Quarterback
BY CARL SELL
Star Staff Writer

Right now, Scotty Glacken of
Bethesda is described as a
wild" football player at Duke
University. However, Blue Devil
sources indicate that Duke
may become wild about Glack-
en- before the current season
! is over.
Glacken, a sophomore who
| played his high school football
at st. Johns, is contesting
Junior Dave Uible for the start
ing quarterback role at Duke.
Uible currently holds the edge,
but Glacken is closing in fast.
Glacken, a member of The
Stars All-Metropolitan team In
1860, alternated with Uible in
last Saturdays 22-14 victory
over South Carolina, Mike
Curtis, All-Atlantic Coast Con-
ference fullback from Rockville,
scored IS points to lead the
victory.
Throws For Touchdown
Scotty, a 5-foot-l0, u.s.
FOUNDER, hit on three Of nine
passes for 80 yards, including
a 15-yard touchdown pass te
End Stan Crisson which gave
the Blue Devils a 1915 lead ir
the third period. Later, an.
other apparent touchdown pas
by Glacken was wiped out BY
a penalty.
Ted Mann, Dukes sports
publicity chief, says Glacker
has to settle down some be-
fore he can take over the con-
trolls of the Blue Devils, who
have won the ACC title three
straight years.

said. The Duke publicist alsC

MARITIME SIDELIGHTS

There were 921 vessels of 1860 gross tons and over in the active ocean, going US. merchant fleet on June l, 1863, according to the Maritime Administration.
 There were 19 government owned and 902 privately owned ships in active service These fig ures did not include privately owned vessels temporarily inac- tive, or government-owned yes sels employed in loading storage grain. They also exclude 23 yes sels in the custody of the Depart ments of Defense, State, and h. terior, and the Panama Canal Company
 The Maritime Administration active fleet remained the same while the inactive fleet decreased by 12. Seven freighters were sold for scrap, 3 freighters were turned back to the Navy, and three gov ernment ships were exchanged to the private fleet, with two ships received from the private fleet. This made a net decrease of II in the total government fleet to 1857. The total US. merchant fleet dropped by 12 ships to total of 2,836.

 WASHINGTON LP - Sen. Barry Goldwater is unique among Pres idential possibilities of recent times. He gives an impression of simple directness without theatrics.
 This, in addition to whatever appeal his ideas may have, prob ably accounts to a great degree for his popularity in the public opin- ion polls.
 Singly or together the hall marks of most candidates since President Franklin D. Roosevelt have been a 3enSe of drama and often of almost fierce conviction, a permanent smile and camera consciousness

 Roosevelt had an enormous sense of drama. Goldwater doesn't seem to have mucf dramatic sense.
 Roosevelt spoke like a father sure of his family. Former Vice President Richard Nixon and New York's Gov. Nelson Rockefeller give an impression of seeking ap- proval.

Anchorage solon Demands Egan Fire Dept. Chief

ANCHORAGE R - Rep Keith Miller, R-Anchorage, contendlng the states youth and adult authori- ty program is in serious Jeopar- dv." has called on Gov. William Egan to fire Health and Welfare Commissioner Levy Browning and two of his subordlnates.
 Miller made his recommenda- tions in a letter to Egan dated Nov. ?. Copies of which he made public here.
 within the past two weeks the former police chief of Juneau, MT. P. L. Stevenson, has been hired by the Department of Health and Welfare as chief of correctional services" he wrote the Governor.
 Yet as far as I know, MT. Se- verson has had no institutional experience whatsoever. How can we expect to develop a coordinated program of youth and adult reha- bilitation without qualified men in the upper echelon.
 'I respectfully submit to you that unless Dr. Browning, MT. Charles Pfeiffer CYAA director), and MT. Stevenson are relieved of their responsibilities and replaced with men who are qualified and who will make decisions, the en- Ire YAA program of ths state will be in serious jeopardy" Miller wrote.

phrasing in his prepared talks that t often gets between him and his listeners.
 Until now this clean-cut, gray haired, determined-jawed Repub- ican from Arizona has had the advantage of not having to talk under pressure in his quest for the nomination.
 He has been running hard - without formally admitting it - but just because this is so he has been able to pick his spots and pace himself: a dinner here. a rally there.
 For GoldWater this kind of poli- tical luxury is coming to an end.
 He'll be under pressure, mental and physical, when he goes into the state primaries: handshaking by the thousands, speech after speech to scrutinizing crowds, and always having to be concerned about his opponent.
 Maybe then Goldwater will be- gin to acquire the same stridency that infects American politicians like a plague.
 And something else will certain ly have to change for him once he formally gets into the race: His solutions for national problems will have to be a lot more spe- cific, if he wants to be convincing.

