CRJTTKB CHELAN BRINGS
V. OF W. EXPEDITION
< ! -
i
Aboard the Cutter Chelan, an
chored in the Nome roadstead to- j
day are the three members of the
University of Washington oceano- .
' graphic expedition which left Seat
tle July 18 to travel north to do
Research work on the Bering Sec.
Dr. h. D. Phifer. Professor Alex
ander, and C. A. Barnes from the
Oceanographic Department of the
University of Washington make up
•ihe party.
J Their purpose on the trip Is to
discover the distribution of mic- <
Toscoplc plant life, the chemical
nature and chemical composition
of the water, and the contour and
composition of the Bering Sea bot
tom, as well as to study the ocean
current. Thus far the party • has
collected samples which will need
scientific study before any conclu
sion can be reached In regard to
them.
Going north from Nome a few
days ago, the Chelan made period
ical stops to allow for soundings
to be taken and samples of sea
water to be collected. Stops were
made at nearly all the Islands on
the way, including the King and
Diomede Islands and St. Lawrence
Day. The Chelan skirted the Si
berian coast as far up as Cape
Serds before returning here.
When she leaves here the cutter
will again go to St. Lawrence Is
land, from there to St. Mathew’s
Island, then to Nunivak and Bog
oslof Islands, and will return to
her base, Unalaska.
The members of the expedition
expect to complete their research
and return to Seattle in October.

DCN BRADSTREET REVIEW
(By The Associated Press)
NEW YORK. Aug. 4, CUT.^nt
indications point to a fall in trade
but not as much as that of laSt
year, and on a more orderly has-,
is, devoid of extreme fluctuations
which characterised that period,
said the Dun Bradstreet Review.
The review further stated that tho
maintenance of retail distribution
above the comparative level of a
year ago was one of the most re
assuring factors in the present sit
uation.
GENEVIEVE TOBIN
TURNS THE TABLES
Genevieve Tobin, the interviewed,
at last becomes the interviewer.
Throughout her years of star
dom ,on the stage, as well as her
more recent oareer as a Univer
sal featured player, the blonde act
ress has been much sought by
Interviewers, and has had many
enjoyable hours with various re
presentatives of the press. And
now, in “Up for Murder,” UniVer
sal’a newspaper drama whjoh
comes to the Dream Theatre on
Sunday, the tables are reveled,
tor the fair Genevieve is seen in
the picture as a reporter on a
metropolitan daily.
“Interviewers,” says Miss To
bin, '*have always fascinated me.
I have been captivated by their
Interesting work, and I always
hoped that I might some day have
the opportunity of Interviewing
someone. And now It has come—
and I have thoroughly enjoyed
myself. All through the picture
I am a reporter. And my past
years of experience with Inter- |
viewers have taught he Just how ■
It Is done, so that I am able t > |
act more like a real reporter than I
If A were under the necessity of !
Just imagining how it ought to be ,
done.’’
