R0TARIANS HAVE BUSY
 DAY; LIBRARY BOARD
 REPORTS ON CAMPAIGN

If the enthusiasm and cooperative civic pride which prevailed at the Rotary Club luncheon today were to te emulated throughout the city for about one week, Juneau would probably have a new library by spring.
 Frank Heintzleman, Chairman of the Juneau Memorial Library Board, spoke before the Club at the regular meeting in the Gold Room of the Baranof Hotel.
 Guests at the luncheon included lis associates on the board, Dr. James C. Ryan and MT. B. D. Stew art. Heintzleman gave a report on the achievements of the p civic. social, and fraternal groups which have made possible the purchase of the lots for the site of the lib- rary, and contributed so substan- tially to the funds for the build ing itself,
 At the conclusion of his talk. Haintzleman, Ryan and Stewart were given a rousing vote of thanks for their fine contribution to the campaign for a new library.
 So far, 32 pledges for $l,000 or better have teen made by individ- uals and corporations of both Ju- neau and the Outside for the con- struction of the building, and to- tai subscription of $42,043 has been offered by 52 persons, Heintzleman said.
 The three-member board has been working diligently on the project for ove "a year, contacting possible contributors both here and in the States, and taking every opportun- ity to further the cause of the lib- rary campaign.
 They feel that to continue their work effectively they need assis- tance, and Heintzleman asked Pre- sident Homer Garvin to appoint two Rotary members to the board, and expressed the hope that meeting might be held shortly with other organizations to establish an ad- visory board of at least 12 members to aid in the campaign for funds.
 Pot Of Sitter
 Rod DarneI sustained the spirit of the luncheon very materially by bringing around a pot of silver dragged from the depths of the fish pond at Darnells Sporting Goods Center.
 Members were asked to guess the amount of money containd in the pot, and each Rotarian contributed 50 cents The money was counted, and the winner was visitor Bill Di- delius of Idaho. He was presented with half of the total collection talk

The Douglas City Council met last night with Territorial Com missioner of Education James c. Ryan and the representatives of tn Douglas Cannery attending a special meeting in the City Hall
 Dr. Ryan explained to the Coun- cil the meaning of a School Dis trict, its advantages and disad- vantages in the case the Doug las residents were interested in such a move as is contemplated in Juneau.
 The Douglas Canning Co.,, rep resented by M M. Miller and Marcus F. Jensen, took up a new lease with the city for the city's dock and buildings, paid the in- surance On the buildings with the view of operating if possible dur ing the present year.
 The former lease under which the cannery was operating was held by the R and H Import Co.,, of New York, and was cancelled by the Council last year Lease terms are similar to those before, ex- cept that the city will reserve the right to insist on the upkeep of the dock and see that it is kept in good repair

Campbell then went to his room at the Keystone Rooms for the night. She said that she saw his watch that morning when he lit a match to see what time it was, but that she had not noticed it prior to that occasion.
 Campbell Had S2,000
 Campbell left the room before 10 o'clock, she stated, and re- turned with several bills, saying that he had $2,O0O. According to her testimony, she left at o'clock in the afternoon, and saw him again after the show on Sat urday night. They spent a short time in the Dreamland, after which he left her to keep another date.
 Nathan Skinner was the last to testify yesterday. He is soldier in the U s. Army and resident of Juneau. Skinner said that he met Meeks in Gulkana while both men were employed with the Alaska Road Commission. Upon reaching Juneau early in November, he was approached by Meeks for a loan. In repayment the de- fendant offered him either cash or an 11-jewel Illinois watch. Skin- ner accepted the watch, and later exchanged it with Meeks for gold Hamilton which was identified in court as being the same one as Governments exhibit number g.
 Meeks Borrows SEQ
 He said that the transaction took place, after Meeks had again borrowed $20 from him, in the Salo Rooms, in the presence of John Ritter and Dora Kluitch, on December 26, 1943. Kelso Hartness later joined the group.
 Skinner then testified that short ly after he acquired the watch he told Meeks that the FBI had ques- toned him about it. Meeks told him to say the Hamilton was the first watch he had given him, and also told him to tell his father that he had obtained it from John Ritter.
 The witness gave the watch to William Didelius, then with the FBI, and received a receipt bear ing the number of the movement The receipt was produced and ac- cepted as Governments exhibit number 24
 Skinner was not sure where Meeks claimed to have secured the watch, beyond the fact that the defendant had mentioned that he bought it for $10.
 Following Skinner's testimony, court recessed until 10 o'clock this morning
