HIGH SCHOOL : SHOW MAKES
 "SMASH HIT"

A large audience was. enthusias-
 tic in its praise of Sailor Maids, ,
 an operetta produced by the high
 school students last night at the Elks' Hall It will be given again tonight for the last time The song hits, dance specialties and
 comedy lines went over big last
 night, and the production showed a smoothness which spoke eloquent ly of the work put in by both the directors and the cast.
 Especial mention should be made of the setting and credit given to Henning Berggren, Lloyd Bayers, Fred Orme and Robert Hurley, for the excellent work they did. The scene cleverly represented the porch of Cyrus Templeton's house and part of the lighthouse tower. It was well made and the effect was vividly realistic.
 All of the parts were well taken, the principals had their lines pat and the show went without hitch, keeping the attention of the audi ence for the two hours it lasted. The plot, a favorite one with musical shows, has a confused iden- tity, two love stories, which after difficulties, terminate pleasantly for all, frequent excuses for the at- tractively dressed ensemble to ap- pear on the stage, and for all to sing.
 The story has to do with Fran ces Marie, daughter of Cyrus Tenn pleton the lighthouse keeper, and
 captain of yachting crew of Sailor Maids, who is celebrating her eighteenth birthday and the launch l ing of her new yacht. The part was vivaciously taken by Dorothy Bakke, who exhibited pleasing soprano voice. Edward Dover, a childhood sweetheart, whom Fran
 ces Marie has not seen for eight
 years, is to pilot the yacht on it's
 maiden voyage, but detesting the ocean and knowing nothing of boats ne manages to trade names for tho
 time being with David Kern, who

comes to the house with message from the caterer. Both parts were well played. Edward by Alex Kiloh, and David, by Brian Harland, who were adequate in both the acting and the individual song bits.
 Frances Marie believes David to be her childhood sweetheart and he becomes greatly interested in her, while Edward, mistaken for the caterer, and Jeanette, friend of Frances Marie, are attracted to each other. Edna Riendeau, vividly brunette, as Jeannette, was a per feet contrast to the blondness of Miss Bakke, and played her part capably.
 The climax comes when David learns Frances Marie's engagement to Edward Dover, is soon to be an- nounced The true identity of both is revealed and Frances Marie and her friends are shocked, but eventu- ally won over by the explanations. The young men clear themselves and win the girls.
 Carl Jensen as Cyrus Templeton, and William Norton as Captain Do- yer, father of Edward, won praise for their handling of the difficult task of looking and acting like mid dle-aged men, and Xenia Kashe- varoff was excellent as the Swedish maid.
 Best Work
 Perhaps the best piece of work in the show was done by Billy Sparks, as Gerald Kennedy, a devoted suit )r of Frances Marie He neither overplayed, nor underplayed, and was without elf-consciousness or affectation.
 The costumes were attractive and most becoming to the youthful cast they looked fresh and appropri- ately nautical in the first act, and in the second more formal but love ly and colorful. Miss Helen Gray should be congratulated for her capable handling of the problem of costuming such a large cast.
 Dance Features
 Among the most enthusiastically applauded bits were the dance fea- lures by Harriet Holman and Gard ner Leighton throughout the show They were fast, modern and full of pep and helped lot to keep the show moving at good pace. The orchestra, composed of eighteen high school students, was fine.
 Between the acts, Miss Dorothy Fisher, director of the orchestra work in the high school. was pre- sented with a baton by President H. L. Faulkner of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce, in appre- citation of the work done by her orchestra at the Chamber banquet to the members of the Legislature. The baton was made of iron bark with ends of Alaskan ivory. The ivory was furnished by c. W. Hawkesworth, and the baton was made by Mort Truesdell. The pre- sentation came as complete sur prise to everyone except those im- mediately concerned.
 Miss Fisher, Miss Dorothy Chis- holm and Miss Ardena Leer, teach CTS who shared the direction of the production, deserve credit for put ting over the show successfully.
