ALASKA LIKE HOME, SAYS MONTANAN Of all the professional photog- raphers now and recently in Ju- neau, Ross Madden probably feels the closest kinship with Alaskans. “It's my first trip,” Le sald, “but I felt at home instantly. Probably it's the general attitude—you see,; I came from Montana, about 125 miles from Livingston. It's more than Alaskans just naturally being ; home folks—so’ many places look the same. The first three places I went would look right at home there. Mike’s is a dead-ringer for one of my favorite Montana spots.” Madden, a free-lance cameraman now bascd in- Los Angeles, is in Juneau for two or three weeks on assignments for The Ladies’ Home Journal and Mademoiselle Mag- azine, He wants to do general pic- tures hereabouts, and is firing sug- gestions to Black Star, his New T York agent. While in the Ter- i ruory on these assignments, he wants to get new ideas. Madden , came here by boat, to get a rest after a strenuous job for Life Mag- azine, ranging through the western states. Candid photography is his stock in ‘trade, through an individualistic approach—he likes to take pictures that record situations. Asked how he learned to take pictures, Mad- den replied, “Behind a camera— but you never finish learning.” The August issue of Coronet car= ries 16 Madden photographs in the picture story, “California: Dream- {land West.” A recent picture series |was “Thig, Thing Called Lovs,” | teaturing movie starlets. The May cover of The Ladies’ Home Journal, in the “Undiscovered American | Beauties” series was his—a picture of a little telephone operator. Madden does a great deal of work for Life Magazine. One Life ispread which attracted unusual at- ‘tennon was his documentary treat- ment of the Spencer Tracy Clinfc { for hard-of-hearing children. Among noted photographers in ithe vicinity are John Roberts, Low- ell Thomas' cameraman, who 1Is with the explorer-commentator oh [the Juneau Ice Cap, and Amos Burg, director-photographer for En- cyclopedia Britannica films for the University of Chicago, who will continue his Alaska jaunt aboard the North Star. Recently here were photographers representing Life, Look and the Saturday Evening Post.

Presented with magnificent force, | the story, a skillful blend for ad- | venture and romance, is based on | the novel “Rough Sketch” by Robert | Sylvester. Under the direction of ‘1948 Academy Awards winner John Huston, the film is said to present shocking facts and contain terrify- |ing drama! | Garfield is being widely acclaimed :mr his biting portrait of a Cuban jraised in the U.S. who returns to | Havana to participate in a vast con- | spiracy; Miss Jones portrays a lovely | young girl sucked into the plot by events beyond her control, while | Armendariz plays a brutal official of | the secret police. COAST LEAGUE TO SEE CHANGES IN PLAYER LINEUPS (By the. Associated Press) l The Pacific Coast League cam- paign enters its 20th week tonight, | with some noteworthy alterations in | the status of five players. | Heading the list is outfielder Johnny Berardino, on option to isacrumenw from Cleveland. The Solons gave him back. to the In- ldhans yesterday, mainly because they couldn’t support him in the style to which he’s been accustomed. Berardino reportedly was being } paid in the neighborhood of $20,000, Iund that’s a mighty ritzy neighbor- jhood for a last place club. Anyway, the gentleman was only hitting .228. Next comes the sudden recupera- tion of pitcher Pinky Woods, given | up for lost two weeks ago by Holly- wood. Manager Fred Haney joyously announced. that Woods has re- covered from his thigh injury seoner than anticipated. So much so, in fact, that Woods will pitch tonight's home series opener against Port- land. 2 |” The Hollywoods also will trot out two new heavy-hitting-they-hope !oumelders this week—Johnny Lin- dell and George Schmees. Lindell will be making his first appearance in the home park; Schmees is ex- pected in from Montreal today. Portland has some recent addi- tions of its own, however, namely Fenton Mole and Leo Thomas. The home run boy, too, Joe Brovia. There also are murmurings from PCL headquarters to the effect that the prevailing 200-game schedule , will be trimmed somewhat next year. It conflicts with the football season. Otherwise, the situation is pretty much ho-hum, what with Oakland holding a 9% game lead and all. The Oaks entertain Seattle tonight in a series opener at Emeryville. YOUNG ESKIMO SERGEANT ON FIRST TRIP TO JUNEAU William Anaruk of Bethel knows Anchorage and Fairbanks well, be- sides scores of places to the north and west, and he has been outside, {too. But he came to Juneau for the first time last week, and thor- oughly enjoyed a six-day stay in the capital, stopping at the Bar- anof Hotel. *Now the handsome young Eskimo is a sergeant in the Alaska National Guard and in charge of all the Guard equipment at this key point near the mouth of the Kuskokwim River. He joined when the Second Scout Battalion was formed there about a year ago, and has worked up the ranks from private. Sergeant Anaruk came here to confer with National Guard offic- ials and see at first-hand the oper- ations of Headquarters and Head- quarters Service Company. With Col. J. D. Alexander, Acting AN.G. Adjutant, he was a. passenger to Anchorage yesterday aboard the B-17 of Maj. Gen. Frank A, Arm- strong, Jr., commanding general, Alaskan Air Command. Bill Anaruk is well-known in and near Fairbanks, where he has raced his team of nine dogs. (Bill and his dogs are pictured on Page 201 of the 1950 Alaska Almanac.) Although Bill, who was born in Selawik on the Arctic Circle, has lived in Unalakleet, Little Diomede Island, Kotzebue and Candle, he is having to study the Eskimo lan- guage. His parents were teachers in those places for some 38 years. Since his father’s death a year ago, he and his mother have made their home in Bethel, where she is an interpreter in the hospital. What does Anaruk remember of the five years he spent on Little Diomede as a youngster? “Rocks,” he say. “Rocks and these scratches I still have on my kuees.” Mrs. Joe Skaris of Sitka is at the Baranof Hotel, 1 Cramer - Fay Wedding Held Last Saturday At a simple ceremony Saturday afternoon at the Resurrection Lu- theran Church, Miss Ethel Grace Fay, daughter of Mr. Fred Wall of Spokane, and Mr. Donald Edgar Cramer, sgp of Mr. and Mrs. E. M. Cramer of Seattle, were united in marriage by the Rev. G. Herbert Hillerman. The soft light of candles was the . only illumination as the vows wele spoken at 2 p.m. and baskets Cf Jdowers decorated the altar. The bride was lovely in a suit of brown and beige, with green accessories and wore a corsage of gardenias. Her maid of honor, Miss Harriet Penwell, wore a stN of chartreuse with navy accessoriis | and her corsage was of roses. The | groom was attended by Ross Mad- | den, international photographer who is here on assignment for the Ladies’ Home Journal. The bride arrived here last week from Seattle and the groom has been in Juneau since last May. He served in World War II with the Navy in the South Pacific and | is employed at the Northern Com- mercial Company here, Following the wedding Saturday, a trip by cabin cruiser was enjoyed up Lynn Canal. Upon return, members of the wedding party had dinner at the Baranof Hotel. At present Mr. and Mrs. Cramer are at the Juneau Hotel but their fu- ture home will be established here. IWILLIAMS TAKES | ANOTHER LICKING WASHINGTON, Aug. 8 — (® — Lightweight champion Ike Williaths took another licking last night— this time at the gloves of a prac- tically unknown welterweight from Phoenix, Ariz. Charley Salas, 22-year-old Mex- ican-Italian, gained an easy 10- round decision over Willlams—win- ning seven and dropping two. The other round was even. Williams weighed in at 139% pounds; Salas' at 146. Williams' loss to Salas, coming only a month after a similar de- feat by welterweight Georgle (Su- gar) Costner, made a rematch be- tween Costner and Williams, pro- Iposed for next month at Madison Square Garden, somewhat doubtful.

