We ome him most heartily as Com- oner of Education.” Opening the Parent-Teachers’ program, the Junior Band, conduc- ted by Lyle Manson, played a group of four lively numbers, followed by numbers from the fifth grade and eighth grade choruses. The choruses were directed by Miss Marjorie Iverson. All were splendid and en- thusiastically received by the au- dience. Their performances reflec- ted the ability of their instructors, both of whom .it is regretted, are leaving the staff of the fichnul:’ this year. oh sche New Officers Mrs, Florence Oakes, president of the P.-TA, over the busi meeting. She in- troduced the new and re-elected officers by way of an informal in- stallation for the coming yvear; MIs. Stanley Grummett, v president; Ralph Wright, treasurer,rand Wil- lis Avery, secretary. A letter was read by Violet Sea- berg, secretal from the fourth grade pupils, signed by Charlotte Thorpe, thanking the P.-T.A. for its gift of a picture to the class at the last P.-T.A. meeting. i Club Aid Then followed a letter from the Juneau Ski Club asking aid of the P.-T.A. in promoting planned im- provements to the winter recrea- tion area on Douglas Island. On the project is a new and enclosed cabin at the first meadow where the public may enjoy ski and win- ter sports events without being out in' the cold. It would be of ample size with a snack bar where hoL! lunches could be served. Other im-) provements would include more clearance of the slalom run pf| trees and a new ski tow. The P.-T.A. voted unanimously to back the project in view of the benefit | it would afford Juneau's younger | group. Mrs. Oakes thanked P.-T\A. of- ficers, committees and members for the fine support given her dur- ing her term as president the past year. Mrs. Jack Popejoy then rose to ask a vote of appreciation to Mrs. Oakes for her excellent lead- ership of the organization. Ap-i plause from the members was en- thusiastic. Following the meeting, cake and cotiee were served in the high school home economics room by ! eighth grade mothers with Mrs. William Whitehead as chairman. Departing teachers were present and were given best wishes of the P.T.A. members in their future en- deavors.

CRIME CASE FROM ALASKA IS TAKEN UP WASHINGTON, May 22 — (B — to rule on the legal technicality that overturned the rape killing conyic- tion of an Alaskan still in prison for the attempted rape of a second woman Harvey L. Carignan, of Anchorage, was convicted in the U. S. District Court in Alaska and was sentenced to death. He was accused of killing Mrs. Laura A. Showalter on the night of July 31, 1949, Thé government said that while Carignan was being held on another charge of assault with attempt to rape another woman, he voluntar- ily made admissions that he had at- tacked Mrs. Showalter. He was first convicted on the rape attempt and then of murder in Mrs. Showalter’s death. Carignan appealed the murder conviction to the Circuit Court in San Francisco. That court ruled the ! alleged admissions were not admis- sable as evidence at the murder trial because at the time they were made Carignan had not been ar- raigned on the murder charge. On that ground it set aside Carignan’s conviction. The Justice Department then appealed to the Supreme Court to review the case and overturn the Circuit Court ruling. Meantime, the trial judge who had stayed sentence on the rape at- tempt conviction, sentenced Carig-| nan to 15 years in prison on that charge. He is in jail at Seward, Alaska.

Every day the Home Office of the New York Life Insurance Company receives a great many applications for insur- ance from mothers. This indi- cates a very real need for life insurance which I believe more people ought to know about. Many married women take life insurance because they realize that, in event of their death, it will protect the hus- band from depleting his sav- ings or going into debt to pay the costs of medical care and final expenses. In addition, it will help the husband to keep the family together during the difficult readjustment period following her death. If the mother outlives the father, the same policy could increase her funds for her own old age. 119 CARRIED ON ALASKA COASTAL WEEKEND TRIPS on Alaska 1 250 with 51 and 119 Weekend passengers Coastal Airlines totale on interport, 80 dey arriving.
