It's over now, nothing but a
memory, and a very pleasant mem
ory at that. The Eagle Mask Ball
held last Saturday evening in the
large Eagle Hall.
The large portion of the danc
ing populace of Nome, danced to
the tunes of the Nome Orchestra,
and laughed at the antics of the
hums and clowns.
There was a large variety of
costumes, many new ones, which
showed many hours of thought
and work. A few had been bro’t
forth from the trunks marked
castaways and with a little trim
ming won their wearers some prize.
There were many bad guesses
as to Who’s who and many gasps
of surprise as the mask was lift
ed from some of the prize win
ners, reveal'ng faces not guessed
at.
Henry C.umm brought forth the
winners, while Alvin Polet an
nounced them.
The nice assortment of prizes
donated by the merchants of Nome
were given as follows:

It fits 1‘ke a glove! That's John
Wayne’s featured role In “Girls De
mand Excitement," which starts at
the Dream Theatre, Sunday.
* It is a college picture and Wayne
is naturally collegiate, since he
formerly attended the Univerai'y
of Southern California. Howev
er, he has no opportunity to dis
play his widely known football ah
ility in this picture for this pro*
duot'on is one in which the hero
does not win the game for hi.*

play as there is no football game.
Incidentally, Wayne, which is
his real first and the last part of

(Duke) Morrison. His screen
name was bonferred upon him by
D’rector Raoul Walsh when he
was picked for the loading role of
“The Big Trail” thru which h»“
