SUNDAY AT DUCK CREEK

Unless you actually read it in
print, of course you'd be sure it
wasn't SO. Never before has this
column urged members of the ESQ
to stay away from the clubhouse
BUT seeing is believing, it's said.
Here we are saying to you: Girls,
don't spend late Sunday afternoon
or evening at the USO. If you do.
you will miss a treat.
The treat will be awaiting the
girls at Duck Greek in the form of
a party being given by the service
men of that post of all ESQ MEM
bers and the other young ladies of
Juneau and Douglas 1t will con-
sist, we understand, of an open
house in the afternoon featured
by some variety numbers, oppor-
tunities to play ping pong and pool,
trips to the glacier, inspection of
the camp, etc. followed by supper
and an evening of dancing and
other entertainment. The invita-
tons are said to be in the mail now.
They give all the details, including
the several times of the departure
Of CT transportation from the USO.
1t sounds as though it would add
up to FTRST-FATE PARTY. We
know for sure that the men of the
post have been putting a lot of time
and energy into getting it up. So
you can hardly wonder at our tell
ing the girls not to miss it.

BOB AND DICK

Over the past year this column
has had occasion to mention the
servicemens orchestra frequently
and to mention it gratefully, in
recognition of the excellence of its
music.
Today it is a pleasure, DIS we'll as
a happy duty as spokesman for a
lot of the men and girls personally
to comment upon USOs indebted
ness of a particular sort to two OF
those bandsmen We refer to Pfc
Robert Yetter and to Sgt Richard
E. Garrison, both of the state of
Washington.
Skillful musicians as Bob and
Dick are ca number of the fellows
believe that both can get jobs with
acknowledgement dance bands If
they care to stay in the profession
after the war; We cite them today
for something else their loyalty to
the USO in their constant main
tenance of the Juneau servicemen's
band for nearly year. A person
coming into the community casually
and hearing the outfit play but
once for example, last Saturday
night at the formal dance) would
have no idea that its personnel had
suffered many changes in recent
months - but such, unfortunately
has been the case. Not only has it
been necessary to secure such re-
placements as were available OH
short notice; it has happened also
that the use of some instruments
has had to be abandoned entirely.
You might suppose that this sort
of thing would be accepted stoically
by the fellows as inevitable and
that they'd go ahead without much
concern. But to make any such
supposition would be to ignore the
high pride of Bob and Dick in this
band for many months as it was
being built up, and to ignore also
their love and respect for good
music and their desire to have it
played really well or not at all The
fact is that again and again they
have been on the verge of disband-
ing in their concern over the music; ;
and in view of the confidence of
the other players in them their
decision to that effect would have
involved the entire orchestra. One
thing, and only one thing, has
prompted them to keep on-their
deep loyalty to the USO and the
girls and their many fellow -service-
men who were counting on them.
Because of the strength of that
loyalty 1t never once has been
necessary to cancel a dance: and a
vast amount of pleasure has been
given continuously to countless
people. From behind the scenes
personally we've observed close at
hand most of the stress and strain
to which Bob and Dick have been
subjected We've kept our fingers
crossed more than once; but every
single time the curtain has risen on
schedule and the show has gone on.
This is an appropriate time to
say once again to a pair OF fine
musicians, able members Of the
Army Signal Corps, and good men:
We previously have said thanks
gratefully for the music. Now, Bob
and Dick, thanks for your friend
ship!'

us in trying to solve that recently
acquired iigsaw puzzle in the form

in fact is pleasantly eXasperating

ling to people again the high re-
gard in which their new friends in
Juneau already hold a number of
the fellows who have been in this
town just a short while, making it
difficult to limit our selection TO
only two men today, although there
can be no doubt that these two do
rate special mention. Soldiers Ray
Whitney, from California, and Don
Burdick, from Utah.
The last of the weeks highlights
must be reported, regrettably, as a
let-down. Yes, that's the way we
felt-badly let down wnen on Mon

full in advertising the beauty and
glamour that are Juneau's. On the
cover below a reproduction of the

out and minces no words in de-
scribing the town as America S

And SO, aware that what makes Jul
neau really romantic is its numer-
GUS beautiful girls, we eagerly OPEN
ed the booklet to discover what? A
composite picture of the entire
ESQ? No. A series of snapshots
taken at the two most recent USO
formal dances? No. Nothing but
a lot of views of the Chilkat Range.

