THE FUTURE

During the past few days we've been answering the question much mere frequently than at any time since just after V-J day, that ques- tion: How much longer will the Juneau USO continue to operate?"
 Perhaps the renewed concern of our friends had it's origin in the visit last week of representative from the National USO Headquart- CTS in New York who came up to re- view the requirements of the service men here and in Ketchikan and Prince Rupert. In any event, a lot of people seem alarmed lest the Club be planning to close almost immediately.
 The answer continues to be the same as before: So long as the need remains, the USO will remain
 Despite the marked reduction ir local personnel over the past severa months, but the Army and tht Coast Guard have formally request. cd the Club to continue its opera. tiofis for a minimum of three ol four months. The number of mer

Toy Center to Bring Christmas Joy Again
 This Year for Many

Tka adorable dolls on display in the Second Street window of the Alaska Light and Power Company Building are destined to gladden. the hearts of many little mothers at
 Christmas time, little girls who might otherwise be missed by Santa Claus.
 In an effort to see that each de- serving child in the community is not forgotten, members of various wcmens organizations are making preparations for conducting the Community Toy Center again this Christmas season. Working with the Welfare Board, through which all gifts are cleared, the Toy Gen. ter has brought happiness to many in the past four years since the pro- ject was begun.
 Mrs. John Mccormick is again serving as General Chairman, for the fifth year, and, other committee members are Mrs. Perry Ashcraft and Miss Isabel Hartung. Last year 218 children and adults were remembered through the combined efforts of the community and the Toy Center, and indications are that about the same number will be remembered this Christmas.
 The Toy Center will not operate from a particular building as it has in the past, but the Legion Dug out will be open for two days for sorting, wrapping and packing the gifts.
 The manual training class of the Juneau High School is also busy re- pairing and painting old toys, and making new ones. making their help in this project a much appreciated asset
 Any funds used for the Toy Gen. ter are voluntary donations, and are not solicited Most of the organiza- tionS in the community have had some part in making this a success in tke past

MEN ' AND PROMISES


 The genial Coast Guardsman was signing the Clubs Registry for Iowa. When the director asked if he had any particular hobby, the man add ed to his name and address: Base ball" Then he inserted after the name of his town: Near Van Meter, Iowa" He looked up, inquiringly: Does that mean anything to you?' The director smiled Tt surely does! It means Bob Feller's home town. You know Bob, of courSe?"
 It turned out that our visitor, Hu- bert c'ChuckD Smith, not only knew Bob Teller well but also had been his catcher during two of Bobs years in high school. To the director tas to just about every other American interested in base balD Bob Teller has been a hero ever since that never to-be-forgot- ten game when Cleveland, playing an exhibition against the St. Louis Cardinals Cthen represented by it's famed Gas House Gang, one of the best ball clubs of all time) call ed on an unknown 17-year-old boy just out of high school to pitch three innings-with the result that the next day every sporting page in America carried the story that young Bobby Teller, farmer boy from Van Meter, Iowa, had struck out eight of the nine Cardinals who faced himl
 So you may well imagine that Chuck Smith was kept busy the following half-hour reminiscing for the director Of those high school days back home when his youthful pitcher was already showing unmis- takable signs of the future great ness that was destined to establish Bcb Teller as one of baseball's most celebrated immortals.
 Day before yesterday a soldier from Iowa visited our Club for the first time Almost immediately the

talk turned to the name of friend iof his, the other of that proud { States two greatest athletes of this ] lgeneration-th name of Nile Kin
 nick, the University of Iowa's All
 American halfback and the great est player in the whole country dur ing his senior year.
 Yes, We talked at length-and with reverance-of Nile Kinnick, literally idolized throughout his native State ! for the gallantry of his competitive spirit when he played football and baseball and basketball for the Uni versity and for the gallantry of that same flaming spirit when he fought for his country and gave his life for it.
 So it was by chance that tEe names of Bob Teller and Nile Kin nick were spoken by strangers hap pening to meet here in the Juneau USO Club this past week, and were spoken with a deep and abiding re- spect. Beyond a doubt, they were being talked of, too, in many an- other place all over the earth where the conversations of American men turned to their heroes in the realm of sport and in the realm of war.
 And we venture to suggest today that this is not so trivial a thing as it might at first seem to be. For there are days when, for so many persons, ideals once we'll established, now appear to be crumbling away. The explanation is simple These persons have somehow lost faith in the men they once believed were loyal to those ideals. If the world
 more specifically, our own United States) is to lift itself out of the present chaos, it will need (more than any other single thing) a re- establishment of its confidence in it's fellow-men, a re-birth of it's faith that their promises will be kept.
 It is good thing that Bob Teller and Nile Kinnick are two of Amer icas heroes. AS a boy each had given most persuasive promise of the greatness to be expected from him as a man. Who is there among us all who does not earnestly hope that the heroes of his worship in high school and in college will go cn to become, as men, heroes no less outstanding? Bob Feller and Nile Kinnick, in sports and in war, have done exactly that, and more. Faith fully they have kept their promises.

JUNEAU'S USO NEWS Interesting Items for Everybody

to be stationed in Juneau plus those who from time to time will be tran- sients here for a few days, together with the large number who almost certainly will be passing through on ships, are believed by the two com- manding officers likely to total so very considerable number as to justify the continuance of the local USO.
 If this estimate proves correct, 1t appears likely that the Juneau Club will remain in operation at least un- til March 31, 1946, and perhaps con- siderably longer.
