So any threatened boycott of

Even if the men could give up
the morale-boosting value of a hair

their doing so for long.

BY RUTH

BARRIERS in Lafayette, Ind, we're
so upset over a strike of men stu
dents at Purdue University against
haircuts that they appealed to the
governor to end the strike.
They claimed that the students
threat to go without haircuts was
running their business.
Perhaps the BARRIERS took the
threat too seriously. After all, mer
are vain, and haircuts are impor-
tant to their egos.
Any wife - and any smart secre-
tary-knows that if a woman fails
to notice a mans haircut when he
has just come from his BARRIERS,
he is as disgruntled as a woman
when a man fails to comment or
her new hat.

Juneau's s Fair Rollers Sill Have Chance in Infer
 City Kegling

Already practically over tne'r heads, Juneau Elks Men bowlefs wound up an alley session against the Ketchikan lodgemen yesterday, just about completely sunk-422 pins behind with but one more match round to roll.
 The Juneau ladies, rolling their third round against Ketchikans fair ones, did some better, slicing 56 pins off the First City ladies' lead down to 193-pin margin. That's not impossible to overcome with two rounds yet to go.
 Claude Carnegie, Juneau captain, was the first roller to go over 600 in the current matches; but he didn't get enough support from his cohorts. Of them, only Bob Davln topped 500. The 420-men didn't fail too badly yesterday, however, slipping back only an additional 39 pins

COM. GRAY SETS
 MEEK5 HEARING
 THIS ALTERING

U. s. Commissioner Felix Gray yesterday afternoon forestalled the District Courts stepping into the preliminary stages of the case of the United States vs. George Harrison Meeks.
 Commissioner Gray signed prev iously denied order presented by defense counsel William L. Paul, Jr., for a writ of habeas corpus for Meeks- then, after huddle with newly-appointed U. s. Attorney Pat Gilmore, set this afternoon at 2 o'clock as the time for preliminary hearing on the charge against Meeks cutting with intent to kill or wound
 Gray's action sidetracked a peti- ton Paul yesterday presented to the District Court for the habeas corpus procedures petition which Presid- ing Judge J. w. Kehoe had agreed to consider this morning. Attorney Paul withdrew his petition this fore noon.
 Since the writ order signed by Commissioner Gray called fer Meeks to be returned in the District Court no sooner than the Commissioners Court hearing this afternoon, the calling of that heading automatically knocks the props out from under Meeks' demands for observance of his Constitutional rights.
 The whole writ business is now just side issue with no further stand ing. Determination of whather Meeks is to continue in jail on a bind over to the Grand Jury, or be freed. now is up to the decision of the Commissioners Court.
 Paul has indicated that he will call four "alibi' witnesses at the hearing this afternoon, while the District Attorney is expected to place his main reliance on the statement of Kelso B. Hartness, who accused Meeks of wounding him more than a score of times in knife assault and who is being held in custody as a material witness. It has been stated that Hartness now wants to withdraw the charge he signed against Meeks-but that doesn't 30 The United States government is the plaintiff in the cause.

 GIFT OF SITE
 FOR HOSPITAL
(Continued from Page Onei

General Superintendent, is plan ming to leave for the National Cap ital on the sanatorium question right after the first of next month, and that he should carry with him Juneau offer to present the ANS with a suitable site-ready bought and tied up in gift parcel
 The Mayor also asked for ex- pression of opinion from the tax paying public of the City during the next two weeks, as to willing ness to accept possible expenditure of from $1o,000 to S15,0oo to make certain that the sanatorium will be located here.
 City "All Out"
 Mayor Parsons received one prompt answer from the floor of the Council Chamber: J. B. Bur ford, as a taxpayer, declaring his belief that the City should "go all out" to secure the hospital here; perhaps By taking an option on the selected site to send along with MT. Foster to Washington
 That suggestion was compared by the Mayor to action already taken by Ketchikan The ANS has other sites offered it by other Southeast Alaska cities, he said Ketchikan has a site adjacent to it's city lin- its which it has placed at the bu- reau's without a price tag.
 Regarding acquisition by Juneau of the Douglas Island area approv- ed by Dr. Norris, Councilman Skuse answered Councilman Stan Grummett that steps have already been taken to determine the cost of the property. As to possibility of purchase, Skuse said that Mrs. Mildred Hermann is the legal guardian of the owner and she has expressed herself as very favorable to sale of the property for such use.
 Councilman Dick Williams want ed to know if it might be possible for the ANS to have its engineers test the Douglas Island location right away to see if it will measure up to the cemetery site as sana- torium spot. Dr. Norris replied that it is desired to have construction men come out from the Indian Af- fairs Chicago office to make the determination.
 To another query, the doctor re- piled that he thought minimum of 10 acres would be required for the institution. Architect Harold Foss wanted to know if the sana- torium site would be taxable if it could be included within the, city limits. The answer to that was No"
 Mayor Parsons closed the discus sion by declaring that he hoped to be able to provide MT. Foster, with assurance that the City of Juneau will be in position to provide a suitable site before MT. Foster sets off for Washington.

 IRE AT ANTICS
 OF p0LICELADY
Mrs. Krause Threatens 10 Emulate Atomic Bomb If
 Baderging Continues

Strongly-voiced charges against Juneau's Policewoman, Isabel Har- tung, hurled by MT. and Mrs. Ed Krause, last evening dropped a flash of fire into an otherwise sedate City Council session.
 After recounting incidents which she considered evidence of police womanly picking on" her 17-year- old daughter, Mrs. Krause flung a wrath -whetted challenge at the cur few enforcer, declaring: If she makes any more trouble, she'll think an atomic bomb hit her"
 MT. Krause took up the cudgels on behalf of their 15-year-old son, whom, he declared, has been con tinually badgered" by the same Policewoman Hartung Mrs. Krause charged that her daughter had been fired from her job as cashier at the Coliseum Theatre due to pressure brought by Mrs. Hartung; while her spouse protested the policewoman's action in calling at the Juneau High School to hail their son into ju- venile court. That incident, which occurred last week, cost his son school credit in Citizenship, MT. Krause alleged. Has the police woman authority to do that? he ask cd
 MT. Krause further stated that, though he and his son had been called into juvenile court to answer a charge that the boy had been in cn the pilfering of a food locker, three other lads who admitted their guilt on the same charge had exon erated the Krause offspring. Yet that policewoman," without evil 'dence, continued to maintain that his boy did it, Krause alleged. My boy was at home all that night" he further avowed.
 The worst things that could be found on his sons record, the irate father continued, are that he blows his nose" as he passes the police woman on the street, because he knows it "gets her goat" Also that she caught him out after curfew once; attending a bond rally where tie boy bought a $50 bond.
 Handling children requires spread ing "a little oil as well as scat tering sand She's all sand-no oil, Mir. Krause concluded his indictment of Policewoman Hartung. If an unpopularity contest was to be held in Juneau, she'd win it!"
 MT. Krause's question as to wheth- CT the policewoman has authority to take a child out of school was referred to City Attorney Howard D. Stabler, who replied: She's be- ing educated in her duties and au- thority. I don't think you should have any more trouble"
 The charges against Mrs. Hartung were referred by Mayor Ernest Par sons to the Councils Police Commit tee. Chairman Harry Lea immed- lately suggested that he'd like tc have a meeting with the Krauses and Mrs. Hartung to dig into both sides of the affair. The Krauses were agreeable.
