"(ARNEGIE HALL," LAST TIME TONIGHT,
 CAPITOL THEATRE

Carnegie Hall" one of the out standing musical hits because o1 the great stars appearing, will Le shown for the final time tonight al the Capitol Theatre. For the past two nights, capacity audiences have praised this production.
 The story thread, which ties to- gether so ingeniously the musical genius of this extraordinary group of musical stars. is expertly played by a cast of Hollywood luminaries headed by Marsha Hunt, William Prince, Hans Yaray, Martha O'Dris- coll, and Frank McHugh. Olin Downes, distinguished music critic of the New York Times. can be seen attending concerts in the film just as if he were carrying out assign ments in his own personal career.
 As music has, from time imme- morial, been recognized as the uni versal language, wordless means of binding peoples of all races and creeds together, Carnegie Hall could easily serve as highly en- tertaining messenger of good will. It definitely has universal appear.

VARIETY AND pATH0S ARE QUALITIES OF
 SATURDAY CONCERT

Distinguishing characteristics of concerts given by Shelby Nichols are variety and pathos Variety, in ais range from light lifting melodies of the deep South to traditional concert numbers by Mozart; pathos. in musical interpretation such as one might expect from a good ambassador of the Negro race.
 It is with readily understood and justifiable pride that the concert in Juneau will include numbers of his own composing.
 When presenting music in the lighter vein, performances of Shelby Nichols have been described as a ''one man show" However, the singer is at his best when, before an appreciative audience of music lovers, he can demonstrate the va riety of his technique, and impart the pathos of his feelings, by run ming the gamut from haunting and wistful spirituals to the more subtle harmonics of concert numbers from the Masters.
 It is anticipated that such will be the order of events Saturday evening, when this talented basso- baritone will sing at the Memorial Presbyterian Church of Juneau No vember 19.

2-FEATURE BILL E OPENING TONIGHT
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Two features will be on the screen tonight and tomorrow at the 20th Century Theatre.
 Che ot the features is Jack Lon don's Wolf Call" with John Car roll and Movita in the leading roles.
 The other feature Junior Prom, . crowded with laughs, music and drama that faces high school kids when they hold an election.
 The entire cast from top tea- tured players Freddie Stewart, June Preisser and July Clark to the tive dancers are natural and likable. This marks Stewards initial film role, and the young vocalist, who made hit with Tommy Dorsey band, on the air and with the Kappa Barra Boys, does likewise with his songs in "Junior Prom
 He is boosted for presidency of the student body in the Whitney High elections, but withdraws when he learns that the father of his opponent, Jackie Moran, will stor donating to the school if his son is not elected. It takes the glib tongue of Warren Mills to induce Freddie to throw his hat back into the ring.
 When Moran makes play for June Preisser, Freddie's girl, it makes the latter even more anxious to run for office. However, his chances are not very good after Moran and his campaign manager, Frankie Darro, put on a tlistering speaking campaign, until Stewart gets the idea of using his voice, singing to win votes,

FANS EXECUTIVES
 ARE BACK FROM
 EAST COAST TRIP

Visits with relatives in Maine consultations with publishers in New York City, and with Indian Office executives in Washington DC, and trip to Lexington, Ky, where Dr. Dale lectured before a seminar of the University of Ken lucky sociology department, are only few of the experiences that pr. George A. Dale and Dr. Evelyn Butler crowded into six weeks vacation from which they returned aboard the Princess Norah.
 Drs. Dale and Butler, who are di- rector of education, Alaska Native Service, and ANS social welfare supervisor, left Juneau October. 5 by CPR steamer and made the trip by Canadian Pacific Railway to the east coast where their first stop was at Dover -Foxcroft, Maine. There, wiih their four-year-old daughter Edythe, they visited Dr. Buffers family, saw her sister, Mrs. Eileen Linde, formerly of St. Ann's hospital in Juneau and their daughter Pat Butler who attended school in Juneau several years ago.
 In Washington, where Dr. Dale consulted with w. w. Beattie, di- rector of education of the Indian Service, he also visited Delegate E. L. Bartlett and Will Goding.
 On invitation from the Univer- sity of Kentucky, Dr. Dale met with sociology seminar where he pre- sented his observations on the modern eskimos with lectures and slides to the sociology, geography and economics staffs.
 To assist in a new course that will be presented by the University of Kentucky Society Around the World" Dr. Dale is preparing an exhibition of eskimo material, pie lures and articfacts. The eskimos, with the Bagandi of Africa are the two primitive groups that will be studied in the course.
 The trip to Kentucky was not all on the academic side, however. T certainly found what is meant by southern hospitality Dr. Dale said. "In Lexington, where people talk of their famous horses like memters of the family or as they would of famous people, there is little of greater interest than a visit to the famous farms where these horses are raised. don't know how many Kentucky Derby winners I saw but my visit included a trip to the famous Calumet Farms and others as colortul.'
 New York and interviewers with publishers produced an interesting experience when pr. Dale met an executive at McMillan's whose name was Livengood-and who was interested in Alaska because some one in his family went to Alaska and had settlement named for nim.",
 Probably the incident most ex- citing to the family was young Edythe's meeting with her first Santa Claus in Vancouver last week.

Taft Says Prices Are
Falling, But
o Mahoney Declares
They Are Spiraling
nv The As.ncIn,ch Pre.s,

Try The ASSoctnt"d PresS'
WASHINGTON, March 81. -
Senator O'Mahoney, Democrat,
and Senator Taft, Republican, are
poles apart in their opinions about
initiation, or the lack of it.
Senator Taft said that, with
falling prices for commodities,
there IS no further need of pass
ing bills designed to curb infla-
ton. He added that the law of
supply and demand is now work
ing satisfactorily.
But Senator O'Mahoncy takes
an entirely different view. In
stead of prices decreasing, he de-
clared that prices have gone up
on several commodities during
the last month.
Danger of initiation, he assert
ed, is still imminent, and for that
reason congress should pass the
bills recommended by the Pres
ident to curb inflationary trends.
The proposed bills, if they be-
come laws, O'Mahoncy explained,
would give are President powers
to step in, whenever he thought
it necessary, to halt Skyrocketing
prices.
Nine vice presidents of labor
unions today asked congress to
repeal the Taft Hartley law and
substitute a masure based on the
former Wagner labor act.
