DICK POWELL AND
EVELYN KEYES STAR
IN CAPITOL'S SHOW
Dick Powell, who has spent the
past five years in pictures as a
tough "private eye,” and who can
currently be seen playing a Royal
Canadian Mounted policeman in
Sam Bischoff’s "Mrs. Mike,” which
opens tonight at the Capitol Thea
tre, through United Artists release,
has decided it is safer to sing again.
Dick originally took on the hard
boiled roles to escape being per
manently catalogued as a crooner.
Between motion picture vehicles
ind mystery roles in radio, he final
ly succeeded in getting away com
pletely from the crooner category.
However, a scene in ‘Mrs. Mike,”
which is a story of the Royal Can
adian Northwest Mounted, circa J
1907, does require that Dick sing to ;
Uvelyn Keyes. So Dick sings again
—just one song—“Rose of Tralee,”
to his co-star. Evelyn Keyes, who
plays Mrs. Mike. He sings simply,
without fanfare, because the song
is necessary to the story and—be
•ause he is glad of the opportunity
to sing.
"Mrs. Mike” is based on the fa
mous best-seller of the same title
by Benedict and Nancy Freedman.
The book has already been trans
lated in seventeen languages, in
cluding Hebrew, and almost five
million copies have been sold since
its publication in 1947, It W'as first1
serialized in Atlantic Monthly and
later condensed in Reader’s Digest
md the New York Post.

KIDS' MATINEE SAT.
AT 20TH; 'BEAUTIFUL
DOLL' IN EVENING
The regular Saturday kids ma
tinee will be presented at the reg
ular lime tomorrow. Two features
are slated to be shown in addition
to five short subjects and cartoons.
The features are “Disaster" with
Richard Denning and Trudy Mar
shall, and "Overland Trails" star
ring Johnny Mack Brown with Ray
mond Hatton in the supporting role.
The good old days in tin-pan
alley when song pluggers were wild
er than movie press agents has
been handled fondly by producer
George Jessel in his production of
“Oh, You Beautiful Doll.” the 20th
Century-Fox technicolor musical
which is scheduled to open Satur
day evening at the Gross 20th Cen
tury Theatre after the conclusion
of the children's matinee.
While the picture tells the story
of the fabulous career of Fred Fish
er, who helped usher in Jazz music
at the turn of the century, other
oldtime t song writers were given a
bow by the producer.
For sentimental reasons Jessel in
cluded a scene in “Oh, You Beau
tiful Doll” that showed pictures of
Harry Von Tilzer, Ernest R. Ball,
Paul Dresser, Jerome Kern, Con
Conrad, Walter Donaldson, Gus Ed
wards, Jimmy Monaco, Joe Howard
and Irving Berlin, all of whom were
popular at the time Fisher was
writing his tunes.
June.Haver shares starring hon
ors with Stephens in the picture
and S. Z. (Cuddles) Sakall plays
the role of song writer Fisher.

MICROSCOPIC STUDIES
BEING MADE BY FISHERY
DEPARTMENT BIOLOGIST
Bob Parker, Alaska Department ’
of Fisheries biologist, is happy with
a new Bausch and Lomb micro-1
scope recently acquired by the de-!
partment. He is making fish scale
studies which indicate the age ol
the fish, the rate of growth, time
spent in fresh water and time in
salt water.
From these studies it will be pos
sible to know how long it takes;
a salmon to reach maximum growth
and when it is the best time to \
take certain races or runs of f.th. [
ft will also be important in determ- .
ining minimum size limits lor va'r- ,
ious areas.
Sex samples taken from various;
salmon in different areas last sum
mer are being studied. These de
terminations will be of value in
learning the best spawning time.
Information gathere is being ex
changed with biologists of other
.ishery departments in Canada,
Washington, Oregon, and California.

TODAY FOR BIRTHDAY
Loyd Wright, prominent Los An

visitor, will be happy today—£is
jirthday—when he receives a new
rifle.
When Wright and Dr. W. H. Olds,
also of Los Angeles, were in Ju
neau on a yachting trip last Aug
ust, Wright admired one of Art
Skinner’s famous 30 Alaska Mag
num rifles. Olds quietly ordered
.limner to custom-make one for
Wright for delivery on December
15.
Skinner made the curly-grain
stock and flared pistol grip which |
is one of his specialties. The gun '
has a Douglas bore-honed barrel
with one twist in 12 inches. In
trial shooting the rifle shot a one
inch group at 100 yards.
Wright is the proud possessor of
a' collection of 60 modern guns.
