TUESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1951 E'Smte You Went ‘Away' Bill Tonight 'At Capifol Theafre “Since You Went Away” comes to the Capitol Theatre tonight for a |Tun of three days. Claudette Col- | bert is the featured star supported by a splendid cast. Compelling address is made to the | screen audiences of America by | David O. Selznick in his examina- |tion of the United States at war. |Its drama is in the emotions of a wife whose husband has gone in | the service overseas, with incidental | episodic reactions in the home he left behind him. It makes velvety approach to realism with suave di- rection and sleek telling of a story that is mostly moods which flow past like cloud shadows on a lake. That is all there is of story con- tent. Implied and behind it, if the spectator. is sufficiently conscious, is the great thundering story of the war, which comes in only as echoes come, poignant in their dis- tance.

Sherman Starr, lllusirated Talk Hydroelectric Power Is Given fo BPW( Third - dimensional color slides were shown to the Business and Professional Women’s Club Monday by Joseph M. Morgan who gave an accompanying lecture on “Hydro- electric Power in Alaska and How it Affects the Alaskan Public.” “Since man invented the wheel new and wonderous innovations have evolved to lighten our burdens,”| said Morgan. “And to date the| greatest of these has been the ad- vent of electrical energy.” He discussed how low-cost power holds the key to industrial develop- | ment for Alaska and related what the Bureau of Reclamation was do- ing to bring about this in a definite way. Among projects mentioned %ere the Blue Lake project near Sitka, Swan Lake near Ketchikan, | the Wickersham projedt on Beaver Creek in the Fairbanks area, the Susitna River basin project; all of which are in areas that need power for development. Lake Dorothy pro- ject near Juneau was mentioned but | it will not be developed until in-| dustry justifies the need of its con-; struction, said Mr. Morgan. He told | of the Eklutna project near An- chorage and outlined the unique manner of water diversion through a 4’2 mile tunnel in Goat Mountain, which would secure power supply and will be free from bombing in case of aerial attack. The third dimensional slides il- lustrated the lecture and flower slides of the Mount McKinley area and Haines were included. The polaroid glasses passed around created a mild stir among the crowd. Mrs. Mavera Morgan, vice-presi- dent, presided in the absence of President Helene Price who was presenting the gift gavel to tHe newly organized Sitka BPWC which received its charter today.
