Present “Born Yesterday”!
Here on April 29th
“Born Yesterday” being pre-1
sented here on April 29th by the
University of Alaska Workshop
under the auspices of the Rotary
Club and the'Home Arts Club is
the hilarious story of a big time
profiteer who brings his dumb
blonde with him on a trip he
makes to Washington for the
purpose of bribing a Senator or
so. Finding that his ex-chorus
girl companion lacks sufficient |
I brains for the social life of the j
! capitol to which he has elevated.
I her, the former junk dealer hires!
ja tutor to smarten her up. To;
! his dusmay, his dumb doll learns
i too much. For one thing, she
■ learns that she doesn’t have to
take his brow beating. Foiling
! his plans to corrupt honorable
senators, she deserts her mink
coat provider for the man who
i has taught her the meaning of the
j Bill of Rights.
Tickets will be on sale next
i week to defray the cost of trans
portation of the players, it has
i been announced.

Head of Alaska
Methodist U. to he
Chosen Next Week
PORTLAND, UP\ — The presi
dent of the still-to-be-built Alas
ka Methodist University may be
elected at a meeting of the board
of trustees at Seattle April 24
25.
Bishop Raymond Grant of
Portland, chairman of the board,
said today the selection commit
tee would report at that time,
and “we could make a selection
then.”
He said he understood the list
of names to be recommended had
been cut down to five, three of
whom have been interviewed by
the selection committee and the
other two of whom will be inter
viewed at Seattle before the
board meeting.
The university will be built at
Anchorage on a site to be dedi
cated June 29.
The site dedication, Bishop
Grant said, will attract 140 lay
leaders of Methodism, at least
one of them from each Confer
ence of the Church in the United
States.
Construction will start only
after two million dollars in cash
is at hand, the Bishop said.
More than one million and a
half has been paid in, he said, and
there are pledges for substantial
ly more than the sum needed to
get construction under way.
