Anthony Reed, non-professionally) daughtet of Mr. and Mrs. Trevor M. Davis, is currently being featured 'as solo cellist with Ving Merlin's all-girl orchestra, “Enchanted Strings.” Merlin’s ensemble, the first of its kind in Television, is now appear- ing from 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. Mon- day through Saturday at the Ter- race Room of one of New York’s most well-known hotels, the New Yorker. Previously “on call” with this orchestra, Miss Davis did con- siderable substitute work in TV shows during this last year; how- ever, she is now under contract. Since her return to New York City two years ago, Miss Davis has been acting in television and films and also organized her own girls’ musical unit “The Twilighters” | which has performed on- TV for fashion showing, etc. Studying constantly on her two instruments, cello and piano, Shir- ley has been tutored this last year by Frank Miller, first cellist of the NBC Symphony. John Ranck, for- merly Maggie Teyte's accompanist and a wellknown pianist, teaches her piano. Hoping to secure a month’s leave of absence from the Merlin orch- [ | estra, Shirley is looking forward to | a visit to Juneau in August. ' How- ever, movie and TV commiitments of the orchestra have to be settled before she can plan definitely.

"THE OUTRIDERS,” THRILL FEATURE AT CAPITOL THEATRE A magnificently photographed, absorbingly dramatic motion pic- ture is being shown at the Capitol Theatre in M-G-M’s “The Outrid- ers,” one of the year’s prize-contend- ing outdoor dramas. Filmed in Technicolor against the spectacular mountain and canyon setting of Utah, here is the compell- ing story of three Yankees who | | escape from a Missouri prison stock- ade during the Civil War and em- | bark on one of the strangest and | suspense-filled adventures to be shown on the screen in a decade of | | film-making. Joel McCrea, Barry Sullivan and James Whitmore form the oddly { assorted trio who make their escape |only to find themselves prisoners | again, this time in the hands of a J roving band of guerrillas led by one }af Quantrell’s infaméus raiders. | | In exchange for their lives they agree to head for Santa Fe, New Mexico to become instruments in a plan to ambush a wagon train | carrying a million dollars in gold bullion for the Federal Treasury in St. Louis. Before this 800-mile trek is completed, the members of the i wagon train encounter one hazard after another, including an Indian |attack. a disastrous stampede of livestock and a terrifying episode in | which the caravan is forced to cross | the rain-swollen Arkansas River and in which the youngest rider in the | group, played by Claude Jarman Jr., loses his life in an act of cowardice. This starts thrilling developments. AMERICAN LEGION SCHOOL AWARD 70 BE MADE TUESDAY The annual presentation of The American Legion School Award will he made Tuesday morning at 10:30 o'clock as a part of the “J—Day” program, according to L. B. Avrit, Juneau High School principal. Su- | serintendent of Schools, Sterling Sears, expressed himself as belng | sratified that the Legion will again recognize one boy and one girl of the senior class with the medals and certificates denoting this phase | k| of the organization’s Americanism activities. The objective is to foster and encourage good citizenship, and to give recognition to several qualities which have been demonstrated as being possessed by the recipients. The senior class has a share in determining the winners, and qual- ities upon which the decisions rest include honor, courage, scholarship, leadership, service, companionship (and character. A group of American Legion offl- cers will attend for the personal presentation and there will be a brief ceremony in advancing of the flag of the United States and the banner of Juneau Post No. 4. “J—Day” is a traditional part of end of term festivities, and since the event will include awarding of various other trophies, and is to be conducted in the high school gymnasium, it has been planned primarily as a student function, and not as a public demonstration.

L.| Anderson, director of the depart-| ment, said today. | Robert R. Parker, department bi- | ologist now tagging and releasing iish caught by Carl Weidman, Ju- | neau troller, reported from Auk Bay yesterday that he had tagged 23 salmon in that region. All were released as soon as they were tagged .and may go after sportsmen’s lures this weekend. | “There have been cases reported | of fish being caught a couple days | after they were tagged,” Anderson said. The fish tagged and released av- eraged 20 pounds. The red and white number-bear- ing tags are on either end of a nickel-plated pin driven through the flesh of the fish immediately below the dorsal fin. For tagging, they were landed in a dip net and tagged while being held down in a live-box through which water circulated. . All the fish were released in good condi- tion, Parker reported. Parker reported that the fish were probably feeding in the Auk Bay area and not headed for spawning grounds. “There’'s a good possibility the fish may feed in the Auk Bay area for some time,” Anderson said. The most important information to return with the tag to the Al- aska Department of FPisheries is the date and place the fish was taken, the type of gear it was taken with, and the length of the fish from its snout to the fork of its tail. “We'd also like to know the sex of the fish—and whether or not it appears to be a spawn fish,” Anderson said, “If the fisherman catching a tagged salmon will also scrape some scales off on a pitce of paper, and send them in with the tag, it will help us determine the age of the fish.” Those people sending in tags will be sent a personal letter by the department of fisheries. The letter will give the date and place of the fish's original capture, it's present length, and, if scale sam- ples are sent in with the tag, the age of the fish when it was cap- tured, Anderson said. ’ CARD PARTY TONIGHT PROMISES SUCCESS Reservations already made for tonight's card party, given by the AWVS at the Governor’s House, give promise of the party being a real success. It is being held to raise funds for the club’s pledge to the Juneau Memorial Library fund. Bridge, canasta, poker, and pin- ochle will be played. Although reservations have been made with Mrs. John H. Clements, it is stressed that persons will be welcomed without having made res- ervation and tables will be made up at which they may play their favorite game. Card playing will start at 8 p.m. JUNEAU CITY BAND TO PRACTICE MONDAY Director Joseph Shofner has is- syed a call for the members of the Juneau City band to meet next Monday night at 8 o'clock in the grade school auditorium for a prac- tice.

WIRE-DULLING AT [COASTAL FLIGHTS FAIRBANKS GOES ON; STRIKE NEAR FAIRBANKS, Alaska, May 12—® —The deadlock between® electrical workers and the Fairbanks Ex- ploration Company continued today with no immediate hope of settle- ment. Local 1,550 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (AFL) served notice on the com- pany Wednesday that it would strike next Monday and shut down most of the Fairbanks area power unless granted a union shop. Company and union made coun- ter offers to handle any emergency service for the city if the strike actually starts. No decision was reached. Mayor Maurice T. Johnson asked the federal mediation and concil- liation service in Portland, Oregon to aid in obtaining an early settle- ment. In public statement, Johnson said the city was not taking sides, but would do all possible to help the disputants reach an early agree-: ment and remove the danger of a power shutdown, which he said would affect nearly 90 per cent ‘of the homes in the metropolitan area. The mayor also noted the possi- ble health hazards in shutting down of water pumps, cooking facilities and refrigerators. Here are the emergency period offers made today: By Roy B. Earling, vice-presi- dent and general manager of the company’s Alaska operations: Keep power plant in operation, supply power to city on conditfn plant may be operated by reduced crew comprised of present employ- es, under same terms provided in contract which expired May 1. Make retroactive for these employ= es terms of any new contract. The union offer: Maintain' operation of the plant on condition that power generated be used only by the Northern Com- mercial Co., and Golden Valiey Electric Association which supplies power to outlying areas and city, but lines to the F. E. Company are not to be energized. It also was demanded that on reduced opera- tion, all present employes in the plant be kept on the payroll and the company agree to a closed shop during the life of the agreement. A five-day, 40-hour week was stip- ulated, with double time for all overtime.
