On rhe very day that his prosaic day-by-day | | existence of working at the ufixcv and coming home each night at the | same time to his wife (Jane Wyatt) | and little son (Jimmy Hunt) starts getting on his nerves, he meets up | with a new case that changes his life completely. | This new case involves sultry | Mona Stevens, played by Lizabeth | Scott, who is involved with an em- | bezzler now in jail by the name | of Smiley (Byron Barr). As Special | Investigator he meets Mona and is | strongly drawn toward her that he loses all sense of discretion.

A sloppy, lazy salesperson would ruin in a short time the business you have worked years to develop. Your printing should be judged in the same light. In many cases your letterhead and business forms are the only criteria by which custom- ers and manufacturers judge you and your business. Your printing has to be good! Almost any shop can fill your next printing order, but if you want printing that sells you and your business — printing that will stimulate sales — carefully planned printing — drop in at your convenience and consult with Ken Waller, the head of our job shop. He will be pleased to show you how carefully planned printing can help build your business. Mr. Waller’s skill has won us many compliments, but, seeing is beliey- ing. That’s why we want you to see for yourself how Empire printing can help boost your sales.” “for a better impression” call the Empire Printing Company | boat from San " | where the Henderson At 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.—Silver Tea and | THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE- Base in California’s Mojave Desert. excess of 560 miles per hour duri bombs weighing 500 to 4,000 pounds and at altitudes up to 20,000 feet. speeds at which bombs had been dropped suecessfully from an operat Forces fastest operational bomber, during World War IL bombs. (P Wirephoto. FRIDAY MORNING Retracing thc long trail his p‘u- ents took him over when he | year and a half old at the time u( the gold rush in 1898 into the Yu- | kon, led H. A. Henderson north on |his ketch rig with his wife and daughter. Mr. and Mrs. Henderson and their | daughter, Mrs. Gloria Hall, made the trip aboard their 36 foot sailing Francisco leaving there about June 15 and arriving here about 10 days ago. Mrs. Hs left for the states by Pan American but her parents continued to Skag- way on the Prince George. Arriving in Whitehorse over the White Pass and Yukon Railroad, the | Hendersons boarded a river boat | for Dawson City. When they arriv- |ed there, they found no overland transportation available to contin- ue the trip out to Dominion Creek claim had been. Mr. Henderson’s father had a store here in Juneau at the time of the gold rush. With the others he got the gold fever and took his | wife and year and a half old son | over the route his boy and wife just retraced. Mr. and Mrs. Henderson flew into | Fairbanks from Dawson City. Tak- ing the bus from Fairbanks to Hain- es, the couple returned to Juneau from Haines by air. ‘With the replacement of two lines today, the Hendersons will leave tomorrow on their ketch rig for San Francisco. Their route south will take them by way of Seymour Narrows; Victoria where they will stop to pick up two auxiliary sails, a stop at the Columbia River and then home. The trip south will take about three weeks. Mr. Henderson, formerly an insur- ance salesman, didn't like the con- finement his job made for him. He invested in a laundry at Modesto, Calif., with another man and now the two take turns at vacations. The Lady Hank of San Francisco, the Henderson ketch rig, sleeps four people easily and is equipped with a radio telephone and a 44 horsepower auxiliary Gray m()Lm'.‘ She carries 340 gallons of fresh water, 155 gallons of gasoline for the | motor and 75 gallons of Kerosene for cooking and lamps. The ketch, said Henderson, cannot ship water with the closing of the hatch be- cause the cockpit is self bailing. The Hendersons will take the boat to San Francisco themselves without a third party because the ketch is that easily handled. FROM EVERETT . George .
