Voice of the North
 ng Verse

There is much written these days about Alaska and it's beau ties and hopes for statehood. Now C. H. Duckworth adds his poetic voice to a discussion of Americas northernmost outpost in a new volume of verse, THE CALL OF ALASKA. It has been published by Exposition Press of New York at S2.50.
 MT. Duckworth has written a collection of verse which shows an intense interest and apprecia- tlon of nature, as nature must be known to men who live long in the lonely North, rugged and end lessly vast. and at once intimate and splendid.
 C. H. DuckWorth was born in Swanton, Maryland. He has lived and travelled over much of Am erica, and today lives in Seward.

The Frontiersman
Seward, Alaska
 To Entertain
 Seward, Nebraska

A cultimation of two years planning will materialize May 24 when the Capitol Stage Line bus pulls out of Seward, Nebraska, headed for Seward, Alaska.
 Aboard will be the Seward bas- ketball team, Coach Ralph Bow
 master and ten Seward citizens who also wish to make the trip.
 This isn't just spur of the moment, idea, but something that has been in the planning for two years. Last summer Harold Davis son of Seward, Nebraska took his family over the Alaska Highway to Seward Alaska to see what the problems involved would be. Following his findings, various committees went to work to raise money.
 There have been no donations. The boys have helped earn the money by holding square dances, bowling tournaments and many other special events. Newspapers from coast to coast, Stars and Stripes and two major TV pro- grams have helped promote the idea. A photographer from large weekly magazine is expected to make the trip with the Nebras- kans.
 During the weeks stay in Alas ka, there will be three basketball games, softball contest, bowl ing match and a deep sea fishing trip. Banquets are planned by the Chamber of Commerce. Elks, Lions and the Episcopal Church. Other entertainment will be fur nished by several Seward, Alaska civic organizations.
 Plans call for the Alaskan team to invade Seward, Nebraska sometime next year by chartered plane.

Harry (Buddy) Campbell, son of MT. and Mrs. Harry Campbell will make his second trip outside to National Boy Scout Jamboree when he leaves the Valley June 16.
 The 167year-old youth has been earning his own trip money, saw ing his earnings for about year. Buddy said this week that his ex- penses will run around $650 for the seven week trip. Some of this amount will be used in the purchase of Alaskan souvenirs to be used for swaps and sales with Stateside scouts. He also taking along a collection of bear teeth, claws and pieces of fur to use in swaps.
 Leaving Palmer June 16, he will join Anchorage and Fair banks scouts in Anchorage for the flight to Seattle. From there, their itinerary will include four week tour of II Western states, with stops at all principal points of interest, climaxed by their ar rival at the site of the mammouth gathering of scouts from all over America near Los Angeles, Cali fornia.
 Although Buddy has earned much of his required amount, he said this week he is still looking for few odd jobs to earn a little additional spending money. Any one who could use Buddy's ser vices after school or on Saturday is asked to contact his dad at

Home Demonstration
 Notes
By Marylou Rideout National Home Demonstration Week, May 3-9

It is known that certain move ments in our country cause last ing and important changes in the lives of the people, Home Demon stration Work is one of those, and if you want proof, attend a Home makers club, and take part in the clubs project and social activities.
 An annual activity of all clubs is the observance of Home Dem onstration Week. No better theme could be thought of for this years than last years theme, ''Today's Home Builds Tomorrow's World" !" During the week perhaps all of us should take stock of our HOME. As expressed by one farm woman, 'The home is the foundation of nation, and when that home is managed by a well-informed homemaker who cooks well-bal- anced meals, clothes her family with well-fitted garments, and furnishes her home with care and good taste, we have a strong foun- dation. If within this home the rights of each are respected and we teach and live love of home, country, fellow men, and God, we have the homemaker's ultimate goal. A nation with these homes will be prosperous, respected by other nations, and blessing to the world"
 As a social activity next week, Homemaker's clubs are giving tea, to which everyone is invited. Homemaker club members are urged to attend and bring friend or two-especially newcomers to our community. The tea is to be given at the United Protestant Church, Tuesday, May 5th from l:30 pm. to 3 pm. A program is planned for two o'clock. There will be an exhibit of club pro- jects, handicraft and hobbies. Come early, meet and talk with others, hear the program, see the exhibit ad partake of the fine re- treatments.
 The food and serving will be in charge of four clubs. The Butte and Riverbend members are re- minded to bring small cakes and cookies. The members of the Sourdough and Glacier View Clubs are to bring tea" sand Wiches. Mrs. Martin Olson and | the Wasilla Homemakers are in charge of the table decorations.

