KICK-OFF IS HELD AT FEDERAL LUNCHEON The kick-off in a campaign for funds for the American Cancer Society was held at the luncheon today of the National Federation of Federal Employees, with the main speaker the Rev. R. Rolland Arm- strong, Territorial crusade chair- man of the Alaska division of the society. The Reverend Armstrong showed a film, “Time is Life,” illustrating current progress in the battle against the dread disease. Pointing out that as recently as 1913, the word “cancer” was so taboo that hospitals refused to accept gifts for work in that line or designate themselves as cancer centers, he stressed importance of all groups uniting for a fight on this “common enemy of mankind.” Charles W. Carter was introduced as crusade chairman for Juneau. Representatives of each federal group in the city have been ap- pointed to work with the campaign, to get under way next week. Carter and the Rev. Armstrong, field representative of the Board of National Missions of the Pres- byterian Church, were introduced by Mrs. Mildred R. Hermann, com- mander of the Alaska division of the cancer society. She expressed appreciation of support being given the progranr by federal agencies in all major Alaska towns. Plans for the Juneau federation’s representation at the coming San Francisco national convention were discussed prior to the program. Some 50 employees attended the luncheon, held in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel. CAA M HERE Weston Losey, of the Civil Aero- nautics Administration staff, An- nette Island, is at the Baranof Hotel.

CHORUS RETURAS 10 Senafe Fforumls ° WEDNESDAY, MAY 10, 1950 DUE 70 WEATHER For a while yesterday atternoon, the Juneau Airport took on the aspect of a big stateside terminal, at one time: three DC-4's of Pan American World Airways, a DC-4 of Pacific Northern Airlines, Alaska Coastal Airlines’ big PBY—and a Grumman, too. Fred Dunn, district traftic mnn-l ager, and other Pan American statf members were kept busy trying to sort out the various groups of their passengers and get them where mey‘ wanted to go. Weather had conspired agmm‘stl Pan Am on a day when two special | flights were scheduled besides two! regular ones. = Flight No. 923 from Seattle car- ried a large number of fishermen booked to Ketchikan: flight No. 925, | a special for Annette Island, car- ried 45 fishermen—and both tlights had to overhead Annette and come in here. H The charter flight to return 54 student musicians to Ketchikan had to be postponed, the students ré- turning to the homes where they { had been quartered during the Mu- sic Festival. ‘Too, Pan American had the usual Tuesday flight from Seattle to Fair- banks. By arrangement with Alaska Coastal, their PBY carried 24 of the fishermen to Kassan late yes- terday. Passengers unable to get to Annette from ®either direction were guests of Pan American here’ overnight. At press time, today was a ‘“‘re- peat” of yesterday. Again, the tlight from Seattle had to overhead An- nette, bringing 17 more Ketchikan- bound passengers to Juneau. Arrivals yesterday from Seattle were Marvin Copeland, Edward Dietsch, Donald Franklin, Charles Helgert, Earl King, Ernest Mueller, Ernest Niemela, Iver Oberg, J. O'Neill, Edward Peterson, George Pierce, Glen Phillips, Fred Speier, Eunice B. McGowan, Jerry McCar- SITKA ABOARD (LIPPER! The Alaska Coastal Airlines’ | Consolidated Clipper flew to Sitka | today with 28 members of the Mt.| Edgecumbe Chorus aboard. | The student singers boarded the big flying-boat, which joined the| ACA fleet last fall, at the down-! town ACA hangar. They had! traveled to Juneau from Sitka yes- terday aboard the clipper. The ship has been carrying cap- acity load of passengers to Sitka and other Southeast Alaska points since it went into service, affer being modified for passenger trans- port. An amphibian, it operates from both the Juneau Airport and the waterfront terminal. (G PLANE GOES TO AID | OF SICK FISHERMAN A Coast Guard aircraft took off| from fog-shrouded Annette Island| airport to go to the aid of a fish- erman aboard the boat Rolling Wave of Juneau. The fisherman was reported to be suffering from appendicitis. ‘The, vessel reported its position at that time as two hours off Noyes Island, which is west of Prince of Wales Island. The name of the ill crew member was not given. The Coast Guard aircraft, grounded until afternoon by heavy fog, reached Steamboat Bay on Noyes Island at 2:10 pim. It was to rendezvous there with the Rolling ‘Wave and return to Ketchikan with the appendicitis victim. The vessel's listed owner is Wal- ter C. Maltsberger, and its listed home port Juneau. ];cnwmn BIKES AT MADSEN'S . thy. Charles D. Stover and Perry Tonsgara. Boarding here for more northern points, B. P.

' HARRI MACHINE SHOP PUTS HIGH POLISH ON LIBRARY DRIVE The Juneau Memorial Library fund—although over the top for some days now in. its four-year drive to get $70,000 to be erected— got an extremely high polish today from the Harri Machine Shop of this city—in the shape of $25 worth of “grinding rouge.” Coupled with this, eight young Juneau schoolgirls got together and gave $8.75 to Dr. James C. Ryan, commissioner of education and li- brary board member. While Dr. Ryan was totaling up these contributions, ‘B. D. Stewart, acting drive chairman, set about putting the home on the property owned by the library board up for sale. It must be moved or wrecked within a short time. A tentative time schedule for getting everything under way was set up by the General Services Administration, federal Agency which will match funds for con- struction of the building, but is not definite enough for announce- ment. Bids must be called for thirty days before g contract ‘may be signed, it was explained, Harri's donation coupled with that of the girls, adds up the fund now on hand to $7140694. It doesn’t seem to want to stop. But this money can be used—if a little is good, a whole lot is better. Names of the girls who made up the $8.75 donation are: Carol Lawrence, Anne Livie, Bet- ty Lou Hukyll, Janis Jorgenson, Nancy Berggren, Charloite Conine, Ann Nelson and Ann Haugen. The Harri check, a donation of the ‘company, was signed by Jack R. Clark, the company’s president.
