PLANS DANCE. '
LATE IN MAY

| The Emblem Club held it's regular
May business meeting last might
in the Elks Hall with one of the
largest group Of members in az
tendance since the Club was inSti-
tuted AS expected, Mrs. Kay Hahn
who is leaving Alaska permanently
within a short time, resigned her
position as Recording Secretary.4To
succeed her, tile Club members
nominated and elected Mrs KRth-
ryn Young. Mrs. Young is antici-
pating cooperation from all mem
bers in the performance of her new
especially as she was not at
last nights meeting to accept or
reject the nomination. Being one
of Juneau's newest organizations,
all of the officers are finding their
duties more complicated than sim
liar positions in older groups. After
the Forthcoming three months va
cation, however the Club and 'ts
officers hope to resume activities
with a bang" next September.
The usual monthly business OF
the Club was disposed of with dis
patch last night SO that those pre-
sent could discuss the plans for the
Clubs final spring social. 1t was
decided that the Club should spon-
sor a dance and entertainment for
all members of the Elks Lodge,
Elks'' ladies, Emblem Club mem
bers, and the latters escorts the
first available Saturday in May. De-
tails of the affair were eventually
left in the capable hands of CO.
chairmen Mesdames Louise Blan-
ton and Louise Shattuck They are
to make all preliminary arrange
ments for this party and will report
back to Club members on the regu-
lar meeting night of May l6
The second meeting in any month
in May on the 16th-the Club has
set aside for a social. Tuesday is
rather difficult night on which to
plan large party SO this month
this meeting night is being used to
make the final arrangements for
the May affair. At that time the
co-chairmen will present a report
of their tentative arrangements, and
the President will appoint the COM
mittees necessary to carry them out.
Needless to say all Emblem CLUB
members should be at the May 16
meeting to do their part in making
the Clubs celebration an eventual
one. 4fiasg
During the course of last nights
meeting, the quilt with which the
Clubs sewing group hopes to raise

BROTHER, SISTER.
 SUCCUMB IN FIRE.
Ormsby Children of TOr- ringtOn Perish at Home;
 Mother at Hospital

Torrington, March l6-Edward Ormsby, 3, and his sister, Lucille, 6, children of an Army corporal stationed in England, died in fire which destroyed their home at 42 Farnham Court Wednesday night.
 The three other Ormsbyb children escaped, uninjured, but their moth- CT, Mrs. William Ormsby was taken to Charlotte Hungerford Hospital for treatment of severe burns on the arms and body.
 The first floor occupants of the house, Mir. and Mrs. Clayton Miller, were not injured.
 The Ormsby home is in a three story wooden building set back from Main street. Officer Michael Con- sidine, doing patrol dudty, was at tracted to the scene by the screams of fire, fire" from the mother and three of her children. He saw the children standing in a window on the second floor anc ordered them to go to a nearby door and get out of the house immediately.
 Mrs. OrmSby, 32, attempted to re- enter the burning building to rescue Edward and Lucille, who were asleep in a bedroom on the third floor, but was restrained by police. The brother and sister were later found by firemen, huddled together under their bed, few feet from a window.
 Medical Examiner H. B. Hanchett said death was caused by suffoca- tion and burns.
 Fire Chief Edward F. Goodman said the fire started from an oil stove which the children were re- ported to have said overturned in the kitchen. He said the fire spread rapidly through the upper part of the building and was well underway by the time firemen arrived.
 Besides their parents, the two children leave three brothers, Will liam, Jr, Charles and Raymond, and their paternal grandmother, Mrs. Mary OrmSby.

 The commission stated that Di- rector Theodore F. Matson of the Traffic Research Bureau believes that, if the seminar develops the expected technical service to com munity engineers, similar programs probably will be proposed by the Institute of Traffic Engineers, a na- tional association, to serve other states as this round-table program is expected to serve Connecticut.
 Enroll Engineers
 Justice Arthur F. Els, chairman of the Safety Commission, said yes terday that representatives of pub lie works departments are traffic engineers from Hartford, New Ha- ven. Bridgeport, Waterbury, Nor walk, New London, Stratford, Mill ford, Danbury, Greenwich, Meriden, Westport, Stamford, Ansonia, Fair field West Hartford and East Hart ford have been enrolled officially in the course, which will be super vised by Theodore F. Matson, direc- tor of the Traffic Research Bureau.
 Judsge Els issued the following statement in conliection with the Traffic Engineering Seminar, exact dates for which are to be announc- ed by Yale University authorities:
 We estimate that between 20 and 9 city officials will comprise the seminar, which will include on its staff of lecturers some of the ablest minds in the country as regards the ScieEce of traffic engineering.
 "The men who will attend are engaged ill directing construction of streets. development of traffic ways, etc. in their respective com munities and will draw the blue prints for postwar traffic condition in the r Connecticut communities they represent.
 Present-Day Problems
 While present day problems re- quiring engineering solution will not be overlooked, the main emphasis of the seminar will be placed on planning community action in post war days. MT. Matson describes the scope of the course as Postwar plus Prewar' and that seems all inclusive.
 "All students of traffic conditions realize the impact that postwar de velopments will have on public transit. Traffic authorities are con- cerned with providing uninterrupted flow conditions for vehicles at as rapid a pace as public safety per- mits, developing attractive and con- venient parking facilities, planning through roads or 'boulevards' in cities large enough and ensuring to the maximum degree accident proof streets for both operator and pedestrian.
 We appreciate that all of this program cannot be covered in one week, but we are hopeful that MT. Matson and his aides will be able