 Butte Homemakers
 The regular Butte Homemak- ers' meeting was held at the George Plumley home instead of the designated place, Butte Hall, on Thursday, April 16. The at- tendance was good in spite of the muddy side roads.
 The coming Homemakers' tea to be held in the basement of the United Protestant Church May 5, was discussed. Each Butte member has been assigned two dozen tea cakes or cookies to be taken to the tea.
 Lou Hanks showed the very in- teresting rural telephone picture which spoke for itself, showing telephone needs for every one. It is hoped that enough people will sign up so the possible loans may be available to the Valley this year.
 Lou Sandvik and Diana Me Kechnie are hotesses for the May meeting to be held at the Sand vik home.

Queries, Few Answers
A Girl Wants to Know Some Things
About TeIevision and Its Critics
By Harry Macarthur

Margaret L. Hake Of Syra-
cuse IN. W has driven some
of the Nations radio-TV edi-
tors to think this past week.
Miss Hake would like to have
some questions answered. but
it isn't as simple as that. There
has not been a clearer demon
stration in some time Of the
fact that it is a lot easier to ask
questions than to provide
sensible answers.
She writes: "I am attempt
ing to find out just how much
or how little TV critics, in a
representative sample Of
American newspapers, are do
ing to encourage the use of TV
as q medium of education and
public service. I feel that my
study can not be complete un-
til I ascertain the critics atti-
tude toward televiSion in gen.
eral, educational TV. and his
job as a critic"
This seems fairly simple.
Miss Hake gets down to spe-
cific cases, though, in her
appended list of questions.
"How do you define your
duties as a TV critic?" she
asks. 1t is a safe bet that no
TV columnist ever awoke in
the morning expecting to have
to come up with an answer
for that before the day was
done. Miss Hake probably
will get as many different
answers as questionaires re-
turned.
A Simple Duty
She may read some high
flown thoughts about a duty
to better broadcasting. The
very use of the word duty
somehow inspires a picture of
leaping on a white horse and
charging up New York's Madi-
son avenue, spearing a veri-
table kebab of advertising men
on a lance. 1t has connota-
tions of holding the fort, which
implies protecting some one
from something.
In truth, the duty Of a news
paper TV critic is the same as
that Of any other newspaper
man. It is his-let's use a
better word-job to inform, as
clearly, as truthfully and as
completely as he possibly can.
If he can do it entertainingly
with any consistency, if he
knows someone. or If he simply
is around long enough, he gets
a byline and becomes a
columnist.
The definition still holds
when the TV critic Is review
ing a new show or complaining
about studio audiences. He is

I remember seeing Marlene
Dietrich in 1.-THE Blue Angel"
She was plump, but seductive
in those long black stockings
and short panties spanned by
long garters. In Germany
she was an entertainer in
night clubs and on the musical
stage. Hollywood slimmed her
down, made her a great. ex-
otic, glamorous star. She
started the craze for slacks
because she couldn't be both

pictures. "You can shoot me
this way or not at ALL" she
told the press agents. But as
recently as 1851. the most
glamorous grandma in the
world stole the spotlight at
the Academy Awards with a
black dress slit above the knee
showing her famous legs.

That may not be an an
Swer, but it is closer to one
than Miss Hake will, or should,
get to another query.
What Is your favorite TV
show?" she asks bluntly. This,
like the one about the chicken
and the egg, is unanswerable.
It is similar to asking if you
like a rare sirloin steak better
than a red-haired girl with
green eyes. The answer is that
each has its place and in its
place is better than the other.
There isn't any "favorite TV

Definition Wanted
How do you define educa-
tional and public service Twp"
Miss Hake wants to know
next. AS the late Wendell
Willkie did not say, I am not
very glad you asked that ques-
ton, Miss Hake. If you really
have to have an answer, how
ever, an educational program
is one that educates and a
public service program is one
done in the public interest.
All broadcasterS, of course, are
supposed to operate all the
time Gin the public interest.

