OF all the professional photog-

the closest kinship with Alaskans.
TITS my first trip" lie said, but
felt at home instantly. Probably
it's the general attitude-you see,
I came from Montana, about 125
miles from Livingston. It's more
than Alaskans just naturally being
home folks-so many places look
the same. The first three places 1
went would look right at home
there. Mikes is a dead-ringer for
one Of my favorite Montana spots.
Madden, a free-lance cameraman
now based in Los Angeles, is in
Juneau for two or three weeks on
assignments for The Ladies' Home
Journal and Mademoiselle Mag
azine. He wants to do general pic
lures hereabouts, and is firing sug-
gastions to Black Star, his New
York agent. While in the Ter
ritory on these assignments. he
wants to get new ideas. Madden
came here by boat, to get rest
after strenuous job for Life Mag
azine, ranging through the western
states.
Candid photography is his stock
in trade, through an individualistic
approach-he likes to take pictures
that record situations. Asked now
he learned to take pictures, Mad
den replied, Behind camera
but you never finish learning"

cover of The Ladies' Home Journal,
in the Undiscovered American
Beauties" series was his-a picture
of a little telephone operator.
Madden does a great deal of
work for Life Magazine. One Life
spread which attracted unusual at
tention was his documentary treat

Among noted photographers in

COAST LEAGUE TO
see CHANGES IN
PLAYER LINEUp5
(By the Associated Press

The Pacific Coast League cam
paign enters its Goth week tonight.
with some noteworthy alterations in
the status of five players.
Heading the list is outfielder
Johnny Berardino, on option to
Sacramento from Cleveland. The
Solons gave him back. to the In
dams yesterday, mainly because
they couldn't support him in the
style to which he's been accustomed.
Berardino repeatedly was being
paid in the neighborhood of 100000,
and that's mighty ritzy neighbor-
hood for last place club. Anyway,
the gentleman was only hitting .228.
Next comes the sudden recupera-
ton of pitcher Pinky Woods. given
up for lost two weeks ago by Holly
wood. Manager Fred Haney joyously
announced that Woods has re-
covered from his thigh injury sooner
than anticipated. So much so, in
fact, that Woods will pitch tonight's
home series opener against Port
land.
The Hollywoods also will trot out
two new heavy-hitting- they hope
outfielders this week-Johnny Lin
dell and George Schmees. Lindell
will be making his first appearance
in the home park; Schmees is ex-
pected in from Montreal today.
Portland has some recent addi-
tons of its own, however, namely
Fenton Mole and Leo Thomas. The
Beavers possess the leagues No.
home run boy. too, Joe Brovia.
There also are murmurings from
Pei headquarters to the effect that
the prevailing 20O-game schedule
will be trimmed somewhat next year
1t conflicts with the football season.
Otherwise, the situation is pretty
much ho-hum. what with Oakland
holding a 9la game lead and all.
The Oaks entertain Seattle tonight
in series opener at Emeryville.
