SUNDAYS -AT-FIyE

Not tea for two,' but coffee for zoo or more" is the slogan for next Sunday afternoon in the USO lobby The occasion will be the first of the Clubs Sundays-at-Five. u, ] The High School members of the GSO will act as hostesses for the affair that afternoon Pat Shaffer, one of that group, will be at the piano. The other girls will serve coffee and cookies. All of them will serve, also to prove the fact that Juneau is second to no other community in the fascination and charm of it's girls-though we doubt that any Serviceman here, unless hes just stepped off boat, needs any such proof at this late date Note here in Juneau the letters "GSO,' we suppose you know, stand fer "Gee,-Sure OrnamentalHD
 Every Sunday hereafter, from five o'clock to seven coffee and music may be enjoyed in the lobby, while one or another of the special groups of the GSO are on hand to be en- 1oyed even more.

SUCCESSFUL DEBUT

USO is proud to have sponsored on Saturday night the first dance at which the All Girls Orchestra furnished the music. Engaged by the Club in an experimental mood and having had only two reflear- sals, this brand-new bands playing proved of excellent calibre.
 The four members of the outfit are Anita Garnick, violinist; Errna Johnson, on the saxophone; Lillian Uggen, at the piano; and Lois Standafer, playing the drums. Hence it hardly need be pointed out that this band not only is well worth hearing but also is very good to lock at., A long time ago it was said: Music hath charms, etc. etc-and now we add: and so has this orchestra
 Before Saturday we wondered whether any four girls could fur nish enough volume of music for q room as big as Union Hall. It was pleasant surprise to find that cur concern was entirely groundless. The dance, it seems generally to have been agreed, was distinct success-a fact attributable in no small measure to the excellence of the music.

Of Bribery Attempt in
Jail Death Of Mexican

BY the Associated Press.
ST. LOUIS, May 19.-Julius Klein,
veteran reporter for the st. Louis
Star Times, was indicted yesterday
on charges of attempting to bribe
two witnesses in the mysterious
death Of Edward Melendes, an OBJ
scure Mexican waiter.
In a front-page editorial, the
Star-Times declared the charges
were an attempt to muzzle "the
mouth Of the free press" and to
interfere with the newspapers rights
to ascertain the facts. Mr.. Klein
himself, in q signed story, branded
the accusations as utterly false"
Six Indictments Returned.
The Circuit Court grand jury re-
turned six indictments against the
reporter. He was alleged to have
offered bribes to two jail inmates.
Warren P. Gresham and James p.
Carleton, If they would change their
story about the circumstances OF
Melendes' death in police station
cell last July.
Gresham and Carleton had testi-
fled before a grand jury which in
dicted Andrew Brinkley, a former
fellow prisoner, on charge OF sec
ond-degree murder. Brinkley was
alleged to have beaten Melendes
fatally in a fight in the police cell
while both were being held as rob-
berry suspects.
Mr.. Klein had been assigned by
his newspaper to investigate reports
that Gresham and Carleton wanted
to retract their statements. He
visited them In jail, where they were
being held on minor charges, and in
a subsequent story said they had
told him they could exonerate
Brinkley.
Accuser Becomes Accused.
Brinkley was an accuser who be-
came the accused in the strange
case.
He had been the principal witness
against three detectives, claiming
they had beaten Melendes in q
"third-degree" questioning. The Of
ficers were indicted on charges of
manslaughter. but the indictment
later was quashed.
The Mexican government, through
it's consular officials and the Amer
lean State Department, and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation
have taken an interest in the case.
