SAVE TIN FOIL, OTHER THINGS,
 BEING URGED
Supt. A. B. Phillips Sends Out Requests to Par
 ents and Others

! In the mail now is a simple re- quest from Superintendent A. B Phillips, of the Juneau City Schools for parents and others to save tin foil and many other articles for the Seattle Orthopedic Hospital planning for the campaign to be waged next April.
 The complete request, it. letter form, is as follows:
 This is letter from the Super intendent of Juneau Public School but let me assure you that Il haS nothing to do with school matter It has something to do With you--l hope. And it costs you nothing It is about children, and l know you are interested.
 You have probably saved tin foil that comes around your cigarette packages, rolls of film for youl camera, packages of tea or spices some candies and confections, etc. and children have gathered it ur once a year for the Seattle Ortho- pedic Hospital. That hospital is doing a wonderful work with little boys and girls crippled bodies Juneau has sent many children there for treatment and some are still there. And all Alaska has rsed the services of the Seattle Or thopedic Hospital for years. All Alaskans are, or should be deeply appreciative of the work they have done and are doing for Alaskan children.
 No Money Donation We are asked to help maintain this hospital but not by money donations. Merely to save certain waste material ordinarily thrown away. We endorse most heartily the various drives in Juneau Red Cross, Bundles for Britain, Iron Lung, Salvation Army, the fund for the boys at Haines, etc., etc. But this drive is not for money. You have often saved tin foil, but did you know that they can use other material, also? Continue to save your tin foil as in the past, but also start saving tooth paste tubes, shaving cream tubes, anchovy paste ! tubes, and all sorts of similar tubes.

NEW TRIANGLE
 BRINGSLAUGHS,
 CAPITOL SCREEN
A Girl, a Guy and a Cob Brings Lucille Ball, 6.
 Murphy, E. 0'Brien

! A new type of romantic triangle is the basis of A Girl, a Guy and Cob" Harold Lloyd's new comedy production featuring George Mur- phy, Lucille Ball and Edmond O'Brien, opening tomorrow at the Capitol Theatre.
 The corners of the triangle are composed of a pretty secretary en- gagged to a sailor; the sailor him. self, who has left the Navy and intends to marry and settle down as soon as he makes a stake; and the secretarys boss, a dignified young socialite executive who tries to help the marriage along and winds up by falling in love with the girl him. self.
 How the trio work out their odd | ly tangled destinies from one hilari- ous situation to another makes up the plot of this engaging film, which is said to be one of the fun niest offerings of the season. The sailors money-making plans, which always go wrong, and the execu- tive's encounters with the heroine's exceedingly eccentric family pro- vide many of the laughs.
 The picture marks Lloyd's initial efforts as a producer after his many years as comedy star, and it is hailed as carrying on the Lloyd tradition in uproarious fash ion.
 In addition to the three princi- pals, the cast includes Henry Trav- CTS. Franklin Pangborn, George Cleveland, Kathleen Howard, Mady Correl, Lloyd Corrigan, Frank Me- Glynn and other noted players. Richard Wallace directed the pro- auction for RKO Radio
