'Bride for Sale'
At (apifol Theatre
Sunday - (Not Really)
Revolving around a business
woman’s business-like efforts to
pick herself a husband, Crest Pro
ductions’ "Bride for Sale" co-stars
Claudette Colbert, Robert Young
and George Brent in a fun-filled of
fering with a Manhattan locale.
The comedy opens at the Capitol
Theatre tomorrow.
The film presents Brent as the
head of a big accounting firm who
hires Miss Colbert as an income tax
expert. But his satisfaction at the
way she does her job is tempered
when he discovers that she took it
solely for the purpose of finding a
prospective bridegroom with a thriv
ing income.
To teach her a lesson, Brent per
suades his wealthy pal Young to
pose as a client, get Miss Colbert
interested in him, and then turn
her down cold. The scheme is fine
in theory, but it doesh’t work out
as expected. The complications get
hilarious as both men find them
selves battling for the lady's atten
tions.
Resolution Passed
To Reclassify
Alaskan Wafers
The first concrete step toward an
attempt to obtain n reclassification
of Southeastern Alaska waters to
be designated as “inland waters”
was taken by the Juneau Chamber
of Commerce yesterday.
The Chamber passed a resolution
requesting a Congressional hearing
on the subject to be held in Alaska
and to enact legislation to reclas
sify the waters.
The resolution is being sent to all
Chambers of Commerce in the pan
handle for action.
"The United States Coast Guard
in enforcing its regulations,” the
resolution reads, “has applied the
much more stringent coastal
waters inspection regulations to
most of the waters of Southeastern
Alaska, although similarly situ
ated waters off the seacoasts of
the various states are regarded by
the Coast Guard as inland waters.”
The document points out that the
development Of the area suffers as
a result of this situation. . . ap
plies ' on of such regulations has
res..,, .-d in hindering the develop
ment of business, industry and com
merce, and placed insurmountable
financial burden upon small opera
tors.”
It points out the isolation of ports
here and the lack of sizeable dry
dock facilities.”
Aflorney General

Attorney General J. Gerald Wil

'Willie' Provides
Fun lor All at
20th Century Theatre
Sparkling, fresh and witty, John
Ford's "When Willie Comes March
ing Home," which opened at the
20th Century Theatre, is as great a
, triumph for that master director in
the comedy field as he has long I
been accustomed to having in the
dramatic field.
With Dan Dailey to expertly enact
the title role, Ford has made an
unusual and delightful film for 20th
Century-Fox and for the untold
audiences that should find it irre
sistible
“When Willie Comes Marching
Home” has a taste, and a talent, for
fun-making. Beginning with an
earnest small town lad who is first
in his group to volunteer when war
breaks out, it goes on to relate his
difficulties in getting into the shoot
ing war. A first-class gunner, in
stead of being shipped directly over
seas as he had supposed would hap
pen, he is stationed to teach gun
nery at an airfield adjoining his own
home town!
Months and months go by. The
rest of the boys get into the shoot
ing war; poor Willie Kluggs is
safely, comfortably at home. He
tries and tries to get transferred
across, but it’s no go. The town’s
first here becomes its black sheep.
Word spreads that Willie’s gold
bricking to beat the band.

ent's allowances, included in the

iod for last year, John T. Mc

tor, stated. The 1951 totals were
$1,414,859 compared to $2,843,223

Wash-Out Closes
Alaska Highway
At Mile 1130
The Alaska Highway is closed
temporarily between Haines Junc
tion and the border, according to
word received this morning by
W. J. Niemi, chief engineer of the
Alaska Road Commission.
Niemi said his information said
heavy rains have swollen the Don
jek river and washed out a trestle
at Mile 1130.
He said that A. F. Ghiglione,
commissioner of his agency and
James Davis, director of Territor
ies and Insular Possessions from
Washington, D. C., are traveling
down the highway and were on
the other side of the wash-out
when the trestle went out. It was
expected, however, the Canadians
would transport them to Haines
by tonight and Niemi expects to
have a plane pick them up there.
