Of trumps and was down one trick ct
his grand slam contract.
North and South were both master
players, but do not generally play
together In the same games. However,
they were quite upset with this result,
since 1t Is decidedly bad tactics to bid
q grand slam which depends upon Q
finesse, and there was considerable dis
cussion.
South pointed out that his partners
red kings were both duplication and
that had North held some such hand
as four spades to the ace-king, two
little hearts, singleton diamond and
six clubs to the ace-king queen the
grand slam would have been made
easily.
North retorted that South was en-
deavoring to give his partner certain
specified cards, and against that par
ticular holding there were any number
Of holdings, such as the one he actually
held, where seven should not be bid.
Furthermore, North pointed out that
South had made q free bid Of one
spade and hence had shown some
values already.
South was still not satisfied, where
upon North produced bis dnal -asg1.

Dr. w. M. Whitehead and it was decided to proceed with the enter prise. Arrangements were made with Charles GoldStein for the re- modelling of the second floor ot the Goldstein Building in accord ance with the needs of the Clinic, and the H. B. Foss Company was retained to draft the plans and supervise construction.
 Contract for the construction was let to the Warrack Construction Company in April of this year and work comm enced immediately Upon MT. Warrack's return from Mexico shortly after work had started, he pronounced the plans for the new clinic as nearly ideal, in view of inspections he had made of like institutions in the South.
 Another Doctor Interested
 Dr. William T. Blanton became member of the clinic group early in April, and at that time slight changes were made in the plans to accommodate him, but without af- fecting their excellence. Construc- ton was completed on August and the clinic was ready for occupancy Immediately furnishings were put in place and by August all equip ment was installed and the doctors were moved into their new loca- tion, ready to commence practice as one group. From the first, the Clinic has met with public favor and already many patients have taken advantage of the new health center
 Dr. R. H. Williams, though not a member of the Clinic group, was leased space in the new institution shortly after it was commenced, in order to round out the services available to patients by incorporat- ing dentistry along with the other branches of medical practice
 Many Advantages
 The advantages of the clinic type of medical institution are many Outstanding among them are: ex- pensive equipment necessary to the most efficient treatment of ail- ments made available to doctors not connected with great metropoli- tan hospitals. Such equipment is far too costly to be maintained by individual doctors.
 Also, such an institution makes ! it possible for each member physi- elan and surgeon to conduct his private practice and in addition al- low each to specialize in some field of medicine for which he feels himself best fitted to the end that all branches of medical practice will l be represented in the group by out

COIdstein Makes Many Changes in
 Office Building
Entrance, Lobby and Third Floor Redesigned and
 Up-Dated

Shortly after Charles Goldstein retained the H. B. Floss Company to prepare plans and specifications for the new clinic quarters. it was decided to extend the remodeling work to include the entrance to the building, lob5y and also third floor offices These additions were made to the plans and contracts let to complete all the work simul- taneously.
 As a result, the Goldstein Build- ing now has the most attractive entrance portal and lobby of any Juneau business block. With its new small glass enclosed business office at one side of the entrance, new swinging doors leading into the Celotex finished lobby, with elevator entrance facing the doorway, the redesigned entrance presents an inviting appearance.
 Several large office suites have been constructed on the third floor of the building. All are well lighted and many have an excellent view of the harbor. They are served by elevator and stairways. Finished in Celotex in keeping with the other alterations, the offices are equipped with washstands, and are so ar ranged that each presents a most

Establishment of Clinic WiI PrOue of Benefit to
 Public; Purpose Outlined

Fulfillment of an old dream of Dr. w. w. Council and of many other Alaskan physicians is embodied in the newly completed Juneau Medi- cal and Surgical Clinic. Ever since pr. Council first came to Juneau he has believed that such a clinic is the most needed forward step in the progress of medicine in the Terri tory. At several different times dur ing the last fifteen years, attempts have been made by different groups of Juneau physicians, with Dr. Council prominent in the promo tion each time Though former tries were unsuccessful. ythevss laid the groundwork that has finally led to the establishment of the new Clinic,
 Clinics, where several doctors combine their abilities toward mak- ing an all-around medical estab- lishment accessible to more equip ment than it is possible for one to maintain alone, are the modern trend in the practice of medicine and are steadily increasing in favor in the United States and Europe
 Clinic Formulated
 First consideration of the Clinic as it is now realized was effected in March of this year, when Dr. Council returned from his vacation in the States. At that time he con- ferred with pr. c. c. Carter and

x-RAY MACHINE AT NEW CLINIC
 IS EVERY LATEST
Special Attention and Con- struction Given to
 Modern Room

Incorporated in the new Juneau Medical and Surgical Clinic is the latest type of x-ray machine, the greatest of all aids to modern sci- ence in the diagnosis of internal afflictions.
 Great care was taken in planning the Clinic and in purchasing the equipment for the X-ray room 10 assure the very finest complete plant that may be attained. In building the X-ray room, care was taken that it be completely insu- lated from the remainder of the Clinic. Lead lining was placed in all walls, the ceiling, the floor. The interior of the laboratory is painted with "Ruby-Light' preparation, a special mixture of pigments that accord with the mira red Roentgen rays to produce their most efficient application.
 The K-ray apparatus itself, il- lustrated in this section, is the pro- duct of the Standard x-Ray Cor poration, one of the two major and pioneer producers of that type of equipment, and is one of the finest of their latest models; fully shock proof, equipped with Microscopic screen and fully shielded tube and rated at 100 milli-amperes.
 Either pictures or instant visual is possible with the equip ment.

DR. WHITEHEAD
 QUALIFIED FOR
 CLINIC DUTIES
Has Practiced in Respons- ible Positions Since
 Graduation

Dr. w. M. Whitehead, perhaps the most active member of the Juneau Medical and Surgical Clinic in get ting the project under way, realized the need for such an institution here soon after his arrival in Ju- neau, August IA, of last year. After having practiced here about half a year Dr. Whitehead, together with pr. c. O. Carter made the first move toward the clinics establish ment.
 Dr. Whitehead is a graduate of the University of Virginia, the school that has perhaps given Alaska more of it's doctors than any other. He spent the fourth year of his in terneship at the University of Vir- ginia Hospital at Charlottesville. He was one year at the Virg glnia- Mason Hospital in Seattle, was ship sur geon for the American Mail Line during five voyages to the Orient, conducted a private practice in &c., attle for ten months and practiced medicine in Wrangell, Alaska, from 1884 until coming to Juneau last year. Dr. Whitehead's wife is the former Dorothy Johnson of Wran- gell. They were married in Septem- Der, 1884
 When Dr. Whitehead came to Juneau, he took over the practice of the late Dr. McAuliffe and occu- pied Dr. McAuliffe's suite in the Shattuck Building.

standing ability It is not the pur- pose of the clinic that patients shall be segregated and sent to be treated only by that doctor who specializes in his peculiar ailment, but rather, that each patient may be treated by the doctor of his choice with the specialist at all times convenient for consultation. Not only is the patient free to se- lect the doctor he prefers, but he is also free to change to any other of the doctors at any time he may desire.
 It is also expected that the Clinic arrangement will allow each of the doctors to have his patients well taken care of and still give him time each year to go to the States for additional study in new develop ments of medical practice, and for research.
