Tomorrow is the beginning of "MOVIETIME, U.SA.!" or more specifically
"MOVIETIME, JUNEAU!" We inviieyou io join us in celebraiing the 50th
Anniversary of the motion picture theatre.
We have been extremely fortunate in obtaining one of the finest pictures
ever made to begin this year-long celebration . . . none other than M. G. M.'s
"THE MAGNIFICENT YANKEE". The unfortunate part about this engagement
is that we can have it for two days only. Nevertheless, with five performances
Sunday and two on Monday we can easily entertain a great part of Juneau. We
hope the readers of this letter will take advantage of the early showings on Sun
day so as many people as possible can see this picture.
We have worried a long time about this show, trying to find ways to urge as
many people as possible to see "THE MAGNIFICENT YANKEE" because it is
one of those stories that all movie goers constantly ask for. And now that it is
here we want you to believe us that this is it! Frankly, we cannot even think
of the words to describe it to you. "THE MAGNIFICENT YANKEE" isn't ter
rific or even colossal... it's just good ... extra good ... and we feel it's com
forting to be able to write you with confidence and honesty.
Maybe, as a title, "THE MAGNIFICENT YANKEE" doesn t mean much to
you. Briefly, it brings to the screen the Washington years of one of the country's
most brilliant jurists, Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes. That s it, and you prob
ably still are not convinced that it is what you want io see. Well... you want
to see wholesome, inspiring motion pictures, don't you? Believe us, this picture
projects a humanity you seldom see on the screen. The stars, LOUIS CALHERN
and ANN HARDING recreate a life we would, give anything to live ourselves.
It's not a stuffy picture, it's unabashedly human, generous in its humor and
pathos.
Yes, we certainly have a wonderful piece of entertainment to begin another
fifty years of America s most popular form of pleasure ... THE MOVIES!
Sincerely yours,
Manager and Staff,
CAPITOL THEATRE.

ENDSTONITE!
Movielime, USA,
Comes to Juneau
With Fine Picture
Announcing local participation in
the national film jubilee known as
“It’s Movietime, U.S.A." manager
Ted Heyder of the Capitol Theatre
joins in the formal opening of what
promises to be the most distin
guished screen season in the history
of films, beginning in October.
"This year marks the golden an
niversary of the American film the
atre,” said Heyder yesterday. ‘‘Fifty
years ago the first film theatre was
built for the express purpose of
showing films. Every Hollywood
producer has garnered the best skills
on his lot, and in the cooperative
effort with every other producer and
distributor, he has come up with a
schedule of pictures which repre
sent the sum total of the best all
studios have to offer. Taken all
together, Hollywood will release in
the course of the forthcoming sea
son the very finest pictures it can
make.”
Inspired by a definite upswing at
the boxoffice during the past
months, the entire film jamboree
has been designed to follow the pub
lic’s expressed desires and demands
in screen entertainment.
"The Magnificent Yankee,” a
biography of Chief Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes, is the Capitol’s first
movietime jubilee picture.
Skagway's Days of '98
Chairman Visits Here
Plans for the visit to Juneau
Elks in November of Skagway’s1
Days of ’98 show brought Mr. and
Mrs. Maurice H. Wheaton here
this week. Wheaton is chairman of
Skagway’s Days of ’98 Committee
and plan to return with the Skag
way troup this winter.
"Best tourist season since the
war,’’ Wheaton said of Skagway’s
business this summer.
Anyone who has visited Skagway
during the tourist season has wit
nessed the “Days of ’98" show the
whole town puts on for tourists.
While the town’s show did not pro
fit greatly this year—business gen
erally from the tourists was good.
Wheaton has the production costs
on his “Days of ’98” down to the
penny. “It costs us a minimum of
$113 to put on a show. Some of the
smaller ships carry only about 100
passengers and we can never figure
on more than 75 percent of the
passenger list attending. On those
shows we lose money. But we have
a lot of fun, enjoy the people who
come to town and we think they
like our show. At least they writ#
us letters by the hundreds to tell us
so," he said.
Mr. and Mrs. Wheaton were at
the Baranof while in Juneau and
returned by plane Wednesday af
ternoon.
NINA IS BACK
Nina Baroumes, owner of Nina’s,
' a leather and hobby shop here, re
turned this week from Victoria, B.
C , where she had been called by the
illness of her 5-months-old grand
child. She reported that the baby
was all right now. She has been
gone for a month. While outside she
also visited in Eugene, Ore. She
took some orders at Timberline
Lodge at Mt. Hood for some of her
leather items and reports that she
now has a large supply of skins
for leatherwork.

DON'T FORGET - TUESDAY IS ELECTION DAY
VOTE FOR
>or City Councilman
Robert STUTTE
WE, A GROUP OF Robert Stutte’s Friends, are asking your sup
port for this candidate as one of six Councilmen to be
elected next Tuesday, We are sure you, too, would vote
for him if you knew Robert Stutte as well as we do.
THIS IS HIS FIRST venture into politics. HE doesn’t call it
“politics", but feels that, in running for the office of City
Councilman, he is accepting a civic duty.
HE IS A VETERAN OF World War II. He has lived in Juneau
for six years. He is a member of the firm of Stutte and
Son, Contractors. (He is the younger of the “Father and
Son” team). He is a property owner, a tax payer, the
father of two children. He wants Juneau to be a good town in
which to bring up those children.
SINCE HE HAS LIVED in Juneau he has taken an active part
in the town’s affairs. He is a member of Juneau’s Volun
teer Fire Department, an Elk, a member of the Veterans’
Council.
HIS PROGRAM, if elected, is that of the People’s Progressive
Ticket.
BECAUSE OF HIS experience in building, in various civic activi
ties, in fraternal and veteran affairs, we beleive he will
be a valuable addition to Juneau’s City Government.
A Vole for Robert Slulte Is a Vole for
GOOD GOVERNMENT
