IN PORT; RADAR i
REPAIR IS DONE
- . i
The Pemare, a Seattle ship hold- !
ing the contract for delivery of mail
out of Seward to Kodiak and vil
lages on the Aleutian chain, was
in port for a short while yester
day for radar repair before contin- I
uing to Seward.
A part for the radar equipment1
was to have been flown here from
Seattle for installation, accord
ing to Oapt. C. C. Graham, master
of the ship. The Pomare, recently
awarded the mail contract, carries
12 passengers and 500 tons of cargo
and mail. Lasit port of call Is Um- j
nak Island, last principal island!
in the chain.
Year round service with a trip
a month is scheduled for the ves
sel. The Pomare carries a crew of
15 in addition to the master and is
owned by the Aleutian Steamship j
Company of Seattle, :
About a month ago the ship re- *
turned to Seattle because of orders
from the Coast Guard which stat- 1
ed the "certificate of inspection was
taken because of work which need- j
ed to be done on the Pomare.” On !
its first mail run the craft went |
aground near Kodiak Island but!
got free under its own power. j

PLENTY OF LAUGHS
iN FEATURE SHOW,
CAPITOL TONIGHT
There are plenty of laughs pend
ing for patrons of the Capitol The
atre where Universal-International's
"Free For All” opened yesterday.
This new offering is a hilarious girl
meets-screwball-inventor situation
and co-stars Robert Cummings and i
Ann Blyth.
Miss Blyth meets inventor Cum
mings when the young genius ar
rives in the nation's capitol to patent
his newest creation—an innocent j
appearing tablet which merely
transforms ordinary water into
I gasoline.
The inventor is befriended by
Ann’s father, played by Percy Kil
bride, patent office employee and
amateur inventor. Kilbride tries to !
nterest the war department in Cum- I
mings’ revolutionary Invention.
Cummings is threatened with the
loss of his invention when an oil
syndicate, headed by Ray Collins, J
' attempts to steal it from the in
locent inventor.
Comedy is then highlighted by a
cross country chase involving a car
tnd helicopter and ends on a happy
note with the inventor regaining
both his secret formula and the girl,
the latter from the arms of the oil
company public relations counsel, j
Donald Woods, who had tried un- :
1 successfully to involve Miss Blyth ;
in the filching of the formula.
Co-stars Cummings and Miss
Blyth are ably supported by such
performers as Percy Kilbride, Don- ;
aid Woods, Ray Collins. Mikhail
Rasumny and Dooley Wilson.
Produced by Robert Buckner from .
his orignal screenplay, “Free For
All” was directed by Charles Bar- j
ton.

TWIN SHOW BRINGS
"SHE," "POMPEII"!
TO 20TH TONIGHT
—
i
Magnificent and awe inspiring as j
spectacles, astounding in dramatic I
power and concept, Merian C. ]
Cooper's amazing productions, “The ]
Last Days of Pompeii” and "She," i
the H. Rider Haggard fantastic ad- !
venture will open tonight at the i
Gross 20th Century Theatre as a
mammoth dual bill.
Arena combats, dancing «lave
girls, luxurious banquets, pagan
rites, soldiers, nobles, demagogues j
and slaves pass in review in the <
“Last Days of Pompeii," a story of
barbaric splendor.
For sheer magnitude and breath
taking thrills, the destruction of!
Pompeii, with its fear maddened j
mobs caught between toppling walls
and rivers of molten lava, challenges
any spectacle ever filmed. Preston
Foster in a heroic role turns in one
of the best performances of his
career; Basil Rathbone as Pontius
Pilate is outstanding, and Allen
Hale is well cast in a humorous role.
The romantic interest is supplied by
Dorothy Wilson.
The strangest love story ever told
is revealed in “She.” An empress
more than two thousand years old,
yet as strikingly beautiful as the i
white hot flame which prolongs
her life, falls in love with a mortal ]
man and loses him to a mortal |
woman. Helen Gahagen, operatic
and stage star (and now a member
of Congress), is superb as the death
less beauty; Randolph Scott and
Helen Mack brilliant as the mortal
lovers.
E5CA-M0 MAKES DEBUT
AT SHELDON'S OFFICE
The “Esea-mo”, a mhneo publica
tion by, of, and, for the employees
of the Employment Security Com
mission of Alaska, made its debut
this month.
In figuring out a name for the
new baby, it was decided to use the
initials of the organization which
■omes out ESCA, and added MO
tor monthly. Research by Editor G.
P. Crisman revealed the Greeks had
i word for it "esc.!’' means “a dis
use 01 the grapevine, a drying
ip in full growth" but Crisman
icesn't knew if that applies to the
Maska type cf grapevine known as
nukluk telegraph.
Editor Crisman is assisted by
Saxon Heath Snow’, Jacque Fisher,
Ouline Sunders, Lowell Trump, Da
dd M. Riley, George Morrison and i
jeila Grunden.
