PAGE EIGHT BODY OF ROY CALL, MISSING FEDERAL EMPLOYEE, FOUND The body of Roy Call, Federal Building elevator operator and jani- tor missing since mid-January, was found this morning floating near No. 1 pier at the Small Boat Harbor. Call's disappearance had set off an intensive search for him since January 30, when his landlord at the Scandinavian Rooms called the U.S. Marshal's office to say that he had not been seen for about twc weeks Fellow employees at the Federa Building reported that he had been “laying off work a lot” and so had not thought his absence particularl; unusual d The body was found by Carl Gra: at 8 o'clock this morning as he camt @n deck of his boat Reliance. He¢ secured it with a pike pole and called police. Police turned the case over to Deputy U.S. Marshal Waltex G. Hellan. After examination of the man’ clothing and contents of his wallet Hellan was able to identify him definitely, he said. His wallet, con taining no money, had a lodge cara a photostatic copy of his service discharge, a social security card and other papers. Above his watct pocket, sewed on his trousers, was the name “Roy Call.” Call was last seen, according t« a report made by Hellan after in- quiries some two months ago, at the City Cafe in the company of Her- man Maahs, chief machinist’s mate aboard the Coast Guard cutter Storis, Agnes Zillesnanoff and an- other zirl. The four ate dinner there the proprietor reporting to Hellar that Call borrowed $5 from him tc pay for the meal. This was about Jenuary 16 or 17, he told IZllan. He was found to have cashed & check at the Imperial Cafe on Janu- ary 16 or 17 for $11.53, and was be- lieved to still have the money with him, as he had not paid several debts he owed, Hellan found. & The Zillesnanoff girl was found dead in her room January 28 in the same dwelling in which Call lived, after an evening of partying. Death was attributed to natural causes, ag- gravated by alcoholism. U. 8. Commissioner Gordon Gray said the body showed no evidence of foul play. Its clothed portions were in good condition despite long immersion in the water, he said. Following a doctor's examination, Gray said there was no need for an autopsy. Funeral services will be held to- morrow at 2 p.m. at the Charles W. Carter mortuary, under auspices of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. Major Eric Newbould of the Salva- tion Army will conduct the service The dead man was a veteran of World War I. LIONS CLUB HEARS INTERESTING TALKS AT NOON LUNCH The Lions Ciub meeting this noon at the Gold Room of the Baranot was kicked off by a roar from Tail- twister Gerald Williams who made the walls quake when he was fined ten cents by President Val Poor and club members, President Poor sel- tled the skirmish by revoking the Tailtwister’s badge and temporarily ippointing Lion Carl Rusher to the sfice. Lion Rusher, in lieu of the en cents, settled with Lion Gerald for his tie, then auctioned it oft for 35 cents—President Poor being aigh bidder. On the more serious aspects of he meeting, key membership pins were awarded to Lions Gus George and Howard Andresen for having brought in more than two new mem- bers. Committee reports followed with Lion Joe Alexander telling of the -esults of the Lions’ Prowl last Fri- iny and Saturday nights at AB all. Although no full tally has been made, Lion Joe said he was sure the profits would not pay oft he remaining Juneau Memorial Library debt but he wished to thank all who patronized the Prowl and contributed toward its success. On reporting on the Marble Tour- aament for Juneau youngsters, spon- sored by the Lions, to be held April 15 and 22, the Secretary announced the tournament would be held at the ball park, and not at the school gym as previously stated. President Poor read a letter from Gov. Ernest Gruening on the or- ganization of an Alaska Commis- sion on Youth and appointed Lion Dr. Rude to meet with members of other organizations at City Hall April 6, where plans for its organi- zation will be carried out. He ap- pointed Lion Harold Zenger as al- sernate in case Dr. Rude is unable to attend. Dr. Lorin T. Oldroyd, of the Uni- versity of Alaska Extension school was introduced by Lion Don Fos- ter. Dr. Oldroyd gave an interesti talk on the Pribilof Islands, the na- tives of the Islands and the seal herds. He refuted the charges made by some that the natives lived in “virtual slavery,” and as a member of a commission appointed by the Secretary of Interior to investigate the charge, said he found the people living in good homes and well pro- vided for. Another guest speaker was Glen irected a radio program in Anchor- i age for three years and is also well Neitzert who has just returned from year in Turkey for the J. S. White Engineering Corp., of New York. Mr. Neitzert is no stranger to Alaska, having been in Juneau with the Bu- reau of Public Roads from 1928 to and with the CAA in Anchor- e from 1936 to 1946. His wife di- known. Neitzert gave an interesting talk on Turkey He said the country wi remely poor because ‘Germany. France, PBritain and Switzerlana controlled its transportation, mines and power for many years, taking the profit from the country but he pointed out that the Turks were an inte! ent, people when learning was afforded them, many of them speak- ing several tongues. He related it primitive condition in matters of medicine and disease and finished by saying the t he wanted tc hear when he returned to this country was Kate Smith sing “Goc Bless Am a.” He said he had had a “first class look” at Communism and could find only one word for it, “dreadful.” The Club accepted a challenge from Mt. Edgecumbe for a basket- ball game and instructed Lion How- ard Andresen to notify Mt. Edge- cumbe they would be ready the week end of April 15-16 to meet them. Lion Bud Phelps, with unanimous backing, called for a challenge against local Rotarians for a marble melee to be played during the youngsters’ tournament April 15 and 22. Visitors were: Eugene W. Norten, Sacramento, Calif., John Carter Jr., Seattle, Charles Jones, Juneau, James Orrin, Juneau and the two guest speakers. 4-H CLUB MEETING Thirteen members were present at a special meeting of the Men- denhall 4-H club for boys held last Saturday to hear L. F. Oldroyd, Di- rector of Extension of the University of Alaska. Mr. Oldroyd outlined plans for the newly organized club, explain- ing and stressing the many advan- tages for boys who, while still young, learn to grow things and help “to make the best better. You will ever know when you can make use of what you learn now,” he said. Billy Gaines and Arnold Maier gave interesting reports on their projects.

Headed by Walter Plett, CAA re- gional administrator, the group i scheduled to meet tonight in the Alaska Coastal Airlines office wit the Chamber of Commerce's av tion ‘committee, Juneau represen- tatives of the CAA and the U. S Weather Bureau, and Mayor Waino Hendrickson, The plan for constructing a han- gar at the Juneéau airport was first brought to light when the Chamber’s aviation committee came out in favor of it several week: ago. The City Council March 17 voted its approval of the “prospec- tus as it now stands.” Although - the Copncil’'s action did not in any way commit the city carry out the plans, it au- thorized the mayor to meet with the CAA officials and the Cham- cr'st aviation committee, A site for the proposed building would have to be leased frome the CAA which owns the land upon which the Juneau airport stands. Acording to the prospectus drawn up by Felix J. Toner, local engin- at the direction of G. “Tony” Schwamm, head of the Territorial Board of Aviation, the hangar building would be 194 feet wide and 200 feet long; the operations building 32 wide and 200 feet long. The cost was estimated at $225,300. Presenting the plan to the City Council, Tom Dyer, Chamber’s aviation committee, said that one-half of the cost of con- eer, head of the| structing the proposed hangar could be obtained under Public Works Bill for Alaska. The remainder could be raised by means of revenue bonds, paid off in 20 years by money received for rental of space in the hangar and operations buildings, he said. It was indicated at that time the airlines had verbally agreed to guarantee rental of the build-| ing.
