With the present trend in Hol- lywood pointing toward semidocu- mentary film fare, it is puzzling why the moviemakers haven't pointed their cameras at the Pasa- dena Tournament of Roses before |this. The great flower-covered floats, bands and horsemen, plus the climactic Rose Bowl football game, which are fitted into the story of “Peggy,” become topnotch entertainers under the skilled hand of Director Frederick deCordova. "W’ President lands 22 Times On lcefield Dr. Terris Moore, president of the University of Alaska, returned to Fairbanks late Wednesday after devoting several days of his vaca- tion to the Juneau Icefield Re- search Project. From Saturday through Wednes- day Dr. Moore made 22 landings with the Piper Super Cub at five camp sites on the icefield. The different camps, at levels Ibetween 3,600 and 6,000 feet, pre- sent a great variety of snow con- ditions, with exceptionally smooth snow at the upper levels, which could provide excellent skiing, es- pecially later in the summer. This season has proven to those on the icefield that transportation int¢ a ski area can be simple and inexpensive. A small plane needs a smooth stretch two or three hundred feet long to provide land- ing and take-off facilities. In addition to the 22 landings made in transportation of men and gear about the icefield, Dr. Moore ing with Mrs. Moore who sailed on the Princess Norah on Tuesday. flew out to the main camp with Dr. Moore and had lunch with the crew there, visiting other camps later in the day, one of which was | newly established Camp 8, at the highest point on the icefield gla- cier surface. At Camp 16 on the flat crest of the Lemon Glacier, Dr. Moore landed gasoline and equipment to be used by the JIRP men in co-op- eration with a meteorology team |from the Air Forces Arctic Weather | Central. This camp is the westernmost weather station and can be seen from the Glacier Highway.
