 SEATTLE = Americas fishing industry on the Pacific coast has heen given a tremendous boost through utilization of a chemical formula ice, recently discovered in Seattle, that has enabled commer- cial fishermen literally to kick their age-old enemy-spoilage-out the porthole.
 Hailed as the miracle ice" by fishermen and fishing operators alike, it contains bacteria-retard- ing white formula powder. As the ice gradually melts in the hold of a fishing vessel, a solution develops which flows over the fish, keeping them fresh much longer than ordi- nary crushed ice-as high as 10 days and even longer.
 Thus, through use of the new ice, present steady depletion of the worlds great fish supply will be re- tarded by millions upon millions of pounds of catches which spoil an- nually for want of proper refrigera- tiofl.
 Customers at fishmarkets also will be able to point and say wrap that one up" without taking the usual cautious sniff of the finny fare.
 It has proven especially helpful to halibut fishermen operating on the fishing banks of Kodiak, Alas ka. who have been delayed by storms or engine trouble when re- turning to Seattle with their catches.
 In such instances, many hauls packed in ordinary crushed ice have spoiled, forcing fishermen to dump the halibut and head back to the banks for more fishing, a very dis couraging and expensive process.
 Commercial fishermen carrying the new ice also report their fish received the highest grading with no loss due to culls or bruised fish that their holds had no fishy smell and the bilges were free of char acteristic foul odors.
 The new formula ice is harmless to humans, and does not impart the slightest odor or flavor. It helps re- tain the natural firm texture of the fish longer, even enhances flavor of the fish by preserving natural juices, and prevents definite amount of shrinkage, which alone more than reimburses the fisher

We hate to bother you. But may we dance? Or will we disturb any body?"
 Assured the answer to the first question was yes" and to the second was no" moment later they had the rug relied back,-and the party was on.
 A good party it was, too. The atmosphere was cheery, the com pany congcnial, and among the guests tat least in the opinion of one observer at the party) there was included a vivid and outstand- ing personality. Her name is Crys- tai Tanner, from Les Angeles, Calf; and her hobby, as entered in our State Registry. is Flying , And that's appropriate because she's just the kind of girl you see pictured in those advertise ments piloting. enc of the post war private planes and giving it that extra -glamorous touch Whether piloting a plane or being piloted around a dance floor, we salute lovely, blonde Crystal Tanner as a notable blessing, both post war and also immediate.
 Our guests were due back at the ship at 8 o'clock. Just five minutes before the hour the dancing ceased, and the n.gnJ O. Thursday, July 26th, was formally over.
 The Juneau USc Ciup has had a tea dance or two in the past. Last weeks affair may be accu- rately described as the very first of it's pre-orange juice and coffee dances. Personally, we enjoyed it. We hope there1l be more of them.
 TWO OF THE VERY BEST
 In the stastical report which each USO must file every month at the National Headquarters, there's a space for "Information Services Location of Persons" Of course it's purpose is to record the assistance given to the servicemen who are trying to find where local people

THE DAwN,s EARLY LIGHT

We thought we'd seen everything everything, that is, in the way of night life around the USO. But we hadn't really until last Thurs day night, or, more accurately, until Friday morning.
 It was 6:15 a. m. The director was strengthening up the club lounge, preparatory to going home Quite a crowd of servicemen had been in at one time or another since midnight, also several dozen girls All in all, he felt that the USO had been satisfactorily busy and gay spot throughout the night.
 Now, finally, the whole building was silent. Even ,ne last or the perenially- late arrivals for the dor mitory had gone up to bed some time before.
 Suddenly the director heard, or thought he heard, whispering voices in the hallway. "Is it still open-at this heur?" Sure, it's still open. At east we're in, aren't we?" You're right,-there's some one over there"
 Hello! Glad to see you, said the Someone. Certainly the clubs open" And several pairs of GIs and their girl friends were intro- ducing themselves to him. Were off the ship that's just come in.

ere living. The Juneau clubs monthly report ordinarily hsts about a dozen such inquiries.
 Many GI request for word as to our Missing Persons" however, never gets into any official report, We couldn't tell you accurately at the end of any month the total of such inquiries as to the where abouts and the welfare of those Missing Misses WHO once were active members of our Girls Ser >vice Organization. But we can state confidently two things about them {: They are very numerous; and two of those girls are the subject of more frequent inquiries than any of the many others. No wonder, either, in view of what these two meant to the USO and it's men while they still were in Juneau.
 Yes, the questions most often asked are: What do you hear these days about Doris McEach- ran?' and Where is Dessa Sch neider now; and how is she get ting along?" Condensed, the ans wers are: We're glad to report both of them are well and doing excellently in their work"
 Dessa is in Russeliville, Ark, in the midst of her second year at Arkansas Tech. She's majoring in Business Administration. Among her extra -curricular activities are singing in the chcir. playing in the band,-and flying. In fact, she all ready has her wings. tDessa all ways had pair of wings attached to those fast-stepping feet of hers. Everyone hereabouts acknowledged her to be one of our very best Jitterbug dancersD We all wish she'd fly back to Juneau in. a hurry which is exactly what her mother reports. she expects to be doing, though this isn't likely to happen before January.
 Within a few days now Doris will have completed her first year at Stanford University, in Palo Alto, Calf. (She's a Sophomore at present, having previously spent a year at the University of Wash ington.) Like Dessa she has been singing in the choir. She has be- come a Nurses Aide; and, perhaps partly influenced by this experi- ence. she is thinking of majoring in Physio- -Therapy.
 Doris has done exceedingly well enthusiastically this year,-which will not come as surprise to anybody who recalls that she was valedic- torian of her high school slass. She doesn't expect to be back here be- fore next summer.
 Just writing this item about them gives us a deeply-felt sort of home-sickness for Doris and Dessa !! Just naturally Juneau and it's USO could not be the same since their departure Certainly each of those girls had very winning way with her. (When we say had" we don't mean to sound as though we were writing an obituary notice Each of them still has that way with her, only more so, we'll bet)
 Two of the most helpful csc members we've ever had, they con- tinue to be missed as keenly as the day each left us. May they return sooner than we expect and in the meantime, may they be extremely happy!

WEEK END OUTINGS

Possessed of an incurably opti- niistic disposition and complete lapse of memory of recent matters meteorological, the USO is plan ming not just one outdoor party over the coming week end, but two.
 On Sunday there is to be the all- day boat trip to Taku. This party was announced several weeks ago. Within a day it was over-sub- scribed; now there is quite a wait ing list. s
 Saturday night there will be a picnic at one of the beaches. Fur ther details will be given out to- night at the dance. (This affair is being planned to take the place of the formal dance which has had to be postponed for several weeks due to the fact that the renovations to the Scottish Rite Temple are still incomplete.)
 The exclusive USO Column fore casts for the week end: The par ties -unqualifiedly successful. The weather-even more SO! (For de- termination of the details of the parties; don't wait; check up promptly with the staff. For veri- fication of the week end weather, wait until the week end.)
 THE BODY BEAUTIFUL
 Although we are not Bernarr McFadden publication, we herewith raise our voice in praise of the Body Beautiful Today we've time for only a note or two. But next week you'll hear us in several verses and a couple of choruses.
 Watch this column on Thursday for the testimonial theme song ;: Thirty days ago I was a wreck not only was ashamed to let any of my friends see me-the fact is I didn't have any friends. Then I subjected myself to the Ventrelli- Tomsky Course of Body Building and NOW LOOK AT MEL"
 dn case we've left the matter in doubt: The body we've been talking about belongs to the USO station wagon. The rest of us down here look no better than we did 30 days agoD se