miscellaneous fish. Well and GOOD,

brilliance never reflected in Gas

ladies at our formal dance? But
on more sober second thought,
maybe you who prepared that
pamphlet showed sound judgment
after all. If you put the pictures
of all those gorgeous girls in a
single advertising booklet, people
on the outside would be sure it
wasn't true "There just couldn't
be that much charm in one small
city.f Here is our suggestion, you
boosters of your fine community:
Issue promptly supplement to
the booklet, calling it Delights OF

Recently the WPB repealed
the anti-zoot suit regulation, al
lowing once more the manufac-
ture of long coats with pleated
backs and wide pleated trousers.
This despite of the fact that
OPA had giving warning that
this would mean further de-
pletion of our already limited
textile supply and would in all
probability if adopted along with
other propositions now being
given consideration by WPB,
mean a further rise in prices.
Other proposals before the
WPB include cancellation of the
quality regulations on women's
hose, and elimination of style
restrictions on womens' dresses.
Cancellation of quality regu-
lations on hose will probably
mean that gyp varieties will ap-
pear in many stores before nor
NAL market competition returns
to give the customer some pro-
lection. Elimination of style re-
strictions on women'S dresses
will bring back lavish trends in
higher priced lines. Designers
have been busy figuring out new
tricks, tucks and pleats. Manu-
facturers of low priced dresses
will have to initiate.
Unless price control breaks
down under this pressure it will
mean a further sacrifice in ma
terial and workmanship in low
price lines. OPA officials are
not the only one who are show
ing alarm on that score as more
and more industries have Joined
in asking loosening controls un-
til normal conditions return.
The industries are doing it for
their own protection to avoid
chaotic conditions that sudden
relaxation of controls will bring
about.
The Bankhead price increases
originally slated for only 80 per-
cent of all cotton goods, have
now reached nearly 70 percent
with more to come. Manufactur-
ers got price rises of so percent
from OPA in 1941 and Is per-
cent in 1912. This before the
Bankhead amendment brought
them new windfall. Working
people would do we'll to consider
a long time before throwing the
old coat or old suit aside.

Merchonf Ship
JOB Seen For
Future

WASHINGTON, November Il
(LPA)-A big job is still aheac
of the American merchant ma.
rine, Owl reported here last
week.
Most of the merchant ships
and seamen will still be hard al
work from six months to three
years after the war with Japan
is over, according to the esti-
mates compiled from the U. S.
M r i m Commission, War
Shipping Administration, the
armed services, and the Com
merce Department.
East and west coast ports will
both be used for shipping to the
Pacific when the war in Europe
ends, the government agencies
agree.
Transport Soldiers Home
But the first job after We
day will be to begin transporta-
ton back home of the American
soldiers and other personnel now
overseas. On a worldwide scale,
more than six million troops
have been carried across the
oceans and supplied by Ameri-
can merchant ships.
During the war, American
merchant shipping has tripled
its pre-war volume of cargo
transport, tripled its deadweight
merchant ship tonnage, quad
rupled the number of ships.
Postwar plans for this great
fleet, according to the Maritime
Commissions recommendations,
should be these:
l. Ships 20 years old or more
should be scrapped.
2. Between 500 and 1000
Liberty ships should be laid up
"in sanctuary" as a potential
auxiliary shipping supply for the
armed forces in event of war.
3, Offer for sale or charter
to American shipping lines any
of the 1000 to $500 Liberty yes
sells that will be in commission
by 1945 over and above the
number laid up.
4. Offer for cash sale in this
country to members of the
United Nations any Liberty ves-
sells not laid up or disposed of
by other means.
