SITKA-JUNEAU BASEBALL

Sitka baseball fans, as well as the Juneau diamond experts are going to find out this weekend whether the Sitka baseball All Star outfit is as good as we say it is.
 In extending a challenge to a service mems All-Star club at Jun eau, Sitka's Rotary Club, which is sponsoring the local team, stated that our team "is undefeatable."
 The Sitka team probably will arrive in Juneau Saturday night and will attempt to make the boast good Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock.
 Not cnly will the trip give the Sitka boys chance to travel, even though the trip is short, but all proceeds from the game will go to fund for visiting service men.

 But then that may have some thing to do with the players. The Juneau Rotary Club, however, as- sures us that our boys will have plenty of competition. Sunday will tell.

In keeping with its policy to bring
to local audiences the biggest and
best in stage show entertainment
the LoeW Poll theater will present
this week the World Premiere of
Chico Marx and his Ravellies in
person, on Thursday and Friday on
the stage Of the Poll theater for 3
performances daily No longer flank
ed by Groucho and Harpo, Chico
Marx, the piano playing Ravelli OF
the famous Marx Brothers, cast in
a new role as one of the country's
famous orchestra leaders, begins his
very first in person appearance this
week, and Waterburians are the
first to be afforded the opportunity
OF witnessing this smash show
Many times you have seen Chico
Marx on the screen and in every
single Marx Brothers picture, he has
demonstrated his unique piano
technique, now you can actually see
him in person with his own orches-
ira and featuring his own rib tick
ling, caricature technique at the
ivorys.
With this headliner are many
outstanding personalities of the en-
tertainment World-such as the inter-
nationally famous Samuel Brothers
and Co., comedian Ziggy Lane,
songstress Sue Perkins OF the high
'C's, and many others.
Don't miss this grand show Tor 1t
is truly one Of the biggest in person

thriller Captain of the Clouds
comes to that theater with James
Cagney in the leading role.
Cagney is said to appear in his
greatest role to date. In career
which has been studded with bril-
liant performances, his role as the
daredevil flyer in the new techni-
color picture energies as the grand
est of them all.
Captains of the Clouds" is story
Of the Royal Canadian Air Force,
and it is story of glory a story Of
thousands of men who hourly risk
their lives that democracy may sur
vive. Magnificently directed and
photographed, superbly acted and
brilliantly written, the new picture is
one of the most vital and enthralling
entertainments the screen has pro-
vided in many years.
A large and able cast supports
Cagney in the film. There Is Dennis
Morgan, handsome and virile young
leading man, who more than fulfills
the prophecies made for his success
after his fine performance in kitty
Foyle'. Brenda Marshall, whose
flashing brunette beauty is fully re-
vealed for the first time by the
technicolor cameras is completely be-
lievable as a flirtatious and viXenish
French girl who plays havoc with
the hearts of the fighting pilots.
Alan Hale, George Tobias and Regi-
maid Gardiner, as an Irish, Canadian
and English flyer, respectively each
turn in memorable performances
Frances Langford and Johnny
Downs in Cali American Co-Ed' is
the second big hit of the program.

Seeing several hundred uni
formed women N one room, the
other day, r-..de me think about
shoulders. ~ley're a pretty import
ant aspeco of beauty, whether uni
formed, or in everyday dress, or
barred for evening And the uniform
points up the fact that their con-
tour is just as important as their
color. You may have beautifully
white skin and shoulders as well
AS face, but if there are hollows
under or below your collar bone
or rolls of weight below the neck,
dreaming alone won't make you
lovely.
Swimming Is one of the best
answers to hollow shoulders. Why
not try to get in a weekly dip If
you need to develop the shoulder
muscles? If that's too inconvenient,
you can simulate the breast stroke
in arm exercises. Hold the arms
forward with palms facing each
other, and stretch them wide apart
Slowly. Repeat ten times and in
crease your exercise period grad
ually. This seems to eliminate hol-
lows rather quickly.
And do try to stand up straight
The shoulders should not be forced
backward nor slumped forward. 1t
may help, also, TO remember that
the muscles in the sides Of your
neck are there to support your
head. Get into the habit of de-
pending on them, instead of the
upper part of the backbone, to
keep your head high.
OF course, every woman wants
blemish-free, smooth skin on her
shoulders too, and it can be
achieved with surprisingly little
trouble. Scrubbing them daily with
a long-handled bath brush and
applying body or hand lotion sew
eral times week will Danish
rough areas and whiten the skin.
And speaking of color-there are
few things so wrong as the form

shoulders below a creamy or golden
throat. So when you dress remem-
Der to use on your shoulders and
back the same foundation and
powder you use on your face and
neck.

What do you mean by the word

Physicians and health authorities
who are honest about it today group

Among these diseases are pneu-

You never know and neither does

Answer-Winter sunlight in the
north contains little ultraviolet. A
window made of ordinary cellophane
held in place between two layers Of
ordinary chicken wire permits most
of the ultraviolet to pass, withstands
weather for fairly long time, is
cheaply renewable. Every one living
in the north needs some supplement
tai vitamin D and perhaps some
vitamin B complex daily through
