POPPY DAY NEXT
 SATURDAY.; HIGH
 GOAL AIMED FOR

Faith in America with those who have died in the nations service will be pledged anew on Poppy Day, May 29, Mrs. A. w. Stewart, Amer ican Legion Auxiliary Poppy Chair man, said today as the Auxiliary continued preparations for its an- nual distribution of memorial pop pies.
 "The wearing of the poppy is personal pledge that we will not break faith with those who died but will carry on to the achieve ment of the things for which they gave their lives" said Mrs. Stewart.
 Millions of Americans will wear the poppy this year as a tribute to the dead of both World Wars and a mark of their determination to conclude this war with complete victory. The flower is the symbol of life given in service for America The wearer makes an unspoken pledge to the nations heroic dead that he will live as they died, serv- ing America"
 Topples will be offered to every one in Juneau by the women of the Auxiliary on Poppy Day. No price will be asked for the flowers, the pennies of children being just as welcome as the dollars of the wealthy. A poppy over every heart is the goal.
 Contributions given to the Auxil- iary's volunteer poppy workers will go in their entirety to the rehabil- itation and child welfare funds of The American Legion and Auxil- iary, where they will help support the Legion's and Auxiliary's efforts for the disabled fighting men of both wars, and for the children of the dead and disabled ~Vf
 A total of PIT popy wreaths made by Auxiliary members and volun- teer women, have been distributed to the business houses and organ izations of Juneau, to be displayed over Memorial Day in memory of those who have given their lives in the war of 25 years ago, and in the present conflict

And can you prove it by photo graph? We mean, can you prove

 about to have the opportunity to get some reflected glory from that far-off charm. The Club is con- ducting a Beauty Contest, at long range. beginning on Saturday, May 2g. and closing on June 19. First, second and third place prizes will be awarded. So hurry up, fellows, bring in HER picture, together with separate memo of her name and address and your name and outfit. Photographs may be either snaps or studio portraits. The only girls ineligible are the winners of the contest held in February. You will be interested to learn that the first place winner of that compe- tition recently came to Juneau and married the Serviceman enter ing her picture May the man back ing the June champion prove to possess judgment at flawless and luck as conspicuous as hisl
 Another competition being spon- sored by the Club is the Photogra- phic Contest which will run through June. Prizes will be awarded for excellence of pictures taken by Servicemen or by GSO girls. The Mems Council has announced the rules for the contest, as follows:
 CD Any contestant may enter any number of pictures, but no coll testant may win more than one prize. @ Pictures must be taken by the man or girl personally. (3) There will be several classes of photography, to be judged separ- ately, the number to be announced shortly (for example, landscapes, still-life, portraits, etc. All the pictures will be placed on display in the Clubhouse.
 Fishing tackle, both for stream and salmon fishing, is now avail able at the Club house. It may be reserved in advance, by calling at the desk or by telephone. Perhaps it's only coincidence, but 1t was just a few hours after the Club bought the tackle that Washing ton news flash announced that the Department of the Interior expects the l943 catch of Alaskan fish to be the biggest in all history.
 Memorandum for Club Director Sid Cowgirl We understand that you are responsible for the name of that excellent new band, Cor don Johnson and his Alaskan Male mutes." How about sponsoring a contest to select a happier tag? omehow "malemutes" doesn't sound very musical. These boys are "huskies" sure enough; but we are afraid that if the title gets back to the States where people don't know much about Alaskan life, they may pronounce it with only two syllables we'd resent one of our favorIte bands being called The Male Mutes" Just to start the contest, we rush forward with the suggestion that they be called Gordon Johnson and his Northern Lights-o Love"