Requiem for The Bear

Her first skipper on Patrol, was colorful Hell Roarin' Mike Hea- ly, a dynamo of a man with an unpredictable temper. Healy was a good skipper, and he commanded the BEAR for more than nine years, longer than any other. In time, Healy and his ship became legend in the lusty, brawling Ter ritory of Alaska.
 The Bears duties on the Alas- kan Patrol were many. She car ried mail which had accumulated at Seattle during the winter. as we'll as Government agents and supplies. On her trip south from Alaska, she transported Federal prisoners and others whose pres ence in Alaska was undesirable.
 The deck of the BEAR often served as a court where justice was dispensed swiftly but fairly. The BEAR also conducted investiga tions, and undertook crime pre- vention and law enforcement. She and other cutters like her were often the only law in that turbu- lent part of the world. The BEAR also conducted soundings to i'm prove charts of Alaskan waters. and her surgeon furnished medi- cal attention to natives, prospec- tors, missionaries, and Whalers. CTheSe duties are still part of to- days Boring Sea PatrolD
 Not the least of Healy's accom- was the importation of reindeer from Siberia to provide food for the natives who were nev- CT free from the threat of famine. The initial transaction consisted of twelve deer at Senia- vine Strait, Siberia in 1891 and them to Unalaska As Healy reasoned it, the reindeer would also be an excellent source of clothing and transportation The wisdom of this measure was dra- proved few years later during the famous overland trek to save marooned Whalers near Point Barrow.
 Of all the BEARS exploits, none has captured the public imagina- tion more than her Overland Res cue of 1897. It was in the fall of that year that Captain Futile, the BEARS new commander, learned that eight whaling vessels and their crews, totaling about PTS men, were trapped in the ice pack off remote Point Barrow. Alaska.
 The BEAR had only recently re- turned from her Patrol duties, but at the order of the Secretary of the Treasury she went to the res cue. This was the first time that an Arctic voyage was attempted during the winter season.

PART I

The famous old Coast Guard cut
 ter BEAR, veteran of nearly 90
 years service in the far Mort I
 and participant in some of the most
 thrilling sea reScueS of our time, have come to the end of her last voyage in the turbulent waters of the North Atlantic. On Tuesday, March l9, 1863, the gallant old ship went down off the coast of Nova Scotia during an Atlantic storm. Time and the elements have finally done what northern ice and snow failed to do.
 If the BEAR could have chosen her final resting place, and who are we to say that she didn't, it would probably have been these northern waters where she had sailed so often. It was here that she came, shortly after her launch ing in 1873 at the old Scottish ship yard of Dundee and Son. She spent the first ten years of her life getting her sea legs with sailing fleet operating off Newfoundland.
 Worldwide fame came to the BEAR in the early 1880's shortly after the historic Greedy Expedi- tion to the Arctic came to dis asrOus end. The Expedition, un- der the command of the then Lieu tenant Adolphus Washington Gree ly, was one of two groups dis patched to the Arctic to set up a series of observation stations. De- spite elaborately made plans, a series of misfortunes left Greedy and his party stranded in the pit Hess Arctic winter without ada- quate food and clothing.
 To assist the Greedy party, the United States organized a rescue fleet of three ships, consisting of the BEAR. THETIS and ALERT. On June g, 1884, less than two months after her departure, the BEAR sighted the pitiful rem nants of the expedition. For months they had been surviving on rock moss, leather sledding equipment, and whatever small game they could find. Many of the group had either died or gone mad from pri- Those who had survived re. Sembled skeletons. The surgeon accompanying the expedition had committed suicide.
 For while it looked as though the BEARS career was over. Not long after her return from the Greedy rescue, she was declared unfit for further service by the Navy. Then in 1885, she was trans ferred to the Treasury Department for use in Alaskan waters and the Arctic Ocean. That was the begin ming of a 41-year career on the Alaskan Patrol which is unequalled in maritime history.

For the last Is years, this old
source, long dried up, has been
augmented by the Pennell Fund,
the $500, 900 estate of the late Jo-
Seph Pennell, an American print
maker who died in 1925 and left
his worldly goods, including most
of his own prints and their plates,
to the Library to be used in the pur-
chase of prints.
In honor of the first quarter
century of the Funds operation,
the print division now has on ex-
hibition about 100 American prints
made during Pencils most active
years, from 1875 to 1925. The range
is from the copyright prints of
WinslOw Homer to the personal,
lonely views of Edward Hopper.
During this period American
prints became a truly independent
artistic form, thanks largely to the
perfection of photo-mechanical
methods for mass reproduction,
but thanks also to the expert
ments and exhortations of Pennell.
