MIXED CHORUS OF HIGH SCHOOL WILL
 PRESENT 0pERETIA
The Forest Prince" 10 Be Given Tomorrow Night
 in Gymnasium

"The Forest Prince" a Russian operetta in three acts, will be pre- sented by the mixed chorus of Ju- neau High School tomorrow night at 8 o'clock in the high school gymnasium.
 The operetta is based on musical scores from the compositions of Tschaikowsky ard includes such familiar and well-loved works as Waltz of the Flowers" March Slav," and excerpts from his Nut cracker Suite" and his Fifth and Sixth symphonies.
 Words adapted for this back ground tell story of warfare and romance in the days of 18th Gen. tury Russia. An intriguing plot Is woven around the beautiful prin- cess, Tatiania who is held for ran- som by the Cossacks, and Vasalv, the chief of the Cossacks with whom she finds herself in love. The cowardly Dmitri, Tatiania's fiance and general in the Tsar's army, inadvertently aids in the happy finale of the story by en- abling Vasalv to prove himself a prince and worthy of the hand in marriage of the lovely Tatiania.
 Cordelia Keppinger, music super visor in the Juneau schools, is di- recting the chorus, and Helen Schaefer, high school dramatics in- structor is directing the speaking parts The shop students under the direction of Henry Harmon are in charge of stage setting and man. agement, and the home economics classes under Phyllis Grant are as- sisting with the costuming.
 The leading roles are played by Claire Folta, soprano, as Tatiania. and Roger Pegues, baritone, as Vasalv. The others in the cast are as follows:

Sp00kY PICTURE,
 EAST SIDE KIDS
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Thrilling horror and shrieks of laughter are combined on "Spooks Run Wild the Monogram mys- tery which comes to the 20th Cen tury tonight, and eo-stars Bella Lugosi and the East Side Kids. !"
 Unmindful of the fact that a vicious killer known as "The Monster" is at large in the vicin- ity of the boys camp at which they are staying, Leo Gorcey, Bobby Jordan, Hunt2 Hall and the other members of their gang ven- ture out at night and become lost in the woods. Finally they bund- CT into an abandoned old man. sion occupied by the Learing Lu- gosi and his dwarf companion, and go through a night of terror which is filled with passages of uncon- scious hilarity.
 Eventually the breath of terror touches Lugosi himself, and it is then that the involved motives of the character produce a welter of crcss-purposes and hilarious sit- nations. Dark railways, trap doors, and coftin-strewn cellars play their part in creating an atomsphere of horror, and the picture reaches its climax with young woman in real danger of her life.
 The cast supporting Lugosi and the East Side Kids includes Doro- thy Short. David O'Brien, George Pembroke, Sammy Morrison, An- gelo Rossito and Rosemary Por- fla

WHY WOMEN WEAR
STYLES THEY DISLIKE

PORTLAND, Ore.-A phycholo-
gist hazarded a guess today on why
American women are discarding
clothes they like and donning ones

It's partly the same secret, says
DR.. Frederick A. Courts, assistant
psychology professor at Reed col

tator to stick on his throne. There's
no leader to start rebelling. He ex-
planned:
''The source of clothes is con-
trolled. A woman must buy the
style that's being shown, or not
buv. And people want to do what's
expected of them; a woman doesn't
want to seem economically unable
to follow the fashion.
"A buyers strike could force
short skirts back easily. But no
one with influence has started sucn
a strike. l think it would be very
easy to stage a revolt if the fash

would join.
There is the process we cal

PUBLIC OWNS MORE BONDS
THAN WHEN WAR ENDED
continued from first paRe)

The Treasury says no. The mon
ey received for savings bonds is
used to redeem other securities,
some of which are held by banks.
A great deal of the national debt
is owed to banks.
In wartime, the government
didn't need to go to the trouble of
huge bond drives to pay for the
war. 1t could have borrowed all
the money it needed from banks
and corporations.
But that would have been dang
erOus business, as the banks them
selves agreed. 1t was sounder to
get the fast-rising national debt in
the hands of as many people as
possible, not just banks and cor
pOrations.
Besides, it was desirable to hold
down the amount of money in cir
culation, in order to check spend
ing and slow the rise in prices.
Same Reasons Prevail
You couldn't hold down the
amount of money in circulation by
borrowing from bank, for that
only increases the amount.
The Treasury wanted to give mil
lions of Americans the opportun-
ity to save for worthy purposes
for security. and more purchasing
power in the future-at a time
when the country may badly need
purchasing power.
Now, two years later, those are
still the reasons why the Treasury
has a staff of 383 people. whose jot
is to push the sale of savings
bonds.