To answer the question with
another question, is an educa-
tional or public service pro-
gram less so because it Is
sponsored? I have been TV-
educated about some things
by DR.. Roy K. Marshall, who
was trying to sell me an auto
mobile at the time.
It is a public service. let us
say. to televise a presidential
Inauguration. One network in
terrupts the parade at inter-
walls for messages from a spon-
sor, the other does not. Both
show the same ceremonies. Is
this a public service broadcast
on the latter network, not one
on the former? If you are not
careful about your identifica-
ton system you find the full
limitations Of a politician listed
as a public service while talk
by Bishop Fulton j. Sheen is
not.

HOLLYWOOD.

Every few years in Holly
wood a new face flashes across
the film horizon. Not neces-
sarily a good actress. But she
has that old magic that spells
stardom plus. Marilyn Monroe
is now sitting on the throne
left vacant by Jean Harlow in
1897. The eight other most
fascinating women in Holly
wood history. are, in my opin-
ion, Gloria Swanson, Pola
Negri, Clara Bow, Marlene
Dietrich, Greta Carlo, Mary
Pickford, Joan Crawford and
Carole Lombard.
Mary Pickford was the first
of the great stars. Before Mary,
you didn't know who the lead
ing lady was. But every one
wanted the name Of the little
girl with the golden curls. And
so the movie star system was
born. They called her Amer
ica's Sweetheart" Crowds col
lected wherever she appeared
and her trademarks, curls
and pinafore, were as well
known then as Monroe's state
Of undress is today. The pub
lie wanted Mary only to por-
tray heartbreaking young teen
ayers. who faced great hard
ship with a brave little smile.
(Shirley Temple was to play
these roles later, but in the
child bracket) Mary played
teen-agers until she was nearly
30 years old. Before she mar
ried Douglas Fairbanks in
1920 after a three-year court
ship. their romance was kept
secret because, although sepa-
rated from their mates, they
were still married. Shades Of
Rita Hayworth! Mary and
Doug ruled as King and Queen
of Hollywood for Is years be-
fore they divorced and Mary
married the boyish bandleader,
Buddy Rogers.

Spillane reader.
It is essentially a two-char-
acter narrative. The other
one Of these is Antigone's
uncle. Creon. He Is the brutal.
despotic King of Thebes and
the order that proves his evil
nature is that Antigone's re-
bellious brother shall not be
buried after being killed in
battle. Let him lie there.
Creon orders the Thebans
under pain Of death, until the
birds and the carrion strip his
bones. And. after that. until
he becomes one with the dust
of the field on which he died.
Antigone Rebels
Against this, Aptigone re-
bels more fiercely than the boy
whose body is committed to
outrage. She buries the dead
Polynieces, for which she is
sentenced to the slow death of
entombment in a cell of stone
erected on the site of her
crime" Here she dies but
not until Creon's only son and
his wife choose to die with her
rather than live in a world
ruled by so inhuman a king.
Spillape'S Biff Elliott would
not last two minutes against
either Creon or Antigone.
But it is not with sheer
blood-curdling plot that Soph-
ocleS is concerned in Anti
gone" Aware as he is of the
wisdom of making his crea-
lures hair-raising types, his
deep dramatic purpose is to say
something about the nature of
the gods. humans and political
institutions.
Through his heroine, he in
SiStS that man is the creation
of a power infinitely greater
than man and morally subject
to this power beyond any duty
he owes to kings or to states.
More than mans dignity or the
states authority is involved in
a civilized disposal of her
brothers body and Antigone is
just the girl to prove it.
It's Really Simpler
AS compared with contem-
porary drama, Catholic Uni
versity's production makes it
clear that Sophocles' play. for
all its moral tone, is simpler
and more lucid.
1t represents the pure distil-
lation of the dramatic and that
is the way it comes of in the
perform ance directed by
Father Gilbert v. Hartke.
These 2,500-year-old Greeks
