Gene Wells, as his many
friends used to call him, passed
10 the Great Beyond. He played
softball at the park and. at the

a good, clean player and quiet.

told, on and off the field. He

SUPPRESSION OF pR0STETUTloN !S
 MADE IN REQUEST
Territorial Commissioner of Health Puts Issue
 Before Council

Suppression of prostitution in Ju- neau to prevent the alleged spread of venereal disease which it is claimed has risen alarmingly in the city during the past four months was the issue raised before th- City Counci' last night.
 In letter 10 the City Council, Dr. c. Earl Albrecht, Territorial! Commissioner of Health, stated that "venereal disease, chiefly gonoThea' has shown a persistent increase during the last four months. During the month of December the number of cases reported was the highest of any Alaskan community"
 Tn Juneau it is common know ledge that prostitution exists" said the letter. Because of the high incidence of venereal disease and for other reasons which 1t would not seem necessary for ne to point out, prostitution must be suppressed. An influential organization of citizens from the city of Juneau has al ready approached me on the matter and indicated their desire to see that appropriate enforcement mea- sures be taken to remedy this sit uation."
 The letter also quoted from the Territorial Law, Section 1862 of the Compiled Laws of Alaska 1883, which declares the conducting of houses of illfame, their premises and contents as nuisance.
 Dr. Albrecht recommended that prompt steps be taken to suppress lewdness, assignation or prostitu- ton or any other immoral act which exists or might hereafter oc- cur in the city of Juneau"
 Dr. Albrecht recommended the adoption of a city ordinance which he enclosed with his letter. This ordinance, the letter stated, offers the city government a strong and effective legal means for continu- ous control of prostitution, the di- rect source and cause of Yenereal disease.
 A special meeting of the City Council will be held next week at which the subject will be discuss ed with Dr. Albrecht.

SUCCESSFUL

The newly formed Cleveland
Little Symphony, composed of
thirty Cleveland Orchestra mu-

presentation of their first two
concerts at the Euclid Avenue
Baptist Auditorium.
Audiences and newspaper
critics alike thrilled to the beau

which had never been played in

The welcome which the or
chestra received was encourag-
ing to the musicians and prov
ed that such an orchestra is a
definite need in the city.
Besides the orchestra itself,
q great reason for the success
of the new venture was the
wholehearted support of the
approximately 14O patrons.
Among the patrons were a
