SHALLENBERGER SAYS TURK
CANT COPE WITH GREEKS
ATHENS, July 25—(Greek Offi
cial Agency >— Belief that Mustapha
Kemal Pasha, Turkish Nationalist
leader, would be unable successfully
to resist the Greek offensive in
Asia Minor was expressed today by
Major Shallenberger, United States
Military Attache at Athens, in an
interview printed by the newspaper
Kosnaos.
Major Shallenberger, who has fol
lowed the Asia Minor operations
closely, is quoted by the Greek
paper as expressing high praise for
the Greek forces, particularly the i
Greek infantry, “which has dis- -
cinguished itself by long uninter-'
rupted marches, followed immed-!
lately by fighting with irresistible
daring.”
“Mestapha Kemal saw a rupture
in the Greek center." said the major
according to Kosmos. “His avowed
plan was good but he did not count
on the Greek general staff, which
planned the offensive. Kemal found \
the' Greeks perfectly prepared for i
his attack and the result was dis
astrous to him.
“Three of his divisions were en-1
tirely annihilated. One of them was .
a picked division of 'Caucasians.
The commander and chief of staff
of the Forty-first Division were
taken prisoners.
“The Turkish losses were incon
testably very important. The Turks
lost the best part of their army in
killed wounded and prisoners, to
say nothing of the deserters, per
' haps even more numerous, who
thre-w down their guns and fled to
the mountains.
“Undoubtedly, the Greeks could
have made more prisoners if their
distances from the fleeing Turkish
troops had not been so great, if
Kemal had not retired in time from
Kutala, or if he had shown a dis
position to make the battle there a
decisive one.
“The Kemalists today find them
selves sixty kilometers from Eski
Shebr on a broken line which cannot
be their line of defense. The prin
cipal Kemalist line of defense is
100 kilometers west of Angora, on
a mountain line.”
t
Asked if he thought the Turkish
leader would be able to resist
further attack by receiving rein
forcements, Major Shallenberger re
plied :
“I don't believe so. Kemal already
has used all the troops at his dis
posal on other fronts, and he can
not leave the Caucasus and Cilicia
absolutely defenseless."
VIOLA DANA MAKES BIG HIT
IN NEW SUNDAY FEATURE
Viola Dana, petit, clever and very
pretty, delighted a large audience
at the Coliseum on Sunday night,
as Marcia, the dancer, in “The
Chorus Girl's Romance". It was
a Metro feature, the first of the
new Lathrop circuit to be shown in
Nenana and created a very favor
able impression, auguring well for
the popularity of the Coliseum
under the new arrangement.
Several more features were re-'
ceived from Fairbanks yesterday,
and a shipment of really late Pathes
and popular Goldwyn-Bray Weeklies.
The features include “Lord and
Lady Algz", “Homespun Folks”,
“1.000 to 1”, and “Up the Road
With Sally”.
ine last named feature was the
attraction at the new Fairbanks
theater, in Fairbanks, on Sunday,
where it met with an enthusiastic
reception. The house was packed
The attraction tonight at the
Coliseum will be Constance Tal
madge in “Who Cares?”, a five
reel Selznick feature which ranks
high in movie circles. The program
also will include a late Pathe News,
the first really late one to make its
appearance in Xenana. All of them
will be late from now on—as late
as it is possible for them to be.
considering distance from source of
supply.
“Lord and Lady Algz”, a six
reel feature, will be the attraction
for Thursday.

NENANA FAIRBANKS
FRED CREWE IS IN NENANA
INTRODUCING NEW BOOK
“Poems of Klondyke’s Early Days
and Alaska's Long. White Trail” is
the title of an artistically printed,
profusely illustrated, richly bound
volume of original sourdough verse
from the pen of Fred Crewe, well
known oldtime Northerner, who ar
rived in Nenana on Saturday for
the purpose of introducing the book
in this locality. Sales ran high in
Fairbanks and the indications are
that Mr. Crewe will be able to dis
pose of many of the attractive vol
umes here also.
All of the poems contained in the
volume are based on actual ex
periences of the author, and are
illustrate'd with original pictures of
Northern scenes, most of them never
having been printed before. The
paper used is highly calendared, the
best obtainable, and the volume is
bound in real leather, ornamented
and lettered in gold on the front,
and stamped with a specially made
Forget-Me-Not design on the back.
The book was turned out by a Mil
waukee publishing house, and the
cost of printing and freight to
Alaska was such that no margin of
profit remains with the books selling
at $o.50. Mr. Crewe hopes, however,
to have a second edition printed
more cheaply, the first edition being
used largely for the purpose of in
troduction.
Oldtimers will find the volume
brim full of interest and as a so
venir of the North, it has no equal.
It is especially appropriate as a
gift book, so attractive that none
need hesitate to send copies of it
to friends in the States. It repre
sents the last word in excellence of
printing.
Mr. Crewe is no stranger in Ne
nana. He arrived here in the fall
of 1916 and, unassisted, published
the fiirst two editions of the Nenana
News, and he remained with the
paper throughout the winter, finally
being compelled to give up the work
because of trouble with his eyes.
Mr. Crewe is an oldtime printer,
having worked on the New York
World many years before the intro
duction of typesetting machines. In
Alaska he has devoted most of his
time to mining. He made the trip
into the Interior by way of the
Chilcoot trail and his leading poem
is descriptive of the memorable
stampede.
Mr. Crewe is making his head
quarters at the Portland during his
stay in towm.
Billy Ford returned from the Hot ;
Springs district on Sunday with the j
body of J. L. Anders. The body was j
. ent to Fairbanks on a speeder, es
corted by Deputy Marshal James I
Hagan.
—
Mr. and Mrs. Collins will leave
for the Kantishna district tomorrow, I
going in by way of the overland
route. They expect to winter in the
district.
Jack Marks, well known Fairbanks
tailor, arrived in Nenana, after a
business trip to the Canyon district,
and will be here until Friday, tak
ing orders for made-to-measure
clothing, making his headquarters at
the Cooney hotel during his stay i
here. Jake says he has quit the
automobile business for keeps and
will devote his whole time hereafter
to tailoring.
