A review of the Lionism spirit
of service and accomplishment:
was given by Herbert c. Petry, Jr.
International President at re-
gular luncheon meeting of the Ju-
neau Lions Club at the Baranot
Hotel Monday noon.
Petry sketched the beginning OF
the Lions club in 1914 in Chicago
with it's ideal of service to Others
less fortunate. He told of the first
meeting in Dallas, Tex, in 1917
with IS clubs representing 80t
members that decided on project
in sight conservation, the pushing
of the white cane law in various
states, providing clinics, glasses and
seeing eye dogs for the blind.
Other projects later follow with
the Canadian clubs providing sum-
mer camps for crippled children,
of work with spastics launched by
the Kentucky clubs, a Lighthouse
for the Blind in Miami, Fla, a
tuberculosis hospital in Guatemala
City, a half million-dol Hospital
in Panama City, and other worthy
accomplishments of Lions, saying,
You can't put price tag on these
things"
He reminded the Juneau MEM
bers that the Lions had given
wholehearted support to the United
Nations from the beginning ane
was the first service club to bt
given a consultant status for tina.
body.
{ Regarding Communism hi
pointed out that it breeds among
the discontents and in slums where
Lions have gone to provide SWIM
ming pools and Fairgrounds ano
other activities to counteract it.
There are over one million men
in the United States in various
service clubs, all working with a
service motive. This in itself is a
potent force against those who
would destroy our way of life,' he
concluded

Alaska Highway Patrol, was also a
guest.

The Red Sox and Yankees were
next on the. list. The Browns took
two out of three from Boston's third
place Sox and followed by splitting
a doubleheader with the league
leading Yankees yesterday.
They knocked the Yanks off, 6-5,
in the first game and battled the
Bombers tooth and nail until the
last inning of the second before ca
pitulating, 6-1. At that, it took a
grand-slam, pinch hit homer by ga
year-old Johnny Hopp to beat them.
Despite the split the Yanks moved
game ahead of the second-place
