WEEKEND E WEEKEND FEATURE
 AT 10TH CENTURY

The Lost Weekend" continues to te the weekend feature at the 20th Century Theatre with Ray Midland playing the central char acter with Jane Wyman co-star- ring opposite Miland, and Philip Terry, Howard da Silva and Doris Bowling included in the support ing cast.
 The picture is not pretty one. No punches are pulled and the audience is spared nothing of the horror which haunts a man af- flicted with chronic alcoholism.
 It is the story of five merciless nights and days in the life of Don Birnam-a sensitive, intelligent person of thirty-three dragged to the dregs by a weakness beyond his control.
 The torment Midland endures in this remarkable screen characteri- ration exceeds the fire and brim- stone of anything the most Satanic devil could devise. His portrayal is terrifying in its realism. He puts the movie-goer through an emotional wringer that leave him limp with exhaustion.

Jim Klein On WSC Honor RoiI, Also
 R0TC Rifle Team

Jim Klein, son of MT. and Mrs John Klein, and graduate last year of Juneau High School, is doing all right for himself and reflecting credit to JHS, as a fresh- man at Washington State College at Pullman, Wash.
 According to reports from Pull man, Jim is one of the 706 on the college honor roll for the first semester. Other Alaskan students whose names are on the honor roll are Rodney Burch and Robert Selfridge, Ketchikan; John Hall. jr., Fairbanks, and Carroll Fay AL len, Haines.
 In addition to his scholastic rec ord, Jim is a member of the Cougar ROTC rifle team, which this year is running up a record on the target range. The team now boasts 2l consecutive wins in coast to coast postal matches with other ROTC teams, and also took second place in the Hearst Shoot, taking three places in the first 16 colleges of the nation.
 Possibly the part that makes Jim's parents and his High School mentor, Henry Harmon, the proud est is that it is somewhat ex- ceptional for a freshman at any college to make the ROTC team, and when that team turns out to be champion calibre, it rather points up the pre-college train ing received by team member.
