CITY BRIEFS Alaskans Catch Breath; Plan Solving Of Problems JUNEAU. Alaska (AP) - Alas kans caught their breath today after tossing the wildest celebra tion since gold rush days, and looked ahead to a problem-packed future as the nation's biggest state. They poured it on last night, with whistles, sirens, horns, bells and fireworks as they cheered news of the Senate's passage of the statehood bill. Street dances followed parades. In Sitka, one time capital of Russian Alaska, drinks were on the house. There seemed to be no possibili ty that either President Eisen hower or Alaskans would reject statehood now that Congress has approved it. But before Alaska's Iceland was first colonized by Irish monks in the year 875. It belonged to Denmark; became a free republic in 1H44. KILLED CREMONA, Italy (UP1) -Gravedigger Luigi Bonvini, 66. was killed Monday while setting a tombstone in place.

(AP) Private memorial services for Dr. Louise Pound will be held today at Wyuka Cemetery. Dr. Pound, a noted educator and sportswoman, died Saturday at the age of 85. For many years the was a University of Nebraska faculty member. Lawmaker Asks Bypass WASHINGTON (AP) Rep. Stewart L. Udall (D-Ariz) pro posed today that the House by pass its Labor Committee and consider direct a Senate-passed labor .control bill. I personally am trying to form a bipartisan front to urge that ap proach be taken, Udall told a reporter. He is a member of the Labor Committee. A two-thirds vote of the House would be re quired to take up the bill without prior committee consideration "There's no chance at all" for the bill, Udall said, if it is sent to the committee for hearings and other routine procedure this late in the congressional session. Other members of the commit tee have expressed similar views, but Udall said that under the pro cedure he is considering "I think chances (of passage) are better than most people think." The Senate measure, which grew out of Senate rackets inves ligations last year, is aimed chief ly at curbing thefts of labor funds and safeguarding the rights of union members. Among other pro visions, it would require public disclosure of union finances through reports to the secretary of labor: and would require se cret ballot election of 'union offi cers for limited terms. Cheryl Wins Court Praise HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Actress Lana Turner's 14-year-old daugh ter, Cheryl, was praised in a ju venile court transcript on file to day for showing courage in re fusing to assume anotner name to avoid publicity in me slaying oi Jonnny aiompanaio Apru i. Parts of the transcript of April 24 hearing before Superior Judge Allen T. Lyncn were re vealed Monday in the D i s t r i c t Court of Appeals where Cheryl's father, restaurateur Steptian Crane, has filed an appeal to a ruling making the girl a ward uf the court. Lvnch was ouoted as expressing concern that publicity would "be heaped on her (Cheryls) neaa everv time she walks out me door." He suggested the tall, at tractive girl might attend some school under an assumef. name What would you think about that. Chervl? the wrist asked Cheryl said. "No" and indicated she would rather slay in Southern Ca hfornia and fight it out.' "Thats courage. Judge Lyncn said. star is added to the flag, a monu menial task faces the territory in preparing for actual admission to the Union. Celebrants who have fought and dreamed of statehood for the vast territory set aside thoughts of the difficult period ahead and toasted ictory. At Fairbanks, the Chena River turned gold. Wildly happy resi dents poured dye into the stream near where one of Alaska s big gold strikes lured pioneers and sourdoughs at the turn of the century. At Skagway, the gateway to the big klondike gold strike of 1898 housewives paraded in the streets wearing embroidered badges that proclaimed; - Bigger than Texas, better than California. Alaska God's country." At Anchorage, a Huge Donlire blazed long through the overnight twilight in the Land of the Mid nights Sun. In every city of the territory. and in its scattered villages and towns, the celebration went on. Not everywhere, however, was the merry making as loud or spontaneous as it was at Anchor age and Fairbanks, centers for years of the statehood movement At Juneau, the capital and seat of conservative position to state hood, hundreds celebrated and cheered as a replica of the Liberty Bell was struck 49 times and as scores danced in the street under bursting fireworks and aerial dis plays. But a few residents grumbled and some protested that hardships and higher taxes were in store. Even among long-time oppo nents of statehood, however, there was a general feeling that the past should be forgotten and that Alas kans should unite in the job ahead.
