MINE EXTENSION COURSE STARTING
 TOMORROW EVE
Five Week Session on Minerals 10 Be in Bar
 anof Sample Room

Everything is set for the opening class of the University of Alaska's mining extension course here, to be held tomorrow in the No. ? sample room in the basement of the Bar anof Hotel, it was announced to- day by R. F. Lyman, mining in- structor from the University, who arrived here by plane from Fair banks last Saturday.
 To accommodate those who can not attend the regular evening classes at 7:30 pm, morning ses- sions will be held at 10 o'clock, Lyman said. Both sections will cover the same material.
 Glasses will be held five times a week, Monday through Friday, for a period of five weeks. The first weeks work will consist of lectures on mineral occurrences and mining operations throughout the Terri tory. Also, the study of geology will be introduced with lectures on the processes of weathering and erosion.
 There will be no tuition for the course. However, for the laboratory work of identifying minerals, which starts during the second week of the course, it will be necessary for each student to buy manual and other equipment costing him to- tai of $40 Laboratory periods will be kept open for as long as the students wish to work, but lectures are limited to one hour.
 There are no attendance require ments, but to those who attend the classes over 75 percent of the time certificate will be awarded Those unable to attend classes regularly will find the work arranged so that they can follow the subject mat ter without difficulty.
 The instruction is of special value to those interested in seeking and evaluating mineral deposits. Be- sides it's practical use to the pros pector, the course covers field of science and industry of great in- terest to many AIaskans. The class is open to all adults.

GIRL, SAILOR. EXECUTIVE IN
 CAPITOL FILM
Complications of Amusing Triangle Told in "A Girl,
 A Guy and A Cob"

Should a sailor see more of the world through a porthole, or marry and settle down? That's the big question around which revolve the romantic comedy adventures of "A Girl, a Guy and a Cob featur- ing George Murphy, Lucille Ball and Edmond O'Brien in the title roles. The picture plays for the last times tonight at the Capitol Theatre.
 The matrimonial intentions of Murphy as the gob are handi- capped by the fact that he's broke, and all his schemes to raise enough money to marry on meet with up- rcarious disaster. Moreover, Miss Ball who is the fiancee in the case, is a secretary in O'Briens office and OBrien, a dignified young business executive, becomes interested in her and her some what unpredictable family.
 The ensuing complications, with the executive falling in love with the girl but nobly endeavoring to help along her wedding with the sailor, while the executives part ner tries to get the sailor out of the way to leave a clear field for his associate, make for general hilarity and highly entertaining picture
 Richard Wallace directed tn e offering, "A Girl, a Guy and Cob" which is Harold Lloyd's first production effort. The supporting cast includes Henry Travers, Franklin Pangborn, George Cleve- land, Kathleen Howard, Lloyd Cor rigan and Mady Correll

CRITICAL COAL SHORTAGE AT ANCHOR ACE.
Civilian Population al De- fense City Unable
 to Get Fuel

With fuel needs more acute every day, Anchorage citizens are suffer- ing serious coal shortage, it was reported here today by B. D. Stew art, Territorial Commissioner of Mines. 2
 The shortage is not due to any lack of coal deposits in the nearby Matanuska field, Stewart pointed out. It is due, he said, to the fact that the population at Anchorage has increased more rapidly than developments at the mines could be completed and new equipment put in operation to handle the heavy demand for the fuel
 Operators are trying hard to get little more coal out of the two small mines, the Premier and the Buffalo, in the Moose Creek section, Stewart said. Anchorage citizens, he reported, are driving to the Premier mine with gunny sacks to pick over coal on the mine dump. Loggers are busy building road through to the mines, doing the job free in return for coal for their families.
 Some relief, Stewart declared, may come from the Healy River Coal Company at Suntrana, 150 miles south of Fairbanks, which is under taking to supply Anchorage with nut coal, shipped there on the Alaska Railway. Another coal development, the Costello Creek Mine of w. E. Dunkle at Broad Pass, is now furn- ishing coal for the railways, Stewart announced.
 Ccal from the Eska mine is all being used by the railway, Stewart pointed out, and the production Of the Evan Jones Coal Company is being used for the army post at Fort Richardson. The Evan Jones mine at Jonesville has been oper- ating on time extension basis since october 19 with H. L. Fielder, An chorage representative of the Ter ritorial Department of Mines, keep ing close check on the observation of safety orders, Stewart said. The Jonesville mine was closed on Octo- Der r under Stewards order for failure to comply with safety regu- lations.
