in the film just as if he were carrying out assign- ments in his own personal career. As music has, from time imme- morial, been recognized as the uni- versal language, a wordless means of binding peoples of all races undi creeds together, “Carnegie Hall"| could easily serve as a highly en- tertaining messenger of good will.| It definitely has universal appear.

Variety, in ais range from light lilting melodies of the deep South to traditional concert numbers by Mozart; pathos, in musical interpretation such as one might expect from a good-will ambassador of the Negro race. It is with readily understood and Jjustifiable pride that the concert in Juneau will include numbers of his own composing. When presenting music in the lighter vein, performances of Shelby Nichols have been described as a fone man show.” Hawever, the singér is at his best when, before an appreciative audience of music lovers, he can demonstrate the va- riety of his technique, and impart the pathos of his feelings, by run- ning the gamut from haunting and wistful spirituals to the more subtle harmonics of concert numters from the Masters. It is anticipated that such will be the order of events Saturday evening, when this talented basso- caritone will sing at the Memorial Presbyterian Church of Juneau No- vember 19.

Frances Ann’s Beauly Salon Open evenings by appointment—Phone 388 ANS EXECUTIVES ARE BACK FROM | EAST COAST TRIP Visits with relatives in Maine,| consultations with publishers in| New York City, and with lndmn; Cffice executives in Washington, D.C, and a trip to Lexington, Ky. | where Dr. Dale lectured before a seminar of the University of Ken- tucky sociology department, are| only a few of the experiences that| Dr. George A. Dale and Dr. Evelyn | Butler crowded into a six weeks| vacation from which they returned | akoard the Princess Norah. Drs. Dale and Butler, who are di- rector of education, Alaska Native Service, and ANS social welfare supervisor, left Juneau October, 5 by CPR steamer and made the trip by Canadian Pacific Railway to the east coast where their {first stop was at Dover-Foxcroft, Maine. There, with their four-year-old daughter Edythe, they visited Dr. Butler's family, saw her sister, Mrs. Eileen Linde, formerly of St. Ann’s hospital in Juneau and their daughter Pat Butler who attended | school in Juneau several years ago.; In ‘Washington, where Dr. Dale consulted with W. W. Beattie, di- rector of education of the Indlan Service, he also visited Delegate B. L. Bartlett and Will Goding. On invitation from the Univer- sity of Kentucky, Dr. Dale met with a sociology seminar where he pre- sented his observations on the modern eskimos with lectures and slides to the sociology, geography and economics staffs. To assist in a new course that will be presented by the University | of Kentucky “Society Around the! World,” Dr. Dale is preparing an exhibition of eskimo material, pic- tures and articfacts. The eskimos, with the Bagandi of Africa are the two primitive groups that will be studied in the course. The trip to Kentucky was not| all on the academic side, however. “I certainly found what is meant by ‘southern hospitality’,” Dr. Dale said. “In Lexington, where people talk of their famous horses like memters of the family or as they would of famous people, there is little of greater interest than al v.sit to the famous farms where horses are raised. I don't| know how many Kentucky Derby | winners I saw, but my visit included a trip to the famous Calumet Farms and others as colorful.” New York and interviewers with publishers produced an interesting experience when Dr. Dale met nnl executive at McMillan’s whosvi hame was Livengood—and who was | interested in Alaska because “some- wone in his family went to Alaska and had a settlement named for him.”, Probably the incident most ex-| citing to the family was young| Edythe's meeting with her first Santa Claus in Vancouver last week. | HOSPITAL NOTES Peter Jack, Robert Hall end Mrs. | James Vrooman were admitted to St. Ann's Hospital yesterday. Henry Olsen and Mrs. Larry Mc- Kechnie were discharged from St. Ann’s yesterday. i Edith Bean of Hoonah was dis-| charged from the Government Hos- pital yesterday. DINNER SALE By Missionary .

The other feature “Junior Prom," | | erowded with laughs, music and| drama that faces high school kids when they hold an election. The entire cast from top tea- tured players Freddie Stewart, June |} Preisser and July Clark to the jive | dancers are natural and likable. | This marks Stewart's initial film | role, and the young vocalist, who | made a hit with Tommy Dorsey's | band, on the air and with the Kappa Barra Boys, does likewise with his songs in “Junior Prom.' He is boosted for presidency ot the student body in the Whitney High elections, but withdraws when he learns that the father of his opponent, Jackie Moran, will stop donating to the school if his son is not elected. It takes the glib tongue of Warren Mills to induce Freddie to throw his hat back into the ring. ‘When Moran makes a play for June Preisser, Freddie's girl, it makes the latter even more anxious to run. for office. However, his chances are not very good after Moran and his campaign manager, Frankie Darro, put on a Llistering speaking campaign, gets the idea of using singing to win votes, & until Stewart his voice !
