PAGE SIX THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—~JUNEAU, ALASKA . MONDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1949 pAsEeR - R Ll 1 MEMBERS TALK EXTEMPORE FOR | LIONS CLUB MEN Having no scheduled program to- day, Juneau Lions conducted their weekly luncheon meeting in the| Baranof Gold Room strictly accord- ing to whim, thereby having a fine | and informative time. Two members who recently made trips of significance for the Terri- tory were called on for extempo-| raneous talks. The order of business | was reversed, the talks preceding the reading of minutes and other club business | Called on without advance warn-| ing, Col. John R. Noyes hastily swallowed his last bite of corn beet and launched into a sprightly 15- minute account of his trip, Dfil-‘ cially detailed last week ‘in The Empire. Colonel Noyes, Alaska Road Com- | missioner, commented especially on the great interest in Alaska which he found everywhere, and pointed out that Texans are reluctant to believe that there should te a| tate larger than theirs. The Alaskan attended the Ameri- can Association of State Highway Officials meeting in San Antonio, then participated in “a non- versial” hearing in Washing- | ton, DC.. before the Bureau of the Budget, and a conference of the American Society of Civil = Engi- | reers, in the same city, before taking part in the Pacific North- west Trade Association fall meet- mg in Spokane, Wash. Likewise —unwarned, Lt. Col. Joseph D. Alexander was first asked to explain the fact that he was/ wearing civilian clothes. “Where's your brass?” s?” shouted | the notoriously inquisitive Lions. The Adjutant General of the Alaska National Guard explained that he was having the brass| polished so as to be presentable for the “gold” (Alaska's top- ranking Army and Navy officers) due to arrive here tomorrow. Colonel Alexander brought the Lions Club up to date on the Na-| tional Guard, which was started 14 months ago.*He mentioned com- pletion of buildings at Bethel and Nome, both Army surplus property, and thanked fellow Lion Don C. Foster, Alaska Native Service Di- rector, for ANS cooperation in ob- taining the ground. The adjutant announced the acquisition of a warehouse building 160 by 360 feet at the Army Dock here, this struc- ture to be used for lockers, storage | | | i FIRST CANDIDATE FILES FOR SPRING PRIMARY ELECTION G.