Frank Wright shoved long-time leader Dr. C. E. Albrecht back one spot in the cutthroat division by entering a four-pound nine-ounce whopper he took in Turner Lake. Dr. Albrecht’s 3-pound 13-owf* entry is still good enough to give him a three-ounce margin for | second place. Third place is held by Al Bloom- quist, who is a newcomer to the upper reaches of the cutthroat div- ision ladder. His/ entry weighed three-pounds ten-ounces. ‘The trout derby, 'a no-charge con- test, ends August 15. Biggest fish to be entered so far is one which gave Douglas Blanch- ard the first spot in the Dolly Varden division.. The six-pound four-ounce fish' was caught in Johnson Creek which flows into Taku River. Luis deFlorin holds down second place with a five-pound four-ounce entry, while Carl Lane is in third place with a four-pound ten-ounce fish. The derby began June 1 and picked up speed as the summer# season progressed, the Dolly Varden division showing the most improve- ment. Turner Lake, which is within outboard motor boat range from Juneau, has given up two of three leaders in the cutthroat division. Anyone may enter the Chamber of Commerce trout derby. Head- quarters is the Juneau Young Hard- ware Company. Two sets of prizes—one for cut- throats, the other for Dolly Var- dens—will be awarded. Top prizes are .30-06 rifles, with fly-fishing outfits for second prizes and’ bait- casting outfits for third prizes. SEATTLEITES HERE Among Seattleites at the Baranot Hotel are T. L. Danagher, J.

His role as Merton Gill, the stage- struck movie usher who leaves the security and friendliness of Tinker- ton, Kansas, to brave the perils of | the Hollywood of silent-film days' gives him unlimited opportunity to | show his bag of tricks, and he makes the most of it. Merton goes to Hollywood self confident, full of illusions and de- , termined to be another John Barry- more at the very least. Totally un-! conscious that he is a “ham” of the ! first water, he has a profound con- ! tempt for the comedians of the celluloid and considers his career | purely in terms of art with a capi- | tal “A" i Also Albert Peter-' Beavers possess the league’s No. 1|0f Kotzebue are at the Baraifof son and his accordion.
