again, at Nulato.
Pilot Mirow of the Mirow Air Ser
vice is busy changing from wheels
to skiis and is scheduled for a flight
to Fairbanks as soon as weather
permits. Joe Walsh and Chas.
O’Leary will be passengers.

wheels to skiis today on their Trav
elair cabin plane at Nome. Several

ay for Nome. Pilot Jones was due
to have left Monday but the stormy
weather caused a postponement and
| Pilot Robbins was due to take off

ter, were several skiing parties dur

; heavy snowfall during Christmas

fun in that popular outdoor sport.
Holmes Picture
To Be At Dream
(Continued From Page One)
thor and creator of “Sherlock Hol
mes” was asked how he came to
write the stories that attained such
widespread interest.
“I was quite a young doctor at
the time,” he said. “I had, of course
a scientific training and was used
! frequently to read detective stories.
It always annoyed me, how in the
old fashioned detective stories the
detective always seemed to get his
result by chance, or stumbled on his
conclusion by accident.
“That did not seem quite playing
the game—that he was unable to
state the reasons for his conclusions.
I began to think about this, about
turning scientific methods on to the
work of detection.
“I used, as a student, to have an
old professor who was extraordin
ary at diagnosis. He would look at
a patient and make a diagnosis of
the patient’s disease, also of the pat-,
ients’ nationality, occupation and
other points entirely by his power
of observation. So naturally I tho’t
if a scientific man like him came into
the detective business he would do
these things he would get the thing
by building it up scientifically.
“Having once conceived that line
of thought, you can weU imagine
that I had a new idea of the detec
tive and one that interested me to
work out. I thought of a hundred
little dodges, a hundred little touch
es by which he could build up his
conclusions and I began to write
stories along those lines.”
One of the best stories that came
from Doyle’s pen is the one depict
ed in “Sherlock Holmes,” the Fox
picture coming Friday to the Dream
Theatre, with Clive Brook appear
ing in the role of the great crimin
ologist.
In this story, Holmes, for the first
time in his exciting career, finds
himself enjoying an actual romance
with a beautiful girl. This role is
enacted by Mariam 'Jordan, a Lon
don stage favorite who came to pic
tures from Broadway, her film de
but being made in “Six Hours to
Live,” opposite Warner Baxter and
John Boles.
Other notables from the English
sjage playing roles in the picture
are Ernest Torrence, Reginald Owen
Alan Mowbray, Herbert Mundin,
Montague Shaw, Arnold Lucy and
Brandon Hurst. The direction is by
Willian K. Howard.
