 OF OWN HERE

 to Investigate

1 Juneau's year-old Drama Club wasted no time last night at the High School in it's first fall meet ing, in setting up machinery for the acquisition of little theatre of it's own.
 Having proven last spring that Juneau wants and appreciates the legitimate stage with the success ful production of a comedy, Loose Ankles the Drama Club moved, last night, toward a goal of own- ing or leasing a theatre of its own for the development of more ex- banded drama program.

 If a theatre is obtained, the club would present not only it's planned three major productions during the year. but would offer series of one-act plays and would sponsor appearances of outside" artists and speakers.
 Other business details last night found several official replacements being named. Several members have left Juneau permanently, but last nights meeting found many pros pective new members in attend ance. The major position to be re- placed, pr. H. c. DeVighne's di- rectorship. will not be decided upon until the next meeting, scheduled for Tuesday, October 1

ATLANTIC CURRENT
TRACED FAR IN EAST
Soviet Scientists Find Ocean
Warmth as Far as Wrangel
Islands.
BY the Associated Press.

MOSCOW, November 2.-Discovery
that warm current from the Atlantic
Ocean penetrates Arctic regions as far
east as Wrangel Island, only 500 miles
from Bering Strait, was announced to-
day after investigations by Soviet
scientists aboard the ice-breaker Kras-
sin.
A current had already been discov-
cred 1,700 miles to the west, between
Northland and Franz Josef Land, by
the ice-breaker Sadko last Summer
George Ushakoff, head of the Sadko
expedition, expressed the belief the
current may traverse the whole north
ern sea route from Europe to the Far
East.
The findings of the Krassin scien-
lists were regarded as of great i'm
portance. bearing out Ushakoff's be-
lief.
The Soviet Union, intent on opening
the Arctic route to regular navigation,
has sent out numerous expeditions in
the last few years to chart channels
and collect data to permit accurate
prediction Of ice formations.
The warm Atlantic current might
make navigation possible considerably
to the north of the routes now found
practicable. the scientists believe.

Beverly -Marblehead, Mass, Con.

sentative Andrew.

By the Associated Press.
BEVERLY, Mass, November IA
former lieutenant colonel in the Unit
ed States Army today accepted the
role of arbiter in warm dispute over
the birthplace of the United States
Navy.
The Army veteran, Representative
A. Piatt Andrew, Republican, of
Gloucester, member of the House
Committee on Naval Affairs, was
asked by Mayor James A. Torrey of
Beverly to say whether Beverly or that
equally ancient North Shore port,
Marblehead, deserved that honor.
Andrew said he would see Secretary
of the Navy Swanson and make a
search of departmental records.
For century Beverly and Marble
head have been in dispute about the
Navy's birthplace. Beverly's claim to
the honor, city officials say, rests upon
the fact that the schooner Hannah
was commissioned by George Washing
ton and sailed from Beverly Septem-
Der 2, IT'S.

LABOR DELEGATE
HELD EMBARRASSING
Democrats Dislike Selection Of
w. L. Hutcheson to Inter-
national Conference.

BY the assoc ateC ereSS.
Some Democratic labor leaders re-
ported yesterday they were embarrassed
by the American Federation of Labors
selection of w. L. Hutcheson as labor
delegate to the International Labor
Organization Conference in Santiago,
Chile, late next month.
Hutcheson, who had a brief fist
fight with John L. Lewis, mine leader,
at the federation's convention two
weeks ago, has been an outspoken
critic of New Deal policy.
1t was learned that some Demo-
cratic labor leaders, believing the ap-
pointment would be source Of en-
barrassment to the administration,
protested to William Green, federation
president. Green pointed out that the
nomination was unanimously ap-
proved by the Executive Committee.
Lewis, however, was absent from that
meeting.
The usual procedure in the past has
been for Green himself to give two or
three names to the Labor Secretary.
From these, the President, after con-
ferring with Labor Department Off
cials, has selected one. The Chief Ex-
ecutive also selects two other dele
gates representing the Government
and industry.
Hutcheson is president Of the Car
penters' Union and among the lead
ers of the craft union group opposed
to Lewis industrial union faction.
The nomination is now in the hands
to Secretary Perkins, but it has not
been passed on to the President.
Hutcheson was head of the Hoover
Labor Committee in the last presi-
dental campaign.
