MINISTER'S SPEAK AT ROTARY MEET;
 CUB SCOUTS, TOO
Rotarians Will Invite Army Basketball and Rifle
 Teams 10 Compete

Today was ministers day at the Juneau Rotary Club, with three ministers who recently arrived at Alaska's Capital City addressing the members.
 First speaker was Rev Willis Booth. new pastor at the Northern Light Presbyterian Church, who tcld the Rotarians he had been a Rotary member in Kentucky before coming to Sitka more than year ago. He said he heard of the Jun- eau Rotary club before leaving there to come north.
 The other ministers who spoke were Rev. G. H. Hillerman, new pastor of the Resurrection Lutheran Church, and Rev w. H. Matthews, ninister of the Methodist Church.
 A feature of the meeting was the appearance of Cortis Wingerton and Fred Sorri, Cubmaster and assistant, respectively, of the new Cub Scout Packs being organized by Rotarians in Juneau. With them were three of the Juneau Cubs, Robert Howell, Robert McCully and Billy Johnson, who presented skit in which they explained the pur- poses of Cub Scouts and regretted the fact that the Juneau Packs do not possess an American flag. This predicament was immediately rem edied by Highway Patrolman Dan Ralston, who presented flag to the boys in behalf of the Juneau Rotarians.
 It was suggested by Brownie the Barber through Charles Beale, that the club invite basketball teams and rifle teams from Chilkoot Barracks to come to Juneau next spring to compete in annual tournaments here.

BERLIN, Nov. Is. = Authorized German sources today said Ger many is carefully considering all angles, especially those of a legal nature,' relative to the seizure by the United States of the German freighter Odenwald, which was captured sailing under American colorS.

Men 10 Be Summoned in Second Quota Be With-

Names of all Selective Service 'registrants to be summoned to the colors under Juneau's second quota call may not be announced until December l, due to tardiness oi preliminary physical examination reports, the Juneau local board said today.
 All the men apparently eligibls for military duty have been or dered by mail to report to physi- clans for examination but some have not done so and reports of others have not been forwarded from their present addresses.
 The Juneau local board will meet in it's headquarters in the Kraft Building at 730 o'clock tonight to continue classification of regis trants. Some registrants have not yet returned their questionnaires.
 Even if all the remaining regis trants should pass their prelimin- ary examinations and then the final examinations at Chilkoot Bar racks, the likelihood that Juneau will fall short of filling the sec ond quota remained a strong pro- bability today. Failure of many first quota registrants to pass ex- animation has resulted in the boards being forced to fill the vacancies with men who ordinarily
 would not have been called unti
