Real Alaskans Real Alaskans These two natives of Point Barrow, Alaska, will appear on the stage at the Bandbox theater before each showing of the thrilling motion picture, "Tundra," beginning Friday. The comely lady muffled in parka and furs is Miss Jean Dempster, and the Alaskan huskies is Nanook, daughter of the lead dog, Klondike, which mushed with Admiral Byrd. Blizzard, another dog not shown here, will also appear on the stage. Both animals, three- quarter wolf, play roles in the great animal picture. Miss Dempster has trained them to howl at her bidding.
