JUNEAU HIGH
BOYS in WIN
OVER ALUMNI

Juneau High Schools Crimson
Bears trounced the Alumni last
night by score of 80 to 30 in the
second of three game series. Agile
footwork and deceptive passing, as
well as the fine teamwork display
ed, proved too much for the vet
erans Thibodeau and Kearny
scored four field goals apiece. Pow
ers was the spark for the Alumni,
scoring seven points, after warming
up in the preliminary game. Reischl
came through with five field goals
and made the most of two free
throws. 1t was close game, hard
fought, tight in places, with score
changing frequently, and rough in
spots
In the first game of the double
header, the Bankers defeated the
Signacs, chalking up 30 points to
the latter's 81 Lundeberg and Pow
ers led the scoring for the Bankers,
and Vanderhock of the Signacs
scored nine of the points Cleaned

COMING SUNDAY,
CAPITOL SCREEN

Following up their last years hit
with another riotous piece of film
fare, the rival radio teams of Fibber
MCGEE and Molly and Edgar Ber-
gen and Charlie Mccarthy add to
the gaiety of nations with their
work in Here We Go Again" hail
ed as one of the seasons funniest
offerings. The picture begins to-
morrow at the Capitol Theatre.
AS before, the famous funsters all
play themselves in the picture,
which has most of its fast and hill
arious action laid in the neighbor-
hood of a swank mountain resort
somewhere in the West. Fibber and
Molly plan a big celebration of
their twentieth wedding anniver-
sary, but all their Wistful Vista
friends decline the invitations and
go to the exclusive Silvertip Lodge
instead
Chagrined, the McGees go there
also, although they know they can't
afford it, and Fibber is forced into
taking the bridal suite. He discov-
erS that Bergen, accompanied by
Charlie and with Mortimer Snerd
as guide, is staying at a camp
nearby, searching for a rare Am
erican moth, and carrying on ro-
nance with Jean, the sister of
Fibber's friendly enemy Glider
sleeve.
Ginny Simms shares romantic
/ honorS with Bergen in the picture,
and Gale Gordon plays the part of
Cadwalader, with Harold Peary
again portraying Gildersleeve, and
Ray Noble and his orchestra fur
nishing the musical setting.
A hectic sequence in which Ber-
gen. dressed as an Indian princess
and with Charlie as her papoose,
seeks special kind of tree on an
Indian reservation, and Charles
exploits with band of Girl Scouts
form two hilarious features of the
picture.

Three cases of infantile paralysis
have been reported at Palmer, ac-
cording to word received here, and

antine by both the Territory De-
partment of Health and the Mill

There is no knowledge yet as to
the source of the cases, although
the appearance CT the disease has
been looked for by health authorities
in the Territory The State Of Wash
ington has had more cases this year
than in many previous years and
this has made the Territorial Health
authorities more alert.
While little is even yet known
about the spread of infantile par
alysis, Dr. George Hays, Executive
Officer of the Territorial Depart
ment of Health, states that every
accepted method of control is being
put into effect at Palmer and health
authorities and physicians through

Five men went for her in big
way yet they all had reasons
for wanting her out of the way.
That is the background of the
years most exciting mystery drama,
goth Century Foxs Il Wake Up

goth Century Theatre
Hollywoods three most thrilling
personalities, Betty Cradle, Victor
Mature and Carole Lands, have
the leading roles in this story of the
girl who was taken out of the hash
house and made the darling of
cafe society.
Carole, despite her sister Bettys
protests, agrees to let herself be
glamorized by Mature. a promoter,
Alan Mowbray, a well-known actor,
and Allyn Joslyn, leading column
mist. After she signs Hollywood
contract without her hackers con-
sent, she is found murdered
Laird Cregar, the detective placed
in charge of the crime. seems more
interested in putting the finger on
Mature than finding the real muir
derer, especially since most Of the
clues point to him. The mystery
is deepened even more when Betty
falls in love with Vic and holds out
evidence which makes him look
even more guilty

MAY BE HUGE
OIL RESERVES
IN TERRITORY

Indications of a huge oil reserve
in 10000 square mile area OF
Alaskas Arctic slope have been I'M
covered by survey party of the
U. S. Bureau of Mines, Norman
Ebbley, Jr., engineer for the Blu
reau in Alaska told members of the
Juneau Chamber of Commerce to-
day.
Ebbley headed the expedition
which spent four weeks in the area
early last fall under the direction
of District Engineer Robert S. San
ford. He said that the party found
in addition to the two known seep-
ages, six more areas with excel
lent seepage conditions.
While there is possibility that
the new seepages may be only REM
nants of once large reserves, Eb-
bley said, the indications that huge
reserves are there are excellent.
Furthermore, he pointed out, the
terrain of this area and that of the
region south to Fairbanks is such
that pipelines from the oil lands
to Fairbanks are entirely feasible
from the engineering point of view
and the weather extremes are less
severe than at Fairbanks, itself
with temperatures rarely ranging as
low as SO or 10 degrees below zero
Ebbley pointed out that the oil
situation in the United States pro-
per is now in critical stage, not
necessarily due to the drain on oil
reserves by the war, but to tie fact
that annual production even fol-
normal years is now reaching the
point to where it soon will be less
than the normal annual consump-
ton.
Pipelines laid in to open the I'M
tapped reserves of the Arctic slope
Ebbley pointed out, would be much
shorter than the lines being used
for the development of the Canol
project in northern Canada, 600
miles of lines being enough in most
cases. A total of 1000 miles of line
is used for the Canol project,
The area in which the seepages
have been found in Alaska is con-
tanned in the Naval Reserve es-
tablished in 1923 by President Hard
ing.
Ebbley said that at present less
than S percent of the gold mines
in Alaska are functioning. But new
operations for the mining OF
chrome, mercury, tungsten and tin
the strategic minerals-have beer
started after preliminary explora-
ton by the U. S. Geological Survey
and the U, S. Bureau of Mines.
