This was the year OF

also was the year when
Frank Sinatra panned rock

was phony, rancid and i'm

The crooner fortunately
was out of the country
when he uttered such
heresy.
At q time when pub
locations are naming men
of the year. women of the
year, events of the year
and other Solemn-Sound-
ing titles, TEEN decided
to take a quick backward
look at 1851 teen-age
year in review.

JUNEAU MUSEUM WILL GET CAPE WORN BY SEWARD

JUNEAU-A handsome black wool broadcloth cape worn by Secretary of State William Henry Seward will be presented to the Alaska Historical Library and Museum on Alaska Day at Sitka.
 Gov. Mike Stepovich announced that the cape, worn many years by the man responsible for the purchase of Alaska, was given to the National Park Service a year ago by Mrs. Arthur M. Chichester of Washington, DC.
 The weH-preserved cape mea- sures 45 inches from the top of the black velvet collar down the back and features two silver but tons. When it arrived at the gov ernor's office it smelled heavily of mothballs. A quick inspection proved that the 90 or more years have not harmed the coat in any way.
 There was no trace of moths. and the cloth appeared as good as 1t was the last time Seward fore it.

Family of Five Picked Up After Forced Landing

ANCHORAGE, R-An Anchor age dentist, his wife and their three children whose plane was forced down 90 miles northeast of here Thursday night were picked up unharmed Friday.
 The five were Dr. and Mrs. C. J. Pearson and their children ranging in age from 10 months to four years. They were on the first leg of a flight to Miami, Fla. f The plane was reported missing Thursday night and a search was started at daylight. They had in tended to fly from Anchorage to Northway Junction, 400 miles to the southeast.
 They were spotted Friday after noon 90 miles northeast of here on a ridge near a small lake. The planes landing gear was damaged but footprints led away from the plane and Dr. Pearson soon was spotted waving to rescue craft.
 An Air Force helicopter picked the family up and returned it to Elmendorf Air Force Base. All five were reported in good condi- ton.
 Their plane was single engine Cessna 180. Dr. Pearson is an ex- perienced pilot, used to flying in Alaskan weather and terrain. It is not known what forced the plane down.

 The club voted against sending the band to the Tournament of Roses in Pasadena, pointing out the increased educational value of the music educators meeting.
 At the conference the band will play 35 minutes. Criticism and talks by clinicians are also includ- ed in the agenda.

Sailor and girl were riding on horseback out in the country. As they stopped for rest, the horses rubbed necks affectionately.
 'Ah, me-" said the sailor, "that's what I'd like to do."

HONG KONG. May IL R.-
Red China has lifted its Bamboo

beset by unemployment. food
shortages, conflicts among the
masses and paralyzing bureau
cracy.
In a series Of frank disclos-
ures in the official press and
over Peiping Radio in recent
days. the Peiping regime has
admitted that the threat OF
famine hangs over much Of the
country in the wake Of last
years floods. drought and the
disastrous Typhoon Wanda
Foodstuffs, particularly pork,
are short. For the first time in
many months some foreign ships
calling at Chinese ports have
left with empty holds because
there was nothing to export.
Much Of the unemployment is
a by-product Of last years ca
lamities. Thousands Of peas
ants, unable TO exc out a living.
have swarmed to the cities in
search Of jobs. Bad personnel
