Science, Fittion Thriller Is Now Al 70fh Century

Paramount's "When Worlds Col lide,' the epic Technicolor drama about cataclysmic collision be- tween the earth and runaway star, has passed the severest test to which a science fiction thriller can be subjected. After special previews for men who know their stars and rockets best, the outstanding scien- tific authorities praised the films accuracy and realism.
 This doesn't mean that the earth is in imminent danger of being blown out into space. But the cos mic possibilities that the picture ponders are reasonable and the eye popping phenomena valid.
 When Worlds Collide" now at the goth Century Theatre. is packed with some of the most startling spectacles ever recorded on film. George Pal who previously staged Destination Moon" produced.

Comits, Horror
 Group Fine Fare Now af Capitol

When Bud Abbott and Lou Cos tello get mixed up with the Wolf Man, Dracula and Frankenstein's Monster the ingredients are present fer one of filmdom's most unusual products. And that's the concoction that's evolved in the Universal-In- ternational presentation Abbott and Costello Meet Frankenstein," 1" which opens today at the Capitol Theatre with an amazing assort- ment of thrills, chills and belly aching humor.
 Lon Clancy is cast as the Wolf Man, Bela Lugosi as Dracula and Glenn Strange as the Monster, and all three worthies perform in such horrifying fashion that low blood pressure will be cured at single treatment An Invisible Man, a propelled bat and pair of Vampires add their bit to create sl ortness of breath or make the heart pound. Lou Costello has a ns rrow escape Cor maybe it's the Monster) when he is rescued from having his brain transformed to the Monster by Dracula. With his side kick, Bud Abbott, Lou is his usual hilarious self.
 Abbott and Costello Meet Frank enstein" was directed by Charles T. Barton and produced by Robert Arthur.

will appear on the ballot for the general election on the second Tuesday of October in the same years.
 Tn The Primary election, each of the political parties will nominate not more than one candidate for each office to be filled. It should be noted, in this con- nection, that there has been change in the apportionment of the Alaska House of Representatives since the last general election. Next fall the First Division will elect six members to the House in- stead of eight The Second Divi- sion will elect three instead of four; the Third Division will elect ten instead of seven and the Fourth Division will elect five, the same number as heretofore. Independent candidates for the Legislature may be nominated for the general election by petition signed by 50 qualified electors or the candidates home division ana requesting that his name be plac- ed on the ballot.
 In addition, the candidate must sign an endorsement upon the pet ition to the effect that he accepts such nomination and will serve in the office if elected
 This Petition must be filed with the Clerk of the Court. As to just when it must be filed, there again seems to be a conflict in the law.
 In Section 38-4-20 of ACLA, 1949, it says, "all such nominations must be filed on or prior to the date or the primary election In other words prior to the fourth Tuesday of April In section 38-5-20 of the same volume, however, it says the petition shall be filed with the clerk of the court for such judicial division on or before the first day Of February of the year in which general elections are held
 To be on the safe side, an inde- pendent candidate should probably file his petition no later than Feb ruary l.
 It is interesting to note that there appears to be no filing fee required for filing petition of nomination The filing of a Declaration of Candidacy for the primary election on the other hand, calls for fee Of S9 or $l0.

The Political Pot $ commencing to send forth small jets of steam here and there around the Terri tory. AS a result of the awakening interest in politics, a reader of this column has written to ask about the qualifications of candidates for the Alaska Legislature and the pro- cedure for becoming a candidate.
 A candidate for either the House or the Senate must first of all have the qualifications of an elector in Alaska. That is. he or she must be a citizen of the United States, must be at least 21 years of age, and must be able to read and write in the English language.
 In addition, the candidate shall have been a resident and an in- habitant in the division from which he is elected for at least two years prior to the time of his election" !"
 The Election Laws of the Terri. tcry are somewhat contradictory concerning the method for becom- ing a candidate. In one place it says: "All candidates for. elective Territorial or divisional offices. shall be nominated in a primary election by direct vote of the peo- pie. :"
 Elsewhere in the law there. is a provision for independent candi- dates who may bypass the primary election and have their names plac- cd on the ballot in the general el- ection only That procedure will be detailed later.
 As for the nomination in the pri- mary election, the law provides Any person who is a member of a political party and desires to be- come a candidate of that party for any elective office shall, on or be- fore the first day of February, be- fore the date of the primary elec- tion, make, under oath, and file a declaration of candidacy, which shall contain the name, address and voting precinct of the candidate and statement that he is a quail flied elector in such precinct; that he is a member of the political party from which he seeks the nomination; that, at each primary election at which he has voted dur ing the preceding four years, he has voted a ballot of such party or de- clared his utilization to such party and will declare his utilization to such party at the coming primary election and intends to vote for a majority of it's nominees at the general election which follows; that, if nominated and elected he will support the principles of such party as set forth in it's last national platform, and it's platform for Alaska adopted during the preced- ing two years"
 The Form For this Declaration of Candidacy is set out in the AL aska Compiled Laws, Annotated, Sec. 38-4-2, page 994.
 The law also provides, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent one who has not voted at any primary election during the preceding four years from becoming candidate in any primary elec- tion."
 In addition to the above declara- tion, the candidate must, at least 25 days before the election, file written oath of qualifications with the Territorial Canvassing Board at Juneau.
 If the candidate fulfills all of these requirements, his name will appear on the ballot for the pri- mary election, which is held on the fourth Tuesday of April in even- numbered years. And if he is nom- mated in the primary, his name ----------------

GRIDIRON DINNER.

AT the Gridiron Dinner tonight
I spoke to Gov. Dewey about Pal
estine and posed to him the ques-
ton Of getting non-partisan action
on this question, which I said was
a matter Of the deepest concern to
me in terms Of the security of the
Nation. The Governor said he
agreed in principle but that ii
was a difficult matter to get re-
suits on because of the intem-
perate attitude of the Jewish
people who had taken Palestine
as the emotional symbol, because
the Democratic Party would not
be willing to relinquish the ad-
yantages of the Jewish vote. He
said he had become very cynical
about entering into "gentlemen's
agreements" after his experience
IN the 1914 campaign, when he
said he had a clear agreement
with FDR not to bring the ques-
ton of the use of force by the
United Nations. and the Alneri-
can participation in the use OF
such force. into that campaign

there was a feeling among most
Republicans that the Demo-
cratic Party had used the Pal
eStine question politically, and
the Republicans felt they were
entitled to make similar use of
the ISSUE" Senator Vanden-
berg himself had tried to keep
aloof from the matter, but he
quoted Harold Stassen's re-
mark, eff Republicans were to
cooperate on foreign policy
they would have to be in on the
takeoff as well as in the crash

find Gov. Dewey even less en-
couraging.)
