X Bright light directed UP THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA BIG SPORT BILL IS | OPENING TONIGHT | The most thrilling sports spectacle in history is now brought to the screen in brilliant Technicolor and in its entirety, “The Olympic Games of 1948.” All the thrills, action, color, grandeur and pageantry of the actual competitions are packed in this production for this week end at the Capitol Theatre starting to- night. From a seat right on the finish line, moviegoers will see the out- come of every event in the action packed thrills. Ted Husing and Bill Stern do the narrating of each spine-tingling event exactly as it occurred.

The other feature on this double bill is “High Fury” starring Mad- eleine Carroll, supported by Ian Hunter and Michael Rennie. Gruening Warns "Prepare for Any Eventuality’ in War Gov. Ernest Gruemmng issued ‘a proclamation today which pulled no punches regarding Alaska's vul- nerable position in event of any major foreseeable war, and called upon all communities in the Terri- tory to “prepare immediately for any eventuality.” The proclamation particularly called upon the director of civilian defense — named recently as Col. Joseph D. Alexander, acting adjut- lnnl general of the Alaska National Guard—to establish and organize defense facilities on a Territory- wide basis and to “cooperate with the various communities in pro- moting similar preparedness and organization within their bound- aries.” Alaska’s geographical and logistic position suggests the possibility of its direct involvment in any con- flict, the governor proclaimed, and so “all communities are urged to avail themselves of whatever facili- ties may be procurable.” Preliminary work toward organi- zation of a civilian defense agency was done last week in Anchorage, at a meeting of the governor, Col- onel Alexander, and Lieut. Gen. Nathan F. Twining. Mayors of all cities were called upon to make plans for defense and to issue suggestions as to what should be done to suit the particular terrain in event of attack.
