CAPITOL THEATRE,
M-G-M CELEBRATE
ON NEXT SUNDAY
Juneau’s new theatre, the Capitol,
was opened the previous evening
under most favorable auspices. Lines
of persons formed on the sidewalk
in front of the playhouse to buy
tickets for both first and second
shows, with the result that every
seat downstairs and in the gallery
was occupied at each performance.
The rich, artistic decorations, the
lighting effects and comfortable
chairs drew praiseworthy comment.
The r und details were perfect.
The opening attraction was Metro
Goldwyn-Mayer’s ‘ Let Us Be Gay,”
starring Norma Shearer and Marie
Dressier. That was 20 years ago,
January 15, 1931. Since then the
Capitol Theatne has entertained
untold thousands achieving the rep
utation as the showplace of Juneau.
And, for 20 years Metro-Goldwyn
Mayer pictures have graced the
screen of the Capitol with attrac
tions that have made this studio
the colossus of the motion picture
industry. It is altogether fitting that
this motion picture company and
Juneau’s Capitol Theatre should
join now in celebration of 20 years
of uninterrupted entertainment for
Juneau’s moviegoers.
The one week celebration will be
gin Sunday with a gigantic triple
bill provided by MGM studio. “The
MGM Story” is the most unusual
film ever made for movie fans. It’s
a cinch to impress patrons that
motion picture entertainment is the
best fun for everyone.
“Watch the Birdie" is Red SJcel
ton’s latest picture, and very pos
sibly his funniest. “Tom and Jerry
in the Hollywood Bowl,” brings the
many time Award Winners in ont
of their funniest efforts.
The next attraction will be MGM’s
“Crisis” starriAg Cary Grant and
this year’s Academy Award winner.
Jose Ferrer.

CONSTRUCTION ON
STURM BLDG. HELD
BY LACK OF PERMIT
The governor’s office, through
Acting Governor Lew M. Williams,
today contacted the National Pro
duction Board In an effort to obtain
a permit to get materials for com
pletion of the Sturm Locker plant
being built at Ninth and E streets.
The present location of the lockers
in AB hall, must be moved to make
way for the new Territorial build
ing work on which is scheduled to
start in the next few weeks.
Robert L. Hosmer, representative
of the National Production Author
ity, who was here from the Seattle
jffice a week ago, stopped work on
he new Sturm building on grounds
that Sturm had not obtained a per
mit Irom National Production Au
thority.
Hosmer, who went on to Anchor
age and Fairbanks from here, is due
back in Juneau in another week or
two. Meanwhile, it is hoped that the
permit may be obtained to avoid
added delay in construction of the
new Sturm building or the Terri
torial building to be erected on the
site of the AB hall.

UNBORN FAWNS ARE
VICTIMS WHEN TWO
BOGS KILL MOTHER
Urban Nelson, Wildlife research
biologist under the Federal Aid
propram, had in his office this
morning in the Fish and Wildlife
Service, two unborn male deer
which were taken from a doe kill
ed yesterday by dogs out the high
way. The dead doe was found ly
ing beside the road a short distance
beyond Stabler Point by Highway
Patrolman Emmett Botelho. The
fawns, Nelson said, would have
been born in May or early June.
Enforcement Agent Clarence Mat
son answered Bot.elho's report and
obtained the fawns.
Nelson added that this was the
fourth or fifth report his office has
had of dogs running deer in that
vicinity. A few days ago two dogs
chased a deer into the water at
the bathing beach. :
The Fish and Wildlife Service IS
making an appeal to dog owners |
along the highway to keep their
dogs confined and are, at the same
time, endeavoring to locate the
owners of the dogs that killed yes
terday's doe. The law provides that
after owners are notified, if they
do not confine the dser-killing
dogs the FWS, highway patrol or
“any other person” may kill the
marauders.

ALASKA LORE

Farila, Sweden, was a visitor at
the Federal building Tuesday call
ing on the Forest Service office, the
Museum and on Acting Governor
Lew M. Williams.
Viksen, besides being a natural
ist, is publisher of a magazine
Folket I Blld, in Stockholm, which
is similar to Life magazine in this
country and is also correspondent
for another publication, Magasinet

With Artin Bengt Ellis, well
known Swedish artist, Viksten came
to this country during the winter
on an expedition through Canada
and Alaska to take pictures and'
study native culture. He is author
of 3<j books on nature studies.
Two months ago he and Ellis
drove from Vancouver, B. C. to
Fairbanks over the Alaska high
way. They sold their car in Fair
banks and then visited various na
tive villages in the interior as far
as Nome. In Anchorage they called
on Swan Carlson, miner and old
time friend of Viksten’s.
Ellis, who is still in Anchorage
vicinity putting scenes of the re
gion on canvas, will join Viksten
here and tAe two will return to
Vancouver, B. C. via Petersburg,
Wrangell and Ketchikan.
Viksten expressed enthusiasm
over the beauties of Alaska and said
he had obtained many reels of
movies and hundreds of stills which
would be shown on his return to
Sweden. He said he had been es
pecially interested in stories of old
time Alaskans, many of which
would be published in his maga
zines.
